Description

Exterior photograph of an estimated 135 people, two are men and the rest are women, standing in a group in front of the Manzanar hospital building. All our wearing winter coats, and the Sierra are in the background. Affixed to the bottom edge of the photo is a label and a clipping from a newspaper. The yellow post-it label says: "Katherine Yamaguchi R. N. Instruct." The newspaper clipping mentions the Red Cross and gives several names: Manzanar Red Cross, headed by Mrs. Asa Ikeda, has performed many services such as making curtains and staging benefit drives. Seated around the table are Mesdames Tatsu Kondo, Asa Ikeda, and Chiye Yato. [The following sentence is crossed out: Displayed are some of the articles made by the volunteer workers for the drive.]
