Umatilla Red Cross seeks urgent help for winter garments
Social and personals note the Umatilla County Red Cross chapter must finish uncompleted refuge garments to meet winter orders. Under chairwoman A H Cox volunteers work in sewing rooms to produce surgical dressings and comforts. Pendleton helpers, including Mrs. J N Burges and John Thompson, coordinate folding, sponge shaping, and final assembly of about 2000 remaining dressings. Several locals and visiting members, such as Mrs. J A Walters and Miss Alma Harris, are noted, with upcoming sales and club meetings also mentioned.
