Carole Harris — Grosse Isle, Manitoba. “Memory is the diary that we all carry about with us.” Wilde This pert, little, blue-eyed gal has been toting a diamond for a year now, and hopes to add the matching one shortly after training. Good marks are her specialty although we don’t know how she does it—she’s never in. Usually heard saying, “Evenings’ —oh no, not again!” Future plans—a home in the country and P.H. Valerie Hooper -— Vernon, B.C. “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.” F. D. Roosevelt. She will never know why she came this far from home. Valerie can be found watching T.V., reading, sleeping, or finding out the hows and whys of people. Valerie can find a theory behind everything —just ask her. Future plans—undecided. Kathleen Horn — Somerset, Manitoba. “Where the willingness is great the difficulties cannot be great.” Nicolo Machiavelli. Kathy is everybody’s friend. She can be found at Somerset, Aunt Mildred’s, or just “out”. Instigator of many a prank at Selkirk. She blossomed forth with a beautiful solitaire at New Year’s. Future plans—general duty in the country. Pamela Keenan — St. James, Manitoba. “I’ve taken my fun where I’ve found it.” Rudyard Kipling Often found busy solving her friend’s problems. We welcomed the car out at Selkirk and also her home for many class parties. Usually heard saying, “I’m going on a diet tomorrow!” Future plans— combining marriage and nursing. 28

Arlene Graham — St. James, Manitoba. “Everyone excels in something in which another fails. Cira One of the lucky students chosen for the colour guard at the Medical Convention. She loves travel¬ ling T.C.A. and spends most of her holidays “in the air.” A friend to all, she can be found where there’s fun, laughter, and food (preferably from home). Future plans—city hospital life. Lucille Hanke — Plumas, Manitoba. “I make the most of all that comes, and the least of all that goes.” Teasdale We all love Lucy! She never seems to run out of energy. Favourite saying—“Just have to get home to see what’s going on.” The life of our parties and always ready for fun. Future plans-—A possible post-grad in psychiatry. All the best, Lu. Anne Hanlin — Hamiota, Manitoba. “Women are wiser than men because they know less and understand more.” James Stevens This young lady is full of energy twenty-four hours a day. We wonder if she took up the wrong profession with her hairdressing abilities? Her spare time is spent knitting or designing a new hat. Future plans—Kenora. Verna Hambley —• Swan Lake, Manitoba. “I have often regretted my speech, never my silence.” Maxim This bashful “blonde” joined our ranks in October ’59. Verna’s quietness appears to be her outstanding quality, but this is a false impression—believe us! One gal who has a very active, social life. Future plans tremble on the brink of the unknown but this unpredictable gal is sure to succeed in whatever field she enters. 27

Shirley Moffaii — Gregg, Manitoba. “The days that make us happy, make us wise.” John Masefield Received a diamond to help her through her affiliation at Selkirk. One of our quieter girls with a timid giggle. Spent most of her training on third centre. Occupies a chair in the lounge on second watching T.V. and doing fancywork. Future plans—• Ritchie, nursing, Ritchie! Olive Oakes —Gladstone, Manitoba. “If you stop to be kind, you must swerve often from your path.” Mary Webb She was a Saskatchewanite, and still is, at heart. Where there’s fun and food, there’s Olive. A willing participant in Glee Club and Young People’s, she also enjoys dancing and all sports. Future plans—A country hospital, then Europe. Adina Penner — Steinbach, Manitoba. “Knowledge comes but wisdom lingers.” Tennyson This efficient, enthusiastic lady is a real worker. She is Secretary-treasurer of the Year Book and active in N.C.F. If you need a friend or advice, see Adina. Future plans—Indefinite—country hospital. Brooke Riddell — Warren, Manitoba. “I have been one acquainted with the night.” Robert Frost Brooke, with her mischievous brown eyes, has warmed many a heart. These hemlines—what a problem! Especially with eight uniforms. One of her mysteries includes just how that poor nose of hers remains so straight. Her interest in Vancouver has now moved to Regina. Future plans—work in a city hospital. 29
