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

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.”

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.
