Her nursing career is somewhat of a handicap, however. She keeps wanting to put bedpan units in each home Ann Littlefield iS On the faculty at St. Luke's and guess what-- she was just elected to be yearbook spons r. Marcia Angel is still the perfect picture of health, although she won't admit it, and is now the student health director at her old alma mater. Bonnie Smith is still working hard at the hospitalg seems Jim decided a Master's degree wasnt enough and is busy studying for that Ph. D. Pat Garrett and Judy Hill have set up a first aide station at Victor Inn in the Ozarks. They must have a thriving business too as they have their own thirty-five foot Cris-Craft now. We were unable to find out what Carol Burch was doing. We asked her but she couldn't remember. We find Betty Ann Ragan in Turkey doctoring a stiff neck, which is permanently turned toward the East. Think she needs a psychiatrist? Linda Follet is pretty busy roping cattle on her Colorado ranch. Like Linda always said, lf you want something done, do it yourself. Martha Christison received a gold record for selling over a million copies of her new record, Oh! Johnny, Oh! Every one says she really sings it with emotion. LoueneSmith finally married that neuro-surgeon. She is just now recovering from her last craniotomy. Practice makes perfect, you know. Nancy King is busy looking for a husband who can cook and sew. She's still trying to pass that home economics course she started ten years ago. Nan Cannon has organized her own lending library, people can't find the best sellers though, for all the copies of Modern Bride and Simplicity pattern books. Merla Boo uTFWarking altogether. This way she doesn't have to call in sick all the time. Marcia Clock is now orthopedic supervisor. She can be seen following Dr. Adlhock down the hall most any time of day. Naomi Collins is a medical missionary in darkest Africa. We hear she's really an expert on tribal rain dancing. Uncle Alvin has finally willed his store in Garden City to Mona Gatz. It's about time, she brought most of it back to the dorm with her when she was in training, anyway. Margaret Schmidt is a flight nurse in the Air Force now. Her uniform doesnt fit as well as it should though. She refuses to take off that parachute. What's wrong Marg- no confidence? Linda Darnold has given up nursing for the opera. Seems as though a talent scout heard her singing in the shower and signed her up. We're wondering where you were taking that shower Linda? Marjorie Huscher and Bob and Liz Felten and Joe can be seen quite often walking down the street follow- ed by a flock of junior birdmen. Guess the Air Force hands out phamplets on that too. Connie Reekes has finally married that preacher she was looking for. Shels going to preach the sermon this Sunday on Alcoholism . How about it, Connie are you pro or con? Tomi Bauer has given up nursing too. She found her true talents were in dramatics. Isn't that right Dahling? Bev Guthrie has just invented a non-breakable dress zipper. Now she can go to Sigma Chi parties with confidence. Sharon Black has just completed her first book, How to Mix Marriage With a Career. We tried to get an opinion from her husband Stan as to how it was working out, but he was in the middle of his cooking class and the instructor wouldnt let us bother him. Betty Smith's money-making projects have finally paid off. She got that patent on her plastic belts and now supplies them to the Nursing Office at St. Luke's. Runs quite a business too. Betty Harr has opened a maternity style shopg she likes the clothes so well, she does her own modeling . Georgia Deer has been the perfect farmer's wife, except for the brief period she spent at Menninge'r's for her obsessive compulsive behavior. It seems she was scrubbing the barn with wescodyne at mid- night? . , Dove Ann Gregory now holds the position of associate director of nursing education. Boy, do the stu- dents have fun these days! , , , Barbara Martin has a job writing propaganda for Russia. They recognized her talent for glamorizing the facts before we did. Marilyn Lewis and Jan Lindhart run a nursery sc ' i - JuSt couldn't possibly be true, but we heard they passed out sleeping. pills at nap time. . u Kay Dykes and Joy Fish are conducting evening classes for young millionaires of marriageable age in the hool while their husbands are working.

SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY 1960 The time is May, l970. As we gaze into our crystal ball, we see the amazing class of 1960 coming into view. Let's have roll call to see what each member has accomplished since graduation just ten short years ago. Wanda Riffel Smith and Dale have traded in their Volkswagon for the bus model. They had a problem trying to pile all fifteen kiddies in that little car. Ruth Ann Chester Lierz is still sitting at home knitting little things . Larry is off again, this time on a Carribean Cruise. We found Andie Walton in her shanty by the shores of Gitchie Goomie . She's a professional beach comber and at long last she never has to dress up. Her wardrobe consists of Bermudas, sweatshirts, and sneakers. Dorothy Hartzler is supervisor of the operating room now and she thinks she's found the right man. The only difficulty is, she's afraid to take off his mask. Shirley Oyler is now a happy homemaker and, believe it or not, she has won an award for having the tidiest house in her neighborhood. The only trouble - - her nearest neighbor is five miles away. Margie Daniel Grove and Rick are busy raising their own little sea men. Rick has high ambitions of starting his own Navy. Donna Wilson has a swank apartment at the Waldorf Astoria-- but she never uses the front door. Instead, she uses the fire escape. Oh well, Donna, we all know how hard it is to break a habit. Brenda Clark Resz and Dennis are celebrating their tenth wedding anniversary by sitting at home watch- ing television. They can't afford a baby sitter-- with six sets of twins, they've found it isn't cheaper by the dozen. Margaret Simpson has finally bought that Farrare-- she's thinking about racing it next year. Jess Wood has just announced the completion of her twelfth volume entitled What I Liked Most About Nurses' Training. if ' back home in Montana happily married to a prominent mortician. Needless to say, he does a good cover-up on any of her mistakes. Jane Akin, as ever, is her calm collected self and holds the position of supervisor of the emergency room. If there's no emergency, she creates one. Sharon Smith Moody is head nurse at one of Oklahoma's leading Indian reservations. You can see her and Joe at various teepees, followed by a whole tribe of little redheads. Sandra Drew left on a world cruise shortly after graduation and hasn't been heard from since. Must have been quite a trip. Terry .To Bradshaw has become famous for her endorsements of Whirlpools-- we mean lingerie, not washing machines. Senator Nancy Williams, member of the U. S. Senate, has become famous for filibustering for eight straight days. Quite a feat, and on the telephone too. Blossom Crooks and Maggie have become well-known philanthropists, but instead of giving of their earn1ngs,decided to give of their time. Winter will find them busily shoveling the sidewalks of St. Luke's and, you guessed it-- summer, mowing the grass. Donnealia Faulkner owns a cheese factory in Switzerland, but isn't making the money she had planned on. She eats all the monthly profits. Carolyn Pollard is still taking post graduate surgery courses back East. She still can't get it through her head that the scrub nurses don't scrub the doctors. Harlene Brizgint has been dormitory director at St. Luke's until recently when they found her setting up ladders for the students. Melba Pierce has since replaced her, needless to say the interior decorating is the latest in modern trepds. She does have a problem though, the Orthopods don't approve of the new mattresses-- bamboo ma s. - B 9 w nur Anr spo Ma: hea Bor and Pat a tl We We Thi Lin son Ma Joh Lol Pr: Nax ecc Nai cop Me Ma any Na4 dar Unf of : Ma tho Lir the Ma ed Col thi To Dai B e coi Sh: an cla Be no' Be Ge fo: nig Do dei Ba the M2 ju: Ka ar An be Wi th1
