Description
There is overcrowding at Los Angeles County General Hospital. Here, nurse Anna McGee attends patients housed in a corridor because of over-crowding in the orthopedic section. Other patients wait in wheelchairs for the physical therapist's attention. Proposition A on the election ballot calls for a $15,466,000 bond issue to expand certain facilities.
