Faraway places with strange foreign names lured 15 Mundelein students and alumnae to Europe during the summer months. Returning from abroad with suitcase stickers from exciting places and con tinental berets, the students agree that the Pilgrimage to Rome and the audi ence with the Holy Father were most memorable events of the tour. Those on the NSA trip exchanged impressions on the S.S. Volcndam, de layed two days because of storms. Sophomore Joan Bruno remembers particularly her two weeks spent on the Italian Riviera with relatives. Miss Bru no had not seen her aunt or grandmother for five years. They traveled with her to Rome and through northern Italy, of which she says: It was an experience I shall never forget. Senior Mary Peters spent most of her tourtime studying in Fribourg, Switzer land. Giving a new light on the Euro pean universities as contrasted with American colleges, Miss Peters favors the American schools for undergraduates, since in the foreign schools there are large percentages of older students. Miss Peters spent her vacation weekends in Rome. Senior Sally Wasserman is convinced that her most exciting day was in Lon don. While strolling down Whitehall one afternoon, Sally found herself, and a crowd, in front of No. 10 Down ing street. After a few moments a car pulled up and Messrs. Winston Churchill and Anthony Eden stepped out. That same evening Sally attended a perform ance of Ring Around the Moon. Purely by chance, the Queen of England was present. Senior Dorothy Feery spent some time travelling through the Chateau country of France. While touring the castle of Loches, where Joan of Arc spoke to Charles II, she was accidentally locked in the tower. She had paused to watch some hawks. After 45 agonized minutes of pounding on the thick wooden door and waving a slip of white paper through the keyhole, she was rescued by a French guard. Senior Mary Ellen Ward recalls her last day in Rome as one of the best of the summer. Fascinated by the exterior of the Church of the Trinity on the Mount, Miss Ward called at the ad joining convent for admission to the church. An Italian nun took her through the church and into the convent where a miraculous picture of the Virgin is pre served over the altar. Sophomore Dorothy Hertl, who traveled with her family, remembers especially the Passion Play at Oberam- mergau given in a theatre packed with over 5,000 people. I found it difficult, Miss Hertl re ports, to believe that the actors are, in everyday life, woodcarvers, inn-keepers, and station attendants. They seemed ac tually inspired by supernatural aid in performing a flawless tribute of thanks to Almighty God. Marilyn Kolar, Jean Schaefer, and Catherine Benz discover that Student Directory information requires considerable research. The 1950-1951 Direc tories, including calendars for the year, will be on sale next week. Faculty Member Injured In Automobile Accident Miriam L. Rooney, Ph.D., of the Eel- ucation department, is in Mercy hos pital, recovering from injuries incurred in an automobile accident, Sept. 27.

A pioneer member of the Mundelein Faculty. Mrs. Rooney is the wife of Francis J. Rooney. assistant dean of the Loyola law school. Two Mundelein freshmen, Laureen Walsh and Sheila Corcoran, escaped injury Sept. 28, when a motorist lost control of his car where Sheridan Road turns at the lakeside parking lot. .
