For all the thoughtful ness and sincere interest which she has had in all our functions, we wish to leave Miss Rathman our deepest apprecia- tion . To Mrs. Hoff, so that she may finally have peace of mind, we leave our experience record books, may they rest in pieces. All our gratitude is left to the clinical instructors for the many pain- ful hours they have spent instilling their knowledge into us — we know it was not in vain. To the dietitians, we leave all the pureed cherry pits. Admiration is left for Miss Zwolinski for her professional attitude. Along with all her unforgettable experiences during her stretch at Millard, Nancy Horton leaves her ability for getting campused to Char- lotte Nichols. Wilma Blake, the calm, cool and collected member of the class, wills her poise to Laura DiSonti. Mary Jo Clair hopes that Pauline Bauer will have as much fun as she did at Gowanda, in fact, as much as she can have anywhere, any- place, anytime. Doreen Eberle although we don ' t know If she can do without it, leaves her inquisitiveness to Maxine Zielinski. Susie Haun has many fine traits to leave but she ' d rather leave her lung to Pathology. Mary Ann Micklas should be happy to know that Debbie McGrath is wil ling to leave her a part of her famous pony tail . We hope that Pat Harner will be able to fulfill all the social ob- ligations Ginny Brown has bestowed upon her. 33 Joan Wakefield disagrees about the saying, You can ' t take it with you She ' s go- ing to I Fran Barton is going to leave her stamina and perseverance to Carol Turner and Jackie Zimmer. Slim Kotmaier leaves quickly, lest the V.N. A. catches up v ith her for embezzled funds. Our Friend Linda Reinholtz leaves her ability to be good natured under any stress or strain.

Barb He ' s a doctorl Heimerle leaves for the Stuyvesant to meet Mary Ann Kania and Pat Reed who refuse to bequeath it to anyone else. Marion Young leaves her dreams of a happy marriage and all her house plans to Bar- bara Berger.

Alice Sanchez hopes that Anne Becker and Janice Preston will all be able to get weekends off at Children ' s too. Anita Beachie Lawrie wills to Ma Lerczak, a bigger and better bar. Jeannie Sakamura leaves her wise decision to transfer to good old MFH to anyone else with the same inspiration. The Senior Class wills to Marion Have you got anything to eat? Kussum a pair of earphones so that she can watch TV in peace. Ginny Honah Maxson leaves her summer flings in search of a full time romance. Claudia Kipp wills her little room downstairs at Perkins to Judy Swanson saying Give me Five Minutes More. Jacque Renner leaves with her harness for a better repair shop. Pam Partiss leaves us all wondering about her lost weekends. She claims she was just learning how to cook spaghetti. Nancy Graham, along with her guppies, leaves her apparatus for making life easier to 636. Carol Gerstenberg leaves her Florida tan to Frannie Malone. 34 Norma Carlson leaves her ability to stuff ballot boxes to anyone else who wonts to be irresistible .

