Raymond Mostek, President of the Ilinois Audubon Society, has called 
on all friends of our wooded acres, the birds and wildlife that they shelter, 
to protest this demolition of one of the few such fine areas that remain. 
Illinois citizens, who have almost unanimously applauded President Johnson’s 
successful efforts toward a ‘“‘beautiful America’’ should not permit one of their 
most beautiful virgin woodlands to be destroyed, especially when its des- 
truction is the result of badly advised planning by one of our own governing 
boards! 
Persons who care are urged by the Illinois Audubon Society, by the 
Illinois Chapter of Nature Conservancy and other groups cooperating with 
the Committee for the Preservation of the Montgomery Arboretum, to make 
their voices heard before it is too late. The only legal authority to prevent 
this wanton destruction lies in the Board of Governors of State Colleges and 
Universities, Springfield, Illinois, and Governor Kerner. The Board’s Chair- 
man is Mr. Paul Stone, Sullivan; its members from Northern Illinois who 
should be particularly concerned are: Mr. Morton H. Hollingsworth, 1309 
Glenwood Ave., Joliet; Mr. William E. McBride, 1344 No. Sandburg Terrace, 
Apt. 706, Chicago; Dr. W. I. Taylor, Rt. #5, Lake Canton, Canton- ir nae 
Stipes, Jr., 804 W. University Ave., Champaign; Dr. Noble J. Puffer, 155 So. 
Ela Road, Barrington, and Mr. Richard J. Nelson, 2027 Hawthorne Lane, 
Evanston.
