Deeper Than Mere Aid 2100 Families May Be Adopted
The volunteer bureau at 1020 McGee Street opened a two week drive to aid area families with clothing, furniture, food and money. About 150 adoptions occurred that morning from groups including the Woman's City Club and Loreto Academy, with case histories detailing needs from shoes for a 13 year old to blankets for a 74 year old woman. The 1951 census notes India's male-female ratio.
