N r 400 APPLAUD JUDY RICH AS DAW PRINCES! (Continued from page 1) Miss Rich is concentrating on another of her many activities- she's finishing a dress for the 4-H fashion revue next weekl Sewing is one of her hobbies- It's more thill a hobby, really, since she's earned honors in clothing and has been a coun­ ty 4-H model at the state fair. Knowledgeable in foods, she /served as the county 4-H dem­ onstration representative in foods st the state fair also. For the past three years, Judy and other members of the Har­ vard Prairie Toppers and Hum­ ming Sewers have taken part in the American Dairy Associa­ tion of Illinois promotion con- testfcvto^booet dairy products during June. This knowledge, plus promotional effort at the' county fair in cooperation with the McHenry County Dairy Pro­ motion council and 4-H clubs, has helped Judy gain pose and know-how required of a Dairy Princess. Rumer-up candidates are from Harvard also and have been active in the same pro­ jects as Judy, working with ~ the same 4-H clubs and taking part in fair-time promotion. Carol Carlson, 18, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Roy Carlson, was first runner-up, and Su­ san Wells, 17, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Stuart Wells, was second runner-up. The dairy banquet attracted almost 400 people and was a pleasant setting for the wind- up of the major June Dairy Month efforts for most par­ ticipants. Ralph Nichols, He­ bron dairyman who is pres­ ident, reviewed Dairy Promo­ tion council goals since its start in 1954: Better markets for termers; better business for the dairy industry; and better health for consumers. He listed several activities during the past year, which in­ cludes supplying news media with accounts of dairy promo­ tional efforts; participating in demonstrations at the fair, and sponsoring the dairy press lun­ cheon for the visit of the Ill­ inois Dairy Princess. In-store promotion and sponsoring the county Dairy Princess in the state contest this August are among other efforts of the Dairy Promotion Council. Featured speaker was Joseph Crabb, president of the First Bank of Harvard..

Tay­ lor, of 410 Dunbar, found the child's body in the water be­ neath the pier. < - I The Cary fire department tried to revive Terrie. Dr. W. W.
