Bing Crosby Selected Wildlife Week Chairman Bing Crosby, an avid out- doorsman and conservationist as well as the most successful singer in the history of recorded music, has been named honorary chairman of 1976's National Wildlife week, to be observed from March 14 through 20. "Save Our Wetlands" will be the theme of the thirty-ninth annual observance of the "week," first proclaimed by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1938 and sponsored since then by the National Wildlife federation. More than 10 million students, teachers, and members of conservation. groups are expected to par ticipate in the nation-wide observance, according to Thomas L. Kimball, executive vice-president of the NWF. Crosby, who has sold more than 400 million records and starred in sixty motion pictures, was named chairman this year, Kimball said, "because he has demonstrated over many years a deep ap preciation of nature and un derstanding of the problems involved in maintaining a healthy and abundant wildlife population. As one of America's most beloved citizens, he is eminently qualified to help us explain to the country the importance of saving our wetlands." Accepting the chairmanship, Crosby heartily endorsed the "Save Our Wetlands" theme. In an "inaugural" statement he said: "America's wetlands-her tidal marshes, salt flats, ponds, river bottomlands, and swamps-are a priceless and productive natural resource. They provide habitat for a great variety of wildlife, produce an abundance of plant life, help purify our air and water, and protect us from flood and storm damage. They are also beautiful to see. And yet, many Americans still regard wetlands as watery wastelands-valuable only when drained and 'improved' with man-made structures. "The aim of National Wildlife week this year is to stop needless and reckless destruction of our wetlands. To do this, we must educate Americans of all ages to the fact that these lands are not only valuable but irreplaceable. Man can destroy in a day-but he can never reproduce-a wetland that it has taken nature thousands of years to create. And so, if we are to preserve this part of our American heritage for future generations, we must enlist all Americans in this campaign to Save Our Wetlands." As one of his duties, Crosby will record a number of save- our-wetlands messages to be used by TV and radio stations as public service an nouncements. In his radio and TV "spots" Crosby will offer free pamphlets on the wetlands problem to citizens who write the National Wildlife Federation at 1412 16th St. N.W., Washington, D.C. 20036. The Veterans administration pays out more than $7.5 billion annually in compensation and pension benefits to 5.5 million veterans and survivors. have a nice weekend... .. .forgive a fault A new era in home climate control begins About forty-five years ago, scientists began developing a revolutionary heat ing device that uses the heat of the earth's atmosphere. They called it a heat pump. Today, it is the only commercially available heating system that provides an answer to shrinking supplies of fuel oil and gas. How the heat pump works. Basically, the heat pump moves heat from one place to another. Using elec tricity to run the device, it extracts heat from a limitless source--the heat in out door air. During winter, enough heat remains in the air--even on the coldest and cloudiest days--to be extracted by the pump and transferred indoors as clean, flameless heat. And during warm weather, the process automatically reverses, removing excess indoor heat and humidity--like an air conditioner. Belter efficiency. In short, the heat pump does the job of both a furnace and an air conditioner. But there's an important difference. The heat pump produces more than IV2 units of,heat energy for every unit it consumes. That's better efficiency than any other current heating system. lt& ready. It's ideal for new homes because it won't be obsolete in ten years. It's not depend ent on the fossil fuels that may not be available in the future. To the homeowner, that means significant long-term savings on heating costs. The heat pump is a big step in the conservation of scarce fuels. And here in northern Illinois, the electricity you would use to capture the heat comes mainly from coal and nuclear energy, rather than scarce oil and gas. To get the full advantages of the heat pump, it's important to get a quality prod uct, properly installed and reliably serv iced. For the name of qualified installers in your area, call G. W.
