IOWA CARES
FOR CRIPPLES
Facilities of State University Are
Placed at Disposal Of Young
sters Who Are De-
formed.

The $15o,0oo which the last leg,
islature of Iowa voted for the build
ing of a special hospital at the state
university is going to enable this state
to care for its crippled children bet
ter, probably, than any other state In
the United States.
DR.. l.. w. Dean, head of the Uni
versity college of medicine. and mem
bers of the building committee of the
board of education, are securing the
country to get ideas from other hos
pitfalls to incorporate in the new Iowa
hospital to make it Of greatest serV-
ice and convenience.
Work on the building will begin
sometime this summer. Although
final plans have not yet been reached
Dr. Dean announces that the new
hospital will include several features
that have not been possible in the
present quarters Of the children's
hospital.
"There are going to be extensive
laboratories for carrying on re-
search" DR.. Dean declares. THE
sicence OF dealing with the deform-
tiles of children Is a comparatively
new field and there is an excellent
chance for this university with it's
equipment to have telling influence
in the extension Of the science.
