of S. Syrjala as his stage designer,

unequalled by any other summer

Syrjala has been one of television's S

Red Cross Appeals
For Additional Aid
For Midwest Disaster

Rather than attempt countrywide
campaign to meet a $3.50 quota for
flood relief in the mid West, the Gar
rett County chapter of the American
Red Cross is conducting quiet APP
peal in hopes of obtaining the needed
funds.
The Chapter fell short by about
$500 in their annual drive and ex-
pended their reserves for relief of
strike-affected persons in Kitzmiller
and Shallmar, and thus could not
meet this call for funds out Of its
own pocket.
Mrs. E. z. Tower, president of
the local chapter, pointed out that
the county received several thou
sand dollars from outside help for
relief of tornado victims when the
storm struck in June, 1914, and that
the present disaster in the midwest
is one of the first opportunities we
have had to return the generous as
sistance.
Persons interested in making a
contribution are asked to contact IT.
