Coeds are most urgently needed to perform simple tasks such as answer- ing hospital calls, filling Water pitchers and changing flowers, wrap- ping supplies, winding silk in the op- erating rooms and performing simple desk jobs such as charting tempera- tures. Equally under-staffed is the office. Women are needed for assistance in tpying, mimeographing and filing: The hour between 5 p.m. and 6 p.m. is the busiest at the hospital because of the passing of dinner trays. Help at this time is most greatly appreciated. Women, not presently enrolled in a hospital project, who would be inter- ested in this endeavor, may contact Miss Sternfels at 23119 or Miss Ethel McCormick, in the undergraduate of- fice of the League.
