THE JUNIORS With spring and the end of classes the junior class began to come out of hibernation. Activities for the class as a whole were fairly limited to money-raising projects for the big social event of the year the junior- senior banquet. Most of the juniors have found themseives in that hopeless pit of despair known by all past and present students as the ''junior slump. Some of the more ambitious members of the class have used their time constructively by such pastimes as embroidering, knitting, sewing, and other fine domestic arts. The glamorous night life of a junior includes shampoos, manicures, popping corn, playing cards, having gab sessions, and watching Perry Como on TV every Monday, Wednesday and Friday evening. Some of the more fortunate members of the class who are sport- ing diamonds or pins spend their evenings ---otherwise. The class was separated for the first time when the first group of girls left our happy family for their psychiatric affiliation at Knoxville. The long span of time during which there are no classes came as a wel- come change after a year filled with busy hours of classes, duty, and fun.

Little did we realize how much we had to learn in so few months. In our innocence we had no knowledge of the cats we had to disect, the early, ''early morning classes, the study (?) hours or those horrifying first hours of actual floor duty. It was a.long, hard grind, with many a tear shed in the depths of discouragement yet the time has finally come when we can call ourselves Freshmen instead of Pre-clinicals. On April 17, 1955, we donned stiffly starched bibs over our ''Probie blues and received our long awaited caps in an impressive ceremony at First Lutheran Church, Along with our hard work this year we have had a lot of fun. About the first opportunity we had to work together was the plan- ning for our Valentine party which proved to be a big success. We know we have much to learn and many good times ahead of us. During our next two years of training our class will strive to live up to the standards set by previous classes of Iowa Lutheran Hospital.
