TORNADO RELIEF FROM TECH

The Wesley Singers, a 39-student group from the Wesley Foundation at Virginia Tech, Are spending spring break helping victims of a tornado that struck northern Alabama in February.

During their trip through March 19, the singers will also perform in seven states.

The students are among the first relief workers to arrive in the area of the state that was struck by a twister Feb. 16. Adding to tornado-victims' woes is news that the Federal Emergency Management Agency has not yet decided to provide relief funding.

Donations for tornado relief can be sent to Wesley Foundation-Tornado Relief, P.O. Box 458, Blacksburg, Va., 24063 or Volunteers in Mission, P.O. Box 494, Anniston, Ala. 36202.
