SPOOKY AFFAIR: Mischief will reign supreme on the floors of University Hospital tonight when every nurse and doctor caught hanging around is bound to be scared by witches and wild animals from the pediatric ward, Children's Rehabilitation Center and Children Psychiatric Hospital. The Halloween creatures will be wandering up and down corridors, knocking on doors and asking for treats. Children in the psychiatric section will be treated to a Halloween fair, with hospital personnel manning the booths, directing games and handing out prizes. Miss Jean Arndt, head nurse of the Children's Rehabilitation Center, gives the children a "taste" of the fun to come when they are taken around the hospital in beds, stretchers, and wheelchairs tonight. Among the "tricks or treaters" will be Darlene Paul (in bed), witch Kathy Brancheau, Lynette Lawrence, the leopard in the wheelchair, elephant Mike Lamb, and little Bill Stockard, who can't wait for that sucker.
