Her breadth of vision and keen foresight to the needs of nursing have been justly recognized when, on June 7, 1948, President Roswell Gray Ham, in behalf of the Trustees of Mount Holyoke College, awarded her the honor- ary degree of Doctor of Science, For broad service to your fellow men and women, for rich teaching and undeviating pursuit of science and learning. It is indeed a real privilege to dedicate the Starch and Stripes of 1950 to Miss Conrad. We hereby pay tribute to her for outstanding achievements and fine leadership and will endeavor to fulfill the ideal that she has set for each of us in our chosen profession. G. HARRIET MMTEL Instructor in Nursing We, the Class of 1950, wish to express our gratitude and sincere appreciation to Miss G. Harriet Mantel, our faculty adviser, for her unceasing efforts in our behalf and her keen interest in our activities. She has our friendship, admiration and deepest respect. FLORENCE M. JOHNSON Miss Florence M. Johnson, retired director of the New York Chapter of the American Red Cross and now a special representative of the American Nurses ' Association to extend hospitality to nurses of all nations, has devoted her entire life to others and to her profession. Natural graciousness, enthusiasm, kindness, generosity and a depth of feeling for nurses and nursing describe the best loved nurse in New York . The Class of 1950 is grateful and proud to acknowledge Miss Johnson as our honorary member. We admire the true devotion she has shown to her profession. ST14RT IV. COSGRIFF, M.D. After spending several years with the United States Army, Dr. Cosgriff resumed his association with Presbyterian Hospital and is now an Attending Physician on the staff. As student nurses, we have always been impressed by his sense of humor, his thoughtfulness, and his interest in us. In appreciation of his devoted service to our School of Nursing and to the medical profession, the Class of 1950 is proud and happy to have Dr. Cosgriff as an honorary member. We admir e him as a physician, a family man, and a sincere friend. THE P. H. HYMN Dear Alma Mater from whose heights All healing grace descends, Enduring may thy help abide, Reflect in us thy power to guide Humanity as friends. Across the shifting sands of time The forward pathivay leads, With courage, faith and will our guard As Neighbors serve without regard To color, race or creeds. Oh grant us, Lord, that we may feel Thy strength along the way, The glory of Thy wisdom fill Each loyal heart and mind until Our last Commencement Day. Cecile Covell ' 26 M ■■ ■ I ■Hi , ' .

IT • • • PV-tA wbS SO THREE ' Twas ' 47 in early September A day that we shall long remember The day that we began our nursing career The first step in our goal was here. The spirit of nursing was shown us by all The first day we came to Maxwell Hall. Greetings were given to everyone And the welcoming parties were great fun. The first six months we ' d so much to do That our introduction to nursing just flew Trips, lectures, studies, labs galore Quite suddenly exams came to the fore. That was a period of stress and strain But all was forgotten when we boarded the train Homeward bound for Christmas Eve A wonderful week ' s vacation leave. Enthusiastically we returned To receive the caps we hope we earned The second steps to our goal we achieved When into the school we were received. From the preclinical student gray The blue and white stripe had come to stay The Welcoming Ceremony we shall never forget But more excitement was ahead of us yet. The medicine cabinet was so very new At first we didn ' t know what to do The classes informed us of theory as such But practice improved us — oh, so much! The dressing room was quite a test And we endeavored to do our best With trial and error we found what goes After once scrubbing, then scratching our nose. 30 YEARS We ' ll never forget that Saturday noon We didn ' t think it could happen so soon There in bold letters before our eyes Were Nights and Relief — what a surprise! It was hard at first alone on a floor But each experience taught us more We practiced the skills we had learned And then to the special fields we turned. Obstetrics, Pediatrics, The O. R., and Psych. OPNS, Cooperstown and the like The wealth of knowledge we gained while here Brought us closer to the goal of our student career. As our senior year was nearing a close Comps and orals determined what each of us knows Studies were chosen to introduce Careers in nursing for future use. But all was not work, we had lots of fun Parties and singing and shows we have done With the senior dinner and then the Pierre We closed our calendar ' s last affair. The Red Cross drive went along fine Thirteen-fifty on the line Our bazaar we staged with great finesse The stationwagon, proof of success. Within our memories there will always stay The vivid remembrance of Commencement day. With great pride we received our pin All future hopes secured therein. Our goal will be reached on finishing day As P. H. graduates we want to say How proud we are to have been a part Of the fine institution that gave us our start. ALICE A. HART ' 50 ELAINE L.
