Wallace E. Baynes Devout Optimist member Memorial Fund Established For Wallace E. Baynes By Karen Parker Post Staff Writer The West Charlotte Op timist Club has established a memorial fund in me mory of Wallace E. Baynes who was a member of the organization, according to President James Yancey. Yancey who is the chief court counselor for the 26th J<^||cial District not only remembers Baynes as a club member but also as a co-worker. Baynes was a staff member of the court counseling staff. "If Wallace had known before his death that a memorial fund would be established in his honor, he would have said, ‘There’s someone more deserving than me’," Yancey pointed out. “He would have agreed to it however," Yancey continued. "I ima gine Wallace would have said, ‘If it’s something to help someone, I’ll go along with it’.” The nearly 30 active members of the West Charlotte Optimist Club will create all guidelines and structure of the me morial fund, which is al ready building, at its next board meeting. Yancey pointed out he’ll propose that based on the amount of money donated to the fund, that young people of the West Char lotte community be assist ed through scholarships with individual develop ment. “1 know several young people in the com munity who have special talents, but come from families who cannot afford the funds to enhance the talents,” Yancey com mented. yjuc ui uie primary in terests of the Optimist Cffi is to foster the spe cial needs of youth. Ac cording to Yancey, Baynes did more than his share. Speaking about the charter member, Yancey ex pressed the memorial fund is a fitting and proper gesture because the West Charlotte Optimist Club was special to Baynes. People who wish to donate to the Wallace E. Baynes Memorial Fund should send their contri butions to James A. Yan cey, President, West Char lotte Optimist Club, 3125 Cricketeer Drive, Char lotte, NC 28216. Checks should be made payable to West Charlotte Optimist Club--For: Wallace E. Baynes Memorial Fund. Baynes is survived by his wife, Mrs. Bessie Baynes of 1467 Plumstead Road in Charlotte. His children are Klrstan Maureen and Danise Arisen, both of Charlotte.

' iiew dancer Booklet Attracts Readers With Format, Optimism By William Erwin Duke University Medical Center Special To Hie Poet ..Durham - Medicine and industry have joined to create perhaps the first cancer publication that people actually will enjoy reading. "Stay healthy America! A new look at what you should know about cancer" provides vital information without a hint of gloom or doom, says Dr. Seymour Grufferman, director of the cancer prevention and con trol program at the Duke University Comprehensive Cancer Center. The project was supported by a grant from American Family Corporation of Columbus, Ga. “This is something peo ple can read in a relatively brief period of time,” Grufferman said. "It’s done in the format of a doctor talking to a patient, the same way I talk to patients coming into my office.” The full-color, 36-page booklet answers questions such as: What is cancer?; What is the most important step people can take to reduce their risk of cancer?; Should I change my diet to reduce my risk of cancer?; Does coffee cause cancer? Should I stop drinking it?; How often should I see my physician for a checkup?; and Someone in my family has cancer. Do I stand a greater chance of getting the disease? Grufferman said the booklet invites people to pick it up, instead of trig gering their defense me chanism aginst any thought of cancer. It looks more like a magazine than a health education piece. Instead of patients in hospitals, readers see pic nics, a volleyball game, balloons at a theme park The print is larger than usual to benefit older readers. The booklet was written by Grufferman, who has a doctorate in publuc health from Harvard as well as an M.D. degree, and was edited for laymen by Ar thur Fisher, science editor of "Popular Sci ence" magazine. Copies of the booklet are available for $2 by writing to Cancer Booklet, Box 3958, Duke University Medical Center, Durham. N.C. 27710.
