That»s the opinion of the Mayor's Finance Committee which this week made its final report to Mayor Charles Coletta. Ross Downing, chairman of the committee that has been working five months, noted that St, Johns jas a governmental unit "currently needs an additional $156,000 in total annual revenue if it is to oper­ ate its several departments efficiently and provide the type of ser­ vice which a progressive city should offer to its residents . , . *It is not within the scope of our assignment to recommend the 113th Year, No. 7 ST.

THE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDED that the additional revenue, ...including! bond issues should be spread among the several city departments in the follow­ ing manner: • . Mobile equipment $50,000; police department $22,000j parks and recreation $24,000; department of public works $50,000; and administration $10,000.

But through it all came Kris Patterson, winning five times and edging out runner-up Ronald Droste by two feet in the final race to become the 1968 Clinton County Soap Box Derby champion. He was instantly a hero to all the other boys. ; Despite a record number of cars, the derby race went unbelievably smooth'and 86 heats of races were run in about three hours time.

The word barbecue lias a. number of .meanings and the sensitive stomachs of the American public have long been inured to the chef's interpretation of what "to barbecue* actually stands for. The transtlve verb "barbecue" is to:. 1) Roast or broil an animal whole; 2) Prepare meat or fish by broiling,' cutting into thin* slices and putting into highly seasoned sauce made from the drippings; or 3) Prepare sliced or chopped meat with barbecue sauce. Please note that no .definition calls for the application of barbecue sauce during the cooking process. In my experience, basting during cooking and applying sauce after cooking brings forth real barbecue.; Sometimes no sauce is needed and that rule is followed, in'today's cooking adventure^ barbecued chicken, Regular or Lo-Cal SELECT PLUMP FRYERS (2 l/2 pounds is the ideal size) and have your butcher cut into halves. In planning for guests,x you'll be wise to provide a half chicken per person. Prepared in this fashion," the chicken will be consumed at about this rate.

Wash the chickens in. cold water and allow to stand while you prepare the baste. Squeeze six fresh limes and add to the juice enough pepper FAYGO vinegar to make 8 ounces. In a sauce pan melt two quarters of butter (also 8 ounces). When the butter is melted turn off the heat and add the lime juice and vinegar plus a generous dash of Mei Yen seasoning. Prepare your charcoal fire and allow it to be well burned down. One of the worst mistakes you can make is to try to broil chicken quickly.lt just doesn't work. ' Salt the chicken halves lightly on both sides and when the fire is ready, place the chicken cut side down first. KRAFT Let the chicken cook for about 15 minutes, then turn and brush on the lime-juice-butter combination. Baste each time you turn the chicken about every' 15 minutes. Cooking time should be one hour with your grill about 4 inches from the fire to start. '^s CHEESE WHIZ In the last quarter hour you may wish to lower the grill and turn1 the chicken more often to assure even browning and to get on as much of the baste as possible. The ltme and Mei Yen lend PARKAY SOFT a piquant taste ;to charcoaled chicken and bring out all the flavor of the fowl. 1 lb. If you have apple wood available and like a light touch of smoke then place some wood around the edges of the fire while MARGARINE Pkg. cooking. In my opinion you won't need a barbecue sauce and I don't' recommend it for chicken cooked this way. Serve the chicken with tossed salad, with oil and vinegar T^ KRAFT dressing, and chunks of french bread. 1 Pt.2 0z. BAR-B-Q SAUCE Bottle
