Well, one thing, 1 say a true
friend should have is trust and
faith. If you find a friend with
that, then you’ve got a true
friend.

First, understanding .. love
and the complete desire of
wanting to be understood by
other people. With that
understanding there should be
an understanding of the person
he is to be a friend to.

Pilgrim
Provided Xmas
Dinners For
600 Families
By Ruben Burney
About 5 years ago, the
Pilgrim Health and Life
Insurance Company started the
Merry Christmas Fund to
provide complete Christmas
dinners for the needy.
Mr. Edward Mclntyre,
Public Relations Officer at the
Pilgrim said that 80% of the
persons served were Black but
they also served some 20% of
the white community. He also
stated that even though they
ran short of funds the
Company took up the slack.
According to Mr. Mclntyre,
they served some 600 families.
Operations started at 9:00
A.M. December 23 and went
on until all the food was gone.
Given out were 2,500 pounds
of chicken, 80 cases of canned
food, 1,200 loaves of bread,
and 40 cases of baby food.
Mr. Mclntyre said, “This was
my Christmas, to be able to
help others at this time of year,
because I feel that although
people need help year round, it
seems to be very hurtful on
anybody when people are
supposed to be gay on Christ’s
Birthday that people can’t even
have a decent meal on
Christmas.”
The program was worked
primarily through the
principals of the schools, they
selected the most needy
families. These were sent
letters, even those who did not
have letters, and asked for
food, were served.
Carl Burrows, of Radio
Station WTHB and Ed
Mclntyre; W.S. Hornsby was
general and honorary
chairman. Among the
volunteers were the officers of
the Company, the Debutants,
the Big Brothers of Lucy
Laney, the Scouts of Troop
and Pack 4.

Mrs. J.E. James is chairman
of the Welfare Committee and
Mrs. W.A. Sanders is president
of the club.

The man was arrested at
4:10 P.M. Saturday at 12th
and Wrightsboro Road. In his
possession was a 22 caliber
revolver with five live rounds
and one spent round.

The victim, Paul Stapleton,
51, was shot twice, once in the
lower stomach and again in the

Murphy was charged with
murder.
THEFT

door of Bower’s Thrift Store in
a “suspicious manner.”

box in which he said he had
found in a trash can in the
