Scope and Contents

"A king-sized white cane - approximately - was pinned on Sandy McLeod (left), president of the Sunrise Lions Club, by Dave Larson, vice president, at a recent meeting to help launch "White Cane Days," the Lions' annual fund drive to aid the blind. During the drive, Friday and Saturday, Oct 2-3, Lion members will be selling White Cane lapel pins all over town, on streets, in businesses and at residences. Also, coin cannisters will be placed at strategic business locations, according to Llyod Dearmore, the morning club's publicity chairman. The noon (host) club also is active in the drive. More than $4 million has been raised by the Lions Club of this district." [Additional images in envelope similar to published image.]
