Mrs. James S. McClellan, 5757 Lindell, was recently named by the Globe Democrat as Woman of Achievement in the field of Community Service. Although she has been active in many charitable and civic projects, this particular honor recognizes her efforts in organizing Women for City Living and the Women’s Crusade Against Crime.
Women for City Living was begun to work for solutions to problems that concern women in an urban environment: safe streets, good zoning practices, etc. It is open to all women interested in city life.
The Women’s Crusade Against Crime was organized by Mrs. McClellan at the mayor’s request. This group works to enroll women from all parts of the city in an effort to eliminate crime and the kinds of neighborhood situations which lead to crime.
Mrs. McClellan and her husband James S. McClellan, an attorney and former president of the Board of Education, have four children and have lived at the Lindell address for more than twenty years.
