Ijlnited Good IfleialiboFd C7 1 Statesman's HOME Panorama ami Li Women Music Fashions Features (Sec. II) Statesman, Salem, October 3, 1965 7 5 A 11 Tore than 500 women will participate in the itA annual house to house canvass for the Marion County-Salem United Good Neighbors drive. The residential campaign, headed by Mrs. Charles W. Mills, will get underway Monday morning and continue through Friday.

The total residential goal is $8,500 and $4,500 has been collected in advance. The drive will be conducted in eight districts and the women will solicit in neighborhoods during the daytime and evenings, in the city and the north, south and east suburbs. The leaders and workers have held training sessions the past week to familiarize themselves with the UGN program and agencies. Acquainting the women of the house with all phases and functions of the UGN agencies will be one of the main tasks of the solicitors. They are prepared to answer questions on UGN.

Leaders in the residential campaign are Mesdames Rhodes Skillman, Ronald Jones M. C. Thompson, Donald Sanders, Bruce Rankin, David Crockatt, Gene Herb, Ralph Smith-er, Leslie Morgan and Albert L. Younger. As families benefit from funds raised through the UGN campaign, we have chosen a typical UGN family to picture on our page today which participate in several UGN agencies.

PH 1 4 Ml 'If: I 'it A day's work does not end with canvass of neighborhood for United Good Neighbors Drive. Mrs. Herschel Frickey, mother of seven children with five still living at home, returns from soliciting to prepare evening meal for her family. Most volunteers face preparing dinner at end of long, tiring, but satisfying day as is shown by the smile on Mrs. Frickey's face as she stuffs green peppers.

Eldest daughter in the Herschel Frickey family is Louise, a senior at North Salem High and an active member of the Y-Teens. She helps during the dinner hour and sets the table for her mother. Soon after dinner she leaves for Y-Teen activities at the YWCA. All members of the Frickey family participate in various agencies sponsored by the United Good Neighbors. They are taking part in the current campaign to raise funds for UGN during 1966.

Pictured at the left are Susan and Cindy Frickey, the two youngest daughters of the Herschel Frickeys, who are eighth grade students at Par-rish Junior High. They are active junior high Camp Fire Girls and are wearing their ceremonial gowns. The beads represent the many awards they have received in the Camp Fire program. Susan, an ardent swimmer, is a member of the YMCA girls swim team. Op Mrs.

Herschel Frickey is just one of five hundred women who will be assisting in the United Good Neighbors residential drive this week. She is pictured above returning to her Street home after soliciting for advance gifts. Besides assisting her five younger children with their many school activities and being the family chauffeur she finds time to serve as a Camp Fire Girls leader. Camp Fire is one of the many agencies which benefits from the UGN drive. After business hours, Herschel Frickey (pictured at the right) plans programs and details for the Camp Fire Girls.

He serves as South Marion District Chairman, which also involves much clerical work. Mr. Frickey is also an active member of the Salem YMCA, as are other members of the family. Both Camp Fire and the YM are United Good Neighbors agencies. The two older Frickey boys, Allan and Gene, have also been YMCA members.

Allan is married and attends the University of Oregon. Gene is a senior at Willamette Durard Frickey (above) looks forward to swimming and playing basketball at the YMCA after school. His brother, Doyle, usually accompanies him, but is out for football this fall. They are ninth grade students at Parrish Junior High. In grade school the boys were Cub Scouts.

The Frickey family represents the hundreds of families in the Salem area who participate one hundred percent in United Good Neighbors and benefit from the various agencies. (All Photos by Kennell-EUis Studio)..
