We, at Charity, are no exceptions when it comes to placing emphasis upon feet; but like all women we also use our feet for adornment as well as for navigation. In fact so important do we consider our problems of foot wear and care, that the Staff has chosen feet” as the theme of the 1952 CAPS AND CAPES. So come with us as we put our best feet forward and go through the year 1952 at Charity Hospital School of Nursing. To one who for many years was both director and friend of the students of our school, we now express our humble appreciation. There will always remain a spark of gratitude and love for Sister Henrietta in the hearts of all students who attended Charity during the years she served as head of our School. A FOREWORD . . .

The structure known as St. John’s Hospital, is heralded as the original Charity Hospital of New Orleans and is one of the oldest hospitals in the United States. This building was replaced by a second hospital which was devastated by a hurricane in 1779 and rebuilt later by the great philanthropist, Don Almonaster y Roxas, a Spanish nobleman. CHARITY HOSPITAL OF LOUISIANA at New Orleans An act of the legislature of the year 1813 may be considered the incorporation of the Charity Hospital as an institution of the State of Louisiana. During the years that followed New Orleans grew rapidly and it was not long before a larger and better equipped institution was needed. A new hospital re¬ ferred to at the time as a model of hospital archi¬ tecture of the nineteenth century’’ was built during the years 1832-1833. The Sisters of Charity have been caring for the patients of this institution by governmental authorization since 1834. On the site of the century old structure the present Charity Hospital rose and was dedicated in 1939. The institution not only offers medical care to those in need, but stands as a great teaching center and affords great opportunities for medical education. It is a state-owned, non-sectarian, general hospital. The Charity Hospital of Louisiana is fully ac¬ credited by the American College of Surgeons and is approved by the Council on Education of the American Medical Association. Membership is held in the American Hospital Association and Louisiana Hospital Association. s ] a. 111 mi] lij mi ; Mil III nil] III mi N III; Ml! 1JI Hill | If jii nn Hit C ! ?

The School of Nursing offers a three-year basic professional program leading to the diploma in nursing from the Charity Hospital School of Nursing. The present Nurses’ Home has borne the name of Sister Stanislaus Hall since 1950, when it was dedi¬ cated to the memory of Sister Stanislaus, who was an Angel of Mercy’’ at Charity Hospital in the true sense of the title. The building, fourteen stories high, was erected in 1939 and is considered one of the most beautiful in the States. Post-graduate courses in Anesthesia and in the Operating Room Technique and supplementary and affiliating courses make it possible for graduate and student nurses of other schools of nursing to share in the opportunities for instruction at Charity Hos¬ pital. The School is approved by the Louisiana State Board of Nurse Examiners and is temporarily ac¬ credited by the National Nursing Accreditation Service.

' • YAV v ' Why Mr. DeMille? After much deliberation the Staff of the 1952 CAPS AND CAPES decided to ask one of the best judges of female pul¬ chritude to select Charity’s Beauty Court for this year. What better judge of femi¬ nine attributes could be found than Mr. Cecil B. DeMille, one of Hollywood’s most famous directors and producers! Mr. DeMille has often proved his eye for beauty in selecting and starring famous lovelies. In fact so popular and renowned has he become in this line, that he is the most sought after Beauty Contest Judge in the country. He has averaged judging at least one contest a week for the past ten years. His letter accompanying his choice was so flattering to our girls, we could not resist publishing it along with his picture. MR. CECIL B.

