WAR ON WHITE PENNIES MAKES HIM HAFIW ST. PAUL (UP)—John J. Feckey carired on a private war against "whito” pennies for thr e years. Feckey said he figured he’d won his fight. With 32,700 of the liglft-color-ed coins stashed away in a giant whiskey display bottle, Feckey called it quits and cashed In on his crusade. He didn't like the pennies and the customers on his milk route didn't like them either. To often, they mistook them for dimes. So Feckey undertook to retire all he could from circulation. By the time the whiskey bottle was filled, the milkman hail 225 pounds of coins. The Feekeys turned the pennies in at a hank and used the exchange to buy a television set The Federal Reserve bank retired the pennies for good. There was only one catch Feckey and his wife had to wrai every cent in paper rolls of 5F per roll before the bank wouh take them.
