Charles Watson, also of Hewlett, sweeps up. BROOKLYN EAGLE, SUNDAY, JULY 23, 1944 LOOKING NATURAL- Mrs. H. L. Daingerfield Lewis does a crayon drawing of Martin Knell, seaman a native of Philadelphia.

Mrs. Lewis donates the drawings she makes of the sailors and nurses. She is known as Jessie Voss Lewis, in artistic circles, "It's Solid-Super-Four Point (navy for 100 percent). Such was the reaction of the majority of convalescent seamen from the U. S.

Naval Hospital at St. Albans we found upon our visit to the Beach Club operated by the South Shore Branch of the Citizens' Committee for the Army and Navy, at Atlantic Beach. Tops to All the Boys "I've been in the navy for three years and touched many a port but this is tops," said one Irish lad, whose eyes twinkled despite his crutches, A tall, handsome seaman from San Diego, who looked more like a movie actor than a stevedore, his job in civilian life, said, "they really go all the way here." Anothe clean-cut youngster sounded off "southern hospitality isn't in the running compared to this layout. I sure would like to write a letter to the lady who thought of this place and tell her how the boys back at the hospital appreciate everything that is being done for them. It certainly is a Godsend to visit such a spot as this as a relief from the monotony of the wards--and what's more wonderful is that it's all 'for What a place! I'm going to be a civilan in a few weeks and I sure wish I had a lifetime pass." W.

S. Pettit Instigated Plan To William S. Pettit, promient Far Rockaway attorney, goes the credit for conceiving the Idea of the Beach Club as a recuperative center. He suggested his plan to the Title Guarantee and Trust Company, which generously gave the use of the former Garden City Beach Club for the purpose. Capt.

Lester Pratt, commandant at the U. S. Naval Hospital at St. Albans approved and the Citizens' Committee for the Army and Navy at Cedarhurst, raised the money to operate the Beach Club through voluntary contributions and an allotment from the Five Towns Community Chest. The Beach Club, which opened on June 3, and will continue through Sept.

16, is proving even more successful than its sponsors had hoped. Mrs. Morris Douw Ferris of Lawrence is chairman of the Citizens' Committee and top executive. It is her marked executive ability that has been largely responsible for the smooth co-ordination of this splendid undertaking. Key Chairmen Assist Mrs.

Beverley R. Robinson of Lawrence is general club chairman. Officially she is a grievance committee of one to whom the individual committee chairmen bring problems concerning the operation of the club. The key committee chairmen who are on tap, assisted by day captains, to provide the boys with whatever they wish are: Miss Caroline Hale, who supervised one of the canning kitchens operated in the Five Towns last year, and Mrs. Bromley Stone, canteen; Mrs.

William J. Kupper, recreation; Mrs. Morgan S. Smith, chairman of the Operating Committee of the Long Beach U. S.

beach chairman; Mrs. Samuel Uffner, booths; Mrs. Jack Israel, transportation, and Mrs. Edward S. Bentley, volunteers.

Many Diversions Supplied Every possible diversion is provided for the boys at the club, where there is total absence of restrictions. Besides the sea bathing, facilities are available for softball, fishing, reading, relaxation without interference, ping pong, deck tennis and cards. The ouija board has returned to favor. Recordings are made for those who wish to send ing letters back home and now through the generosity of Mrs. H.

Daingerfield Lewis, who is known in artistic circles as Jessie Voss Lewis, crayon drawings of the sailors and nurses are donated. Portraits Are Popular Mrs. Lewis, who is noted for her pastels, has devoted several days a week since the war started to making sketches of the wounded boys at St. Albans. Early in the conflict she donated a portrait which was auctioned off by Bundles for Britain the proceeds from which went to the purchase of cots for air raid shelters in London.

She also gave a great many water color and pastel flower paintings to the Citizens' Committee in New York, the proceeds of which went toward the purchase of kits for our boys in Iceland. Martin Knell, Seaman a native of Philadelphia, whose portrait Mrs. Lewis completed the day of our visit, is a favorite. He's been a patient at the hospital for seven months and his morale is an inspiration. Naturally he was delighted with the gift which he described as "sharp" and "sharp" indeed is the likeness.

The therapeutic value of the beach is obvious. None of the volunteers is under 18 and all have been instructed not to question the boys. The club has two patios with 59 cabanas, 197 bath houses and a beautiful cafeteria. It is staffed by about 35 voluntary workers every day, and there is a long waiting list. The Beach Club was put in order and is being kept in repair by volunteer workmen under the chairmanship of John Abrams of Inwood.

Transportation Donated Transportation problems have been ironed out in the past two weeks, through the donation of the services of two buses each Saturday and Sunday by Benjamin Titman of Lawrence. In addition, the navy has been able to provide more cars and buses than was at first expected to supplement those furnished seven days a week by the Citizens' Committee. e. Some days there are six bus loads of patients. The largest day saw 456 boys enjoying the club facilities.

Attendance for 25 days in June was 3,977 and it is expected to be greater. Everything is free to the men. Volunteers pay for their own lunch, The actual cost of one man's food, eating all he wants, including sodas and the like, is cents a day. The hospital supplies life guards and four masters-at-arms in charge of the First Aid room. Much of the equipment has been donated and the only workers paid by the Citizens' Committee are the two watchmen--a day man and a night man.
