Step right up for a sight-seeing tour of Chicago, said the enthu siastic gentleman in front of the blue and white bus. So we stepped up, paid our fares, and settled down to enjoy the sights. We were surprised to see Lilli an Walsh sitting across from us. She had just been to see the Nut cracker Ballet. Mary Ann Stone, a ecent patron of the Chevy Chas* Country club, was next to her. The bus started up Michigan avenue, and as it passed over the river, we spotted Barbara Bick, Lorraine Gualtiere, and Kathleen Slattery coming from Oklahoma. We sped north along the spark ling lake, but Mary Jane Hanigan was going the other way to the Junior prom at Holy Cross college in Worcester, Massachusetts. It was in the 6500 block on Sher idan road that Arlene Douglas, Jeanine Dwyer, Isabelle Anderson, Rita De St. Aubin, Eileen McAvoy, Patricia Raczynski, Francine Res- zutko, Barbara Guderian, and Ly dia and Lynda Rousseau got off the bus to visit Loyola's Spring time fair. We turned south, and returned to the Loop once more. On the corner of State and Washington, we waved to Mary Jane Walt- house, Natalie Indelli, Patricia Purney, Dawn McKee, Susan Bart lett, Mary Lou McCambridge, and Mary O'Malley, who were planning to attend Pi Alpha Lambda's Mon aco party. Window shopping at State street windows were Nancy Ann Smith, Mary Christy, Maureen Sul livan, and Florence Hutchinson who danced the night before at St. Gertrude's Young People's club. The driver called our attention to the Palmer house, but we missed it completely because we were leaning out the window talking to Constance Teipe driving up to John Carroll's Military ball. She was going to drop off Marilynn Ryan at Notre Dame for the Jun ior Prom, and Patricia O'Donnell at Cleveland for the Senior Prom at John Carroll. Down the street from the Opera House came Virginia Brewster who had been to see Harry Bela- fonte. With her was Diane Sci- fres talking about the IIT dinner dance. We toured South Chicago then, and south was the destination of Marivivian Cunnea, Sheila Cole man, Karlene Oeser, Diane O'Neill, and Maribeth Naughton, because that was the way to the Spring Carnival at Illinois. Margaret Printen was going their way, but to the Military ball. The trip was soon over, and, as we descended from the bus, we col lided with Loretta Kinzig on her way to Mercy Hospital Nursing School's square dance, and with Mary Anne Walczak and Laurene Giannini rushing to catch a bus to St. Joseph's college prom. Nearby were Alvena Scheell, Lynne Sheeran, Judy Sundstrom, Betty Flanigan, Diane Hoffman, Vivian Giunchedi, Joanne Gilmore, and Nanette Wendling, talking about De Paul's Woodchopper ball. Most interested of all in the bri dal gowns of Grace Kelly Grimal- di and Margaret Truman Daniel are newly engaged girls Stephanie Jackson who is engaged to Salva- tore Ferrara, Margaret Coughlan to Daniel O'Shea, Geraldine Kirby to William Shriver, Jane Murphy to Kenneth Martin, Patricia Den ny engaged to Thomas Moody, and Ann Michels to Frank Burke, and Therese Salvato to John Luce.
