Helen Cribb Passes State Pharmacy Exam
Is Now Registered Pharmacist
Qualified to Operate Own Drugstore
Helen I. Cribb may now place "Registered" before her degree of
Pharmaceutical Chemist, it was learned last week-end in a letter
from Springfield announcing that she passed the state
examinations for a registered pharmacist with a high average.
As a registered Pharmaceutical Chemist, she is now qualified not
only to fill prescriptions, but also to operate a drugstore of
her own. According to her present plans she will remain at
Reeves' Drug Store where she has worked the past nine years.
Miss Cribb was the only woman out of last year's class of 150
students in the College of Pharmacy, University of Illinois,
Chicago, to qualify for the examination. Eligibility requires
four years of work as a registered apprentice in a drug store.
Miss Cribb was also one out of seven women to graduate from the
course last June, when she received her degree of Pharmaceutical
Chemist. She took the state examination which decided whether
she could place "Registered" in front of her degree, Jan. 10 at
Springfield.
Among other distinctions to her credit, Helen Cribb entirely
earned her way through school, working week-ends and summers even
while she was attending school in Chicago. She is a daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Fred Cribb and a graduate of Antioch Township High
School.
