24 July 9, 1963 The Ottawa Citizen Nurses clad in gingham WINNIPEG (CP) Colored gingham dresses, worn by nurses on a month's trial basis at Children's Hospital here have proved so successful their use is to be expanded into other wards. Patricia Scorer, nursing director at the hospital, said eight nurses in one ward have switched to the dresses completely and others will follow in the near future. The dresses, pink and blue, were adapted because it was found young children were scared of the regulation white uniform. Miss Scorer said publicity given the experiment resulted in a flood of letters from many parts of Canada and the United States. Some U.S.

nursing officials congratulated the hospital and asked for detailed information on the idea. But she said doctors at the hospital reacted in a surprising way. "To our astonishment the young interns and young doctors are inclined to oppose the idea, while doctors who aren't quite as young anymore find it excellent." Patient reaction has been favorable, she said. United Church Women meet CARDINAL (Special) -The general meeting of the United Church Women was held with Mrs. A.

A highlight of the closing session of the Ontario Provincial CWL Council's convention at the Chateau Laurier yesterday was the election of new officers for the coming year.

CWL insular in outlook says national president By Brenda Large Citizen women's writer "CWL groups have been very insular in their outlook," says Mrs. Hermon Stevens, national president the Catholic Women's League of Canada. "Members must learn to get outside the parish work which they do so well, and project their viewpoint into their communities." In Ottawa to attend the annual convention of the Ontario Provincial Council of the Catholic Women's League, Mrs.

Stevens comments that her greatest hope for the CWL is an increase in members. "At the present time our total national membership is more than 146,000, and I feel we could have 300,000 memship, of course, we would be bers. With increased me memberable to contribute that much more to community work." Mrs. Stevens also would like to see the CWL take an active part in Canada's Centennial year celebrations, and this subject will be taken up at the national CWL conference to be held from Aug. 17 to 22 in Calgary.

The national president, who has been active in the CWL since 1926, stresses that teamwork among the different church and welfare groups in a community can accomplish much that individual groups are unable to do. She says the power of teamwork was recently demonstrated in her native city, Calgary, when an interdenominational "Committee for Decent Literature" was formed to campaign against salacious literature on newsstands. Imposed fine As a result of the committee's work, the provincial attorney general imposed a fine of $400 on one wholesale distributor, and withdrew all books by one particular publisher from circulation. "It's a good example of what can be done if CWL members work with other groups," says Mrs. Stevens.

"I would like to see such community groups formed all over Canada to campaign against indecent literature. We don't set ourselves up as censors, but we can get the government to enforce censorship legislation." Mrs. Stevens sets a rugged pace for her fellow CWL members. She has held a fulltime job as legal editor for a law publishing firm in Calgary for the past 46 years and served as a Calgary alderman for seven years, acting as an associate director of the Calgary Stampede during that time. She was named "Citizen of the Year" by the Calgary Junior Chamber of Commerce in 1958 for her work with welfare organizations, and is also a past president of the Calgary Branch of the Canadian Women's Press Club.

The mother of two adopted children, and grandmother of four, Mrs. Stevens has served on the national CWL council since 1947, holding the posts of convener of education, citizenship and organization, before being elected national president last August. She plans to retire from her legal editor's position this year, but will keep up her CWL activities. "And," says Mrs. Stevens, "my husband and I would like to take a real holiday soon.

Lately I've been spending all my time at CWL conventions, SO its a good thing I enjoy them." 200 arrive in Ottawa for golf championships Some 200 women from the 10 provinces of Canada and from as far away as California, are arriving in Ottawa for the 50th annual tournaments of the Canadian Ladies Golf Union. Mrs. W. E. Bickley of Montreal, national president, will be on hand to officially open the tournaments Wednesday evening at the Rivermead Golf Club.

Miss Florence Harvey, founder of the Union in 1913, and winner of the Canadian championships in 1903 and 1904, will raise the Union flag at the ceremony. The closed, junior championship and the interprovincial team matches will get underway Thursday at the Rivermead and the open championships will open next week at the Royal Ottawa Golf Club. The games were held last year in Manitoba. PROGRESS FEATURED AT BRAND MORGAN'S CLOTHES MEN'S SHOP Ontario CWL council elects Toronto woman By the Canadian Press Mrs. Ward Markle of Toronto became president of the Ontario Council of the Catholic Women's League at the final session of the council's 16th annual meeting here Monday.

Mrs. Markle succeeds Mrs. Mel Walters of London, Ont. Other members of the executive are: first vice-president, Mrs. Eldon Keon, Bryson, second vice-president, Mrs.

B. A. McNamee, Kingston; third vice-president, Mrs. R. J.

Ellinghausen, Owen Sound; recording secretary, Miss Mary Donoghue, Peterborough; corresponding secretary, Mrs. Robert Doyle, Chatham; and treasurer, Mrs. I. L. Obergh, Port Arthur.

The new president joined the CWL at Toronto about 20 years ago. She believes that reports given at the meeting show that league members take part in many community projects apart from their league work. Her own interests are broad and she serves either on executive or board of the Indian Eskimo Association of Canada, the Canadian Red Cross, CARE of Canada, Catholic Immigrant Services of Canada, and the International Institute. She is also on the executive of the Social Planning Council for Metropolitan Toronto and Toronto's Catholic Family Services. The slim attractive president is the mother of four married children and has 15 grandchildren.
