Give SI2OO
To CARE
Over 1500 Tibetan refugee
children in India have reason
to be grateful to the students
of Montgomery Blair High

The students collected SI2OO
which they presented to CARE-

beds, tables, chairs and other
necessities for the Daharamsala
Nursery which is under the su
pervision of Mrs. Dolma, the
Dalai Lama's sister: and the

recreation. There are several
camps for retarded youngsters,
but none of them are free.”
Lee speaks with authority on
the subject, being the father of
a retarded child. "Up to three
years ago people hid these child
ren in closets . . . they were
ashamed and appalled at what
the neighbors might think.” he
said, but today science has
thrown the light of knowledge
on the dark comer of mental
illness. Miracles are happening
every day. So-called hopeless
cases are being helped and
sometimes cured,” Lee pointed
out.
The miracle of therapy, recre
ation, hand crafts and group ac
tivity is seen every day in men
tal health clinics. Camp Civitan
is designed to give professional
ly guided programs, well-bal
anced meals, therapy and, per
haps most important, tender
loving-care.
Area psychologists, leaders in
mental health programs are
scheduled to visit the camp and
observe the camp programs.