This may be a question in the mind of a young wo¬ man who is choosing a vocation. Usu¬ ally s he is satisfied to think of nurs¬ ing in terms of what she has seen or heard but I want to tell you what being a nurse really means and what nursing has to offer. First of all, nursing isn’t a life of self-sacrifice. The life of a nurse is the happiest of any I know. When one enters the profession of nursing, she has the great satisfaction of knowing that her work is not only useful and important, but that it is actually essential to the welfare of the human race, since the welfare of any people is based upon its mental and physical health. The ultimate aim of nursing is to help the patient at¬ tain and maintain health or to se¬ cure freedom from pain and discom¬ fort when a return to health is not possible. A nurse does this in many ways. Nursing is much more than giving a patient a few pills and medi¬ cations through a needle several times a day. During an illness, as a general rule, the nurse is the sick person’s most constant companion; her relationship to the patient is, in a sense, a very intimate one, and in some cases the personality of the nurse, wTat she says, and the hope¬ fulness of her attitude toward the patient’s condition, may have as great an influence upon his re¬ covery as what she actually does for him. The nurse meets the family, talks with them and comforts them, and believe me, there is nothing any harder than telling a family one of its members is dangerously ill or dying. But these are just a few of the many things in nursing that bring one closer to his fellow man and bring to the nurse a clearer un¬ derstanding of people. Nursing is an essential occupation. It has the characteristics of a pro¬ fession; long, difficult training, a task - primarily for the benefits of humanity, and a compensation which is more satisfactory than money. It is often said that among nurses is found the purest unselfishness, the sternest devotion to duty, the most unaffected bravery ever known. Of all the rewards of nursing, none is greater than the thank-you of a patient when he leaves the hospital or the thanks of a family for all you have done—the smile on the faces of your patients when you walk into a ward. There is a wide range of activity in the nursing profession. Besides the actual care of human beings, there are the supervisory, administrative, and teaching positions in all nursing agencies. The nurse may work in homes, hospitals, clinics, schools, in¬ dustrial plants, and even on air¬ planes—as hostesses or flight nurses for the Air Force, on boats and trains. While economic conditions will always affect employment, nurses have the comforting assurance that in good times or bad, their serv¬ ices will be needed in every age and in every country. While in a school of nursing, num¬ erous social activities are available in which the student may participate. Various clubs, school picnics, and dances help the student acquire a well-rounded personality. The basic training a nurse receives prepares her for general nursing in homes or institutions and also it offers to her the advantages of fur¬ ther training in a specialized field, such as teaching in Schools of Nurs¬ ing, in hospitals, and other commun¬ ity agencies, supervising of Nursing Services in the hospital and other fields closely allied to nursing, such as Physiotherapy, Social Service, and Anesthesiology. Whatever field she may choose and wherever she goes, the Nurse is looked up to with admiration and respect. She has not only this, but security and the satisfaction that her work is for humanity and in this she can be happy. 81 Miss Student Nurse of New Orleans Contest Contestants in the Miss Student Nurse of New Orleans” contest included, seated, left to right: Misses Pinky Pettit (Baptist), Mary Ellyn Chadwick (Charity); standing: Anease Bowman (Mercy), Bettysue Rivers (Touro), and Carolyn Marionneaux (Hotel Dieu). MARY ELLYN CHADWICK Miss Student Nurse of New Orleans Mary Ellyn Chadwick came through the victor for Charity in a close city-wide contest held March 19, at Hotel Dieu Auditorium. The contest for title of Miss Stu¬ dent Nurse of New Orleans” was conducted among representatives of the 5 schools of nursing in the city for publicity in connection with Nurse Recruitment Week Activities in New Orleans. The candidates were judged upon an original speech delivered by each on the subject, What Nursing Has to Offer.” The student nurses were first suggested by their faculty and then voted upon by their student body. Contests were then held among the students of each school and the winners were entered in the city contest. Identity of the contestants in the final contest was kept secret, and each girl was presented to the judges by a number only, which she had drawn before the speeches were given. Acting judges were Mr. Dan Mul¬ lins from Tulane Speech Depart¬ ment; Mrs. Violet Poindexter, New Orleans Federation of Business and Professional Women’s Clubs; and Mr. Robert Sweezey, Executive Vice President, WDSU-TV. As prizes for the contest Mary Ellyn received the keys to the city from the Mayor, a complete new outfit f rom Maison Blanche Depart¬ ment Store and a luncheon at La Louisiane. Also she was featured on three television shows, in the news¬ papers and Riders Digest” during Recruitment Week (March 24 to 31). ( 82 83 TRIBUTE MISS CAMILLE BARNES TRIBUTE To Miss Camille Barnes, Social Director and Director of Publications at Charity, goes our heartfelt thanks for her aid in publishing this yearbook. Without her guidance this 1952 CAPS AND CAPES could not have developed into the attractive, well-planned annual which we believe it to be. We feel the entire Student Body will also join us in expressing our thanks for her interest and efficient handling of all our recreational activities and social clubs. She has become part of our life at Charity.” THE STAFF 84 1952 CAPS AND CAPES Claire Preston Assistant Editor Dear Students: This is the age of science, speed and advancement, but there should be time for reminiscence. Through your school annual is afforded the opportunity to recall your memorable experiences during this important period of your learning. Genuine success in life is depend¬ ent upon many things, not the least of which are the enlightenment, inde¬ pendence and service to others af¬ forded by nursing training. So do not stack this book away in some dark corner. Look through it at times to refresh and relive in your memory the great part that life at Char ity has played in your develop¬ ment.

