A.A.'s Country-wide News Circuit

Institution Feels A.A. Effect

An article, "Five Years of Progress," published in The Clarion of California Institution for Women, says: "In December, 1945, the initial meeting was held of Alcoholics Anonymous with a membership of 15. That group has now grown to 120 with regular meetings every Monday and open meetings with outside groups the first Sunday of each month. The entire campus has felt the effect of this A.A. program for a better way of living." In another part of the anniversary publication is an account of the visit of an A.A. Group from North Hollywood which concludes, "Live one day at time. Be selfish to the extent that you let nothing come between you and your sobriety. Outside influences cannot affect you if you build from the inside out."
