The Chicago chapter of Hadassah held its third annual $50 “Give or Get” luncheon yesterday at the Stevens Hotel. One thousand women were present, each of whom contributed or raised $50. In this manner the Chicago chapter raised its quota of $50,000 for the Hadassah Medical Organization.
Mrs. Robert Szold, national president of Hadassah, gave an inspiring talk which will be the foundation of even more intensive work.
