"' L Northern Illinois Medical Center (McHenry Hospital) will hold an open house Sunday, Nov. 6, from 2 to 4 p.m. to introduce its new birthing room to the public. The birthing room, which will be available to ex­ pectant parents Nov. 8, was made possible at this time by an $11,000 donation from the auxiliary to Northern Illinois Medical Center. Tours of the birthing room will be conducted by obstetrics department nursing personnel during the open house hours, and refreshments will be served in the hospital cafeteria. An auxiliary volunteer will be in the hospital lobby to direct visitors to the obstetrics department.
