Fieldale Contributes $2,013 To Heart Fund
The Fieldale Community Fund, in its
first allocation in 1961, made a dona
tion of $2,013.76 to the MarUnsville-
Henry County Heart Fund.
A check for this amount was present
ed in informal ceremonies in the Towel
Mill conference Room Thursday after
noon, February 9, by representatives of
the Community Fund Committee.
D. E. Simons, Towel Mill superintend
ent and a member of the fund commit
tee, presented the check to Mrs. William
Setliff, of Martinsville, representing the
Heart Fund.
Accompanying Mrs. Setliff to Fieldale
was “Uttle Miss Heart Fund of 1961,”
£jy0_ygap-old Soodie Stultz, and her
mother, Mrs. Charles Stultz.
Also present for the ceremonies were
the following Towel Mill employees rep
resenting the Fieldale Community Fund
Committee: Benny Crawford, Packing
and Shipping; Carroll Eggleston, Bleach
ing and Dyeing; Carrie Phillips, Sewing;
and Margaret Ann Stegall, Warehousing
and Shipping. ^
Later donations are to be made to the
Cancer Fund, March of Dimes and the

Under the Fieldale plan, only one so
licitation is made in the Towel Mill
each year. At that time an employ^

paid in small installments through pay
roll deductions for 12 months.
The money so raised is used for the
Community Fund and other authorized
fund drives. The funds are administered
by a committee composed of representa
tives from each department in the mill.
