One of the first things they did was to elect class officers. Ann Westmoreland was elected President; Clatie Pickett, Vice-president; Frances Barringer, Secretary and Treasurer with Adelaide Alexander and Lottie Kines as their repre- sentatives in the Student Council. These girls soon learned that theirs was not to be an easy life. They were in class most of the day and then had two hours study period each night. Oh well”, they sighed, then settled down to studying. One of the big events of the year rolled around in December. This was the Christmas Dance. Fun and good times were had by everyone. A few days later Santa made his visit at the Christmas Party. I think he remembered everyone because he even had a bone for me! This seemed to be a season for fun and frolic because only two months later it was time for the Valentine Dance. This was a special occasion to be remembered because the queen was chosen from this class. Margaret Sechler, being the Belle of the Ball, chose for her Prince Charming, Jimmy Widenhouse, and they were crowned Queen and King by Dr. Paul R. Maulden. Little did they think that they would march down the aisle in tune to wedding bells only two years later. On March 5, 1948, the girls were green-horns” no longer. For it was on this day they received that white piece of muslin, the cap, which meant so much to them. Next came September and they, as proud Juniors, had another election. Clatie Pickett was elected President; Rachel Stonestreet, Vice-President; Jeane Holland, Secre- tary; and Rubye Harwood, Treasurer. Joyce Brewer and Earlene Moore were representing the class in Student Council. It was December again and time for parties. The usual Christmas Dance was held and everyone had loads of fun. The night of the Christmas Party, the Glee Club sang carols in the hospital and around the Christmas tree. Then came February and with all the class backing, Margaret reigned once again as Queen of the Valentine Ball. Thoughts were then centered on preparations for the Junior-Senior Prom. Everyone turned out in their best bib and tuck and even I had a bath and a few extra strokes to make my coat bright and smooth as satin. As summer drew near I was almost pushed out of my lot so the girls could take sun baths. Just between me and you, I didn’t mind moving a bit with all the bathing beauties around! All the girls became excited as September rounded the bend. They were now dignified seniors! I hardly recognized them strutting around with black bands on their caps. Another class election was held and Frances Barringer was elected President; Joyce Brewer, Vice-president; Earlene Moore, Secretary; and Doris Black, Treasurer, Bernell Jolley and Margaret Sechler were chosen as Council Representatives. This was the year of separation for the girls. They were off to State Hospital in Raleigh for their affiliation in Psychiatry. The ones remaining here haunted” the mail box for news of their beloved classmates. The usual events at Christmas and Valentine were carried on by the girls remaining at home. New don’t think for a minute that the girls affiliating at State College (Sorry, I meant State Hospital) missed out on any of the fun. From my quarters below, I heard them discussing the N. C. State Wolf Pack” and those exciting adventures. March 2 5, 1 9 50, was an occasion to be remembered by the entire class. It was on this day that Margaret Sechler became Mrs. James Widenhouse and Lottie Kines became Mrs. Kenneth Beaumont in a double wedding ceremony. Of course, all the girls stood by and shed a few tears of joy, realizing that all were not destined to be old maids”. During all these exciting events since New Years, I could hear the rat-a-tat-tat of the record room type- writers as members of the Senior Class worked hard and long to help me prepare their 1 9 50 year book. The Junior Class went all the way this year in honoring the Seniors at the Cabarrus County Country Club at a ban quet and dance. This, as in years before, was one of the highlights of the season. I hardly realized the girls were Seniors until the 22nd day of May when they slipped out of the blues and into the whites. In their chosen profession they proudly took their places carrying with them their unforgettable motto: ''To strive, to seek, to find; but not to yield”. Lois Petrea Chief's Secretary, AND PROPHESIES As I sit here in my dog house this second day of Sep- tember, I think back over the last three years and my life with these girls of the graduating class of 19 50. Yes, they, like all others, had their trials and tribulations but I have also seen the progress they have made and for one I predict a rosy future. Can’t you just see Margaret Widenhouse after she has given up nursing and is helping her dignified husband, Governor James Widenhouse, with his political career in North Carolina? Mrs. Kenneth Beaumont, our Lottie Kines Beaumont, can be seen with her Marine husband, Ken, in Japan doing 24 quite a bit of HOME nursing with Ken Jr. Who would ever guessed she would eventually become the domestic type? Yes, three years ago in the good old days these girls heard and answered the call to nursing”. Joyce Brewer heard the calling” and left her position with the A P Company but the strain of nursing will eventually be too much for her and I can