Dr.

Arthur Nelson, hospital medical director, said the program would add 125 staff positions. He said the Board of Supervisors is prepared to fill the added positions. A subcommittee report said the design of the present facility hindered the hospital's ability to deliver quality care and said the expansion would be needed in the future for proper operation. Brian Lockwood, St. Luke's Administrator, told the committee the hospital's current X-ray facility is on the second floor, creating problems for emergency patients.

He said the hospital had received a $72,300 donation, which would be used to pay most of the cost of the new facility. The Phoenix Fire Department is investigating the possibility of arson in a fire Wednesday in an East High School classroom. A Phoenix Union High School District spokesman said someone set a fire in a social studies classroom Wednesday afternoon. A student discovered the fire about 1:15 p.m., he said. Books, maps and other classroom materials were destroyed and walls scorched, resulting in an estimated $1,000 damage, the spokesman said.

"The fire must have been arson," Fire Capt Richard Pickering said. Pickering credited two unidentified students for preventing more damage. "These two had the presence of mind to get the school fire hose and extinguish the fire. It was out by the time we got to the scene," he said.
