CHAIRMEN ISSUE
ANOTHER APPEAL
FOR POLIO MONEY
A new appeal to the residents of
Nyssa to contibute to the march
of dimes by dropping coins into the
many containers placed about town
was issued today by Orin Sumner
and Ed Knettle, co-chairman of
the drive in Nyssa.
Next Monday will be known as
March o f Dimes day.
Persons
drinking coffee or eating down
town that day are asked to put
an extra nickel in Che containers
for each cup o f coffee they drink.
" A heavy responsibility rests on
he shoulders o f everyone in our
community” , said the chairmen.
T lM t responsibility is to see to it
tow that every passible aid be giv­
en to all our boys and girls next
summer should infantile paralysis
strike at our homes. We were spar­
ed this last summer, but who
knows what 1919 will do to us.
"T h e most important thing is
this. W e can minimize to a great
extent the crippling after-effect-,
j f the disease in many o f those
who are stricken, but to do this
we must spend money. Give at
least 50 per cent more in 1949.
"Also do not forget the basket­
ball game January 29 between the
high school teams of Nyssa and
Parma.
Principal Dennis Patch
has arranged that all proceeds will
be given to the March of dimes."
