Lana Boyles Wingate CLASS HISTORY Every little girl has at some time dreamed of becoming a nurse. In the mind of a child, a nurse appears glamorous, self-sufficient, help- ful, and spotless in appearance. Yes, all little girls dream of becoming nurses, but only a few choose to pursue this profession, and even a smaller number see their choice become a reality. We are a few of those who did choose this great and growing profession. Thirty-two hopeful candidates entered Cabarrus Memorial Hospital School of Nursing on September 1, 1958. We were greeted with a warm hello from the house mothers. No, we did not make the headlines, but our dreams had been set in motion and at last was on its way to reality. This was the beginning of our long training period and also the start of a new social life for us. We spent the first several weeks trying to familiarize ourselves with our new environment and our new friends. To help us to become ac- quainted, several parties were given in our honor. Two of these were the annual watermelon feast given by the Concord Business and Professional Women’s Club and the hamburger party at Cook's Buffalo Ranch, sponsored by the Christian Student Union. After a few weeks, these class officers were elected: President, Daisy Mae Pyrtle; Vice- president, Linda Miller; Secretary, Ann ett e Hartgrove; Treasurer, Hilda Whitley; Chaplain, Jean Correll; Advisor, Mrs. Jean McKay. During the month of October we selected two of our classmates, Amy Jo Kiger and Sue Story, to attend the State Student Nurses Association Convention. November went by unnoticed, and we soon found ourselves in the midst of the Christmas season. As a glee club, we participated in many parties and programs, but our Christmas Carol program for the patients was the most heartwarming of these festivities. Rounding out the Christmas season was our first Christmas dance and ban- quet. The one and only Dr. Maulden put down his stethoscope and donned a Santa Claus costume, to help make our dance a success. MAuld Lang Syne” was soon sung and forgotten and we presently found ourselves making hearts and flowers for our Valentine Dance. A short while after the dance, a tea was given in honor of our parents. The following months went unrecorded until, with the coming of hot weather, we packed our suit- cases and departed for a well-deserved vacation. Upon return, we received our blue bands signifying that we were full-fledged Juniors. New class officers were elected: President, Mary Jo Stuttz; Vice-president, Frances Coggins; Secretary, Linda Cook; Treasurer, Joan Powell; Chaplain, Sue Herrin. As Juniors, we took part in many activities, such as basketball, trips to the Y.M.C.A., C.S.U. retreats, dances, banquets, and Religious Em- phasis Week. A new slate of officers was elected: President, Sue Herrin; Vice-president, Lana Wingate; Secretary, Frances Coggins; Treasurer, Betty Sikes; Chaplain, Barbara Grayson. One of the highlights of our Junior year came when we played hostess to the Seniors at the traditional Junior-Senior Banquet. We then took a two-week's vacation. After these pleasant days, one-half of our class went to Dorothea Dix Hospital for psychiatric nursing and one-half of our class returned to the school. Again our return home proved to be quite rewarding as we traded our blue bands for our beautiful black ones and we found ourselves to be dignified Seniors. At last we felt that we had reached the point of no return.” Yes! We were Seniors. At Christmas time, Sylvia Fowler was chosen as Christmas Queen and had the honor of riding in the Concord Christmas Parade. The Junior-Senior Banquet was held again, but this time, we were the guests. Very soon follow- ing this occasion, on June the Twelfth, we traded the name of student nurse to graduate nurse . . . although we still had a period of education to com- plete. This seems only a simple matter, but to us it meant much more . . . hours of study, writing case histories, obeying curfew, experi- encing periods of frustration, working on term papers, preparing for final exams . . . the list could go on and on. But there is no use to look at the past, for we have a bright future ahead. We realize that, as our motto says, for us it is, Ending dreams, be- ginning reality.” Weknowour profession is quite demanding, but we have been well prepared by our faculty, guided by our Director, Mrs. Pauline Ashley and our Acting Director, Mrs. Jessie Kiser. And we have always felt the gentle guiding hand of Miss Louise Harkey, willing to help us whenever we needed her. Our desire to perform at our best is our thanks to them.
