‘Sweetheart’ from Day of Birth
Is National Ma
“She was a sweetheart
from the day she was born.”
This is the way her mother
describes winsome, bright
little Mary Lou Graves, 5,
of Flint, Mich, who has
been named the 1964 Na-
tional March of Dimes
Child.
Blonde, blue-eyed, vivacious
Mary Lou is indeed a sweet-
heart, but. one who has had
more than her share of sadness.
She was born with a birth de-
fect called spina bifida, which
means that the base of her spine
was not closed properly, At the
age of one month, she under-
went an operation to correct
this condition. Since then, Mary |
Lou has fought to be able to
walk, and sometimes, she has
had to fight to live.
Today, the lower part of her
body is paralyzed, and she is
extremely vulnerable to infec- |
tions. In spite of this, Mary,
Lou is a cheerful little girl de- |
termined not to miss any of the |
pleasures of growing up.
Proud of the fact that she
lives in a state known as the |
auto capital of the world, Mary
Lou tells visitors that her wheel |
chair is a “Kadlac.” She has a
frisky puppy named Prince, |
and she scurries after him as
fast as Kadlac’'s wheels can
take her. She tags along after
her mother, Lelping.to sweep
the floor, dust the furniture and
dry the silverware. :
One of her favorite jobs is |
baby sitting for her two young-
er sisters and brother who were
all born without defects.
March of Dimes Symbol
The National Foundation-
March of Dimes has chosen
Mary Lou to symbolize the
250,000 children born ‘with a
serious birth defect each year
in this country. a
Basil O'Connor, president of
The National Foundation, ex-
plains the problem of birth de-
fects, and the voluntary health
organization's attack on it, in
this way:
“Why did something go
wrong when Mary Lou’s tiny
body was being formed? Why
is a seriously defective child
born to one out of 10 American
families? .
“Can more of these children
be helped with present medical
knowledge?

~
Favorite hairdresser of Mary Lou
Dimes Child, is her mother, Mrs.
“What more must we know
to prevent this from happening
to babies yet unborn?
“Simply stated, these are the
questions for which hundreds
of March of Dimes-supported
scientists seek answers.”
Because the answers which
come from scientific. research
will come too late to help chil-
dren already afflicted like Mary
Lou, the March of Dimes is
fighting the problem of birth
defects in still another way—
through a growing nationwide
network of March of Dimes
hospital centers seeking the
most effective treatment for
these children, Currently, there
are 44 of these centers across
the country. ’
Grateful for Help
Mary Lou may be unaware of
all the national and interna-
tional efforts to help solve the
birth defects mystery, but her
parents are not. Mr. and Mrs.
Raymond Graves are grateful
to the Genesee County (Mich.)
Chapter of The National Foun-
rch of Dimes

with Mary Lou's frequent hos-
pitalizations.
“The March of Dimes is the
greatest friend we ever had,”
Mrs. Graves says. “The March
of Dimes helped us pay for
hospital bills, medications, the
wheel chair and other neces-
sary items.”
Mary Lou wants to be a
nurse when she grows up, Mrs.
Graves reports. “Wouldn't it be
wonderful if she could be?”
the March of Dimes Child's
mother says. “Then maybe she
could pay back some of the
kindness shown to her. Until
then, my husband and I can
only say thank you to everyone
who contributes to the March
of Dimes, because more knowl-
edge might mean more medical
techniques that may help our
Mary Lou.” :
As March of Dimes President
O'Connor points out, the ulti-
mate aim of knowledge gath-
ered from this scientific re-
search is to prevent birth
defects from harming thou-
sands of tiny bodies not yet
born.

Use Of Electrical
Power On increase
Power output of the elec
tric utility industry in the
United States will approach
the triilion kilowatt-hour
mark in 1963, according to
Chas. E. Oakes, chairman of
the board and chief executive
officer of Pennsylvania Pows-
er & Light Company. The
output record is indicated by
the 34th semi-annual survey
of the Edison Electric Insti.
tute.
A near-record 45.6 million
kilowatts of new generating
capacity were on order for
the industry on Oct. 1, 1963,
Oakes said. Giant generating
units with ratings of 500,000
kilowatts and larger account
for over a quarter of the new
thermal generating capacity
on order.
The survey covers all seg-
ments of the electric utility
industry in the United States
—including investor - owned
and government power oper
ations. It shows that generat-
ing units with a total capaci-
ty of 16.4 million kilowatts
have been ordered by the in.
dustry from U. S. manufact-
urers during the first nine
months of 1963. This is the
largest order for a 9-month
period since 1956.
Of the 45.6 million Kkilo-
watts of generating capacity
on order, 82 per cent will be
utilized in steam-electric un-
its and 18 per cent in hy-
draulic units. Some 9.5 mil-
lion kilowatts of generating
capacity have been put in
operation during the first 9
months of this year.
Oakes said the 1963 sum-
mer peak load for the indus-
guests of honor at a party on trv was 160.2 million Kkilo-