Its fore-runner, The Stetho¬ scope,” was established in 1936 by the graduate nurses. Now is it published each month by a student staff under the direction of Miss Camille Barnes, faculty sponsor. The aim of the staff is to record all school activities, stimulate cultural interests, enlighten the readers on the different hospital departments and advancements and give interested students an opportunity to prove their writing ability. For the first time in many years THE WHITE CAP was rated along with all other college monthlies in the Associated Collegiate Press. The Staff reported the rating was SECOND CLASS, ' ' GOOD.” Considering the long hours of training nurses have and the lack of Journalism or Eng¬ lish courses as well as the small enrollment of the school.

STUDENT COUNCIL Miss Stella O’Connor Sponsor The students of our school have the privilege of student government, known as Student Coun¬ cil, which is composed of duly elected officers and representatives from each class. Student Council is The Voice of the Student Body” and as such acts as a liaison agent be¬ tween the Administration and the student group. Weekly meetings are held for considering in¬ fractions of rules and regulations with which students are charged and for deciding and ad¬ ministering penalties previously determined by the Administration. Official student body meetings are also held, when all students have the privilege of express¬ ing opinions and offering suggestions or recom¬ mendations on matters which affect their hap¬ piness and welfare. These suggestions are then presented to the Administration by Council, where they are duly and justly considered. Officers for the 1951-1952 year were Rita Rozas, President; Marion Black, Vice President; Elizabeth Oliphant, Secretary; and Dorothy Green, Treasurer. Miss Stella O ' Connor, Student Adviser, is sponsor of the group. Class Representatives included: 9-19-49 Class —Mary Jane Rogers, Sue Johnston and Patricia Ann Miller; 9-5-50 Class—Mary Ellyn Chad¬ wick, Mary Jane Burkett, and Martha Phillips; 9-4-51 Class—Johnnie Stotler, Alice Rupp and Claire Preston.

