100 Women Answer Call
For Nurses Aide Training

Nearly 100 women have responded
to an appeal of the District Red
Cross Nurses Aide Corps and are
filling one day class and two night
training classes, Mrs. Millard Tyd-
ings, corps chairman, announced
yesterday.
She made the announcement at
a luncheon attended by 165 nurses
aides at the Mayfower Hotel. She
said the corps is taking applications
for a second training class for day
aides and a third class for night
aides.
The corps had appealed for vol
unteers to take immediate training
because of the continued critical
shortage of nurses at local hospi-
tails.
