Page Four THE DAILY SENTINEL, Sitka, Alaska Friday, January 17, In and About Sitka SJC officials consider offering of Licensed Practical Nurses course Twenty-five Sitka Mt. Edgecumbe doctors and 1 nurses met at Sheldon Jackson College Sunday evening, Jan. 12, to help college officials decide whether to begin a Licensed Practical Nurses course next fall. Dr. Orin R.

Stratlon, president, and Robert Youngblood, dean of the college, felt that the best way to determine the feasibility of a new practical nurses program was to consult exprcts on the subject. Areas of discussion included these questions: Is there a need for such a program? Docs Sheldon Jackson have the facilities for offering one? Does the community offer adequate clinical experience for the hours of training required of practical nurses? Consensus of. opinion from those present was that there is a great need for Licensed Practical Nurses and that the college has excellent classroom and dormitory facilities for the program. The question remained: Are the opportunities for clinical in the hospitals of the community adequate? Doctors and nurses pointed out that the number of hours required in psychiatric nursing and possibly also in obstetrical and be available here. The total clinical training now availabel in Sitka hospitals is apparently not adequate for the establishment of an accredited L.P.N.

program. It was suggested by several present, however, that unused opportunities for clinical experience are present in a community for instance in home situations. Tliroughout the country licensed practical nurses will be working in new situations and it was stressed that training should be for future, not past, needs. Next step by college officials will be to explore these questions further, perhaps with the help of resource persons from state and national nursing organizations. The same method of consulting experts in the field was followed by the college last year before initiating courses in Forestry, Fisheries and Logging Management.

That program is now operating successfully with 22 students.

O'Donnell, a widower, and Frances Brady, a widow, are assured of a big turnout for their marriage Feb. 2 at Blessed Sacrament Church in Jamaica Plain section. O'Donnell, an assistant city clerk, recently solved the housing shortage. He bought a three-family home and is converting it into a 16-room, one family residence, O'Donnell, thin and bespectacled, has 13 children--seven sons and six daughters, ranging in age from 8 through 25. Mrs.

Brady, plump and pretty, has 10 children, from 9 to 26. "I know it sounds startling to most people, but when you have such a large family a few more doesn't present such a O'Donnell said. He added that Fran has three children married "and my three oldest girls will be sharing an apartment, so we will number only 19." The children of each family joined in'helping send wedding invitations. And, naturally, all are looking forward to the big day. "The experience of raising a large family is unique," O'Donnell said.

"It's really quite different from bringing up two or three. If two people in our situation fall in love, this experience creates a very special sort of bond." How did the happy couple meet? When Mrs. Brady took a job in the city clerk's department. And, naturally, they bumped into each other in the office where births and marriages are recorded. "I was chatting with Fran and another widow on the staff," O'Donnell recalled Thursday.

"When I went to get some refreshments, the other girl turned to Fran and said jokingly, 'He's a widower, but I hate to tell you. He has 13 children."
