' Three record players have been obtained for the hospital patients through the Library of Congress, Division cf Blind and Physical Handicapped for the use by the patients, according to officials. of-ficials. A good selection of books on records have also been received with new "volumes" obtained each week to ten days. At present, pre-sent, there are eight books ranging rang-ing from western to romance and children's selections. Mrs. Loren Spencer, a Pink Lady at the hospital, is in charge of obtaining and returning the records.

Now they can listen to a book on record, shutting shut-ting it off when they desire and turning it back on when ready. "True Grit" and "Alias Butch Cassidy" have proven the most popular books for the male patients pa-tients to date with "Hello, Miss Dove" and "Goodbye, Mr. Chips" among those finding favor with the ladies. Selections for the children have included the "Adventures "Ad-ventures of Tom Sawver" and "The Haunted Book Shop." The project is under the direction di-rection of the Pink Ladies at the hospital.
