DAILY PRESS, Newport News. Saturday, April 12, 1975 Area Deaths And Funerals 'Possum May Become Illinois State Animal DEATH NOTICES ACREE, L. R. as the state animal of Illinois brought joy to Marissa, especially to 60 fifth graders who launched the opossum trial balloon. Dunn's bill asked for the election of an official state animal and nominated the possum to take its place alongside the violet, the cardinal, the oak, and fluoride as Illinois emblems.

Dunn cited several reasons IllinoLsians ought to be proud to be called "possum admirers." "A possum is much smarter than he sometimes looks," Dunn said. "When he is scared or frustrated he just stalls and often the enemy goes away, thinking him dead." Dunn also pointed out that "playing possum" is a trait that might help many persons, including lawmakers. He said that the animal resides in every county in Illinois, including Cook, which includes Chicago where zookeepers say they are flooded with possums found in city garages, under porches, and in trees. It was unquestionably one of the earliest Illinois settlers since scientists say the opossum is a prehistoric animal essentially unchanged for 130 million years, Dunn said. He added that already 18 fellow legislators have agreed to co-sponsor his possum bill and that he hopes it can be passed before summer adjournment.

Fifth graders at Marissa launched the campaign shortly after Groundhog Day when one youngsters wondered that if a groundhog had a day, why not the possum. The fifth graders now have a possum flag and pledge allegiance to the possum each day after giving the pledge of allegiance to the American flag. They have a possum mascot named "Pogo" and have established "Possum Headquarters" at the school. Charles Baines Charles Hobson Baines, 76, 26 Duncan Drive, Hampton, died Friday at home after a long illness. A native and lifelong resident of Hampton, he was a member of Calvary Assembly of God and was retired in May, 1962, as general foreman of the general car department of CO Railway with 40 years of service.

Ford Praises Astronauts, Space Program WASHINGTON (UPI) -President Ford praised the nation's space program Friday and paid tribute to the Skylab space station astronauts for returning invaluable information about space.

The President presented the National Space Club's Goddard Memorial Trophy to Col. Gerald P. Carr, who commanded the third crew to visit the orbiting space station in 1973. Carr received the award on behalf of all nine Skylab pilots at a brief White House Ceremony. "It's a reward for the faith that the American people have in what we have to do looking skyward, down the road, for a bigger and better world in which we can all live," Ford said.

The President said he was a complete believer in the accomplishment of "a good forward, visionary space program for America." He said the space station, now abandoned in orbit, was a great accomplishment that proves man can live in space. He also said the thousands of photographs and many miles of data tape brought back from three Skylab missions produced information that is invaluable. "We know a great deal more about space as a result," Ford said. Astronauts Charles P. Conrad, Joseph P.

Kerwin and Paul J. Weitz carried out the first Skylab mission, spending four weeks in orbit. Allan L. Bean, Owen K. Garriott and Jack R.

Lousma were next to visit the orbiting laboratory, staying eight weeks. Carr, Edward G. Gibson and William R. Pugue followed and set a space endurance record of 12 weeks, returning to Earth Feb. 8, 1974.

The trophy, a half-life-size bust of Dr. Robert H. Goddard, "father of American rocketry," is awarded annually by the space club for great achievement in advancing the nation's space programs. Ford read the trophy's citation which praised the astronauts for "their exceptional accomplishment in the Skylab program. They demonstrated that men can live and work in space for an extended period.

They established the unquestioned preeminence of the U.S. in space exploration." PATTERN 8305 818 This "swingy-style" is so pretty with its round yoke and flared skirt! No. 8305 with Photo-Guide is in Sizes 8 to 18. Size 10, 32 bust 3 yards 45-inch. Patterns available only in sizes shown.
