Women Volunteering . ! For Nurses Classes
Response to Appeal Voiced Yesterday Described TO' {: day as Overwhelming" Registrations Monday <

e So grat was the response to the plea issued yesterday jointly by Miss Aida Greer, chairman of the local Red Cross nursing service, and Mrs. Arthur Mountain, executive secre- tary of the Womel1's Home Defense committee, for 300 volunteers for a -Tlurses' aid training course, that the latter committee today had to open Its headquarters, usually closed on Friday, to take care of the constant calls.
 l. Mrs. Mountain between telephone calls this morning characterized the response to the appeal as "over- -Whelming". She urged those inter- Ested, however, to continue to vol nnteer for the course, inasmuch as the requirements automatically exclude a large proportion of those who apply A great many of those who signify their willingness to register for the training course pre- paratory to becoming nurses aides at the local hospitals, but are un- able to meet the requirements, she Said, are registered instead, at their own request, for first aid and home nursing classes
 :, The executive secretary pointed out today that the regular hours at which the committees headquart- CTS in the Chamber of Commerce building are open for interviews and
