Anaheim Gazette 3 SUNDAY MORNING, MAR. 1, 1953 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA Social and Club Activities IRENE JULIAN SOCIETY EDITOR Phone 2206 Anaheim Assistance League's Purpose and Function Revealed By President Mrs. Harry Nutt Of what does charity consist? To Mrs. Harry Nutt, president of the Anaheim Assistance league, and her fellow members, charity means community service and help to fellow man. For the Anaheim Assistance league, composed of women of Anaheim's oldest and finest families, is not a social organization but a working organization devoted purely and simply to service. The reason that more is not heard about the league's many philanthropies is the underlying belief of its members that charity is not charity when made public. Although this may be true, we think that a summary of the program of one of Anaheim's foremost club groups would not be amiss, and might serve to further the good works. HELPING HAND As we interviewed gracious and charming Mrs. Nutt at the family home at 904 W. Broadway one morning this week, she was repeatedly called to the telephone by committee members wanting to discuss an aspect of the league's ambitious program. For the Assistance league as its name implies, extends a helping hand to widely scattered needy families or individuals in the community who are not eligible for and from the county welfare do-boarded out in private families. As these are usually quite modest homes, the Assistance league provides these children with a monthly allowance to enable them to take part in extra-curricula affairs at school. Twice a year, the league takes them on a shopping trip to completely outfit them with new clothes. As a community service, the league has furnished equipment for the Anaheim Community hospital and for the Fullerton hospital: It has supplied the Orange county hospital with two special polio tables. Just last week, two complete hairdressing units were delivered to the county hospital so that TB patients and others who are bedridden for long periods might have their hair shampooed and dried more easily. FUND RAISING Where does the money come from? A good share of it is derived from two fundraising projects held annually. One is a fashion show usually held at the Balboa Bay club, and the other is the now famous rummage sale. This fabulous sale which will be held in town again this month hardly deserves the appellation, "rummage." Although used clothing and bric-a-brac is sold at pin money stamps, no one else can afford it. Father and Son Banquet Given by Fremont School Wednesday, Feb. 25 mark Fremont's annual father and son banquet sponsored by the PTA with Mrs. A. W. Bourne in charge Assisting the PTA were members and sponsors of Frehonso, Fremont Honorary society. After seating their fathers, the boys proudly served them a daintiful ham dinner. The blessing was asked by M. A. Gauer, a Coach Berneker, acting as team master, presented four talent boys in a short, amusing skit. The boys participating were John McDonald, Billy Larson, Mae Fowler and Bob Hatfield. Welcoming addresses were given by Dennis Adams and Mae Fowler, who discussed various Fremont activities, A. G. McDonald responded for the fathers. Following dinner a program was given by the Fremont band and the evening was concluded by tour of the metal and wood shop. The fathers expressed their appreciation to their sons for a more enjoyable and interesting evening. Mrs. J. Lee Rogers Addresses Laurel School P-TA Mrs. J. Lee Rogers of Anaheim second vice-president of the Fourth District P-TA and director of organization, spoke to the Laurel School on "Founder's Day" the week. She related briefly the national set-up and gave an interesting account of how Mrs. G. J. Hill of Santa Ana organized the Orange County PTA in 1913 and had to hold all the meetings Santa Ana because of lack of transportation. Past presidents honored were Mmes. Manuel Fanning, Cleo Arn Wilhelmina Ford, Francis Curtis and Benita Hoseea. Mrs. Wayne Baker, president presented a lifetime membership HELPING HAND As we interviewed gracious and charming Mrs. Nutt at the family home at 904 W. Broadway one morning this week, she was repeatedly called to the telephone by committee members wanting to discuss an aspect of the league's ambitious program. For the Assistance League as its name implies, extends a helping hand to widely scattered needy families or individuals in the community who are not eligible for and from the county welfare department, and yet because of a sudden emergency or unforeseen combination of circumstances, are in desperate need of both moral support and financial help. Such cases are usually referred to the league by the welfare department or school nurse, but league members investigate cases reported from other sources. Families who are temporarily in difficult financial straights are helped with hospital bills, or provided with layette for a new baby, or even given the actual cash with which to buy groceries. MARRIED TEN YEARS As a case in point, take for example the parents of two young children who had done well during ten years of marriage until catastrophe struck. The husband was suddenly afflicted with multiple sclerosis, a creeping paralysis of the muscles. As savings were swept away by medical expenses and every avenue of other financial aid exhausted, the Assistance League stepped in to buy badly needed sheets for the invalid, a special wheel chair with which he could get around, and finally an electric page turner which enabled the man to enjoy reading. He had been turning pages with his tongue until the advance of the disease made it no longer possible. UNDER ITS WING The league has taken under its wing the orphans who are wards of the county in this area. As there is no orphanage in Orange county, homeless children are Marriage Licenses KRAVITZ—Marvin, 21; Jacqueline Irene Miller, 20, both 143 E. 21st St., Costa Mesa.

FUND RAISING Where does the money come from? A good share of it is derived from two fund raising projects held annually. One is a fashion show usually held at the Balboa Bay club, and the other is the now famous rummage sale. This fabulous sale which will be held in town again this month hardly deserves the appellation "rummage." Although used clothing and brie-a-brac is sold at pin money prices, it is in excellent condition and of fine quality, having been donated by some of Anaheim's wealthiest families. Mrs. Nutt finds that Assistance league work takes far more than the 52 hours per year required of all members, but thinks that spare time could be spent in no better way. Having been welfare chairman before taking the office of president, she knows how necessary and how very deeply appreciated the work of the league is. Mrs. Nutt holds the office of president until July.
