When parents in the Upper Valley go in search of a babysitter, their best bet will probably be with a girl who is a certified graduate of a two-week baby care clinic. A baby care program co-sponsored by the Grafton County Cooperative Extension Service and the American Red Cross was held in conjunction with second-year pediatric student nurses at the Mary Hitchcock Memorial School of Nursing to present the course with emphasis on safety, emergencies and first aid treatment. Using a live model, two student nurses lectured to over 40 girls on April 9, 1968, at the West Lebanon Congregation Church in West Lebanon, N.H. (Valley News – XXX) Copyright Valley News.

Roland Stoodley, director of New Hampshire Technical Institute in Claremont, N.H., has not fully moved into his office yet but he still takes time to answer a telephone inquiry about the school on Aug. 28, 1968.
