A donation of $2,172.13 from the
Fieldale Community Fund last week put
the 1961 Cancer Crusade in Martinsville
and Henry County over the top, bring
ing contributions to date to $10,692.10.
In an informal ceremony at the Towel
Mill, Floyd Bryant of the Weave Room
presented the Community Fund check
to Dwight Dillon of Martinsville, chair
man of the Trade and Industry Commit
tee of the Cancer Crusade.
Also representing the Fieldale Com
munity Fund Committee at the presenta
tion were the following Towel Mill em
ployees: James Witt, Weave Room;
Charles Grindstaff, Cloth Room; and
James Campbell, Weave Room.
Earlier donations by the Fieldale
Community Fund were made to the
Martinsville-Henry County Heart Fund,
the Martinsville-Henry County chapter
of the National Polio Foundation, and to
the R. J. Reynolds-Patrick County Me
morial Hospital at Stuart, Virginia. An
allocation is to be made later to the
Martinsville-Henry County United Fund.
The Towel Mill conducts one solicita
tion each year at which time an em
ployee may pledge a single contribution
to be paid in small installments through
payroll deductions over a 12-month
period.
The fund that is raised is administered
by a committee composed of representa
tives from all departments in the Towel
Mill.

four housekeeping inspections made by
the supervisors.

points are recorded on a large house

the housekeeping on each loom.
