ANAHEIM – the HU Mothers Marshalling for Anaheim March of Dimes The sentries are stirring in the camp. Initial activity is getting under way for the next campaign when mothers throughout the East Anaheim area go door to door for the "Mothers' March of Dimes." Marching not with muskets but with what they call the "Golden Key of Hope," local women will be collecting donations for the national March of Dimes. Mrs. Donald Ready, 240 N. Evergreen, East Anaheim, is rallying troops around her as she marshalls women in the city. "I will be asking for help from mothers' organizations and from PTA's, from youth groups and service organizations as we get ready for our drive," Mrs. Ready said. "Anna volunteers can call me at PRospect 2-3845." "We need help on the big organizational jobs and also help on the no less significant jobs of envelope stuffing, telephoning and the actual marching with us from door to door," she said. The mother of one child, Cindy Lou, 7, Mrs. Ready has lived in Anaheim for almost ten years. She has been active in PTA and Girl Scouts as well as with the March of Dimes. Last year she was a local area M.M.O.D. chairman. Local headquarters for the Mothers' March of Dimes are in the Marine recruiting office, 273 E. Lincoln. From there and from her own kitchen phone Mrs. Ready will be contacting area chairmen and volunteers as the drive gains momentum. Special activities will be in the hands of County chairman Mrs. Deannie Mitchell, 701 S. Dover.

She also made arrangements with the Glacier Falls ice rink for an ice show and skating party open to the public with skate rental fees all going to the March of Dimes. "We feel that we really do hold the key — a golden key — to the possible eradication of polio, arthritis, rheumatic diseases and birth defects through our work gathering funds for the March of Dimes," Mrs. Mitchell said. "We are arranging for more special events this year. We want to be sure to go way over the $5,000.00 Anaheim citizens donated last year for the March of Dimes." the no less significant jobs of envelope stuffing, telephoning and the actual marching with us from door to door," she said.
