wrote.
Impossible 10 Change

THE new building of 248 beds,

War II. Program wise. it will be
almost 20 years old when it is

Follows Earlier Report

Idemning the general administra

That report attacked admins

inadequate and incompetent.

however, dealt mostly with the
physical plant of the hospital.
A second part of the report
yesterday took up the Glenn Dale

not be ready for a few more
months.
"It is very late, but not tor
late to begin to be orderly or
this campus" the report de.
clared as it attacked planning
of the hospitals numerous build
ings from the beginning anc
even present-day planning.
A highlight of the report wa!
the recommendation that tht
three principal buildings-the
surgical, medical and pulmonary
disease buildings-be combined
into one. thus adding a great
deal more bed space for the in.
stitution
No OvercrOwding Relief
At present, the surveyors de-
clared. because of the distance
between the divisions and the
lack of lateral connection or
all floors between buildings
there is no means by which the
overcrowding of one division
can be relieved by utilizing the
vacant beds of other units"
The hospital. it added, should
be centralized around the three
principal patient buildings which
would be consolidated. Certain
specialized areas of medicine
such as the children's the ma
ternity and genealogical divi-
sion should be moved into this
area. AT present they are spread
out.
The patients, too. should be
divided up into categorieS. with
sections being devoted to the
very sick requiring intensive
attention, land possibly for pa
tients who are subject to special
teaching and research"
About these three unified build
ings the surveyors would con-
struct a base to house support
ing services. including the X
ray department now inconven-
iently situated. the emergency
unit, the outpatient department
and other service units.
For Chronically iii
Special facilities should be set
up for the chronically Ill, who do
not need all of the intensive
services of the general hospital
ward. the surveyors said.
Inc report recommended
switching present patients
around so that a group of struc-
lures could be used for what
would amount to a chronic dis
ease hospital within a hospital
All of this. the surveyors said
would cost some 81 million. al
though a program without all of
the proposed consolidation could
be handled for some S4.3 million.

foresight OF planners who de-
signed the new psychiatric build
ing. which is still under con-
Struction.

FINE WEATHER AND
GOOD LUCK, FIRST
DAY, DEER SEASON

Many fine bucks were seen out
ward bound Tuesday afternoon, the
first day of the deer season, when
hunters swarmed into Hyde and
Dare counties. One travelling east
ward would often meet a proud car
bearing a big buck roped across
the hood.
Hunters were favored with fine
weather on this 18th day Of Octo-
Der and they found the woods and
swamps not too wet. The hunting
continued Tuesday.
Rooming houses caring for hunt
ing parties and guides who serve
deer hunters have been having
good business this week, although
more and more, hunters are COM
ing with their own equipment, and
relying on themselves and friends
for aid in stalking the deer, or
driving him from the woods.
Rev. L. E. Aitken of Manteo is
reported to have killed buck at
East Lake. On Tuesday, Sam Bur-
rus of Nags Head and Carroll Ber-
ry of Manteo, hunting with Cecil
Berry and Willie Wilson in Hyde
County each killed a deer, weights

NO CONSOLATION
FROM HODGES FOR
BRIDGE SEEKERS
Governor Would Have Told En-
Not to Come. Had They
Advised Him

A delegation from the Southern
Albemarle Association called on
Governor Hodges lase week, but
they got little consolation from
the Governor for their plea for
construction of a bridge over Alli-
gator River. The Governor was
consoling enough to tell the party
that had they advised him for what
they sought the appointment, he
would have saved them the ex-
pense of a trip to Raleigh by tell
ing them it was no use to come
for the purpose outlined.
Governor Hodges was of the
impression that the Southern Albe-
marie delegation wanted to come
up to talk to him about the pos
sibility of promoting the develop
ment of industry in the South
Albemarle.
Just how the trip got shaped up
to go to Raleigh is somewhat of a
mystery. H. o. Chesson, of Cres-
well, Secretary of the Association,
is reported to have advised num-
Der of key men that the Governor
was ready now to talk turkey, with
a group from the Association,
about the bridge.
1t would have been change of
policy indeed, for at no time since
becoming Governor has Mr.. Hod-
ges indicated that he favored
building any bridge across Alliga-
tor River unless it be a toll bridge,
and anyone who is informed at all
knows that not even Mr.. Hodges
under existing state law could do
that now. for it would require leg
islation if then possible, and legis-
lation cannot be passed before
1859. Governor Hodges is not the
man to waste his own time, busy
as he is, in order to waste other
peoples time.
Some of the party came away
from the interview, giving the gov
ernor credit for his frankness, but
discomfited at having been led
astray, and required to leave
pressing affairs at home which
needed their attention.
