Miss Vivian Acord To National Post By HORTENSE MYERS United Press International INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—A , former war correspondent who has gained wide attention for her onewoman campaign in another kind of battle is preparing to move from the Indiana front to a national one. Miss Vivian Acord will relinquish her position a? public relations director for the Indiana Association for Mental Health Aug. 31 to take a job in Washington. The tall, slender brunette first came to Indiana in 1957 to—campaign for greater understanding and acceptance of the mentally restored—the former mentally ill patient who has recovered and returned to his or her own community. Some had some potent ammunition. In that initial Hoosier talk at the Indiana governor’s mansion, Miss Acord frankly related her own experiences as a mentally ill person in an Illinois state hospital and the distrust and estrangement she encountered upon her return to so-called normal living. Made Numerous Talks Covering World War II in Europe was easier than winning the battle of re-acceptance after once having been tagged “mentally ill” She discovered. Since becoming Indiana information director, Miss Acord has been “borrowed” several times by other states for talks on the problems encountered by the mental-ly-restored. As a result of one of those talks, she was named last week as a member of President Eisenhower’s Committee on Employment of the Physically Handicapped. More than a year ago, Miss Acord addressed a six-state regional meeting of this committee,, attended by Maj. Gen. Melvin J. Maas, its national chairman, and William P. McCahill, the executive secretary. Miss Acord had urged that the mentally restored be included along with the physically handicapped in the job-getting campaigns of the committee. Recently, the committee adopted a resolution to change its policy and title, dropping the handicapped and including the mentally restored as well. “Deep Interest” Cited McCahill wrote Miss Acord that “more than any other one per* son...your efforts were responsible for the eventual change in the President’s committee policy relative to the mentally restored and mentally retarded.” Then, earlier this month, Maas wrote Miss Acord that “in view
