Nine Young Women Are Graduated From Wyckoff Heights Hospital School

Simple ceremonies marked the graduation last night of nine young women from 
the Wyckoff Heights Hospital training school for nurses held in the auditorium 
of the Bushwick High School, Irving avenue and Woodbine street.
The graduates took the modified Hippocratic Oath, repeating it after Dr. 
Rudolf HERRIMAN of the hospital staff. The oath resembles that taken by 
physicians with the promise "not to administer harmful drugs or break 
the confidences imposed by patients and their families."

Thelma FREDENBURGH, valedictorian, received an award for making the highest 
mark in theory studies and Dorothy M. OBERNESSER received a prize for having 
the highest efficiency record.

The invocation was delivered by the Rev. A. J. MEYER, the address of welcome 
by Jacob BARTSCHERE, the diplomas were presented by Philip JUNG and the class 
pins given to the graduates by Miss Anna L. SCHULZE, director of nurses of the 
hospital.

The Rev. Hugh M. GRAHAM described the profession of nursing as the "most 
beautiful and most humane of all." A nurses chorus under the direction 
of Herbert FISS sang three selections.

The graduates were:
Blanche D. AUDELEVICZ
Frances ELLIS
Josephine KIELB
Dorothy Margaret OBERNESSER
Barbara MUIR STEVENSON
Elizabeth Charlotte SONNTAG
Thelma FREDENBURGH
Ellen Elizabeth SHARAR 
Dorothy TIBBILS
