Scope and content
St. Joseph Hospital held a Multiple sclerosis clinic in November, 1951, perhaps sponsored by the Catholic Northwest Progress newspaper. The man in the pinstriped suit with clipboard is believed to be Dr. Hinton Jonez, prominent Tacoma physician, who was speaking to a large group of men and women, some of whom are in wheelchairs. Dr. Jonez would be the medical director of the new Multiple sclerosis clinic at St. Joseph Hospital in 1952.