Joan The Stripper Pongburn, veins, that is, leaves her ability for traveling around incognito. Serenity Nobilio leaves a roll of tape to Mr. Grimm to replace the one used to put up posters. Margie Richter just leaves with Jim, shouting Rootie-Ka- Zootie . Nancy Hill just hated to do it but she ' s staying, shackled to the sunporch, for another bronzing . Alice D and C Schneider leaves her endometrial hyperplasia to the Gyn service. Sue Klein, leaves her big-heortedness to Barbara Carlson. Dona party party Medinger leaves her banquets and bolls to Meyers Tavern. Joan Down the Drain Maier leaves with a pipe fitters degree which she will keep in cose she ever needs it. Joan Lesh Model leaves her gift of gob and leaves with a new name. Anne Anderson leaves to any deserving junior her sterling qualities, may they remain always untarnished. Alice Alfono just leaves with a sigh of relief. In conclusion, we bequeath to oil future classes, all the happy times, the joys, the pride in each new achievement, and the thrill of accomplishment, which we have encountered dur- ing our three years at Millard Fillmore. We, hereby appoint Mrs. Woldowski chief executor of this, our last will and testament and here we set our seal in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and fifty four. 35 f RCundfhe Town The TKeaTre A FTER the show last night, The Comedy in Music , by I. M. Singing and R. U. Listening, we stopped in at Meyer ' s Diamond Horseshoe, where we had a party honoring the superb cost of the star-studded comedy. Many things have happened to us since that September night when we wall ed down the steps wearing our newly acquired pins and clutching our diplomas. Some have won fame and honor, some have traveled far and wide, while the rest have worked day by day to help better mankind. Our hostess. Miss B. Heimerle, in her Schiaparelli gown, is talking to F. Barton, who has just been appointed Dr. Mudge ' s chief assistant. Serving punch is L. Rienholtz, head nurse on one main and J. Renner, who is now working in cysto. Everyone stood at attention as Major Joan Didion of the U. S. Army enters the room to make inspection. Everyone, except Nancy Hill and J. Maier, who are too engrossed with their new dance steps which they are practicing in the far corner. We were all delighted to see that Mrs. J. Pangburn Crowley could attend, finally having found a baby sitter for her baseball team. Standing near her is N. Carlson, president of the lady ' s wig company, having had an unfortunate accident five years ago. Rushing in the front door is C. Kotmaier, who works port time for the U. S. Mint; she understood everything was on the house. Along with her came the famed Mary Ann Kania, who is the first woman president of the U. S. Rotund Eberle has just returned from her European tour, where, among other things, she swam the English Channel in record time. Mrs. J. Lesh Model, who now owns a chain of motels all over the country, has justwalkedin with her husband, George. Anne Anderson, the heroic nurse from Indo-Chino, has just arrived, bringing with her many tales concerning 5,000 men and one nurse. Pam Partiss has just come in carrying her water bucket. She is a water girl for her husband Joe ' s football team. The clock on the wall has just sprung all its springs; M. Vossler must have laughed again. She is head nurse for O. B. at the Veterans ' Hospital. Nancy Horton is the only Grad working nights at the Diet Kitchen. She spends her days learning how to polka at Konia ' s Dom Polski. 36 Seated at the table is M. J. Clair, the celebrated author, who is trying to get her joke book past the censors. D. McGrath is modeling for Alexander ' s; she walked in wearing a white strap- less, backless, beltless uniform, with a red picture hat. Glancing across the room we see Pat Reed, the famed lady wrestler, who is practicing a head lock on her husband. Standing near the food, we see M. Kussem, clinical instructor on one main. Wilma Blake and her husband just whizzed by on their new jet propelled motorcycle; hope they will be able to stop. Claudia Kipp and Joan Wakefield have brought their sons tonight. They are going to honor us with a singing rendition of the old M.F.H. Alma Mater. In walked Ellie Nobilio, the new hostess at the Ni- agara Falls U.S.O. We were all glad that Alice Alfano could make our party tonight. She just finished making up time. Just arriving from a three month vacation in Florida are Honah Maxson and Sue Klein, radiating the sun ' s rays upon us. Jean Kane just called, saying she would be a little late, it seems a patient from Gowanda eloped with her keys. Mrs. A. Sanchez is teaching Spanish now. She had to obtain a baby sitter to attend our gala affair. We were sorry to hear that Alice Schneider could not make it tonight; she is busy seeing the world as an airline hostess with the Trans-Continental Airlines. In fact, Sakamura flew in with her last week from behind the Iron Curtain, where she has been spreading the Gospel as a missionary. Sitting in the easy chair is S. Nagell, still wearing a shoulder brace to correct the lordosis suf- fered from bending over on V.N. A. She is carrying on a conversation with Shirley Hess, handy man for Mr. Grimm. C. Gerstenberg just walked by the group, demonstrating how she poses for Pepsodent Toothpaste ads. L. Stein has given up Steins beer to pose for the new Genny. M. Young finally has obtained her driver ' s license. She has been driving illegally for five years. James just grabbed Marge Richter; she was trying to steal the punch bowl. They now own a store for second- hand glasses. Seated on the couch is A. Lawrie who is a glass blower for Dr. Hague. In walked G. Brown with her green hair. She is now modeling for Green and Bright , a new hair dye. Scoop it up , is shouted across the room. It must be S. Haun and D. Medinger, reminiscing about nights on one old. The hour of departure has now arrived and our party is drawing to a close. Everyone has en- joyed seeing the old gang. . . .Oops! Here comes Nancy Graham only two hours late — But I didn ' t hear the fire bell I she exclaimed. Oh well, better late than never. 37 AV VA ' o ' d c ' ' = ' ' « o ' ,09 Vie V o ' lO S ' V e v O Ve i£ :!:SJ ° ' , o V.VnXO -.-! r? ° e ° ' C ibo e .!t ' eoA- ,N e ' A ° oo ' .oOq ' V- - ' ■■- ' ' co9 ' A CO ' ' ' e ' y oo ' ;; .Vv ' ' .?„sV, ,V e-° ,ot o s o o ' Ao ' oo ' ,( e- ,XoN « ' sfjO A e v .Ia, ' V N v tv V.i9-. 0 ° 09-- ' ,oO ' o9 bof A e o A V ® ixev bO o« V eV ' ,e« e o VxoQ A ' o be ' o . bO - r ' e ° ' y - ' o t ' ' Ae sr° ' ,oO ' ,AV oO- oAe_ oo;-r e Vr o ' V.„A « ° ,te- 9.ee ' a ' o ' Or vMX HVxS VvO ' 0 I voc° y o ' ,0 JO ' As, .W . .vote ' r rO . ,- ° oo , - o fv.oo ' •,v(e ' 38 i ' l .1; f ' mm . « an jou J magmc CAN YOU IMAGINE A senior class without a Mrs. Going through training with only one pair of scissors.

