The toys were turned over to the U.S. Marine Corps' "Toys for Tots" program in a ceremony at the plant Monday. Among those taking part were (clockwise from left): Bill Moon, shop chairman for UAW Local 1776; Barbara Burton, co-leader of the project in the plant; George Francis, personnel director; Sue Jackson, the other project co-leader; Santa Claus; Marine 1st Sgt.
