Five year-old Erica Rojas sat on
the bed surrounded by Barbie dolls
and their extensive wardrobe.
Absorbed in her play Erica gave no
indication that she was the topic of
conversation.
“She’s quite shy when she first
meets people,” said Mrs. Robert
(Carol) Eyet of Lower Demunds
Road, Dallas.
“1 talked to her mother by phone
last evening and she assured me
that in a day or so Erica would show
no trace of shyness.”
Dark-haired, dark-eyed Erica is a
Puerto Rican child from the Bronx,
one of the 18 Fresh Air children,
who arrived by bus in the Back
Mountain last Wednesday.
Ranging in age from five to 14
years, the 12 girls and six boys will
be guests of 12 area families until
Aug. 16, when they will return to the
city.
Carol Eyet is Dallas Area
chairman of the Fresh Air Program
sponsored by the Dallas Junior
Woman's Club.
“1 know the Woman's Club has
sponsored the program for a good
many years,” said Carol, “exactly
how many I'm not sure but I took
over the program three years ago
when I was president of the Dallas
Juniors.

“The women who worked with the
program prior to that time had
moved up to the Dallas Senior
Women. Arrangements for the
children used to. be done by
telephone but I found it easier and
more informative to send letters
explaining the project.”
Carol explained that families
hosting children for the first time
were required to fill in an ap-
plication form. For those families
who have hosted children in
previous years, it is much easier.
Many of the families have the same
children back each year.
“One lady has taken the same boy
for the past three years. This year
she and her husband also requested
a four-year-old. They also visit their
children’s family in New, York.
“The first time the children come
to this area, they stay only two
weeks; those returning for the
second or third time often stay four
weeks. This time two of the children
will stay for a month: Some of the
older children come in by bus at
different times. These are not in-
cluded among the 18, who are here
now,” said Carol.
“My family was surprised when I
came home with Erica,” said Carol.
“Because my daughter, Sharon,
and my sons, Lee and Robert, are

teenagers and I work most of the
day, I did not plan to host one of the
children. However, there was some
mix-up with three children
scheduled for one family so rather
than disappoint a five-year-old, I
brought Erica home to stay with us.
“We have a bit of communication
problem since Erica speaks
Spanish when she wants something.
She understands English and so far
we have been able to know what she
is saying through a lot of gestures
and some lucky guesses. None of us
know any Spanish at all. I'm sure
Erica will speak English within a
day or two.
“She likes Sharon and is very
good with Le but she is very quiet.”
Carol said that the club has had
no bad experiences during the years
they have sponsored the program,
nor have there been any accidents.
The Fresh Air Program has been in
existence for more than 100 years.
are well screened. Children with
handicaps or police records are not
accepted in the program.
The club is always looking for
families interested in hosting one or
more of the children. If interested
contact Carol Eyet now for next
year.
