It's Almost Tune sfc The ProfeSSOY For Spring bports Freshmen Chalk Up Win Over Sophomores In an intramural rolleyball game on March 23, the freshman team won a 28-27 victory over the sophomores. Adding up the score for the fresh men were Mary Gullo, Peggy Selz, Lil lian Loguidice, Mary Driscoll, Patricia Heath, and Beth Goodwillie.

Balm;' weather, besides inducing spring fever, is a magnet, drawing all fresh-air lovers to the great outdoors. The Women's Athletic Association, anticipating spring weather after Eas ter, has sent out a reminder that the way to enjoy nature, to chase away that lethargic feeling, and to pile up points for a W.A.A. letter, all in a single motion, is to improve one's skill in springtime sports. A canter in Lincoln Park before breakfast is hardly possible, but longer days give everyone a chance to take a trot down the bridle paths before din ner. Five W.A.A. points for every hour is the award for this effort. The Loyola tennis courts soon will be revived after the unsympathetic win ter, and the W.A.A. will offer five points an hour to the student who gives her time to wielding a racquet. If any student can find a golf ball, she can pick up 25 points for each hour she spends in pursuit of that ball down the fairway.

The mystery and suspense of un wrapping a present is always exciting, and, when the present is from a far-off place that to most of us is only a name in a geography book, it is even more exciting. Patricia Tubby has good cause to be proud of the gold cross sent to her from Rome. The cross carries the bless ing of our Holy Father. Pope Pius XII. ... A gold cross, made by the natives of Oran, North Africa, is being worn by Mary Kay Fitzpatrick. Margaret Monckton prizes the hand kerchiefs she received from the Aleu tians, while Bernice Bielawa is equally fond of the one she received from Honolulu. . . . Every time a certain ship puts into a new port. Rita Guianne receives a new addition to her hand kerchief collection. Award for the most useful present from overseas goes to Constance Cross, who received a cookbook of English recipes from Great Britain. A Turkish hat, appropriately enough from Turkey, is the prized possession of Patricia Czarnecki. . . .

Truly a souvenir of battle is the Japanese dagger senior Mary Kay Quinn had sent to her from the Marshall Islands. . . . Ida Glabman is displaying an alli gator vanity case from Argentina. Imported perfume is the boast of Jean Zohringer, who received some from Honolulu. . . . Madeleine Court ney's Chanel No. 5 was purchased in Egypt but delivered in person.

Georgette Demos models both gloves and purse sent to her from Africa. . . . Also in the leather goods line is Edna Mae Holm's brief case from North Africa. With silk stockings only a mem ory now, Mary C. Tuomey was sur prised with a gift of one dozen pair of them from Mexico. . . . Mary Beecn- er, Medea Galie, Nora Foley, and Mari lyn McClaren are wearing bracelets made from Japanese planes clowned in the South Pacific. . . .

Another scarf from a cold climate is a gift to Barbara Brennan from Alaska. . . . Lois Shay's wooden bracelet came from Hawaii. . . . Victoria Greco is wearing a pin of Italian cut glass from Italy. The strange looking dollars and odd coins in many Mundeleinites' purses are examples of the foreign currency servicemen and women are sending home. Virginia Boots has Japanese money from Tarawa, Ida Cardone, coins from Brazil, Mary Jane Hum- mell, a Hawaiian dollar, and Patricia Ebbeson, Chinese coins. . . . The latest edition to Audrey Tobin's scarf ward robe is an R.A.F. one sent from Eng land.

Scenery o sists mostly of the jungle, coca palms, and mountains that shoot rij up from the water's edge into theckd The climate is rather more pleaa than that of Chicago in summer, I though dampish. The other nijU went to a movie and the audience offJ thousand sat through a double fett while it rained so one could hardr/i the screen. But since the rain is ikfl the same temperature as the air, l does not mind it We have lots of natives here, 'lM cocoa-colored people about the siai 12-year-old children, with woolly k and better manners than many of i more civilized whites in the Sa They help with many of the ran jobs of construction. Their lew habit of working has earned them name New Guinea WPA.
