York County Hospital established a record Monday when a Bradford area woman Mrs. Rosella Bell gave birth to her 17th child - a 10lb., one ounce girl. Mrs. Bell has had more children than any other mother at the hospital - and it's her last, she says. Her husband Roy works at Greenacres Home for the Aged. The couple already has 11 girls and five boys ranging in age from three years to 21.
