This represented about 50 percent of the surplus in the County Chap ter, according to Mrs. Ruth Lish Milford, Chapter chairman. Each chapter was asked to share 50 of their surplus funds with the National Foundation, stated .Mrs. Lish, "because it is today in very real danger of hav ing to curtail its research and patient-ai- d program. Expenses brought about by rapid scientific developments have drained National resources to a point where aid to stricken Chapters cannot be stveh after the month of August, unless the chapters who have been fortunate in not having any polio, share their money." When the Foundation began the year 1953 it was faced with a any-ove- r case load of unprece dented size, and in the course of events it had to spend 5 ia million dollars for gamma globulin and nearly 4 million dollars lor field trials on a possible vaccine. That 5 million spent by headquarters for gamma globulin actually represents an expense which might normally have been borne by Chapters, since gamma globulin is a part of patient care on the local level. "Beaver County Polio Chapter was happy to be able to send the $1,000 in response to this urgent plea," said Mrs. Lish. Mis. Eva Stonehocker. coun'j treasurer, reports that the Chapter is still in good financial condition and able to take care of a polio epidemic should it occur. ;TPIay.in .Levari lourney Beaver's baseball team has re ceived an invitation to play in the Annual Levan Invitational Tournament, and will play their first game at 1 1 30 a.m. Sept.
