This August 1946 issue of Polly Pigtails magazine features the story "Storm to Starboard" by Virginia Merritt, in which a girl named Susy Latham must overcome her fear of rivers and boats by taking the helm of a sailboat called the Myra during a river voyage. The issue also announces the launch of a national Polly Pigtails Club with headquarters in New York City, inviting readers to join local chapters and participate in organized activities, crafts, games, and club trips.
