Help Bob help the handicapped
BOB HOPE may be one of the busiest men in the world. But he always has time for any cause he believes in.
Last Christmas Bob had a week off — all to himself. When he heard, however, that there was no one to entertain the hospitalized vets in Alaska, he bundled his family into a plane and flew north to make the boys’ holidays a little merrier.
And this spring, when the tragedy of cerebral palsy was brought to Bob’s attention, he volunteered to head the nationwide Cerebral Palsy Campaign which opened May 1.
Cerebral palsy has been prevalent since Biblical times, but medical science has studied it only since 1916. The average person, therefore, doesn’t recognize the condition when he sees it.
Cerebral palsy is caused when the parts of the brain that control the muscles fail to develop normally before birth or are damaged at birth. It is a condition, not a disease, with which 10,000 American babies are born every year.
Today over a half-million Americans have this affliction, but there are treatment facilities for only 2,500.
Of all handicapped children, our 200,000 CP children are the most neglected and least understood. For generations these children were considered feeble-minded, often condemned to mental institutions. Now we know that three out of four of them are rated “normal” or superior in intelligence.
Because only one CP child in 100 receives proper treatment, cerebral palsy associations have armed together to rescue all CP children from the attics, the dark corners and the institutions where they have been hidden for centuries.
These associations, organized in every major city and in many counties and states, are now a national body headed by Leonard H. Goldenson, president of United Paramount Theatres, Inc. The Cerebral Palsy Campaign is conducted under the auspices of the United Cerebral Palsy Association.
Diana Lynn, Bing Crosby, Cary Grant, Ricardo Montalban, John Lund, William Bendix, Wendell Corey, Dean Martin, Lyle Bettger, William Holden and Paul Lees also are assisting the campaign.
You can help by contributing to its funds.
