of one week, and in that time over
600 pounds of wearing apparel have
been delivered to Miss Ethel McCor-
mick's office in the League. Martha
Cook contributed the greatest
amount, while IKappa Kappa Gamma

close seconds.
Cartons of brightly colored sweat-
ers, plus dozens of plaid, checked, and
solid skirts, suits, blouses, jackets,
plaid shirts, woolen dresses and even
some housecoats and flannel pajamas
were donated. Many warm winter
coats, including a fur coat, were given
in addition to hats:, kerchiefs, scarfs,
mittens, and heavy socks. Nurnerous
pairs of saddle shoes, loafers and
dress footwear were also contributed.
Miss McCormick, social director,
said, "I'm very glad to find such an
enthusiastic response, and I sincerely
thank all the girls for their wonderful{
contributions. These clothes, so gen-
erously given, will be greatly appre-
ciated by those people to whom they
will be sent,"
Ran Other Drives
Last year Michigan held many such
clothing drives, and succeeded in col-
lecting and sending 1217 pounds of
wearing apparel to Wasiington for
Philippine relief, 116 pounds to New
York for Lithuanian relief, 3863
pounds to Chicago for Norwegian re-
lief and 11 carton of sweaters to New
York for Belgian benefits. Many
women enclosed letters with their
contributions, and received replies
thanking them for their kind offer-
ings.
The drive has been the first of its
kind to be sponsored this year.
