Coaches
(Continued from Page 3)
But Todd may not be interested
in the job, even if it is offered. He
has a ranch near Crowell in the
Panhandle, and might prefer to
stay within driving distance of
home.
Smith, highly successful coach
at East Texas State Teachers col
lege who I’ecently resigned, has al
ready announced that he would he
interested in coming here. His
record of 29 straight wins at East
Texas definitely is a good selling
point when they get around to pick
ing George’s successor.
A total of about 18 or 20 coaches
have been interviewed, and who the
final choice will be, is anybody’s
guess right now.
Mothers—will call at every home
where the porch is lighted, in
dicating the family’s desire to give
to the anti polio crusade.
Each area of the city has been
divided into districts with a cap
tain heading each district. Rural
areas are being organized by Mrs.
•L O. Alexander and Miss Emily
Ritter.
“These districts will lie further
divided into sections which will be
headed by lieutenants,” Mrs. Perry
said.
Each volunteer who wishes to
participate by working in her own
block is requested to telephone the
captain in her district and give her
name, address and telephone num
ber, said Mrs. Perry. The volun
teers will then he contacted by a
lieutenant.
“This year is victory year in our
polio campaign,” she said.
Thousands of children through
out the country will be innoculated
with a new serum that is better
than gamma globin, Mrs. Perry
said. Although the present serum
is effective in stopping paralysis,
it has not proven successful in
preventing polio, she explained.
“Tests have been made with
the new serum and if no polio cases
are reported among the children in-
noculated, then every child in the
country will receive the serum
shots,” Mrs. Perry said. “This will
end the struggle against polio.”
District captains and the terri
tory they represent are Mrs. J. D.
Lindsay, College Hills; Mrs. E. E.
Brown, Cooner and North. Gate
additions; Mrs. W. G. Breazeale,
campus homes; Mrs. J. B. Baty,
residences south of the campus;

Bridge road area; and W. A, Tar-
row, Negro area.
