time we lost one who had come to be a vital part of our class in such a short time. M. Bobbitt completed her nurse's training to give T L C to her Melvin. Medical- Surgical Nursing Il kept the Seniors up to all hours of the morning typing qhunt and peck methodj confidently as they corrected each of the umpteen errors on each car- bon copy. I-low about it, W. White? The basic scientific principles instilled into our gray matter was carried over and applied to the dynamic game of Password. With her own rules and the problem solving technique, why is it P. Price could never win? Perhaps it was because A. Garris was her partner and with a clue like Agnes for a password like barn , what can you really expect? Of course every group must have an angel, and ours is tops. L. St. John was always there when anyone needed guid- ance. And then there was one who was always trying to deceive us. Wonder when J. Gatlin will let the roots grow out? Oh, but that would mean she'd have to buy new headgear! fwonder how many pay checks it would take?5 S. Burton was always striv- ing, striving toward the ultimate goal of marriage, regardless of the obstacles. Somehow, she almost landed in service on the buddy plan . Common problems to many were marriage and the draft. With V. Strum's ingenuity, she was always ready with the requirements for requalification before the laws were written. I-low large a family can you make in three months, V. Strum? S. Jackson portrayed the feminine role in the social world of Rex student nurses. And C. Burrage attempted to compete through her yearly almanac of listings for ever-available dates. Upon careful evalua- tion of G. Wade's allergy condition, the Senior class has arisen with the conclusion that she is allergic to all females. But what about the males, G. Wade? S. Foster has maintained the position of an outstanding scholastic student and wife since our Freshman year. Often we wondered why she hurried home in the evening--to study, or to her husband. I. Talton has had a trying three years. Her determination to achieve the highest scholastic average was shown by her long hours in the library at the Hill and also her refusal to participate in any of the trivial games such as cards. One special thrill of our Senior year was fitting for graduate uniforms. Why was it that no one could fill the one B. Bevacqua tried on? White for a brief while gave us a dream to carry us over till Graduation. The Graduation music has started. We have come through these past three years with the help of many people. We are now marching in our whites to Pomp and Cir- cumstance. Mom and Dad are standing by with tears in their eyes and pride in their hearts. Many past memories are rushing through our minds. These memories will always be dear to the hearts of each of our classmates. Dorinda Jean Gatlin , 61 ' 'J i r qi, an - -+V- ta. X J I T Q' , X 1' 1 ,ax

Sklar jflsfor Here it is, August 19, 1966. This is the day we, the class of 1966, graduate. We will walk down the long halls and steps of the dorm we have come to know so well--on, as Rex graduates. We will receive our pins and diplomas for which we have waited so long. It has been three years since we first entered the sometimes discouraging and yet rewarding life of a student nurse. Yes, it was September 10, 1963 when 37 bright-eyed girls hesitantly said good- by to family and friends and opened the door to an entirely new life, a life of hard study, clinical laboratory experiences, and fun as only a dormitory filled with student nurses can have. Our freshman year proved to be an exciting and unbelievable one at N.C. State University. Remember the odds of ten boys to every girl and the anat- omy labs with dear old kitty Samantha and her innards? Our knowledge of the hos- pital at this point included bedbaths and backcare carried out on Mrs. Chase in the Fundamental Lab. Finally we had arrived, our first day in the hospital. Decked in lab jackets and led by our capable and supporting instructors, we numbly walked to the clinical laboratory to serve mankind. Dorm life included water fights, iced tub baths in blue ink on birthdays, imitations by S. Burton, studying to all hours of the night, and talks with Mrs. J. .What would we have done without Mrs. I. 7 With a full year behind us, we proceeded on--on to capping. We will never forget our first feeling upon having our caps placed solemnly upon our heads by the Big Sister who had meant so much. With the advent of becoming Juniors, we began to more readily accept the increasing responsibility which faced us. Our most out- standing scholastic contribution of this year was our unforgettable N L N scores in Microbiology. I-low many times did we take that course, girls? D. Mosley repre- sented our school at the National Convention of the SNANC in California. What could have been more exciting than seeing the Golden Gate Bridge, catching the trolley cars to Fisherman's Wharf and walking down Market Street in San Francisco! We were also honored to have one of our girls, W. White to run as a candidate for state recording secretary of SNANC. So what if the majority used poor judgement in their choice of the wrong candidate! Our unfortunate loss of two students during this year was aided by the addition of three, now indispensable, students. They were beautiful and aged C. Riggs, tiny V. Isler, and talkative H. Kirby. Two members of our class, Betty Grady and Becky Grady, were overcome by the infectious love or- ganism. They now carry the full load of a student nurse, a wife, a cook thot meals?j and a housekeeper qclean bathrooms?J. Due to our industriousness and dedication, part of our class spent their vacation time in the honorable pursuit of educating cer- tain males to the life habits of student nurses on the sunny shores of O.D. Each day P. Mitchell led the beachcombers in a moment of absolute devotion to the memories of Morehead. Our Senior year began with our Banding Ceremony. Somehow, we were the dig- nified Seniors. Five of our girls were honored by being tapped into Santa Filomena. They were S. Foster, P. Mitchell, B. Grady, D. Mosley, and W. White. In Septem- ber, eight of our girls packed up for the Hill. In their leisure time, they returned to analyze the remaining class members as to their mental diagnoses. About this .-1. U-, ...il ,imma
