Irene Puts Down Her Pen Irene Adams Rieger, social writer for the Woodstock Sentinel for twenty-two years, is setting aside her writing tools to enjoy some free time. This personable lady with the friendly voice began writing when she and her late first husband were members of the Northern Illini Bowmen, and Irene took care of the publicity for the organization. Around this time, Irene's aunt, Ann Frisbee, who had written for years for the Elgin Courier, became ill and asked Irene to help her out. After writing personals for Ann for a year, Irene was contacted by Don Boswell, circulation manager from Woodstock, who approached her about writing newsy items. Shortly after this, in 1960, Van sells asked her to do local social items and hospital notes for the Waukegan News. Irene remembers that the first McHenry wedding she wrote up was Lee and Carol Cooney's, and weddings, of late years, have averaged a dozen a week through the summer months. She had made her bridal contacts through local photographers, and has kept running files of all the weddings and obituaries she has written. When asked how many these might add up to, she replies with a laugh, "too many to count!" In 1965, when Irene was widowed, the demand of deadlines, the constant con­ tacts of her job, and the friendships formed through these connections helped to sustain her through what were, in her own words "some very dark days". Irene's regular calling schedule once saved her life. Each morning at 9 a.m., she would call funeral directors for local obituaries. During the week in question, she had been feeling extremely ill. Starting the wash in the basement, she felt as though she might pass out; so she came upstairs to make her regular calls before lying down. Contacting the first funeral director ott the phone, she kiddingly said,'"If1 pass out while we're talking, come and get me!" She promptly passed out, and when help arrived, it was discovered that there were lethal fumes entering the home through faults in the chiipney When Irene began working strictly for the Sentinel', She expanded her coverage JO1 in­ clude publicity writing and rewriting for many local organizations. She had gaved articles for people for whom she had written, and, in one instance, helped Pearl Cooper compile her award-winning Press Book for the American Legion auxiliary, by saving these articles. And so, this lady whose motto was once "Write something every day", will now "S^tend more time accompanyiflgJher husband, Paul Rieger,'to1 trap shooting competitions'/'and adding shooting trophies (B a prized collection of archery trophies.
