Valley Clubs Begin Convention Publicity Plans for an extensive publicity campaign were made public Wednes day by the Valley Federation of Business and Professional Women’s clubs, according to Mrs. Blanche Fulgham, of Harlingen, president. “The publicity campaign will not only bring the Valley Federation of Business and Professional Women's clubs to the attention of the entire state of Texas as part or inexr preparations for the state conven tion of Business and Professional Women's clubs which will meet in Harlingen, June 19, 20 and 21, but this statewide publicity will do un told good for the Valley in general,” Mrs. Fulgham stated. All sections of the state will be covered in the campaign, according to Mrs. Fulgham. "Both large cities and small towns will read about the Valley from week to week,” she said. "Our pub licity department has already sent out stories to sixty papers in all cities and towns where there are Business and Professional Women's clubs. "These stories will appear in the papers throughout Texas, beginning Sunday, May 4. They will continue through the convention dates.” The nine Business and Profes sional Women's clubs in the Valley will have part in the entertaining of the convention, all delegates to be taken to the Valley cities where there are club* including Browns ville, Harlingen. Weslaco. Donna, McAllen, Edinburg and Ravmond ville. "In planning this publicity whi?h will be read by all newspaper read ers in the state we are keeping in mind that the people are interested both in the convention and in the place it is held,” Mrs. Fulgham explained. "So many people include a vaca tion trip when they attend conven tions. We want to tell them about the Valley so that they will either spend several more days here, or become so impressed with the beau ty of the Valley that they will re : turn soon.” Since the Valley Federation is a unique organization, nine clubs with a hundred and thirty members, the delegates will be especially inter ested in the terltory, as the clubs I are scattered over a portion sixty miles long and thirty miles wide, in the opinion of Mrs. Fulgham. "All other service clubs, the chambers of commerce and the newspapers in the Valley are prom ising their heartiest cooperation for the state convention." she said. "The first night of the conven tion, Thursday, June 19. will be open to the public, and we are ?x j pecting to have the Harlingen au ! ditorium filled with Valley citizens ! as the program will be of interest tc I everyone,” Mrs. Fulgham stated.
