Polio Crusaders -- We are losing "Donny," Mrs. Lillian K. Donovan as chairman. She has headed the Polio Crusader drive since its beginning over a year ago. To her goes most of the credit for the successful first year. June Pickering, of Beverly, Mass., is the new chairman.

2  

Publicity -- This Chronicle, with paid advertising, a subscription price, and a pending application for second-class mailing entry, forms this Group's report. Steve Helburn, of Cambridge, Mass., is now chairman.

3  

Architectural and Mechanical Hints -- Inquiries on automotive controls have been answered. The "Watch Your Steps" campaign is Boyd White's main objective, as leader of this Group. Do you want to help?

4  

Stamp Group -- The Warm Springs Stamp Club, John Reisner, White Plains, N. Y., chairman, got off to a fine start. Stamp collectors, alumni, and friends have responded in a way that says that the "Franklin D. Roosevelt Collection" is going to be an immense success. Send all your odd stamps (or, if you are a collector, send some of your duplicates) to the Group.

5  

Rehabilitation -- Bill Lyon, of Niles Center, Ill., chairman, whose report appears elsewhere, has put real push into a rather thankless, discouraging task. His Group has sponsored a program of local vocational or valuable hobby classes. Lorraine Levey, of Syracuse, N. Y., takes over a job that means work, but in which the hard-won results are definitely worthwhile.
