Demand Supplied!
By Betty Miles

No dictionary could define &C
curately a Washingtonian. There
are those who are eligible for mem
bership In the Society Of Natives.
There are those with a New England
accent or a Texan viewpoint en-
gagged primarily in doing business
for the Government.
There is another group of Wash
ingtonians, also in business for the
Government. They weren't raised
here, and they may not have a New
England accent or q Texan view
point, either. They don't have the
usual problems-they never spent
months looking for an apartment,
for example. They don't have to
defend themselves on washington
dance floor, or teeter on streetcar
or bus.
When you live in a hospital, these
things don't bother you.
Some of these Washingtonians
never go to meet the rest of the
population. They stay in Walter
Reed, in Naval Medical Center, in
st. Elizabeth's, in Mount Alto, in
other service hospitals in the Wash
ington area. The Red Cross brings
the community to them. 1t acts as
booking agent and middleman
whereby entertainment and gifts
are supplied.
Women's and mems clubs, local
businessmen, various organizations
and individuals supply the goods
that are delivered by the Red Cross.
Through the American Theater
Wing, for example, nonprofessionals
as well as professional entertainers
come to the hospitals. A lobbyist
with knack for selling his hobby
to the public will speak; choirS,
organists and boogie-woogie players
are in evidence; barber shop quar-
tets harmonic. A woman puts a
trained dog through its tricks, a
magician skilled in the ways of hats
and rabbits goes from ward to ward.
