DOROTHY FELLOWS Dorothy "Dot" Fellows, nee Zielke, 62, of 5605 N. Bunny, Pistakee Highlands, died Sunday, May 27. She was born Dec. 9, 1916 in Chicago, and had been an area resident for twenty-five years, and was formerly from Chicago. She and her husband, Harold "Red" Fellows, owned and operated Fellows Die and Manufacturing company, Wauconda, and the deceased served as the secretary- treasurer of the company. The lush June season with its plentiful grass and warm days inspires oodles of promotion among those involved in dairying. June Dairy month is a long time traditional attention- getting period, and this year activities in McHenry county find many outlets to remind consumers the No. 1 point: Milk is a good food value in terms of dollars spent and calories consumed. "In other words," sum­ marizes pretty Karrie Marunde, McHenry County Dairy Princess, "we want people to know about the good taste of milk and dairy products, and to realize they should include milk as an in­ tegral part of any well- balanced, nutritious diet." This is a special year for the McHenry County Dairy Promotion council, the organization of volunteers that coordinates and develops various promotional activities involving dairy products throughout the year. The annual dairy banquet June 28 will mark the twenty- fifth year for this organization founded in 1954 by Virgil Smith, Don Peasley and Walter Schuett, Sr. At that time the efforts of farmer cooperatives, farm organizations, restaurant and store owners, county school officials, news media personnel and grocery store managers-to mention a few groups involved- -were coordinated for a united effort. Smith, who was manager of the Farm Bureau at that time, recalled last week that the price being paid farmers was unusually low in the mid-1950's and the first major promotional effort was to encourage the purchase of milk by the gallon.' For that purpose Kurt Waniek, encouraged by She also belonged to All Saints Lutheran church, Fox Lake. Survivors include her husband, Harold; two sons, Roger (Mary), of Pistakee Highlands and Kenneth (Bertha) of Fresno, Calif.; six grandchildren; three brothers, Otto of Cicero, Fred of Arizona, and George of Chicago. He was preceded in death by his sister, Mae Conroy. Visitation was Tuesday at the K. K. Hamsher funeral home, where services are scheduled for 2 p.m. Wednesday. In­ terment will follow at Highland Memorial Park, Libertyville. Peasley and Smith, created a symbol still used today-a long­ haired blonde beauty extolling the virtues of a gallon of milk! A second early • promotion was to encourage schools and restaurants to install bulk milk dispensing machines. A display was erected at the McHenry Marine Day festival as well as at the McHenry County fair, where George Menard, a major Chicago television and radio personality -at that time, assisted with interviews on the popular "Farmtown, U.S.A." This television show was sponsored by farmers and was aired in prime time by that station still searching for a good program format. The show was popular and in­ formative to the consumer. In addition to helping obtain Dairy Princess candidates for the 1979 contest, Karrie will be kept on the run for several days during June. She'll begin June by delivering dairy baskets to the mothers of the first June babies at the county's three hospitals, respectively. The candidates and Karrie will take part in the Harvard Milk day parade, riding the float being built by Ward Plane and his committee. A luncheon for the news media personnel is planned June 7 when Bill Lenschow, member of the nationally- influential Associated Milk Producers, Inc. board, will talk. One topic sure to come up will be the increase of dairy imports in the Tokyo round of multilateral trade negotiations- -to the benefit of grain and livestock producers. Karrie and the Dairy Princess will make radio ap­ pearances during the month at various radio stations. A traditional appearance continuing this year is the visit to the McHenry County board June 19. The Dairy Princess candidates will serve cheese and milk during the mid- morning "milk break." It's another recognition of the continuing importance of the dairy industry to McHenry county where 155 million pounds of milk are produced annually. With 14,200 dairy cows, McHenry county ranks fourth in the state among the m a j o r d a i r y - p r o d u c i n g counties. The twenty-fifth anniversary June 28 Dairy banquet will be held at Andre's in Richmond starting at 7:30 p.m. Chuck Weingart is banquet chairman and Del Borhart is ticket chairman. Tickets may be obtained through the Farm Burea and from Dairy Promotion council members. by Gerry Johnson SERVICE NEWS Retires From Navy mkiiv I i SENIOR CORPSMAN D'ANGELO Joe D'Angelo, a resident of McHenry, retired from the U.S. Navy as a Senior Chief Hospital Corspman having served 21 years active duty. Ceremonies were held on April 30, 1979, at the Naval Regional Medical center in Great Lakes, 111., where he has been stationed since July, 1974. His career has taken him to combat duty in Vietnam twice and many other countries abroad, as well as numerous states here at home. He was stationed at several naval hospitals and just before coming to Great Lakes he served with the Underwater Demolition Team 21 and Seal Team 2 for a period of seven years. • He resides in McHenry with his wife, Marilyn ana two children, Terry and David. He has another son and daughter- in-law, Joe and Gerianne also living in McHenry. He plans to pursue his own b u s i n e s s o f m a n u f a c t u r i n g nautical and ceramic decor. State Department figures S74 billion owed to U.S. Man 91 Helps Older Persons Hugo Cohn of New York City has been working hard since he graduated from Co­ lumbia University in 1909 with a degree in engineer­ ing. And