I think it is only fitting to mention the spirit and enthusiasm shown by the girls who attended the game~ A few days ago I was rea ding some past Caps 'n Capes editorials and Letters to the Editor. I was surprised and some-what s addened to read one concerning the lack of attendance at the g2un es, especially the last one. I was hoping tha t I would not see a repetition of thi s at this yea:r 9 s fi nal game. I am happy to report tha t I didn't. Two bus loads of singing, happy players and spectators were transported to the gym at Ba la. Throughout the entire game both the players and the fans showed spirit that is i ndicative of a Jefferson student. Throughout the entire basketball season the team has shown us What the words "good sportsmanship" mean. And what is probably just as important, our fans have also been "go od sports" . The staff of Caps 'n Capes wish to extend thanks to all who supported the games. We also congratulate the coach, players, cheerleaders, and all those connected with the team in any way, for a j ob well donee Letter to the Editor Today we face a world crisis. Constantly, we hear "We mus t unite in peace" 9 and constantly we hear criticism o:f world leC:L ders. I wonder how many of us have bothered to ask ourselves " Vfua t do I do to con tribute to peace?" Peace 9 like cha:ri ty, begins at-home. If each of us made more effort to live peac efully with one another-perhaps the world would not be f ac i ne; t he crisis that it faces nowe ~ve detest the ugly thought of war. We fear the reality of destruction and loss t hat it brings. We are grateful for the peace of the past years, and hopeful for a secure future. But do we detest , and fearj and hope etough to aJ.ter our ovm ways? Do we want pea ce strongly enough to sacrifice self-pride and self-endurance for pride in someone elsevs deeds? So many times in self-concern, we neglect kindness, consideration, tho ughtfulness-these, the small and often unnoticed qualities tha t blend to gether and make peacee Peace must begin here ••• now ••• with you and with me. The shock of a threat of war has malie me realize many shortcomi 11 gs i 11 may daily encounters with people; has it you? Sincerely 9 Polly Zimmerman 1 Senior Spotlight Hallidaysburg, Penn sylvania has certainly made a valuable contribution to Jefferson-in the form of Jeanie Little. They must feel the same pride as we do when Jeani e serves as a representative of Jefferson-as she has done on so many occasions. To name a few of her out-standing contributions: she was a member of chorus, the Bowling Team, and cheerleading her first year; s.N.A.P. representative and captain of cheerleading her second year, and is currently serving as President of Area One in the Student Nurses Associa tion of Pennsylvania. In addition to these, she has represen ted Jefferson at several conventions, inclu ding the National Student Nurses Associati on convention held in Detroit, Michigan last March. Jeanie represents Jefferson a t its finest. All its enthusiasm, its s pirit, its loyalty, its friendlines s , and its ideals come to life t hrough her. Her war mth and sincerity have endeared her to t h e entire student body. In appreciation f or all you_r effor ts, and for just being our friend- we SPOTIJIGHT you, Jeanie Iji t t le, and we pledge ou_r support and co-operation in all yo11-l:' endeavors to further the J II goals of " ef f .

Kentucky; abbr . The Delightful Creature Between the innocency of an entrance exam amd the digni ty of an R.N., there comes the del i ghtful creature-the student nurse. They come in assorted sizes, weights and shapes, and they all have the very same creed-to enjoy every second of every hour of every day, off and on, and to protest with griping (their only weapon) when their forty hours are over and the supervi sors are j _ n the snack bar! Student nurses are found everywhere--underneath everything or jumpi11g through, swimming from or running over. Patients love them, doctors tolerate them, and nothing protects them. · ~ student nurse is truth with blood on her uniform, beauty with gloves on her hands, wisdom wi th Abbocillin in her hair and the future with scissors in her pocket~ To t he doctors a student nurse is an inconsiderate, ques tioning and i n truistic jangle of noise. When you Wc-:int her to make an impression, she becomes a sadi stic, giggling creature, ben t on wasting as much time as possible and sleeping through classes . A student nurse is a composite--she has the appetite of a horse, the digestion of an ulcer patient, the energy of an s .s. enema, the lungs of a telephone operator, the imagination of a Vanderbilt grad, the enthusiasmmof central supply, the sharpness of a scapel, the audacity of a nurses' aide, and when she gives an injection, she has five thumbs on either handi . She likes food (few potatoes), vacations, Chri stmas, money from home, love stories, officers, water in its n a tural habitat, doctors , working elev .tors, a£f duty, and fire alarms.

She is your aide, your mail, your porter, and your clas smateL She is a freckle-faced, long legged, fun-loving bundle of noise. But when she gets off duty with her aching feet and her tired back 9 she drops into bed with a fl op and tells you goodnight with those famous last words 9 "Wake me at 6:00.
