I Pelham, Ga.—Harry L. Wingate,
| State chairman of the American
j Cancer Society’s 1954 crusade in
! Georgia, said today that nearly
•half of tHe $400,000 goal h as beei
! raised altho a majority of the 159
county units did not “kick off”
their campaigns until this.week.
Elbert and Haralson counties re
ported better than 200 per cent of
their goals. In the 100 per cent pr
more group after the first week are
Lumpkin, Turner, Pulaski, Glas
cock, Taliaferro, Rabun and Epson.
“Increased requests for aid for
indigent patients, new develop
ments in research call for intensive
xepension of investigation, and the
need to expand the public and pro
fessional education program, caused
a 14 per cent increase in the state
and national goals this year,”
Wingate said. “1 hope all people
will respond at least that much
more generously to the appeal.”
