FUTURE NURSES THEY ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO A FUTURE BRIGHT WITH ANTICIPATION OF PERT UNIFORMS AND. BARS ON THEIR SHOULDERS AS ARMY NURSES. LEFT TO right: NADA FRYER, LOUISE BALL, EDNA LICHFIELD, LAWANA BISHOP MARJORIE McKEE, MELBA BREWER, MRS. RHODA MINER, INSTRUCTOR, AND LOUISE BARR. LOUISE BALL SMILES BACK AT THE GRINNING SKULL. EDNA LICHFIELD AND MARJORIE McKEE CUT OFF A RTICE OF THE LUNG TO BE EXAMINED MORE CLOSELY UNDER THE MICROSCOPE. THE SKULL SMILES BACK AT THE GRINNING HELEN HORNE AND FAYE LONGHURST. NO, HELEN ISN'T THE VICTIM THIS TIME. SHE'S INFLATING A LUNG WITHOUT THE AID OF MECHANICAL DEVICES. NADA FRYER AND LOUISE BALL LISTEN AS MRS. MINER EXPLAINS THE ACTION. SNAPPY uniforms and commissions as second lieutenants in the army or ensigns in the navy are the goals of nine Weber college coeds. These girls are studying to enter training as professinoal nurses in June. Preliminary courses 'of biological science are taught to give them a background of principles to be applied practically when they actually become student nurses at the Dee hospital. Although the girls will be studying and training for two and a half years they feel no hint of envy for the girls who are earning fabulous salaries in defense industries. Most of the girls have always wanted to become nurses and now they have a chance to realise their ambitions with Uncle Sam paying the way. "Some people think we're silly to go into training now when we could have so many work opportunities, but they'll feel differently when they see our uniforms with bars on the shoulders," one girl remarked. Three of the girls, Marjorie McKee, Edna Litchfield, and Helen Home are pursuing regular courses at Weber and participate actively in school functions beside their nursing work. Louise Barr, Melba Brewer, Lawana Bishop, and Nada Fryer stay at the nurse's home. The others will live at their homes in Ogden until June, when they will join the others. Faye Longhurst is the working gal of the bunch. She works as a waitress at a downtown cafe, besides keeping up in her many studies. They are all enthusiastic about their work. "We have lots of fun blowing up lungs and dissecting hearts in the lab," Louise Ball explained. "Yes, we can hardly wait until we can start doing it to real people," Melba Brewer said, with a humorous glance at her audience to make sure that they realized that she was being witty rather than sadistic. These girls are among the finest. They all passed stiff mental and physical exams and were among the highest third in their high school graduating classes before they were accepted into the nursing group. Their personalities are those of an ordinary group of healthy, intelligent, attractive girls. "Rose Ann of Charing Cross" is their favorite song. Their favorite sport is playing tricks on one another. Mrs. Rhoda Miner is their favorite teacher and confidant. And of course Weber college is their choice as the friendliest, best school with which they have yet been associated. LAWANA BISHOP, left, AND LOUISE BARR LOOK AT THE DISEASED MEMBRANE THAT MRS. MINER, CENTER, IS TELLING ABOUT. AS MELBA BREWER; left, SO APTLY EXPLAINS IT TO NADA FRYER, "THE EYE CONSISTS OF THE IRIS, CORNEA, MUSCLES, AND LENS OR SOMETHING." 29
