PACE EIGHT MARCH OF DIMES: Campaign Proceeds Will3 Aid Local Polio Victims THE MICHIGAN DAILY THE MICHIGAN DATTAY THURSDAY, JAN VARY 18, 1951 THURSDAY; JANUARY 18, 1951 IC4r 'U IE NEWS t S * * The National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis has launched its annual March of Dimes cam- paign to raise funds to fight one of the nation's most dangerous and dreaded diseases. In recent years the number of polio cases has risen to what medi- cal authorities consider epidemic stage, making the need for fur- ther research greater than ever. THIS YEAR the pledge of each chapter of the National Fonda- tion is that no polio victim shall go without treatment for lack of funds. To achieve this the local chapter is appealing to every resi- dent of the county for financial help so they can make this pledge a realization. In addition to the usual col- lection through stores and thea- tres, half the proceeds from the Rose Bowl movies to be shown at Hill Auditorium Saturday night have been pledged to the drive. Proceeds from the sale of The Daily's J-Hop extra wil go to the March of Dimes, as usual. The Washtenaw County goal for this drive has been set at $24,500, several thousand dollars less than the 1950 goal. Last year the local chapter was forced to call on the National Foundation for over $14,000, so it is imperative that they reach their goal to make up for last year's deficit and to re- plenish the treasury for 1951. Half of the money collected here will remain in Washtenaw County to help victims and to support re- search being cajried on at Uni- versity Hospital. The other half goes t the National Foundation to aid hard hit areas and continue research. The Washtenaw County chapter has used over $47,000 since 1945 to pay for hospital and clinical care for 90 polio patients at Uni- versity Hospital. Public Hearing To Be Held on ZoningFight The Common Council will hold a public hearing on the proposed city zoning ordinance amend- mWent at 7:30 pm. tomorrow in the council chamber of City Hall. Such a meeting is required by law each time a change in the zoning regulations is proposed. It is held so that the council mem- bers may obtain pertinent infor- mation about the amendment from interested persons. UNDER consideration will be Prof. A. D. Moore's amendment which would set up a new A-i zone designed for the use of fra- ternities and sororities. Prof. Moore is chairman of the coun- ci's ordinance committee. The plan has been attacked by Student Legislature because it excludes league and co-op houses. Fraternity men have lashed out the proposal which leaves nine fraternities outside of the new A-i area. The amendment was propos- ed as a compromise for the de- mand made by a group of Ann Arbor citizens that h o u s e groups be restricted from resi- dential zones A and AA. Dean of Students Erich Walter will attend the meeting, as well as IFC president Bob Vogt, '51. Both will give their views on the amendment. City planner R. C. Eastman noted that the hearing may not be the last. "If a new plan comes out of this meeting, there will have to be another hearing." The council will take action of the amendment at a future meet- ing.

Hall, chairman of the Committee, said that the money would be put into a fund which is to be spent "to fill in the gaps and otherwise improve" the li- brary's collection of books.
