MARIAN HAUCK HaUCk5ef1 Ephrata R. D. 2, Pa. Stranger in Pa radise Petite and neat, with a generous portion of Dutch in her speech, describe Hauckie our little E.D. hater.

Quite active in sports especially swimming and skating, Hauckie also finds time for an occasional care study - but only because she doesn't want to lose an overnight.

With a song in my heart Groffie is one vvho can go about her work in a quiet, unobtrusive manner and accomplish much. She can be depended upon to help in any of our class activities besides being a loyal sup- porter of the Christian Nurses' Fellowship. Mary Ellen's mellovv alto voice is a boon to many a duet or quartette to say nothing of Mon- day night chorus. She claims that an alarm clock ringing at 6 A.M. is her pet gripe and her room- mates vvill declare that she never shuts off her alarm until it has rung fifteen minutes. Even though Mary Ellen was usually in on all the rip-roarin' times in the nurses' home, she sees the serious side of life and is a very conscientious, dependable nurse. l l twenty-three

eu Iflibn of wt little . ll isn't GY night ting and :casional rt't want ite often I or with ical floor teir own Ilingness have a ELIZABETH A. KEENEN Liz 612 N. Cherry St., Lancaster, Pa. Show me the way to go home All aboard - here comes Liz and the Green Hornet collecting a gang for the diner. For some reason Liz is very sensitive to horns blow- ing, especially during the night - What shall I do, it's my Chevy! And then there were some unusual experiences going back and forth from Byberry. Early to bed is Liz's motto, I have to have my sleep, but when night duty comes, she wonders what sleep is. Liz is tall and attractive and we all envy her for her soft, wavy hair. She is always ready for a good joke or to play a trick on someone - just recall the Fraim House days! Her concern for her patients bring out Liz's serious side, and our class just wouldn't have been complete without Liz and her Chevy. PATSY LEE JOHNSON Pug I398 W. King St., York, Pa. Madame Butterfly If you hear someone give out with a great sneeze you can be sure Pug is around with one of her many allergies. A social butterfly, Pug flits around from parties to dances and even adds spirit to a gathering of gripers in the nurses' home. Pug can often be seen gadding about town, hunting for bargains for her wardrobe and her interests range anywhere from paiama parties to sewing and knitting. She is the beautician of Brinton House and is the official hair chopper and stylist of the class of '54. Feeding formula to the frail family of premies was fun for Pug and she tells us she hopes her future includes lots of travel and work in a doctor's office. twenty-five
