$500 Given
To Blue Plains

A private citizen who re-
quested anonymity has given
$500 to the District Public
Welfare Departments home for
the aged and infirm at Blue
Plains.
Welfare Director Gerard M,
Shea said to the best of his
knowledge the donor had no
previous connection with the
institution, and may never have
visited it.
This is the largest single gift
ever made to the department
by a private citizen, he said,
with the exception of the
$4,000 donated by Monty
Manton, a Washington tire
dealer. which was used to build
a swimming pool at the Chill
dren's Center at Laurel, Md.
Mr.. Shea said the gift was
earmarked for the homes gen.
eral service program. He said
it enables the department to
accelerate some of its plans for
the leisure time program. Some
of the money also will be used
to develop a program for the
blind and the deaf at the insti-
buttons, D. C. Village Supt
James J. Burr reported.

times and, when brought back,
doggedly tries again. Once he
devises and executes an ingeni-
