Guided by Director Norm Ed- mondson, the cast is preparing for opening night -- Tuesday, Nov. 10 in the McLaughlin - Li- brary Theatre. The backstage people have been equally busy, constructing, painting and erecting the set. The plays setting is in a modern-day mid-western univer- sity town. The action takes place in the livingroom of the professor and his wife, the two main characters, Ray Lang- ridge has designed a set which is realistic, showing the home of the professor. The job of dressing the set and attending and bring the total number of Manor residents to 305. The 100- bed addition will house 50 bed- care residents and 50 normal- care persons. "The addition will probably mean & one-quarter to one-third increase in the housekeeping, kitchen, laundry and nursing staff," he said. There are.now 3? full-time reg- istered and practical nurses on the staff. Mr, Johns said present resi- dents will be given first chance to move 'into the new wing. Then, new residents will be ac- cepted on the basis of applica- tion seniority. He estimated that the waiting list has somewhere between 80) 4 and 100 names. FINAL STAGE The new wing will be the final stage of Hillsdale Manor's archi- tectural design. Current facili- ties were opened Aug. 20, 1960. - Residents at the Manor range in age from 35 to 99. The oldest, 100th birthday Nov. 24. Although) the provincial government's Homes for the Aged Act stipu- lates that the age for entry under normal circumstances be 60, a special clause in the act permits younger disabled per- ---- sons to be admitted provided they cannot be cared for else- where. An admission of this type has to be approved by Ontario's wel- fare minister, Louis P. Cecile, Mr. Johns said. The new wing will have a crafts and sewing room and a beauty salon, The room present- ly used for a beauty salon will be used for accommodation for future nursing services. Mr, Johns said that if another home for the aged is built in the future thought should be given to building it adjacent to Hills- dale Manor. The Manor is located on a 15- acre site which is beside 35 acres of city-owned park land. He suggested that one home could specialize in bed care and the other in normal care. "It would save the city money in administration and thain- tenance costs,"' he said. The Manor is governed by a committee headed by Alderman Cecil Bint. Other members of the' committee are Mayor Lyman Gifford, Ald. John Brady, Ald. Norman Down and Ald. John Dyer.
