Welfare Chairmans Marathon Help Spares No One
In Oxford the welfare committee leader endures a long day and a frantic evening aiding families in need. A string of calls brings food from trusts and manor kitchens, while volunteers including Charlie Smith and Gosnell organize donations. A rush of turkey, chickens, potatoes, bread, and soup is barely managed as townsfolk seek relief for widows and paralyzed elders. The charity drive continues with calls for extra food and a request for two dressed chickens.
