4. Our love for Doctors Wright and Erb, but don’t get sick just to see them. Our love for Doctor Long’s jokes and our so cherished love for all the staff members. Treat them right, girls. 5. Also, we leave each of you a pair of so-called “Knickers.” Wash them regularly, girls, and don’t wear them in the hall. SHOCKING! AREIGL ERIN Personally we do bequeath: 1. Pearl Anders leaves her ability to sleep walk to anyone capable of keeping the house in an uproar in the middle of the night. 2. Betty Harwood leaves her ability to get dates and have a good time (and we do mean a good time) to Margaret Spivey. 3. Anna Jean Poole leaves one of the most mixed up love affairs in the history of our nurses home to Robbie Thompson, hoping she can manage it and survive. Good luck, Gal! 4, Ruth Rinehardt leaves her ability to “hang on to him”, her height, weight and shoes (414) to Margaret Daniels, hoping they will be useful. Also her love for potato salad and dill pickles—Lucky girl! 5. Annie Lee McSwain, so-called “Flea’’, leaves all her old infatua- tions to Ruth Cope so she won’t ever be dateless. She refuses to leave her love for “Bea’’, but to Ruth Robbins and Evaline King she leaves the memory of her hourly fights with that “beloved roommate” Bea. 6. Elaine Overman leaves her philosophy of life to Ruby Poteat, hoping she will be able to understand and discuss it as Elaine did. Plus this, you are given the privilege of having a date every night from seven to eight if you can find a man who will help keep the furniture warm for an hour.
