MANY AIDEb BY MARCH OF DIMES IN TWENTY YEARS McHenry joins the nation in the annual March of Dimes campaign the end of January, for which Mrs. Mildred Miller and Mrs. Gertrude Barbian are co-chairmen. Another staunch supporter of the Foundation and drive is Mrs. Leonard (Dolores)' Blake, 3716 West Maple avenue; who was stricken in 1951 while a young mother of two children, Linda, 3 and Leonard, one year. Devoted g r a n d p a r e n t s a s s i s t e d t h e family for many months. The Foundation taught her to use crutches and fitted her with three sets of leg braces. They picked up the tab for all expenses. Dolores is now employed as a secretary in addition to being a homemaker. Dennis Wegener, 15, son of Mr: and Mrs. Edward Wegner, 1204 North River road, is still receiving care from his bout of bulbar polio in 1955. He 1s scheduled to undergo more surgery at Illinois University Medical center, Chicago. The Foundation has assisted his family in partially paying expenses incurred for the ten-year period.

He died following a week's illness in January, 1947. Tragedy 'struck again in August of 1951 when Carole Reinboldt, 11, was stricken with bulbar polio and died three days later. CaroleAvas the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Howard Reinboldt, 1008 North River road. The Foundation paid families. These are just a.few of tine cases helped. Also reported to have had polio from the area are Richard and Linda Herdrich, Mrs. Raymond Schiller and daughter, Bonnie, Jack Powers, Gene Freund and Ed Guettler.
