from them the necessary papers

“although polio incidents in
Texas was lowered by 50 cases
last year, Brazoria County
spent $24,663 on patient care
and $4,155 on vaccine and re-
search, a total of $28,800. All
money collected in the telethon
will be applied toward Alvin’s
quota which has been set at
$3,675. All indications point to
a top flight television program
and the telethon will give Al-
vin residents and i friends an
oppoprtunity to see the best
talent this area has to offer
and to make their own contri-
butions to the March of Dimes.

the Froberg Funeral Chapel by
the Rev. Frederick T. Schmuc-
ker of the Alvin Evangelical
Lutheran Church. Burial was
in the Confederate Cemetery
with the Rev. A. E. Burns of-
there.
Mrs. Froberg died suddenly
Saturday morning at 9:05 a.m.
She was bom Aug. 10, 1885
in Germany and came to the
United States when she was
13 years old. She has been a
resident of Alvin since 1912,
moving here from Galveston:
She was a florist and co-
owner of the Froberg Funeral
Home.
Survivors are her husband,
of Alvin; a
Elizabeth F.
three sons,
Carl, Ernest and Walter Fru-
berg. all of Alvin; and five
grandchildren.
Pallbearers were: A J. Ko$
ter, H. W. Collins. Clifford Cox.
Otto Schroeder, Geo. Kruezer
and Claude Allridge.
Hubert Wood, public utilities
director here.
Mr. Wood said there were
1,617 water meters in Alvin
at the close of 1955 and 1,682
meters at the close of 1956.
He also said his records
showed a total of 213,337,000
gaLons of water pun.ped by
the city in 1956, an increase
of 25,257,000 gallons »ver the
188,080,000 gallons punped in
1955.
Despite the shortage of water
all over the state, , M . Wood
said there probably will be no
shortage here within the next
two years if the tw^ city wells
continue to provide water as
they now do.
“At the end of two years,
we will need another 1,000,000
grounud storage tank,’’ he said.
‘That will give the pumps a
chance to catch up at night
over the water that has been
used during the c^iy.”
Mr. Wood also said he
thought the city will need a
third well within five yeais
if the growth of the city con-
tinues as it has recently.

Kathy was only four and a
half years old when she con-
tracted* the disease and while
she wore braces on both legs
for some time—and a single
brace for even longer—she is
now able to walk with no aid
from braces and with only a
slight limp.
Kathy is taking io treatment
now but in 1954, she under-
went surgery on one foot, her
mother said.
She is still improving, is able
to be in school full time, is a
member of a Brownie Scout
troop and is an active little
girl.
Her brother, Sammy, who is
14 now, was ill with polio at
the same time but his case
was even milder than Kathy’s
and he was at the Hedgecroft
Clinic only three weeks.
“He suffered no lasting ill' memorial
effects at all,’’ his mother said.
The Doerrs have thrte other

The Memorial will be erect-

An impressive ceremony is
being arranged in connection
with the dedication Command-
er Moore said, and some^ of

ticipate. The complete program
will be announced next week.
“Alvin has been represented,
in the great wars in which this
•ation has participated, by
hundreds of its native and
adopted sons,’’ Commander
Moore said. “Many of thes?
paid the supreme sacrifice
fighting for our causes Cer-
tainly the least those of us
who are here today can do is
to pay tribute to their mem-
ory.”
“Until now there has been
no tangible evidence that we
have remembered. We hope the
1 which we plan to
dedicate during National VFW
Week will serve this purpose.
The memorial will consist of
fitting war trophies, buried in
cement, with a plaque memor-1

mander Moore said.

me when I bad to be taken to
Jeff Davis in Houstop because j

“It must have been a tre-

more than that”
Miss Ryman was 14 years
old and in the ninth grade at
school when she contracted
polio.
In the initial stages of her
illness, she was completely
paralyzed.
Doctors did not think too
much of the hot pacjts involv-
ed in the Kenny Treatment in
those days. But nurses did.
Rymal took herself and
her washing machine to the
hospital room.
The washing machine was
set up in the room and pro-
vided the constant hot packs.
Mrs. Ryman was a constant
helper at her daughter’s bed-
side
“I’m sure mothers are not
allowed these days,” she said.
And as time passed, so did
the severity of Joyce’s involve-
ment.
She regained the use of her
arms and legs so that now her
invovlement is something she
“works around.” She keeps
busy doing huosework, cook-
ing. gardening, church work
. . and her pet p:*oject is
the March of Dimes.
Her major difficulty now is
stooping. A relative made a
“high” chair for her and she.
has a specially-made high bed.;
That helps her to make her
way—but what possibly '
most is her own attitude.1
