Anaheim Gazette TUESDAY, JANUARY 30, 1951 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA Murdy Optimistic On Outlook for Pres. Hospital An encouraging outlook for the Hoag Memorial Hospital-Presbyterian to be built at Costa Mesa was given by John Murdy, Jr., president of the hospital board, at the annual meeting Thursday evening. Murdy reviewed the progress of the organization since its start in 1943, at the suggestion of the Rev. Brahms whose plan was for a small hospital at Laguna Beach to serve the Orange county coast. Unable to secure a site there, Murdy told of the plan to bring together all the Presbyterian churches in the county and the campaigns for funds for a larger hospital under the county-wide plan. He referred to the breakdown of the first fund drive, then the second campaign, headed by the Rev. O. Scott McFarland, which secured cash and pledges of $594,000.00 including an outstanding gift of $100,000 from Glenn Martin. He next referred to requests made for state and federal help and how these appeals had been deferred by the State board due to the many demands for help from areas said to be in more urgent need. President Murdy told of the offer from Mrs. George Grant Hoag Anaheim Gazette by JOHN S. NEUBAUER And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.—Mark 16:15.

Half of them must have been to Earnest Moeller. Dick Morley is to be congratulated. Wisely, he isn't soliciting-the business men for March of Dimes' funds.

President Murdy told of the offer from Mrs. George Grant Hoag and how, through her and the help of the Hoag foundation, a donation of $500,000 in memory of George Grant Hoag was assured under a plan to join the hospital plans of the foundation and those of the church group by equal interest in the board of directors. He mentioned the selection of R. L. Bacon, for 13 years administrator of the hospital when pital, to act as advisor and administrat or of the hospital when built. He said it would require added funds to build the type and size of hospital now decided upon. The 75 bed institution would now cost about $1,212,000 complete. Toward this sum the hospital board has $1,051,625. After allowing for a small loss on pledges due to death, etc., Murdy suggested from $150,000 to $200,000 would be needed to build and furnish complete. He said he hoped drawings and specifications would be completed in time to call for bids about April or May. He allowed one year to fifteen months for construction. Murdy also mentioned the appointment of a Medical Advisory committee, nominated by the Orange County Medical association. This committee includes Drs. Wightman, Whittaker, Monaco, Reeder, Tedstrom, Maxwell and Hall. They are now advising and will serve as the nucleus of the medical staff when the hospital is in operation.
