FEWER RABID DOGS More than 30,000 animal bites were recorded in Illinois last year, and each of the animals could have been a rabies carrier. Each year 60 per cent of the state's counties report at least one case of animal rabies which, Dr. Paul Doby of the agriculture department believes, "could be diminished if counties would initiate stricter stray dog control and selectively reduce certain types of wildlife, such as skunks." Doby, superintendent of the division of meat, poultry and livestock inspection, said that of the 11 human rabies fatalities recorded in the United States for 1964-71, four occurred after exposure to rabid skunks. Skunks have replaced dogs as the number one rabies carrier in Illinois. Control efforts in the state have reduced the number of rabid dogs from 400 a year in 1954 to an average of 10.. Since 1953 required inoculation has reduced reported canine rabies in the United States from 5688 cases to 185 in 1970 and 235 in 1971. Communities throughout Illinois were encouraged to organize Bicentennial com­ mittees and develop programs in observance of the United States Bicentennial at the Illinois Bicentennial Forum last week in Springfield. The Illinois Bicentennial com­ mission was created by the state legislature in 1972 to plan and coordinate Illinois' com­ memoration of the 200th an­ niversary of American in­ dependence. "America's In­ ventive Genius," the first Illinois project to be approved by the American Revolution Bicentennial oomtnission, is expected to be the nation's p r i n c i p a l b i c e n t e n n i a l exhibition on the origin, development and impact of American science and in­ dustry, accprding to Dr. Victor J. Danilov, vice president of Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry, in charge of the project.
