OUR NURSES WIN AGAIN! $536,650 PLEDGED TO HOSPITAL Fifty-five civic and philanthropic leaders pledged $536,650 for the "Wrap-Up" cam- paign to "finish the job of building one of America's finest medical institutions," at a dinner in the Mark C. Steinberg Hospital auditorium on Tuesday, December 4th, sponsored by Harry Edison, Sydney M. Shoenberg, Millard A. Waldheim, Richard K. Weil, and Charles H. Yalem. I. E. Goldstein served as chairman of the "Wrap-Up" Campaign Committee. Mem- bers of the committee were Major B. Ein- stein, John M. Shoenberg, Louis Tiger, Millard A. Waldheim, and Richard K. Weil, President of the Hospital. The limited drive, authorized by the Jew- ish Federation of Saint Louis, has a goal of $1,050,000. $750,000 of this amount is re- quired to complete financing of the basic building and remodeling program, and an additional $300,000 is needed to provide such essential additions as air conditioning and soundproofing the Mark C. Steinberg Memorial Hospital wing, construction of a surgical pathology laboratory, improvements in the Division of Obstetrics and Gynecol- ogy, and installation of special equipment which will qualify the Hospital for a $100,000 government grant. Nurses Capped Feb. 14 The traditional "Candlelight Service" of the Jewish Hospital School of Nursing will be held on Thursday, February 14th at 8 P.M. in the United Hebrew Temple audi- torium, 225 South Skinker.