visualize our darling blue eyes back at the old job of grinding, selling, and drinking —coffee, that is. After finishing her three years of training, Jeane Holland left immediately for New York to accept a position at the U.N.O. Conferences. Just one look at Miss Holland and those weary world representatives are ready for another conference on the H” Bomb. Frances Barringer will be seeing the world from a port hole as I predict a navy career for her. I have no doubt that very soon she will become an Admiral. I know the folks at the country store in Point Peter, Georgia, plus her old friends in Kannapolis will be proud of daughter”. Doris Black will marry Heath Hinson and will be in South America supervising the rearing of Debbie and Heath Jr. while Heath is supervising the building of industrial plants. My! What a big place Albemarle will be when Rubye Harwood and Lois Petrea take over both politically and socially. Rubye, the first woman mayor will be running AND WILIS A We, the Senior Class of Cabarrus County Hospital School of Nursing, being of sound body and fairly sound mind, do hereby deem it necessary to present at this time, our Last Will and Testament. Article I. To our doctors we wish to express our deepest and sincerest appreciation for their patience and under- standing, realizing we have given them many gray hairs. Article II. To the faculty, we just leave, knowing that pleases them most. Article III. To the classes: 1. To the Juniors, we leave our one for all and all for one” policy, ami our happy home-like atmosphere. 2. To the Freshmen, we leave our old examination papers, hoping they will profit by our many mistakes. Article IV. To the various persons we leave the following: 1. We, Papa” Brewer aid Mama” Barringer, in weak mind and tired bodies do hereby will and bequeath our humble abode which always has the appearance of having been lived in” and the handleless coffee pot to whoever enjoys comfort more than beauty. 2. I, Doris Black, do hereby will and bequeath my ability to be true to the man I love to my little sister, Pauline T readway. 3. I, Ruby Harwood, do hereby will and bequeath my laughing eyes to Audrey Richardson to go with her laugh. 4. I, Jeane Holland, do hereby will and bequeath my sweet, gentle disposition and ability to keep out of trouble to Carol Farlow, hoping she will profit by it. 3. I Bernell Jolley, do hereby will and bequeath my height, beauty (?), and love for Luke” to my twin sis, Becky Leatherman, knowing that she is taller, more beau- tiful, and loves Tater.” the city with the health problems foremost in mind with Lois Petrea as her right hand man, or should I say woman? Clatie Pickett will occasionlly visit her friends in North Carolina bearing the title Lady Clatie Buckingham, after her marriage to Lord Buckingham in 19 S 2. Unless my old canine eyes fail me, I can see her stdl as pretty as ever with her gypsy personality and laughing eyes. You will be seeing Ann Westmoreland on her way to stardom as she stars in Harry Van Nut’s Time Will Tell”. At last she will have her heart’s greatest wish fulfilled. Bernell Jolley, very soon Captain Bernell Jolley of the Army Nurse Corps, surprised us all. I predicted a Navy career with Bernell pulling all strings to be near a certain Marine. If you were a little bird and could be between Western Air Lines Inc., Airplane $6 03 and ff: 45 8 when they pass in mid-air over the Mississippi, you could see a handkerchief from each plane fluttering in the breeze. On plane 603 will be Stewardess Rachel Stonestreet and on $H5 8 will be Stewardess Earlene Moore. These two thought they would be together in their profession but their hopes were grounded. The only time they see each other is when their planes pass and at Christmas. There has never been a more loyal, sincere group of students than the class of 19 50, and I sincerely hope my predictions will hold true and fast in the years to follow. Earlene Moore, Chief’s Interpretor BONE OR TWO 6. I, Lottie K. Beaumont, do hereby will and bequeath my ability to be professional to Carolyn Wallace, hoping that she gets by with more than I did. 7. I, Earlene Moore, do hereby will and bequeath my sincere heart, philanderous ways, and deep philosophy of life to Ann Beeker. May she profit where I failed. 8. I, Lois Petrea, do hereby will and bequeath all my good times at State Hospital to my little sisters, Betty McCombs and Ruth Sides, hoping they enjoy their stay as much as I did. 9. I, Clatie Pickett, do hereby will and bequeath any- thing I have to anyone who wants it. 10. I, Rachel Stonestreet, do hereby will and bequeath my ability to get a fraternity pin and then have to return it, to Janie Bryant. More power to you with your diamond, Kid! 11. I, Ann Westmoreland, trying not to strain my two cells, do hereby will and bequeath my timid (?) disposition to Louise Glenn; and to Janet Franklin. I leave my bottle of Calomine lotion in hopes it will cure her itch” as it did wonders for my poison ivy. 12. I, Margaret S. Widenhouse, do hereby will and bequeath my corner room to Betty Jo Smtih so she may wave to her James from both windows in case of a sudden attack of restrictivitis”. We hereby declare this document, made on the fifth day of April, Nineteen Hundred and Fifty, to be legal in every respect.
