IN @ RIG AS 5.@ galGHhsS Left to right! BETTY GOODMAN, BETTY SELLERS, COLLEEN SMITH Yes, being a Junior was the one desire that we had looked forward to since we entered training. That was the time we were relieved of our quiet studies, and most of all we were that much nearer to that white uniform and black band. We had taken one step more toward that glorious horizon and that sunset of tomorrow. “Now as we look forward to that coming day We find that tomorrow is now on its way, So being a Junior is only a step, To dreams of the future, and memories we've kept.”