This privilege is afforded only to students in their Junior or Senior years who have successfully maintained outstanding scholastic and clinical averages and who have good moral character. The aim of the Organization is to stimulate the rendition of services in the interests of the School and to honor and reward talent and service unselfishly given. Successful strides have been made during the past year to foster interests in all students for cultural and professional activities. 91 SIGMA ALPHA CHI Camille Patricia Dorothy Lois Rubie Catherine Anderson Anderson Buckley Bush Harri s Heath Laura Anne Geraldine Shelia Dorothy Elizabeth Klindt Lazar Miller Mitchell Newman Oliphant Martha Martha Joycelyn Pang Phillips Rice June Marie Betty Jo Schmalz Turner Wolfe 92 MODERN DANCE This year Charity truly decided to have something new in the line of Clubs when Modern Dance Classes were introduced. Miss Anne Bilas, who has a degree from LSU in Modern Dance, proved an excellent instructor. Twenty students profited from the ex¬ ercise, poise, rhythm and enjoyment pro¬ vided in the six weeks’ course. So popular and beneficial was Modern Dance at Charity, that it is sure to be scheduled as an activity again next year. Those taking the course were Elizabeth Oliphant, Ethel LeFleur, Jane Williamson, Marguerite Lamar, Charlotte Lenaz, Mar¬ tha Boone, Kathryn Ginder, Jean Wood¬ ward, Nettye Cain, Joyce Behrman, June Brennan, Peggy Lonergan, Carolyn Tur¬ ner, Ann Blinn, Barbara Cunningham, Iola Orgeron and Mickey Williams. Feel That Rhythm!”—Miss Anne Bilas beats out time for Marguerite Lamar and Mary Louise French. HOBBY CLUB Many believe that everyone should have a hobby! A number of hobby enthusiasts at Charity decided this year to display their individual talents as well as encour¬ age others to get into the hobby feeling. The result was a Hobby Club under the sponsorship of Miss Stella O’Connor. The highlight of the year was a Hobby Exhibit in the lounge, where all types of finished products were on display. Marion Shipley won first place with her water color sketches. Others who were in the running” included: Mrs. Johnnie Stotler, Julia Bull, Leslie Davies, Freida Bordelon, Mary Correnti and Shirley Williams. Marion Shipley’s water color sketches won her first prize in the Hobby Club Exhibit.” 93 Mr. James Stuart Director GLEE CLUB “Everyone has a little music in his soul,” or so the saying goes. At Charity there are many who have more than a little appreciation and talent in music. Charity’s Glee Club is always one of the most popular organizations at the school. This year saw more enthusiasm and vitality than usual because of the coming of a new young musical director—Mr. James Stuart. Under such capable officers as Joyce Glenn, President; Liz” Oliphant, Vice President; Gerry Miller, Secretary; and Frances Scott, Treasurer; the Glee Club stole first place honors at Charity’s Annual Stunt Nite with a skit and choral number, entitled Medley of the Sunny South.” The Club also entertained the patients with the annual Caroling in the Hospital, as well as providing a beautiful musical background in the Christmas Play, The Message of the Christmas Angels.” Besides entertaining at various other social functions, the Glee Club sang inspiring selections at the Outdoor Capping this year. With Mr. Stuart as director again Charity’s Glee Club should soar to even greater fame next year. Other members during the year included: Marilyn Kemp, Jean Wilkinson, Estelle Kaufman, Ann Scutt, Dorothy Vega, Shirley Willia ms, Jeanne Herburger, Zoa Clow, Mary Louise French, Carolyn Turner, Ola Knight, Ora Mae Williams, Carolyn King, Marionette Walther, June King, Joan Jordan, Agnes Larsen, Marilou Trautman, and Gloria Fairbanks. Joyce Glenn President Glee Club Wins Stunt Nite Prize with ' Medley of the Sunny South’.” 94 - • Patsy Sanchez President THE DRAMATIC CLUB Ever since man first acted out his experience for the benefit of his friends, dramatics became an essential part of his existence. Those at Charity seem to have a great lure for the footlights and grease paint of the theatre. On every possible occasion little sketches and stunts are presented. During the year 1951-1952, Charity’s Dramatic Club entertained at the Big Sister Party with Up from the Doorstep,” a melo¬ drama, and Cindy Ella,” a parody of the fairy tale. The out¬ come was a very lively program. Two factors may have been re¬ sponsible—the inspiring talent of the cast and the swarms of lively mosquitoes which came to the outdoor stage productions on the nurses’ lawn. As is the custom every year, a serious and dramatic Christmas play was presented in the Hospital Auditorium for the Sisters, pa¬ tients and students. This year, The Message of the Christmas Angels” was the pageant chosen. The combined efforts of the Glee Club and Dramatic Club produced a truly inspirational effect. The Club again let down its hair” at the students’ Christmas party, when they gave the comedy, Catching Up with Christmas.” Next on their program of activities was the annual Stunt Nite, sponsored by the Dramatic Club. An original skit, Life in the Lobby,” won second place prize for the Club. This organization is directed by Miss Camille Barnes. Officers for the year included Patsy Sanchez, President; Helen Schexnayder, Vice President; Marion Black, Secretary; and Johnnie Stotler, Treasurer. Other members in the club are Joyce Wagner, Catherine Majure, Vickie Johnson, Liz” Oliphant, Joanne Stanfield, Barbara Cobb, Lillian Averna, Gloria Fairbanks, Shirley Williams, Dot Trahan, Gloria Jolly, Anita Brown, Carolyn Turner, Deloris Crocker, Helen Peters, Ann Lazar, Blanche Young and Connie Hudkins.

Meetings consisting of sermons, discussions, and prayers are held weekly in the Nurses’ Home. Nancy Nadolney Prefect Each year the students also spon¬ sor a Baby Party for Underprivi¬ leged Children. One Spiritual high¬ light is the Annual May Crowning; another is the Annual Retreat. This year the Sodality also gave a social event in the form of a Get- Acquainted” Party and Dance.