at 91 years of age, he has no intention of stop­ ping. "I went into semi-retire­ ment fr)r a few years," Cohn told a writer from The Na­ tional Council on the Aging, '"but after my wife died, I felt the need to keep busy so I found something to oc­ cupy myself full-time." What he found was vol­ unteer work in the Mayor's Office on Aging which even­ tually became the New York City Department for the Aging. "I was a volunteer for so many years that they in­ sisted I get paid for my work," Cohn said with a laugh. As a program specialist, Cohn supervises senior cen­ ters that provide food and recreation. He also acts as a technical assistant on such things as buildings and equipment. "I'm sort of a Good Man Friday," he said. Cohn began his profes­ sional life by going into business for himself in elec­ trical construction. As time went by he branched out in several directions, ulti­ mately becoming somewhat of a pioneer in the electrical field. "1 manufactured things like arc welding equipment and x-ray machines," he said. In 1922 he went into electronics, remaining in the field until 1954 when he sold the business to a large corporation. "I intended to retire when I sold the business," he said, "but after I traveled for a few years I became a con­ sulting engineer. I've always had the urge to keep myself occupied, preferably in a useful fashion." He acted as a consultant to several large corporations and eventually became a consultant to the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA). Cohn continued as a con­ sultant until his wife died and he went to work for the Mayor's Office on Aging. When he is not working, Cohn enjoys playing the piano and listening to other kinds of music. He also en­ joys reading, although that pastime is limited because of his eyesight. He does manage to keep up with the electronics field by reading the technical magazines and is a member of several tech­ nical societies. As for Cohn's plans for the future, they remain pretty much the same, ex­ cept for one thing. "I'd like to cut down my work day to seven hours," he said. "It would be so nice to avoid the subway at rush hour." A SOVIET demographer claims that better health care could give an average extra 13 years of life to qpen and an extra 10 to wonjen. Prolonging life would $ely on good medical care tojre- duce early death from acci­ dents, heart attacks, respjra- tory diseases or damage to the central nervous system. This would bring the aver­ age lifespan up to around 80. To raise life expectancy to around 90, doctors would have to find ways of slowing down the aging process. A life expectancy of over 100 will not be achieved until the 21st century, Professor Boris Urlanis believes. Pro­ fessor Urlanis believes .that living to be over 100 ;<can only come about as a result of genetic engineering ;and widespread spare parts sur­ gery. •*; Life expectancy is no longer increasing at a rapid rate. Despite medical prog­ ress, the professor ndtes that cardio-vascular diseases among men in middle ^ge, resulting in premature death, have increased dramatically. GROUP LIVING for older persons is gaining in popularity as an alternative to the conventional housing patterns or institutionaliza­ tion. So far, there has been little government suppbrt for this type of housing,'Al­ though it has such advan­ tages as lower costs for serv­ ices provided to the gr^up than if each resident paid for such services as house­ keeping and transportation. Who Can You Tru»t? •' "You can't trust anybody these days," Harry jcommented, "just this morning, my grocer gave me a phony quarter. " "Let' s see it, "John requested. "I can't," replied Harry, "I bought a paper with it at the drugstore." < Introducing seasonal electric rates that will help us all save energy Traditionally, our customers have paid a uniform rate year 'round lor the amount ol elec­ tricity used. But these aren't traditional times. Energy conservation is a national policy. A necessity. And we believe the new seasonal rates will help conserve electricity. Although a unilorm annual rate is easier to understand, it doesn't relate to the cost of producing electricity. Costs are usually lower in winter as well as in the early spring and late tall, when more of your electricity comes from nuclear stations with lower generating costs. But they're higher in air conditioning season when demand lor electricity is greater Then, additional higher <bost coal and oil must be used to meet this increased demand. Before, with a uniform annual rate of 4.3c per kilowatt-hour, there was less incentive to hold down use in summer when con­ servation was most needed. Now your electric rate will be higher in sum­ mer and lower during the rest of the year. For the four summer months, it will be 4.9c per kwh and then drop to 4C per kwh for the next eight months. JANUARY ktlowatt-ho ux MAY -hour SEPTEMBER FEBRUARY kUowatt-houx JUNE OCTOBER 4« kilowatt-hour For the average residential customer, the rates will balance out and the total annual cost will be the same. But for the customer who watches summer energy use closely, there's an opportunity to save energy and money. If you have an air conditioner, you now have an added incentive to keep the thermo­ stat at an energy saving 78° Also to clean the filter regularly. To keep storm doors and windows in place all year long. To pull blinds on sunny days. To limit hours of use. Or if you're planning to buy an air conditioner, select a machine with a high-energy-efficiency ratio (EER of 8 or higher). Lowering summer demand for electricity will reduce the need for new investment. And that will help slow the rise in electric rates in the years ahead. There are 101 additional ways to conserve energy that we'd like to share with you. You'll find them in "The Waste Watcher's Guide!'
