WILHELMINA HARVEY (Continued From Pzge One) ception in 1945 and. particularly tmder the leadership of Ralph Sierra, and later wuhder James Murphy. The history of the lo- cal chapter has revealea thgt de- spite its being young in age, it is rich in accomplishments. Prior to 1945, such civic-minded rsons as George Lucas, the late r. Harry C. Galey, and many other prominent persons collect- ed monies and staged benefits for the assistance of polio. patients. Many hours of voluntary service far beyond the call to duty as citizens of a community were spent in improving health con- ditions locally. In 1945, the actual formation of this local chapter was accom- plished by the Key West Junior Chamber of Commerce. Among the many achievements of the local Jaycees, the Monroe County Polio Chapter .is one of, its most outstanding. Members actively engaged in this project, included low, Jeff Knight, Charles Smith, George. Faraldo, Ralph Faraldo, Evelio Rueda, Jack Delaney, Isa- dore Weintraub, Glen Archer, Ralph Sierra, John Spottswood. Albert Carey, Robert Dopp, Isa- dore Rodriguez, John Gardner, choice of person to serve as ‘the first chairman of this organization was Ralph Sierra, who served the chapter well until he moved to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. In its infancy, the “March of Dimes” Drives usually netted six, seven, or eight hundred dollars with corresponding increases constantly “being made as the contributions grew each year. In 1947, the banner year was experienced when the “March of Dimes” Drive’s gross receipts amounted to $14,815.94, which was the greatest amount ever raised in any community drive to date and represented the great- est per capita contribution in the State of Florida. Spearheading this @rive was Mrs. Wilhelmina Harvey, County Chairman, and Mr. Lee Mason, City Chairman. Actual credit. for such a success was given by Mrs. Harvey to Mr Lee Mason for his. promotional ideas and to every citizen who volunteered from all walks of life for such a noteworthy cause. Most outstanding were the num- ber of hours of work volunteered by families of polio patients of former years, by the school chil- dren who brought in the most amazing contributions from the public schools under the guidance of Mr. Willard Albury and his staff of teachers, and by the children of the Convent of Mary Immaculate and St. Josephs Col- lege under Sister Mary Isabella of Key West as Mother Superior, and the Nuns of the Convent. Honors were again accorded the Monroe County Chapter when Mr. James Calloway, County Chairman, and City Commission- er Louis Carbonell, City Chair- man, were in charge of the 1949 March of Dimes Drive and was attested to at last night’s meeting by Mr. James Murphy, Chairman. The financial sucess of the drive in 1949 was considered even more of a sucess than the 1947 drive, ‘CLYDE HARRIS, 31, former U. S, Army.
