Nursing Class
The shortage of professional
nurx-s and related medical-tech -
Inkjl workers has become <■
! acute that the board of directors
juf Norfolk General Hospital an
j rvounced yesterday :t has authoriz
j ed a special clas> to begin Febru
ary i. 1954. f- : the enrollment of
! 25 quai.fieci high who i graduates
m the institution’s School of
• Nursing
Charles L. Kaufman, president
joi the hospital, said those selected
I for the class will be given schol
arships at no ct at to the students
for the three-year training course
which will qualify them as gradu
ate professional nurses
The unprecedented action is i
linked with a nation-wide short- i
age of nurses hich \\ alter I.
Beale, superintendent of the. hos- j
pital, described a» second only to ,
the shortage of primary and sec- 1
ondary teachers and "is equally
threatening in its implications for
the welfare of the country.’’
Supply Inadequate
Beale said that while "we have .
more graduate nurses today than
ever before, more graduates ac
tively practicing, and more train
ing non-professional nurses, the
supply is by no means adequate
to meet the increasing demands
fur care." He added that more
nurses are going into industry,
public health, doctor's offices and
in related- fields than ever before.
The three-year scholarships. I
which aie valued at about $3,000
each, will be offered to qualified ‘
high school graduates over 18
years of age ui the order in which
applications are received and pro
cessed. High school principals,
counsellors, physicians, ministers
and others are being urged to lend
then voices in encouraging young
women to enter the school and
qualifv for a profession which m 1
recent years, has been enjoying j
increasing monetary and other re- j
wards.
Beale said Norfolk General
Hospital is not alone in facing a j
growing nurse shortage, but is;
feeling it more acutely than some
other institutions, as it has the
largest non-government plant in ;
Virginia, accommodating close to
375 patients.
Illustrative of the problem,
Beaie said, the hospital could
easily have accommodated 45 new
students when the regular class j
opened last month but found only [
17 of the applicants were quail-!
fied. The school as a whole, he
said, could easily train 135 nurses
but actually has only 55 enrolled.
Inducements Offered
He said vaiious inducements are
being offered to high school
graduates here and elsewhere to
choose nursing for their life’s
work, and pointed out thut Nor
folk General has all the facilities,
educational and recreation ad
vantages that should be atlfrac
tive to young women studying at
the school.
An additional advantage at Nor
folk Geneial. according to Miss
Mary Love Gieen, director of
nurses, is the location here of
the Norfolk Division, College of
William and Mary-VPI, which of
fers the student body certain of
the necessary courses leading up
to a diploma.
Miss Love said the special class
should be of interest to high school
students who are graduating in
February, but pointed out that
graduates of earlier years will be
considered.
Beale said prospective students
who are interested should direct
inquiries regarding the new class
to Miss Love.

In Williamston, Pastor R. E.

will be used to purchase peanut
butter for famine stricken peoples
overseas Mr. Walston pointed out
that a North Carolina manufac
turer sells peanut butter to
Church World Service at about
thirty cents a pound. Thus Martin
County’s gift to the fund provides
an outlet foy one of the County’s
