Washington area hospitals
have charitably opened their
storage room doors to donate
more than $4,000 worth of
equipment to needy hospitals
in Costa Rica.
The equipment, most of
which is obsolete by American
hospital standards but still in
good condition, consists of X
ray machines, incubators. basi-
nettes, wheel chairs, micro
scopes and hundreds Of other
articles for % hospitals and ru-
raj clinics in the Central Amer
ican republic.
In addition to the equipment
donations, the District of Co.
lumbia Trucking Association
has agreed to transport the
articles free to Baltimore and
the United Fruit Company has
promised to make the transfer
to Costa Rica.
Sparked by ID. c. Lawyer
The idea was originated by
Stanley PoSner, a Washington
lawyer who has been involved
in Latin American affairs for
many years. Mr.. Posner made
the suggestion to DR.. Claudio
Orlich, the chief Of the Costa
Rican hospital system who is
here with his wife for two
weeks to attend a Pan Ameri-
can Health Organization meet
ing.
DR.. Orlich explained that, be-
cause of low coffee prices, upon
which Costa Rica depends for
a great deal Of her national in
come, many hospitals were un-
der equipped and in great need
OF modern devices.
Mr.. PoSner and DR.. Orlich
contacted Russell Horton, the
assistant administrator Of the
Suburban Hospital in Bethesda.
who found that the hospital
had much equipment that was
outmoded but which had no re-
sale price.
Plastic Now Used
This included IS old iron
basinettes which the hospital
had replaced with plastic de-
vices. DR.. Orlich said, for ex-
ample, that the lack of basi-
nettes IN Costa Rica had re-
suited in some infant deaths.
Without them. he said, the
children slept with the mothers
and often were smothered when
the women turned over in their
sleep.
Mr.. Posner said that the
equipment donated by the SUBJ
urban Hospital. If purchased
new. would have cost about
$4,000.
Mr.. Horton then contacted
a large Washington hospital
which has Just finished con-
Verting much of its obsolete
equipment. That hospital do
mated a portable X-ray ma
chine and two large Picker x
ray machines. Edward Pugh.

Our Body
We have just finished studying
about our body. We have learned
many things about our body. We
have learned what 1t can do and
what makes 1t work.
We have a building Of bones,
our skeleton. Without bones you
would be like a rag doll. We have
muscles and they hold our bone S
together and let us move. Our
brain lets us decide which way
we want to move. It fills most Of
our head. Our brain is more won-
derful than the brain Of any
animal. We have many nerves
which are really tiny pathways
to your brain. The send mes
'sages to our brain.
When look at you, see a
layer Of skin that covers you all
over. / also see two eyes that
are doorways to the brain to help
you see. see two ears but I
know that I really have six Of
these. see your nose that helps
you smell what Mother is cooking.
We learned that we grow be-
cause Of the food we eat. We have
a digestive system that changes
the food we eat so that we can
grow. After our food is changed,
the blood carries 1t to all parts
Of our body. It travels through
veins or vessels.
Inside our chest we have a
heart that pumps the blood to
our body. It never stops pump

Plan To Visit
r. D Delaware

An opportunity to witness a
Civil War sham battle and to
browse through the dungeons Of
a Civil War fortress prison will
be afforded those who visit his
toric Fort Delaware on June 9,
advises the Delaware State De-
velopment Department.
The fort, located on Pea Patch
Island in the Delaware River off
Delaware City, is huge, grim
pile Of granite and brick built
in the period from 1848 to 1859
and used as prison for Confed-
crates captured in the battles
of 1862 to 1865.
This year the Delaware State
Park Commission is sponsoring
an elaborate "battle" to be put
on by units of the North-South
Skirmtsh Association. 1t is be-
lieved that this will be the only
full scale battle re-enactment to
be given anywhere IN the coun-
try this year.
There will be three Northern
and four Southern outfits par
ticipating, but each side will
have about the same number Of
men. Union outfits will be: The
First Delaware Blues, from Will
mington; the Third U. S. Infantry
from Lancaster, Pa, and the
118th Pennsylvania Infantry,
Havertown, Pa.
The Confederate units will
comprise the Third Maryland

Artillery of Elkton; Company B
"Maryland Guard" Of the 21st
Virginia Infantry from Annapolis
the Baltimore Rifles, First
Maryland Regiment from Balti-
more, and the Hampton Legion of
South Carolina from Philadel-
phia.
During the "battle" some
Confederate prisoners will eff
feet an escape from the dungeons
and join "invading Confederate
troops" "Union troops" will
subsequently repel the "invad-
ers" and recapture the prison.
ers. According to some his
torians an uprising of Confed-
crate prisoners was actually
planned in 1854 Cat a time when
Confederate troops were push
ing towards Washington but fail
ed to materialize.
The "battle" will be proceeded
by drills, guard mounts, and
fife and drum concerts starting
at 1880 am. After. the battle.
there will be demonstration fir
ing Of cannon and mortars. The
battle will take place on the
|greensward surrounding the fort.
Visitors will also have an op-
portunity to explore the fort It
self with its ancient gun en-
brasures, magazines, mess
halls, kitchens, and spooky cor
ridors. The dungeons are reach
ed through dimly lighted, narrow
passageways. In one dungeon the
names and regiments of Con-
federate prisoners and the dates
they scratched on the wall can
still be seen.
The charge for transportation
by boat to the island from Del
aware City and return and for
the sham battle will be $1.50
for adults and 81 for children.
AS attendance will be limited be-
cause Of transportation facilities

The element silicon has q
chemical structure very similar

binations which have proved OF
great value.
The great difficulty has been
