It had never happened before . . . SENIORS had gone from door to door and had written countless letters re- questing contributions. The response follows the pattern of the normal curve — few extremely generous, and at the other extreme, few refusals. But the STALNAKERS hadn't been approached Then they took the initiative. They phoned and asked for a contribution blank. Natu rally we were delighted — and in return we hope that if you need snow plowed or trees pruned that you'll keep them in mind CHARLIE GERACI. pictured at the left, in the picture below holds a poster advertising STALNAKER and SONS.
