Mrs. McCullough Joins Casa Colina Nursing Staff Mrs. Mildred Hickey McCullough, R.N., has joined the staff at Casa Colina as director of nurses, it was announced today by Odetta R.

Presbyterian Play Sunday, Features Georgia Lee Georgia Lee, popular young star of television, radio and motion pictures, will play the leading role in the premiere showing of "The Flame" in Anaheim next Sunday evening at the First Presbyterian church. This full color motion picture is a completely documented first hand record of the drama, tragedy and faith of the Korean people today and of our American soldiers who fight a Communist enemy by night and the starvation of orphaned children by day. This brilliant young actress has for a number of years been under contract to various studios of Hollywood playing a variety of roles. Her radio and television credits have been many. She starred in her own TV show called "The Georgia Lee Show" and also in such shows as A. B. C.'s TV show, "Stage Two Review" and K. T. L. A.'s "Showboat" plus many other national and local shows. In personal life, Georgia Lee is Mrs. Ralph Hoopes. She and her husband met in the Warner Bros lot during the filming of 'Janie' and later after Ralph returned from the services, they were married. In the early part of 1950, Georgia Lee and Ralph attended a meeting of the Hollywood Christian group. There, for the first time they heard the true gospel and after that meeting they accepted Christ as their personal saviour. Since that time they have been making great strides in Christian work. They gave up their professional careers in order to devote all their time and talents to Christian activities. Georgia Lee's first assignment was a starring role in Dr. Bob Pierce's true story of the great Korean mission field called "The Flame," and since her wonderful success in this film, many Christian producing organizations have called upon her for various roles. Georgia Lee's most current Chris- Fullerton Toastmistress Club Hears High School Speakers Duane Johnson, speech instructor, Fullerton union high school, presented two of his students as guest speakers at Toastmistress club regular meeting held in the club center, Monday evening. Virginia Arkisco spoke on narcotics, the hydra-headed monster assailant the youth of today. She pleaded for parents to awake to the danger that confrotns their children; and stressed the necessity of joining their efforts with those of teachers, law enforcement officers and other agencies fighting to combat this evil which is gnawing at the very heart of home-life, attacking our teen-age children, leading them to destruction and crime. The other speaker, Carolyn Kibbe, gave an interesting dissertation of the origin of St. Valentine's day and the custom of sending valentines to our friends and loved ones. President Rena Mansfield, general proprietor of Rena's Tots-to-Teens store, introduced two guests, Mrs. Margaret Wright and Mrs. Janet Chadwick. Mrs. Ethel Corbett, club representative, gave a report on her attendance at the last regional council meeting. She spoke of the benefits to be gained through the council, and said that the area speak-off will be held in Tustin at the Presbyterian church March 19 at 7:30 p.m. Topic mistress, Agnes MacPhee asked Genevieve Hunt, an exponent in both vocal and instrumental music, whether or not radio and television have done much to educate the general public in appreciation and understanding of opera and classical music. It was Mrs. Hunt's opinion that radio and television have been of great cultural value and classical music is gaining ground in the hearts of the listening public, but there will always be those who love popular music, too. Miss Joyce Wilson, Ethel Corbett, Rena Mansfield, Ann McDonnell and Ricki Miller is a fine addition to our staff and highly qualified to direct the nursing activities," said Miss Gover. "As director of nurses she will have charge of the care of the children at all times except when they are having physical or occupational therapy or are in school. She will try to see that all the needs of each child are met." Another addition to the staff is Mrs. Dorothy Perry, dietitian. Mrs. Perry was a hospital dietitian before her marriage and has accepted a part time position at the rehabilitation center, Miss Gover said. Hard pressed at Guilford county house, Gen. Cornwalls in the Revolution fired canon at a melee of his own men and the Americans figuring the British could take it better than their enemies. The strategem was bloody but it worked. Louella Olson, Toastmistress on the evening called on Grace Reed for her maiden speech. "A Southern Goes West" was the title of Mrs. Reed's speech. She relates her experience in coming from the "deep" south (southern Alabama to California), her advent into employment in the banking business and the joy of meeting her ideal male whom she later married while still engaged with the duets of the "money changers." Presiden Rena Mansfield announced there would be a board meeting Wednesday, Feb. 18, 7:30 p.m.at the home of Ardis Bridgford. Joyce Wilson, teacher. Sea Beach school, was lexicologist. She gave many timely tips on grammar, speech technique and parliamentary law. Miss Wilson complained the speakers of the evening on their fine choice of descriptive words without being verbose or repetitive. She was unstinting in her praise of the process being made in speechecraft by the group. Miss Wilson also evaluated the speeches of Virginia Akisco and Carolyn Kibbe and raced them "tops." Mrs. Ethel Corbett, as evaluator of the evening, heaped coniums on everyone. She was most constructive in her analysis of the speeches and the speakers and said advancement in the area of public speaking was being made by leaps and bounds. Ann McDonnell, as timekeeper, reported that everyone knew Georgia Lee's first assignment was a starring role in Dr. Bob Pierce's true story of the great Korean mission field called "The Flame," and since her wonderful success in this film, many Christian producing organizations have called upon her for various roles. Georgia Lee's most current Christian motion picture is "Oiltown." U.S.A., produced and directed by Dick Ross of Great Commission Films for the Billy Graham Evangelistic association. Georgia Lee in the past two years has traveled many thousands of miles throughout the United States giving her testimony in song and word. She is preparing at this time to record for a Christian recording firm. Her testimony and her singing thrilled a congregation of 60,000 in the Rice bowl in Houston, Tex., this last summer where she appeared with Billy Graham and his evangelistic team in their Houston campaign. Georgia Lee is quite active in the Hollywood Christian group along with her husband, Ralph. Her consecrated Christian life coupled with her charming personality has won for her millions of friends throughout the United States among both the Christian and non-Christian people. Her favorite passage of Scripture is Romans 12: 1-2 which has been her guide and inspiration in all her Christian life and activities. In the process of restoring colonial Williamsburg, Pa., 423 old buildings have been restored and 616 more recent structures torn down or removed from the restored area. A blizzard preceded the William Howard Taft inauguration parade and an army of shovelers had to clear the streets before it could march. Topic must include Genevieve Hunt, an exponent in both vocal and instrumental music, whether or not radio and television have done much to educate the general public in appreciation and understanding of opera and classical music. It was Mrs. Hunt's opinion that radio and television have been of great cultural value and classical music is gaining ground in the hearts of the listening public, but there will always be those who love popular music, too. Miss Joyce Wilson, Ethel Corbett, Rena Mansfield, Ann McDonnell and Pinky Miller were of the same opinion. They all agreed that culture was coming to the fore, however. Mrs. Ann McDonnell was asked to describe her most thrilling moment on her vacation trip to Hawaii. Says Ann, "the entire trip was so thrilling that it would be difficult to pick out one special moment." Bess Lyman was questioning her vacation plans. California being what it is and Orange county so fine, Miss Lyman intends to rusticate right here.
