the ones who wear blue suits with leather
collars and cuffs) will dance in the Chill
dren's Hospital group and the Emergency

red on their collars cuffs and hats) Will
take part in the Jefferson Hospital group.
1t strikes me that's a pretty clever loea
on the part of the chaperones who asked
them to dance.

group will be Dorothy Blair land John
White, Maisie Rush and Stewart Wurts'
Jr. Mrs. Benjamin Rush. Mrs. John Dray-
