AMBULANCE -- AFRICAN STYLE

TANZANIA--A litter strapped to two bicycles served as an ambulance

for this Africa emergency patient being examined by Sister Marian

Jan, a physician at Tanzania's Kowak Hospital, operated by the

Maryknoll nuns. The former Marion Puszcz of Yonkers, N.Y., Sister

Marian Jan has served in Maryknoll's Tanzanian missions since 1957.

Before entering the religious order she specialized in obstetrics and

gynecology at Albany (N.Y.) Hospital. Her busy days at the Kowak

mission include many maternity cases, as well as emergencies.

Scattered in various parts of the world, the Maryknoll Sisters

include, besides doctors and nurses, catechists, teachers, and

domestic, social service and office workers.
