NEW YORK: Mary Ann Lee Sin-Ja, 3 year old Korean
orphan, gets spruced up by her foster brother, Richard C. Lignore,
of New York's Idlewild Airport from Korea. Lignore, who was attracted
to the pretty little orphan while he was a GI in Korea, persuaded
his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Lignore of Philadelphia, to adopt
her. In four months the Lignore family was able to clear up the
official red tape to legally adopt the child.
