Three Former Nurses Attend
Fiftieth Graduation Reunion
Three women, who 50 years
ago were graduated as nurses
from Augustana hospital in Chi
cago, are holding a class reunion
in Medford. The three are Mrs.
Martin Thorndahl, Eugene, Ore.,
Mrs. George Gelchell, Seattle,
and Mrs. Josephine Iverson, 60
Ross court, Medford. A fourth
member of the class of 16 nurses
had planned to come but was
forced to cancel the trip.
Thursday evening, anniver
sary of the graduation, the three
former classmates had dinner to
gether at the Medford hotel, and
yesterday afternoon they were
guests of Miss Margaret Nason,
Old Stage road, at a tea. The two
visitors are spending several
days here as guests of Mrs. Iver
son and are having a fine time
reminiscing about their days as
undergraduate nurses.
The three women all worked
as registered nurses following
their graduation. Mrs. Getchell
was a surgical nurse. She worked
In Seattle for 10 years, and in
Alaska for a year before retir
ing. Mrs. Thorndahl also nursed
for several years, and for a time
was head of a hospital at Cedar
Falls, la. Mrs. Iverson nursed in
Eau Clair, Wise, before retiring
from the profession.
Although they recognize the
advancements made in the nurs
ing profession, all three said that
nurses were well trained in their
day too. At Augustana hospital
only high school graduates were
accepted as vobntioners, and
after the end of two years of
training, they were given a state
examination before being regis
tered. They believe that student
nurses were given more prac
tical training than they are now,
and less theoretical training.
Some traditions remain the
same, the three pointed out. As
probationers they wore all-blue
uniforms, as most hospital
schools do today, then blue and
white stripes when they ad
vanced to full student status, and
the all-white uniform with spe
cial cap which is still worn by
present-day nurses.
Augustana hospital, where
they trained, is still one of Chi
cago's finest and largest hospi
tals, they said, although now
having a large, modem building
erected in recent years. The
three women all remembered Dr.
A. J. Ochsner, said to be one of
the outstanding surgeons of the
time and who was on the staff of
Augustana hospital, and his
brother, Dr. Edward Ochsner. an
outstanding medical expert. The
two Ochsners were classmates
of the famous Drs. Charles and
William Mayo.
Augustana's superintendent of
nurses when the three graduated
was Miss Lela Plckard.
Mrs. Getchell and Mrs. Thorn
dahl are remaining In Medford
