Mrs. W. T. Kirven County Chairman of 'March of Dimes'; 'March' Starts Jan. 14 SAN FRANCISCO—For the seventh year, Joseph M. Schenck, noted motion picture producer, will serve as State Chairman for the annual March of Dimes appeal, it was announced by Basil O'Connor, president of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis. Mrs. W. T. Kirven of Garden Grove will be Orange county chairman. The appeal starts nationally January 14th and continues through January 31st. Dan Marovich, California Representative, will again direct the organization work. Frank N. Belgrado, past National Commander of the American Legion and East Bay banker, will serve for the second year as Northern California chairman. In Southern California activities will be handled by William "Dog" Bishop as assistant to State Chairman Schenk. California has ranked each year since the March of Dimes started as second among the States in the amounts subscribed. The nation during the twelve months of 1944 faced its second worst infantile paralysis in history, with more than 19,000 cases. This state, despite the hundreds of thousands of additional men, women and children brought here by the war, was low in the number of polio cases compared to other sections of the country, but in 1943 California was one of the three highest in the nation struck by the dread polio disease which afflicted men, women and children. As in the past, this year's appeal for funds to fight infantile paralysis will center around President Roosevelt's birthday, which is celebrated January 30th. In his appreciation of the 12th anniversary of the March of Dimes, President Roosevelt informed Basil O'Connor that: "Not until we have removed the shadow of the crippler from the future of every child can we furl the flag of battle and still the trumpets of attack."

Asiatic History, Algebra, Agriculture — School Marine artillery veterans of Salpan and Tinlan, resting from those campaigns at an advanced Pacific base, decided on "school days" for part of their recreation periods. Arrangements were made for a faculty and curriculum, based on the desires of the men and the qualifications of the teachers. Interest was greater than anticipated, and subjects now include agriculture, mathematics, cartooning and theology. Instruction and study are done solely during spare time; officers and enlisted men sit side by side, studying the same subjects. Many of the men plan to continue this education after the war under the "GI Bill of Rights." A class in Asiatic history (photo at left) is conducted by Lt. John M. Wilkerson (standing) of Emporia, Kan. His students (clockwise from left) are Pfc. Brizzy W. Taylor, Houston, Tex.; Corp. Eino O.
