During the course they The C.Y.O. is an organization com- posed of all the Catholic girls in the school. It is under the supervision of Miss Ruth Mary Green. The main purpose of the C.Y.O. is to give the girls an opportunity to meet for sports and other social activities. f C. Y- O. have been studying the theory of flight and its practical applications. That sev- eral of the members intend to take the C. A. A. test for Aeronautical Know- ledge Certificates shows the importance of this Wartime course. The group hopes to establish a tradi- tional tea honoring newcomers to the organization. The organization also stands ready to serve the school whenever it is called upon to do so. l -27- I' I

l HOME NURSING COURSE Ooh, that tickles! My gosh, guy, youlve got a rapid pulse. VVho is he? Those corners aren!t really square! Be carefulg don't let her drop! You just contaminated yourselfli' Such exclamations could be heard coming from Room 33 for the first twelve weeks of 1943 as two groups of junior and senior high school girls took the Red Cross Home Nursing Course. As any member of a Home Nursing class knows, the remarks were the re- sult of : bathing a bedridden patient, counting a pulse, making a bed, making an occupied bed, nursing a patient with a contagious disease. The course itself was a very interest- ing and enlightening one, since few of the girls had had actual experience with correct sickroom procedure. Under the capable direction of Miss Mary Gray, the American Red Cross instructor, the girls were inspired to prepare them- selves for service in time of illness or emergency, either in their own homes or in the community. Of the ninety or more girls taking the course, approximately sixty-five com- pleted it. Many of the girls earned the Standard Home Nursing Certificate, and the younger, or the less ambitious, worked for the junior Certificates. Plans have been made to organize the girls into a more or less permanent group which will meet at regular inter- vals for reviews and reports of actual home nursing experiences.
