Christmas Circus Brings Joy to Iowa City Hospitalarians

About 200 youngsters in the Iowa City children's hospital enjoyed a pre Christmas show featuring pirates, tap dancers, acrobats and hillbillies staged by university students. Ward Christmas trees and a Santa's toyshop workshop are planned as decorations and gifts pour in from dorms, clubs, and local groups. Nurses assist with decorations and the hospital Santa, Dr. Mark Lawrence Floyd, returns for the season. The piece highlights daily routines, ward life, and the nurses' efforts to keep spirits high amid illness.
