VIII Cal For II
More Nurses Here
icontinued from first paeel

At present, he said, nurses are
working in two shifts but he point
ed out that all over the country
there is an increasing tendency to
increase the number of nurses in a
hospital and TO have three shifts in
Operation. Such Il system. he said
results in better nursing care for
those seeking hospital care
Briefly reviewing the history OF
the institution Mr.. Wymer recalled
mat from 1885 when Milford Memo
rial Hospital came into being until
this year. student nurses had been
forced to live In the old dilapidated
residence on Northwest Front St.
He pointed out that even in 1888.
such home was inadequate and
said. "A survey made of hospital
facilities at this time stated. The
Nurses home on one side is an OH
wooden residence to which a wood
Cn wing has been added. In order to
make sufficient room for the
nurses every available inch of the
Nurses home has been utilized. Ii
is difficult to conceive how even
Cne more nurse could be aCCOmmO-
GATED in the home"
This condition existed until this
year when the State Board of
Nursing threatened to suspend ap-
proval OF the nurses training
school unless situation was
remedied.
AS result of such action, the
Board of Trustees, secured as a
temporary home. the house of the
late Dr.. G. Layton Grier on Lake
View Avenue. while infinitely su-
perior to the old Front Street home.
Mr.. Wymer pointed out that this
TOO. was purely makeshift
He said. To-day. only our student
nurses can he accommodated here.
and the others have to live in other
parts of the city. To attend classes
cur student nurses have to xmOve
from one home to the other and
then back to the hospital There is
no place where they can all live to-
Gether or attend all classes under
one roof.
Pointing out that critical short
age of nurses existed all over the
country. Mr.. Wymer said, that such
a shortage would continue as long
as hospitals lacked proper living

The wild rooster Of Ordway street
has much more to crow about today
than the police.
And, according to the residents Of
the $500 block of Ordway street, he
certainly is doing it-especially
around the crack of dawn-just
when they're turning over for those
last 40 winks.
For the past month, wild ban
tam rooster" has been acting as a
community alarm clock in that area
and the residents are getting the
least bit bleary-eyed.
No less than IL times, the police
have sent scout cars to bring him
in. No less than IL times they have
come back empty handed.
"This critter can fly like bird
the police say.
He roosts in the tree tops, struts
around during the day and early in
the morning lets the whole neigh
borhood know he is ready to get up
even If they aren't.
Mrs. L. E. Gone of 1921 Ordway
street NV, was the latest to COM
plain about him. Police from No.
precinct sped to the scene, eager for
the kill.
But. as Corp. Charles Murphy and
Pvt. Robert Burke crept up on him
the rooster sneered, ran across the
lawn and took to the uppermost
branches of a nearby tree.
To make matters more embarraSs-
ing, Omcers Murphy and Burke
have a reputation as the stations
animal trapping experts. A month
or so ago, they shared coatimundi
that had the $500 block of Military
road in q dither.
