Show CANCER DRIVE GETS GOOD START HERE The Milford Cancer Drive is "completely organized and well under way," it Was announced this week by Mrs. Loretta Cline, local chairman. Many of the 15 volunteer workers will make their house-to-house canvass this week-end, Mrs. Cline sa d, and those who do not canvass their districts this week will make the calls at an early date. The city has been divided into 14 districts, with at least one worker being assigned to each district. Mrs. Phyllis Whittaker is in charge of the South Milford campaign. "Last year the cancer drive collected $223.10," Mrs. Cline said, "but this year they are only asking the Milford-South Milford area for $200. We expect ex-pect to meet our quota without any difficulty, but everyone must make at least a small contribution con-tribution if we are to go over the top." A report of last year's expenditures ex-penditures showed $89.24 of the 223.10 was forwarded to the national association for treatment, treat-ment, education and research; $11.96 was spent as expenses for one delegate to a training school; $13.13 for campaign material; ma-terial; $1.03 for postage and $2.80 for miscellaneous items. The remainder of the funds is in the state fund, Mrs. Cline said, and is available for care of patients if needed. |
