Relief Plea Made
To Assist Family

IONE A desperate plea for
help for a Biafran family has
been received by Mrs. Fredrick
Martin from II. Ihenyl Anyaso,
a Nigerian friend whom she met
at a Junior High session nt
Camp Adams in 1902.
Anyaso came to the United
States as a student and is now
residing in San Francisco, un
til it is possible for him to re
turn to Biafra.
He has lost many relatives
and friends and asks for help,
for those who are left, in the
form of money, food, clothing
and medicines. Many are not in
the relief camps and receive no
assistance from the relief agencies.
Members of the United Church
of Christ have contributed a lib
eral amount for this cause at
their annual meeting last Sun
day. It will be sent to Mr. An
vaso. 1463 Waller St., San Fran
cisco, California, 94117. He will
send it to his cousin, a Roman
Catholic Priest in Paris, who
sends them through church
channels, of which he knows
to the Anyaso family in Biatra.
Anvaso has pleaded for any
organization or individual to
helu the cause of his people,
All gifts, large or small, will
be great.'v appreciated ana acK
nowledged. Gifts may be sent
directly to him or by contacting
Mrs. Martin, Rev. Mike Lueddo
