Moreover, many enthusias- tically expressed their interest in D.S.O. as well as world affairs by filling Red Cross boxes for Viet- namese children. This program proved to be an exciting and challenging experience for the many girls who participated. Throughout the year, we continued the support of and correspondance with a foster child, Lourds Gonzaga, of the Philippines. In the spring, the three main D.S.O. projects con- sisting of the general fund raising project, the Northfield speakers, and the Children ' s Theater were very successfully carried out. D.S.O. ended the 1965-66 season, satisfied that its basic goals had been achieved, and eagerly looking forward to an even more successful year. Each year volunteer programs at the Englewood Hospital and Memorial House are offered for those who wish to participate. At the hospital one may fill a number of positions from waitress in the Hos- pitality Shop to nurse ' s aide on the floors. In Me- morial House one may offer her services and be a private tutor, a librarian, or even a group teacher. This year, some of those who wished, were per- mitted to help teachers at the Leonard Johnson Day Nursery School care for pre-school children. Those who were unable to do volunteer work on a regular weekly basis were able to show their con- cern in the activities of D.S.O. by participating in Englewood ' s annual Heart Fund drive, or by filling one of the Christmas stockings which are sent each 71
