Pictured is a man identified as Tommie Thompson, known as 'Tinker Tommie,' of 11725 Hamlin St., in North Hollywood. Mr. Thomson, 60, is a bachelor who is willing to give everything he owns to children - if he can just be sure of being near them for the rest of his life. He figures his abilities as an electrician and as a repairman would make him valuable around a hospital. Photograph dated November 8, 1950.
