RED CROSS IN THIRD DAY OF JUNEAU DRIVE Amount Coi?cted So Far Less than Half for Same Time Last Year The Red Cross drive, now in its third day, has collected $359.00—less » THE DAILY ALASKA /EMPlRE, THURSDAY, fiOV. 14, 1935. l)nmuw Gridder than half the amount received at 2\; 3 corresponding date last year. This report has to do with Juneau alone, the 19 outlying districts included in the local drive being as yet unre- ported In divulging this information, how- ever, A. B. Phillips, Roll Call man this year, said, “Roll call work- ers have by no means canvassed the entire city as yet. We feel confident that Juneau'’s contribution will equal last year's of $933. 1he need is great- e this year than it was last, and therefore those who donated last year should feel it incumbent upon them to give at least the same amount, if not more, in 1935.” Mr. Phillips stressed the fact that only 50 cents of each contribution goes to the national agency, the rest being kept here for use in local emer- gency Enumerating the work of the Red Cross in Juneau and its vicinity, Mr Phillips referred to orders now in the hands of B. M. Behrends. Presi- dent, calling for 50 pairs of glasses for needy children; orders for work for two children, averagi each; flour and clothing which has been provided to needy familie blankets furnished to victims of a fire. “Naturally names cannot be made public in such cases,” said Phillips. “The books are open to the public, but no names appear on them.” Arrangements have been made by which the Red Cross will supply cod liver oil and halibut tablets to school Dorethy Lee, pn-uy film ac- trecs, who won a Renc, Nev,, di- vorce recently from Marshall Duffield, former University of Southern California All-Amer- ican gridder. - MEMORIAL TO WILL ROGERS IS UNDERWAY to Fund—First National Bank Depository The creation of a Will Roger: Memorial Fund is now underway by “The Will Rogers Memorial Com- mission,” according to advices re- ceived by The Empire. Officers of the organization in- clude Vice-President John N. Gar- ner, chairman, and such other dis- tinzuished citizens as Owen D. jYDImg Jesse H. Jones, Rex Beach | Henry Ford, Will H. Hays, Alfred E. | Smith, Joseph T. Robinson. Elliot Roosevelt, William Green, Herbert Hoover and many others. Just what the memecrial will be has not yet been decided by the Commission. In the letter to The Empire Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker, director of the Commission, sa; “It is the aim of the commlLteel | that there will be millions of friend- ship contributions to the memonal‘s[ fund rather than large sums from a few associates. Every dollar sub- soribed will be expended for the me- | morials. Organization costs are de- | fray by the aviation industry. : “It is not known exactly what form the memorials will take. Cer- nly, il is agreed, there will be no cold shaft of marble for this warm, friendly man. Rather they will be living, continuing memorials to be| used for charitable, educational and | humanitarian purposes.” | The First National Bank in Ju-| {neau has been named the official depository for any and all those| !wishing to contribute to the fund, Juneaultes May Subscnbel according to John Reck, President. | Anyone desiring to make contri- | butions to the fund may do so by| <imply leaving them with any of the Deily Cross-word Puzzle - ACROSS .
