To Cure Polio Viciims Dimes Campaign Begins Monday Numbe With the opening date of the 1951 March of Dimes only six days off, Homer T. Blackhurst, campaign director, called upon all residents to join the all-out drive for funds needed to stem the ris ing tide of polio. “The 1951 March of Dimes be gins next Monday,” Blackhurst says, “and lasts a little over two weeks. But in that short time we can help thousands upon thousands of polio patients for whom recovery is measured in terms of 10 or 20 or 50 weeks if not longer. I think we owe them the two weeks of Rio Grande Club Picture Scheduled The Rio Grande Valley A&M Club will have its picture for the 1951 Aggieland made on the steps of the Agriculture building Wed nesday afternoon, January 10, at 5:00. Military students will wear No. 1 uniforms and non-military stu dents will wear coats and ties. The regular club meeting will be Thursday, January 11, at 7:30 in room 2-d in the Memorial Student Center. The results of the Christmas Dance will be the major topic of discussion at the meeting. our effort.” 100,000 Stricken Blackhurst disclosed that more than 100,000 were stricken by polio in the years 1948-50, with four out of five of them receiving help in whole or in part from the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, on whose behalf the March of Dimes is conducted. “Last Fall,” Blackhurst said, “the National Foundation ran out of epidemic aid funds and had to call upon whatever chapters were still solvent to bolster its central epidemic emergency account, on behalf of chapters whose resources had been wiped out. From May through August of last year, chap ters were drawing $1,000,()()() a month from the epidemic aid fund.” Ma Im I Research Propect Patient care, Blackhurst empha sized, is but one phase of the fight against polio. The March of Dimes’ most important job is to support scientific research aimed at find ing a preventive or cure for polio, and to underwrite programs of pro fessional education designed to pro vide for more skilled hands. “I am sure the citizens of Bra- County will give, and give again, on behalf of those) children and adults who look to the March of Dimes for help when polio strikes.” * •• • • Nobody can prevent accidents- except drivers. Boy Scouts Give Homeless Negro Family Clothes, Aid On Dec. 30, all seemed hopeless to the family of Johnnie Young, an employee of the A&M hospital, when fire com pletely destroyed their home in College Hills. All of their possessions were lost, save the clothes they were wearing, but thanks to the campaign sponsored by the Boy Scouts of Troop 102, the family is on the road to re covery. Scouts, sponsored by the College Station Kiwanis, cov ered the city and secured a large supply of clothes for the Young family, which includes five children ages 18 months to eight years. The family still needs clothes and furniture badly how ever and the Boy Scouts have asked the citizens to aid this family by donating clothes and discarded furniture. College Station residents in a position to help this “good deed” pro ject are to contact Scoutmaster C. W. Manning at 4-4704 or 4-1290. The Scouts will pick-up and deliver all contri butions donated.
