Photograph caption dated March 2, 1964 reads, "While Mr. and Mrs. Valentin Cruz, 10202 Jardine Ave., Sunland, haven't decided on a name for their 6-pound daughter, born Feb. 29 at Victory Hospital, North Hollywood, the child will have a birthday every year - not just once every fourth Leap Year. Mrs. Cruz said she and her husband were expecting a boy and hadn't selected a name for a daughter. She added that her own birthday is March 1 and she will celebrate the event with her daughter on that date henceforth."
