Page Four THE SKYSCRAPER March 7,1962 It's been a real thrill all week looking at pictures of John Glenn and his space ship. Outer space is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there. Three out of four passengers vowed that Therese Marren, who ran an elevator for the first time during the math tournament, should have volunteered her services for Colonel Glenn's training program. The irony of it all . . . Bobbi Brzezinski, after eagerly anticipat ing the opening of the new parking lot, found that after she got in, she couldn't get out. Seems that her accelerator pedal became frozen. She had to leave her car and take the CTA home. Their Tuesday evening compan ions have become very close to the hearts of a group of sophs. On that day every week they can be found at Angel Guardian Orphan age in the company of 30 boys ages 3 to 6. HEARD IN THE HALLS: Who are you taking to the Shhhow? Why Shhheldon, of course, . . . Judy Salzinski and Patti Tighe planning their upcoming weekend at Purdue. RED FACES: Sue Thelin and Elaine Casello, releasing some ex tra energy by playing Hop-scotch outside of the tearoom, were be ing closely observed by two bewil dered faculty members. When Sue finally realized that their activity was being analyzed, she muttered something about both of them hav ing sprained ankles. Then they looked at one another and ran away He fell for her: a ski jump pro vided the setting for the recent en gagement of Lisa Muhlhauser to Ray Jacobson. Mr. Patricelli, in an effort to sim plify the difficult mathematical con cept of Solids of Revolution, illus trated his topic by use of such non- mathematical terms as engagement rings and candy kisses. Regarded as the best lecture of the year by an overwhelming majority of the class. And speaking of interesting lec tures, Barbara Zbylsik was so en grossed in Mr. Dolezal's comments on Cleopatra that she kept chewing harder and harder on the tip of her fountain pen. After a few min utes, Barb was forced to leave the class with a blue-black mouth and chin her Snorkel snorted. And from Klubertanz, Philoso phy of Beans, comes this quip Cannibal Chief: What's for din ner? Wife: Baked BEINGS. Maureen O'Brien was delighted with a surprise package from Ko rea. She received a silk scarf on which was painted a water color portrait of herself. She says she'd classify this picture as A-l. Guess they were serious about the faculty parking lot. Even when the padlock isn't locked, it's almost impossible to lift the latch which opens the gate. Of course, I was only experimenting not trying to get in or anything like that . . . That's all for now, Tee Pee P.S. Thank you for all the cards and letters expressing your sym pathy. But I'm off the critical list at Slenderella's now. Faculty/Member Receives Grant To Write Book Sister Mary Irma, B.V.M., was awarded a 3,000 grant from the American Association of University Women entitling her to research and writing abroad during 1962-63.

He drew the plans for the city of Philadelphia and made the first maps of the state. Sister plans on leaving Chicago the last week in May and spending the month of June in Pennsylvania doing preliminary research. Then she will fly to England to attend an Oxford summer session in 17th cen tury political and cultural history.

'Teach' Leads Two Lives by Virginia Piecuch There Bernice, I told you it wouldn't be hard to jump in deep water for the first time, reminded Miss Judy. Oh, it wasn't hard. But why didn't you tell me to close my mouth? questioned her pupil. This is but one of the summer encounters of junior English-jour nalism major Judy Kiolbassa. For five and a half years she has worked at the Northwestern University Settlement, 1400 Augusta Blvd. as a recreation leader during the win ter and as a camp swimming in structor and program director dur ing the summer. ENGAGING in a game of jacks are Judy Kiolbassa and her sister Kathy. Miss Judy or Teach as she is called by the girls from 9 to 16 years of age enjoys her job, which mainly consists of control ling about 30 children per day in a game room. I'm probably the only student in this school who plays jacks, she grins. By the way, the favorite game of the younger girls is jacks. Other activities which keep Judy busy at the settlement weekdays and Saturdays include aiding the children to build confidence through having them read aloud, chaperon ing parties, sending out letters and answering the switchboard. Judy, as a chaperone, has proba bly attended more parties at frater nity houses without being noticed than most college women. The hosts seldom talk to her, but she is well fed. Summers are spent at the Camp House in the Wood, Delavan, Wis. In addition to teaching swimming, Judy is in charge of all beach ac tivities. The girls and I have a lot of fun doing things like sinking an aluminum canoe and rowing out to the center of the lake for a song fest, she recalls. Present sports editor of the Skyscraper, Judy especially likes swimming and baseball. dent, recently announced several gifts from friends and businesses. The Frank J. Lewis Charitable Trust donated 10,000 while an anonymous donor added 10,000 to a memorial fund of 20,000 for the dorm. John Clarke, chairman of the President's Council, presented the college with a rug worth 2,500. The administration has not decided where the rug will be placed. Another member of the Council, Bob Podesta has given 1,200 in stock to the college. Interestingly, Mr. Podesta's wife, Corrine Murnig- han '34, was the first Mundelein student to pay her tuition. Both Mr. Clarke and Mr. Podesta helped in investing alumnae funds in stock. Mundelein as a member of the Associated Colleges of Illinois has received considerable gifts from the Santa Fe Foundation, Standard Oil Foundation, United States Steel Foundation, Inc., International Har vester Company and Inland Steel Company.
