Seal Drive Opens Tomorrow for Joliet Children
The second annual Easter seal drive for crippled children in Joliet opens tomorrow. Sponsored by the City club with Frank Anderson Jr. as general chairman, the campaign runs until Easter to raise 1200 dollars for a new room at J. M. Thompson school. Seals cost one cent or one dollar for a sheet and feature a boy with a crutch. Proceeds fund desks, furniture, crutches, wheelchairs, walkers, lamps and related devices. Miss Helen Simone Wilhelmi leads the local crippled chapter as honorary chair.
