By CHIEF GOODFELLOW
Here we go into the final
days of the 1976 Goodfellow
campaign with all systems
“Go” for a s. -cessful finish by
Christmas Eve.
During the past 10 days,
Goodlellows by the score have
come to Chief Goodfellow’s
rescue by speeding up contri-
butions to the point that it now
appears there will be enough
money by Christmas Eve to
pay for the big party.
Meanwhile, the daily mail
brings more requests for the
Goodfellows’ help — from
families where one or both' mattar its sjze
out the things that gladden
their hearts at Christmastime.
Chief Goodfellow’s helpers
are ready to be mobilized for
the final push, which includes
a king-sized shopping tour,
packing and delivering bags of
toys and goodies.
To learn something about
how the Goodfellow volunteer
team functions, please read a
message on this page from the
head of the city’s parent-teach-
er council, whose members for
43 years have been the Good-
fellows’ most faithful helpers.
The Chief says he still needs
some 82,000 to put the drive
over the top this year, but he is
confident the remaining Good-
fellows who haven’t yet sent in
their contributions will do so
this week.
Many new Goodfellows have
joined the community-wide
campaign this year. All you
have to do to be a Goodfellow
is make a contribution, no
parents are ill and young chil-
dren lace a bleak Christmas.
The Goodfellows will do all
they can to make sure these
and other needy youngsters in
our community are not with-
