A college education to prepare for the future is the keynote for 12 northwest area outstanding seniors who will be graduated from public high schools during midyear commencement. The field of engineering has been selected by three of the students, with the remainder anticipating careers in varied fields.

Other ambitions of the students include geologist, teacher, pilot, lawyer, pharmacist, artist, hotel or restaurant owner, and major league baseball player. Of the group, 11 students definitely plan to attend college, with one considering higher education. Adds 10 Nonstop Trains The Bensenville officials re ferred to the ICC when a reply to its letter to the railroad at first was not received.

Since then the railroad has con tacted the village board and has started an engineering study, Van Mol added. Village officials advised the railroad the community wants automatic remote control gates at the crossings. Present facilities include flashers and revolving stop signs. The TULEY four intersections where gates are being sought are at York and Church rds. and Addison and Center sts.

The suburb started a cam paign for the gates in Novem FOREMAN ber after Union Pacific trains began using the Milwaukee railroad facilities thni Bensenville.

The study now being conducted by railroad engineers includes a icount of vehicles and pedestrians crossing the intersections, and the visibility near the crossings.
