Small 'Iron Lungs' Used As Canisters - These six small-scale replicas of iron lungs are being used as canisters during the March of Dimes polio fund drive this month. Four will be placed at Willow Run Airport and two in Ann Arbor. Material for the canisters was donated by Washtenaw Building Trades Council, and union members volunteered their labor. Pictured left to right are Clarence Kollewehr, secretary of the Building Trades Council; Mrs. Gerhart H. Bower, member of the Ann Arbor canister committee for the polio drive; Mrs. Joseph Cox, chairman of the Ypsilanti canister committee; Mrs. Harold Bjornstad, chairman of the Ypsilanti campaign; and Mrs. J. Rane Pray, county March of Dimes chairman. The campaign will extend through January.
