SI u crapinad As we look around and see happy, sun-tanned faces, it is easy to conclude that some of us have visited warmer climates during Easter vacations. Believe it or not, some of the girls did not go to Florida. Kathleen Mc- guire and Maricolette Powers found the crescent city of New Orleans very exciting. The East also attracted visitors from Mundelein. Providence, R.I., was the vacation spot picked by Betty Gonwa. That wonderful town of New York was visited by Mary Phyllis Fulgaro, Eleanor Ferraina, Kathy Murphy, Arlene Douglas, Sharon Ruppert, Kathy Gottschalk and Nancy Itnyre. Europe was the destination of Sheila Leahy who journeyed to Rome, Paris and Ireland. Sheila made this trip to attend her brother's ordination as a Servite priest. While the vacationers were playing, there were some girls who still kept busy. Mary Lou Brady and Patricia Novak worked 12 hours a day for five days at the National Catholic Library convention. The fruit of their free labor was a paper which they put out all by themselves. Marilyn Picchietti, Elizabeth Curylo and Marianne Witte had an interesting time as they visited the Stock Exchange. Now we come to the holiday social whirl. Joan Murphy repeated her acti vity of last year as she once again attended Loyola's Phi Mu Chi Easter dance. Mary Ellen Kelly and Rita Aim attended the Notre Dame Chicago club dance. Michele Dolphin danced at the Grinnell college spring formal. Nazaris Ashtor and Joyce Robinson spent a Sunday at Marquette. Eileen McAvoy and Gerr. Ptacek attended the St. Joseph's college Chicago club dance. Dances, however, were not the only activities which kept the girls busy. The cast of the Music Man found quite an appreciative audience in the pres ence of Mary Ann Wilczynski, Peggy McLennon, Connie Teipe, Kathy Curley, Sharon O'Shea, Mary Ellen Burg, Barbara Bukowski and Marian Hills. Mary Pat Dorsey and Irene Lizak spent an evening at the circus. Barbara Guderian joined the merriment at the University of Illinois' spring carnival. Pre-vacation activities also kept a few girls dancing. Virginia Kakocinski was the queen of the TEKE St. Patrick's dance. Also dancing at De Paul were Kathleen Huhmann and Eileen Clark. Looking to the future are Alice Connelly, Marilyn Parrilli and Ann Williams as they plan their trip to the U.S. Air Force academy in Denver for the Spring Promenade. Easter vacation also resulted in good news from four more Mundelein girls. Claudette Conrad received a Notre Dame ring from Chuck Carroll. Charlene Hincks is engaged to Jack McLaughlin and Barbara Covey said yes to Robert Stadler. Judy Kenaga received a diamond ring from Gary Walsh on April 1, he wasn't fooling. Valmar Price married John Bruehl April 4 at Immaculate Conception church.
