;child Patients To Play By JEAN!'.ETI' RA~ ");lira, Sixto ! Mira, los cabal- litos !'' That was the excited ex- clamation by 5-year-old Ramon Viesca that really dedicated the new pla · therapy area at Chil- dren's Health Center yesterday. Ramon was not scheduled to speak. Nor was he listed on the dedication agenda. Listed were men of the cloth who blessed "our precious chil- dren in their search for health." Starred were Col. and Mrs. Irvmg Salomon who under- wrote the cost of constructing and cqu1ppi ng the playground. Introduced were Milton Che- verton, president of the board of trustees of the Children's Health Center; Richard John- ston, center administrative di- 1 rector, and Michael Jackson, But the real dedication came when Ramon tugged at his big brother's hand and said, "Look, Sixto ! Look at the little horses!' and pulled him over to ride on the merry-go-round. It was a bit of a miracle that Ramon wanted to play or could even speak. A few months ago, Ramon was so dreadfully in- jured m an automobile accident that he 11asn't expected to live. Ramon and other little chil- dren who are receiving therapy at the center acted as if they had discovered a magic king- dom when they entered tht! brilliantly colored and equipped play yard. Before the Salomons had even cut aper link chains to open the p area, little Sheril:,:nn, 5, had el her at- \ hospital administrator. SMALL '. fiRACLE'

And by the time Mary Ka- war, director of occupational therapv at the center, was ex- plaining the therapeutic use of the equipment, 11-year-old Ale- jandro was demonst:ating it br, pumping an "lnsh mail wheeled toy with his steel- braced legs. The new play area is located in an inner courtyard at the hospital, a sheltered patio ri_m- med with trees and flowering shrubs. Bricked-in areas for wheel toy-riding and little red wagon- pulling alternate with sand areas on which are located a teeter-totter, a double swan- seated swing under a large translucent plastic canopy and a sturdy slippery-slide. Other gardened portions of the area hold a swinging bench with barber-pole stanchions, horse-headed bouncers, a full- sized nonsailing sailboat and the merry-go-round. Other.toys are invitations to plan-it-yourself play: giant balls for boy-type tumbling, dolls for girl-type cuddbng, toy tractors and earthmo, ers, a riding-sized plastic turtle, and steps up and steps down.
