"SISTER KAY"
DUCHESS AS HOSPITAL WORKER
(British Official Wireless.) (Received October 16, 10.30 a.m.)
RUGBY, October 15.
It is now revealed that the Duchess of Kent has been working at the University College Hospital under the name of "Sister Kay" for the last three months, to complete the necessary number of hours' training to qualify her fully as a nursing auxiliary. Only a few of the staff knew her identity, and several patients had commented on the fact that Sister Kay bore a surprising resemblance to the Duchess of Kent.
When the Duke of Kent, as president of the hospital, recently paid a visit the Duchess was presented to him with other nurses and stood in a group at the entrance which cheered her husband as he left the hospital.
