Nurse School Seeks
Funds 10 Continue
Al Garfield Hospital

The continued operation Of
the Garfield Memorial Hospital
School of Nursing is dependent
on its current fund campaign.
DR.. E. Clarence Rice, chairman
of the drive, said today.
A goal of $4,000 has been set
for the drive, which started
Tuesday and will end on Sep
tember 80.
Continuation of the nursing
school is vital If Washington is
to overcome its nursing Short
age, DR.. Rice said. The United
States Public Health Service es-
timated recently that the Dis
trict has % per cent fewer nurses
than it needs, the doctor added.
The stepped-up hospital-build-
ing program in recent years is
one reason the demand for nurses
outstrips the supply, DR.. Rice
said. Other reason are the needs
Of the armed forces, industry
and public health services.
"The majority of Garfield SEN
iors stay here in Washington
after graduation" DR.. Rice said.
"This year the hospital expects
to retain almost 100 per cent
of the senior class"
Garf1eld's School of Nursing
has also held it's own in recruit
ment, DR.. Rice said. In 1851,
for example, when enrolment in
nursing schools over the country
dropped roughly 5 per cent
Garf1eld's enrolment increased
9 per cent.
Professionally, the Garfield
School of Nursing ranks with
the top Is per cent in the Ma
ton, DR.. Rice said. OF the 1,040
diploma schools of nursing, only
Is per cent are accredited by
the National Nurses Accrediting
Service, and Garfield is in the
Is per cent.
The fund-raising drive is be-
ing conducted entirely by VOL
unteers. Contributions may be
made to the School of Nursing,

Smears Have Effect.

Some of the congressional in

adverse effect in Europe, the
speaker said.
Another bad impression is be-
ing created by members of Con-
gress and others making junkets
overseas, he added. They seem
more intent on other things
than investigating at length the
problems to be studied. These
things are adding fuel to the
general dislike of Americans evil

Scene Is frightened
By Dorothy Shay
And Betty George

A pair of the towns more
popular dine-and-dance eStab-
lishments are making it difficult
for man to think Of staying
home at night right now. 1t
may even be foolish to think of
it. The week brought Betty
George to the Sazerac Room at
the Old New Orleans and
Dorothy Shay to the Embassy
Room at the Statler.
Each, in her own field, is
pretty special. To have both
present at the same time is an
bun d ance tn a t can only
brighten the local scene.
Miss Shay is something of a
Statler regular by now and she
and Embassy. Room audiences
get along just fine. She is, as
almost everybody must know,
the only one of her kind with
her application of slick sophis-
tication to highly comic songs.
Admirers of the Park Avenue
Hillbillie would be happy to lis
ten to her for hours on end and
it may eventually come to that.
She keeps adding new songs in
the interest Of freshness and she
keeps getting requests for old
favorites.
One item sure to become a
standard part of the Shay re-
pertoire is a fine comic ditty

which she sets forth as a musi-
cal story Of her life. Another,
which may succumb to time but
is very funny right now. Is the
plant of the wife Of a TV addict
-"Television's Tough on Love-"
There also are the old Shay
favoriteS "Feudin.' and
Fightin'," Uncle Fud," Noun
tain GAL" Efficiency" Say
That We're Sweethearts Again"
and I'm in Love With a Married
Man" You won't soon find a
better excuse than Dorothy Shay
for going to the Embassy Room.
For that matter, you probably
won't soon find a better excuse
than Betty George for going to
the Old New Orleans. The tall
and beauteous brunette's ma
terial may be more conventional,
but there is nothing conven-
tional about her delivery of it.

descent personality and she has
a fine way with a ballad that
really brings it to life. Come to
think of it. there Is nothing at
all conventional about the
George number which usually
gets the best reception. It's
Greek folk song and she is as
effective in Greek as in any other
language. Miss George is real
George, that's what.
The Old New Orleans show
also has a pair of Sazerac Room
regulars, Singer-Pianist Les Will
liams and a superior guitarist
named Anatole, both able men.
