Americans Show Christmas Spirit Beyond Tinsel and Trees
The piece highlights numerous acts of kindness during the 1971 holiday season and beyond. Police officer Harry L. Jones in Birmingham used his last $6 for groceries, a Seattle letter to Santa inspired wheelchair aid, and volunteers in Lynwood formed a Santa Patrol. A Florence family sent gifts to 240 orphans in Vietnam, while Seattle workers routed packages for POW families. Jean Logan mobilized volunteers to feed over 3,000 families with a pickup-truck drive. Youth programs in Greenwich and Las Vegas show civic care, and San Francisco Bay oil spill relief and Evanston theater funding show ongoing benevolence.
