Women of Achievement Awards

Saint Louis (Mo.)

1950-1959

About 1000 persons attended the luncheon in the Khorassan Room of Hotel Chase honoring the 1958 Ten Women of Achievement. Richard H. Amberg of The Globe-Democrat (at the microphone) singled out as universal attributes of the honorees their "love of humanity and compassion for their fellow man." Each of the 10 women received a plate in recognition of her work inscribed with her name and the category for which she was honored. Each of the 40 women honored in the last four years also received a gold medallion worn as a commemorative charm.
