It was also learned that it will be necessary to purchase an air conditioning unit for the operating and obstetrical sec- tion at a cost of $3, 750. The executive committee has al- ready approved the necessary wiring for this unit since the job had to be done while walls were still open. The cost of wiring will be $800. Since some of these expen- ditures are extras to the origin- al contract and would not be covered by the contingency al- lowance, the administrator, Mrs. I. E. Morrey, Mr. Cous- ins and Mr. Matsui of the archi- tectural firm will meet with officials of OHSC this week to discuss the additional financ- ing which will be required. 756/0 PAID Mrs. Morrey said that pay- ments made to date amount to about three-quarters of the to- tal cost, some $569, 687. Most of the furnishings are still to be purchased and this will be a sizeable amount.

Only one major vacancy exists at the present time, that of chief x- ray technician. All supervisory positions have been filled. Thir- teen graduate nurses working full time and 17 graduates on a part-time basis form the nuc- leus of the nursing staff, assist- ed by 49 full time registered nursing assistants, 19 part-time RNA's, 3 full time nursing as- sistants, 2 part time NA's and? full time orderlies. Some of the RNA's will be leaving short- ly, since their number includes those who recently graduated from the training school. The graduating class has re- ceived word that all who wrote their examinations for registra- tion passed, about 500/0 of them with honors. The report also included the information that in addition to the one man from the engineer- ing staff who is on duty at night, at least one orderly and usually two are on duty at night.
