Army The Georgia State Nurses’ Association acted today to meet the Army’s URGENT CALL FOR 3.000 PROFESSIONAL NURSES WHO ARE NEEDED IMMEDI j ATELY. it was announced by Dana Hudson, president of the Georgia State Nurses’ Asocia tion. To meet the Army Nurse Corps’ critical demand for nurs es to provide adequate nursiny care for the greatly increased number of casualties in Army hospitals, the ANA has establish ed a quota of nurses to fill Geor gia’s share of these requirements j based on our nurse population. This action will be coordinated with similar quotas in other states, in accordance with the j recommendations of the Aerican Nurses’ Association Committee 'on Nursing Resources to Meet Civil and Military Needs, which | held AN EMERGENCY MEET ING on Tuesday, December 19. The ANA Committee established quotas for nurses in all states. The GSNA will prorate Geor gia’s quota of 20 to the 13 hos pitals operating Schools of Nurs ing and Request that each hos pital try to eet its quota bp re cruiting one or two nurses to the armed forces. By the end of last month, large numbers of men wounded in Korea had been admitted to the Army hospitals, it was reported by the Department of Defense. Since then, casualty lists have mounted. Reverses in Korea are immediately reflected, not only in territorial losses but, more tragically, in the numbers of men injured. Thousands have already been evacuated to the United States; more ‘will be re turned in the immediate weeks ahead. Brigadier General Paul I. Rob nson, Chief of Personnel, Army* Medical Service, told a confer i nee of national nursing leaders ■/AW/AV.V.VSVSVWWWV yonder| By VENLA BRADLEY They had been husband and wife for four whole hours. It Lad been a beautiful church wedding and reception and a send off they are not likely to ever forget, with rice throwing and tin cans tied to the car and “JUST MARRIED” placarded on the trunk. And now they were off to Ihegnselves at last, speeding down the highway to their Flor ida honeymoon. The town of Folkston, Ga., was a mile behind and they were almost to the Florida line when an unidenti fied. sharp, right-angle curve loomed up in the darkness dead ahead. Eddie, the young hus band, warned his bride that they weren’t going to make the turn. The car left the road sideways, ptill going at high speed. Then started rolling over the shoulder. It rolled over and over, on through the water-filled ditch, on through a barbed wire fence land came to rest on its crumpled side in the field beyond. Eddie scrambled out from un der cushions and baggage in the hack seat. He called frantically for Evelyn. There was no ans pwer. He climbed out through the ! broken windshield still screhm j ing her name. He heard a faint J sound. It came from up the road and he ran toward it. There, in 4 he headlights of another car, he could see Evelyn standing in the ditch in water up to her knees, her clothes torn and wet. Evelvn had been thrown from the car on its first turning roll. Ehe remembered falling from the air and landing in the icy water. The car travelling behind them had stopped. They carried them to a doctor for first aid. I They both had escaped with only I scratches and bruises. | The -T telephoned their folks in Macon they were all right but Ghe car was demolished beyond j recognition. Just one little sad note J , would like to add. As a wedding present, I had loaned them my , car to So Ojj their honeymoon. | a t the Office of the Surgeon !
