I Future Nurses' Club officers, Margaret Hazinski, Anne Weatherhead, Rita Martin and Kathy Jones, decide on speakers for future meetings. Prospective Nurses Learn From Professionals Those students whose dreams will materialize with the acquisition of the white cap familiarized them- selves, during the i958-1959 sessions of the Future Nurses' Club, with a great variety of duties relating to their chosen profession. Guest speakers included a laboratory technician and a U. S. Army Nurse, each of whom awakened interest in her respective field. To supplement the vocational lectures and to as- sist the busy doctors of the Polio Clinic of Northern indiana Children's Hospital, the girls cleaned syr- inges for the distribution of the Salk vaccine, The club attended a friendly open-house at the Saint Joseph Nursing School and toured the newly constructed wing of Saint Joseph Hospital, thereby gaining a closer knowledge of nursing activities and home life. To conclude a full and satisfying season all girls who had been members for two or more years re- ceived the pins they so long desired. A special committee of the Future Nurses' Club, designated to report a visit to St. .loseph's Hospital, select the topics.
