$6-Million Children’s
Hospi*n? Has Gala Opening
MEMPHIS, Tenn. oe — A $8
million hospital that laughter
built settles back to medical
routine today after a gala open
ing sprinkled with tears.
St. Research Hospital for
children was formally dedicated
Sunday by the man who founded
it — television comedian Danny
Thomas.
After four years of playing
benefit performances and spark
ing fund drives for St. Jude’s,
Danny figures there is still a
long way to go.
Thomas said he and his wife,
Rosemary, will fly to Tampa, Fla.,
where he plans to help set up a
teen-agers march to raise more
cash for his pet project.
The American Lebanese Syrian
Associated Charities, founded by
Thomas to pay the hospital’s an
nual exnenses, hopes to have teen
ager manrhes in nearly 100 cities
before the year is out.
The comedian, an American of
Lebanese extraction and a devout
Roman Catholic, said marches
would be held in Tampa, St.
Petersburg and Miami Beach dur
ing February.
St. Jude’s, a star-shaped struc
ture, cost S3.5 million to build.
Land, eouipment and other costs
added $2.5 million. It is non-sec
tarian.
The hosnital’s research will aim
at finding a cure for leukemia
and catastrophic children’s dis
eases. Treatment will be free.
