He said studies indicated noise around Deaconess hospital would "be less with the freeway in front than the present noise level at Sacred Heart hospital." Oriard made sound studies around Spokane and Seattle hospitals and near a Seattle freeway route. He said hospitals along heavy traffic routes in Seattle "appear to be doing very well with each of them planning expansion programs." Deaconess officials have protested the freeway route on the grounds increased noise would prove detrimental to patients and perhaps keep patients away.

Strange had claimed in an appeal that he was totally disabled in an accident on a Lind construction job In February, 1953, when he was 47. He said he had twisted his back while working and would be unable to follow his occupation as lather. A full disability rating would have entitled him to a pension, rather than a smaller sum.

December 3 the two will cele brate their 25th wedding aria this is an awful way to spend it!" They Remember "the King was carried on the hood of the car a short distance before the auto stopped skidding, Delp said.
