Simon blasts mine safety attitudes in Congress
U S Rep. Paul Simon says a hollow go through the motions attitude among federal mine inspectors is raising fatalities. He cites staffing, morale, and enforcement declines, noting 126 miners died in 1980 and 155 in 1981 while inspector numbers have fallen to about 800 nationwide.

Herrin Park Board approved a resolution giving police jurisdiction over Herrin Park District property. Debbie Maeser said prior to now the district’s separate governance blocked enforcement.

Judy Pottorff and Gib Jttorff were named pool managers for the coming year, receiving 70 percent of gross income with expenses paid, while the district keeps 30 percent.