You first came in training and you were embarrassed to tears at the first physical . We started training with 86 students. We were almost campused because someone needed mouth- wash. You went to U.B., had some wonderful times, became an expert at slipping out of classes and had such insight as to know exactly whose classes you could skip. Someone found a dead fish in their pillow. Tulips and Heather on the NFT. You had anatomy lab with Miss Popa. Norton and the pinochle games. We went swimming April twenty-first before our Micro class. Nursing Arts lab on Sat. morning and we gave each other bed baths - remember why Hess had to empty and sterilize the bed pan. The water fights on the second floor. When Medinger was afraid of the bogey man. The Capping Prom at the Hotel Statler. The first day we worked with our newly acquired caps. Our picnic at Pillar ' s, remember Miss Peck and Miss Galantowicz playing baseball. We first started working full time - and thought it was fun - and just couldn ' t wait for relief. Our practical exam, Haun had to do Post Mortem Care. Our first hypos, it hurt us more than it did the patient. Someone put the catheter in the wrong place in Mrs. B. and she had uterine tidal drainage. We knocked over the whole table of solutions for cleaning surgery in Dr. Kenwell ' s surgery. Someone tried to fit two D.K. trucks in the old elevator and spent one half hour trying to get out. We pureed the cherry pits. Horton was handed an amputated leg and she took it up to Pathology on the elevator. We roller skated down ttie hall at 636. The three CVA ' s in 136. Working nights on I Old.

We ' v e sweated in the diet kitchen, and relaxed on three main nights. Relief become a password, days off without classes a blessing from heaven. And what is a weekend anyway? During this second year, we lost a few of our crew. Kathleen R. Brown went to sunny Florida, and Betty Hoff to Hawaii to become Mrs. Gail Young. Dorm life livened up a bit what with the theft at 1297 and the fire across the way. 1305 had a bout with the steam pipes. Oh, what noise and smell filled that nightl Of course, we recall that morning Barb Stetler and Carol Heiser walked around Gates Circle at 6 am, and what of those Two Purple Shadows in the Snow outside Joannie Meyer ' s window. Laura DeSanti came to the rescue of three boys from Hornell. With the help of Wilma Blake, they obtained their pledging quest — a bra with seven student nurses ' names on it. I don ' t think we ' ll ever forget Earleen Worden when she had to port with part of her a- natomy. Did you ever find Thursday, Earleen? The half-way party Man, that is a memory I I remember dancing, beer bottles, eating celery, beer bottles, doing the bunny hop and beer bottles. With much singing, foolishness, and gaiety, a good time was hod by all. Let ' s do it more often. Our dance. May 28, at the Forty and Eight Club was a gala affair. Colorful spring dresses and handsome escorts, before and otter parties turned it into quite an evening-and morning. Seems that this year, we all turned out as salesmen, of a sort, selling name tapes, stuffed animals, pennants, and photo albums. With the excellent leadership of Shirley Dahmer and her staff: Janet Slaugenheupt, Donna Birmingham, and Joan Long, we have emerged unscathed and triumphant. We, Juniors, are welcoming our Senior term and black bands, and we extend our hand to Earlene Voss and Nicky Spork with praise and gratitude. Thanks loads. 47 km.i MiMtki ' ' iak Left to right: Jean Grace, President; Carol Mallon, Treasurer; Linda Nesseltre, Vice-President; Kathleen Schwenkel, Secretary. 50 IT hardly seems possible that there can be more bewildered people on ear ' i than we were when we first came Into training. Our first days were occupied with orientation proceedings at the Univer- sity of Buffalo and here. It is surprising how quickly we learned our way around, and became more acquainted with the hospital and each other. At our first class meeting, we elected temporary class officers who were to serve until January. They included Jean Adrian as president, Veda Neville as vice-president, Kathleen Schwenkel as secretary, and Carol MoUon as treasurer. During the month of October, we were faced with the dreaded prospect of initiation by the Jun- iors. We were in for a big surprise when that night arrived. We had thought that it would be hor- rible. Visions of short-sheeted beds, topsy-turvy rooms, and gruesome physical torture filled our dreams the previous night. We were really amazed at the humanity of the upper classmen. Everyone had a wonderful time, and it proved to be one of the highlights of our training. It soon became evident that the freshmen would need finances for the future. Up to date we have sold Christmas corsages, Millard Fillmore bracelets, and are now working on future projects. The highlight of our preclinical period was our Christmas party which proved to be a huge success. Careful planning on the part of Jeannie No wok, and co-operation of all the members of the cast and assistants, brought about the success of a variety show and a short ploy titled The Littlest Angel . In February we elected new class officers; they included Joan Grace as president, Linda Neasel- tre as vice-president, Carol Mallon as treasurer, and Kathleen Schwenkel as secretary. The class is looking forv ard to other projects with the hope of success. 51 J J It Happened, ll s Over, Let s Forget It r  i itii 53 p-|7Tmi D v i , tLf l -t -.
