3 (1-t-1r1hn) lo n1 'A oe 11 It takes the Kosher Process to make a Kosher chicken There is no substitute for quality enhanced by the Kosher Process Sophisticated consumers know the difference asking themselves "Who is Annie Ackerman?" they quickly learned the answer: a David to their Goliath She and her army didn't quit until they had won the battle all the way through the State Leg' islature at Tallahassee And she was seen more than coiffed hatted and catching the 6 am flight to the state capital Still operating and still fighting for that sewer plan the Pollution Revolution is an amorphous group of people primarily senior citizens who rally behind various causes Its nucleus is a dis- cussion group at Point East which Mrs Acker- man leads weekly -z 1 "We discuss the issues Those who want to act 4 either pro or con on something particular say so 1 1 and act as individuals But when there is an issue 1 on which we have a general consensus we take 1 strong action as a group" In the case of Nixon's health-care plan they I drew up a list of congressmen from throughout the I country mimeographed a few sample letters then i wrote not only to their own congressmen but to 4 relatives and friends back home urging that they write also "We have begun an avalanche of an unbroken I chain of letters" Mrs Ackerman says 1 She explains that she'll continue to spread the word about the letter-writing campaign 1 through the lectures and book reviews she pres1 ents almost daily to condominium clubs in North Dade and South Broward "I've been a speaker for 4 35 years" she says proudly "and I always get in a I word or two about the issues" 1 One suspects that the books she reviews are I chosen as springboards for those words about the 1 issues: White's The Making of the President 1972 1 Mitchell's The Covenant Pearson's The Presi1 dent Margaret Truman's biography of Harry Truman Packard's A Nation of Strangers With her lectures and book reviews and the demands of the Pollution Revolution Mrs Ackerman is as busy as most persons with full-time jobs And the question comes naturally: what does Irving Ackerman think of his wife's activities? She calls and he comes whistling from the next room "Ask him" she says "Those involvements which don't take her away from home are perfectly all right" he says I with a grin "providing they don't encroach on my I time meaning evenings holidays Saturdays and Sundays During the day I have my own activities" His activities she says include playing devil's advocate on her issues He demurs "I wouldn't go so far as to say that She always has the Utopian approach I have the realistic viewpoint What's important is that she gets that viewpoint" Their social activities are contained almost entirely within the boundaries of Point East they explain There are formal parties and bridge and dancing and casual drop-in visits with neighbors Then there are their three children and eight grandchildren Kay 32 lives in nearby Plantation Annette 38 and Allen 36 both live in Chicago The senior Ackermans thought for awhile after his retirement that they'd live half of every year in Chicago themselves It was an idea they quickly abandoned "We worried about our property there the damage it might suffer while we were gone in winter" he says "And we found that our friends there have their own lives their own social functions and it was difficult to relate when we were there for only a short time" 1 "You have to sink roots wherever you are" she ihterjects "And there is no question we have sunk roots here This is our home now" Mr TROPIC May191974 EMI' Inc 1974 SPECIR rel KOSHER Empire TEitigg POULTRY tsLefes 711J St?
