PAGE SIX MRS. MANTHEY IS CHOSEN CHAIRMAN NEW NFIP CHAPTER Preliminary organization of Southeast Alaska chapter of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis was effected at a meeting held in the Baranof Hotel Gold Room last night An executive committee was named representative of Southeast Alaska. Going into session imme- diately following the dinner meet- ing, t! scutive committee named its officers and prepared an appli- cation for charter for the new chapter. Officers named were: Mrs. Doro- thy Manthey, chairman Mrs. Vern Lee, secretary; B. D. Stewart, trea- surer, all of Juneau; and Mrs. Annie Whaley of Ketchikan, vice chair- man. | West Altenburg, national repre- | sentative of the Foundation, assisted | with the organization plans. | He was introduced to the group | of 50 attending the dinner meeting | by Dr. C. Earl Albrecl ht, commis- | sioner of health, who acted as tem- chairman until the execu- porary tive committee was nominated | from the floor. Mr. Altenburg commented that Alaskans have been contributing | generously to the annual March of Dimes campaigns for many years. He said that there is $29,000 on de- posit with the national foundation for Alaska, but that until an Alas- kan chapter of the National Foun- | dation for Infantile Paralysis was organized there was no legal entity to whom the funds could be turned over. Funds for treatment and care of victims of the current polio out-; break in Alaska, he said, were set| up by the national foundation on an emergency basis. He suggested that Alaska have three chapters of the NFIP, rep- resenting southeast, central and northern Alaska. The state and ter- | ritorial chapters operate their uvm‘ programs without interference from the national foundation, he pointed out, but are eligible to funds and | equipment as needed from the na- tional organization in cases of emergency | Dr. Philip Moore, health deparl-; ment orthopedic surgeon who was | in Juneau last night upon his re- turn from examining polio patients | in Anchorage and Fairbanks, spoke briefly at the meeting. He stated that much aid had been received from the NFIP by Alaska in its current polio epidemic. Dr. Moore is enroute to Ketchikan where he will also examine polio patients. Mr. Altenburg planned to leave today for Anchorage and Fairbanks | to assist in organization of NFIP chapters in those areas. He said that application for the southeast chapter was already in the mail. Members of the Southeast Alaska NFIP chapter named at last night's meeting are: Frank Heintzleman of Juneau, Ted Harris of Mt. Edgecumbe, Mrs. Annie Whaley of Ketchikan, Mrs. | Marcus Jensen of Douglas, Major Eric Newbould of Juneau, Mrs. Kate Smith of Juneau, B. D.

WOMAN'S EDITOR OF SEATTLE P-1 I HURT IN ACCIDENT TACOMA, Wash., Dec. 5—P—A collision between a crowded North- west Greyhound bus and an auto- mobile on the four-lane Seattle- Tacoma highway killed the car driver and injured 14 of the bus passengers yesterday. None of the injured was considered critical. Fatally injured was Mrs. Gerald Taylor, 31, a Tacoma ice skating instructor. Passengers aboard the crowded bus said only the quick action of driver Gerald Thomas, 36, of Bel- lingham, averted a major tragedy. Thomas, who suffered only minor ,injuries when the bus flipped on its b§ LAVERN ! TORGESON Center w.s.c. side in the ditch, said the automo- bile swerved into his northbound ‘l-‘me. Futilely trying to avoid a crash, Thomas jammed on his air brakes and swung to the left hand side of the road. The two vehicles collided nearly headon. Thirteen of the 14 injured riders were hospitalized. Another, Mrs. !M-\nun Strixrood, woman’s editor of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer,| was taken to her home in Seattle with serious throat injuries.
