An entry fee will be charged for each class to cover the costs of the trophies and ribbons to be awarded to the winners. Anyone who is interested in rid ing in the show may contact Sharon McCann, Locker 156. Si udcrapinaA We brush the icicles aside from our nimble little finger tips, surround our leaky schnoz with plenty of absorbent Kleenex, reflect upon the bliss of warm sunlight and budding flowers, quickly down two aspirins in dis gust and hurl our boots back into the closet. We must confess, however, a gleam of hope, since it is rumored that the Midwest perch prophet has predicted a stifling hot summer. There are a few words that we could address to his fine finny friends but suffice it to say that the only good perch is a dead perch. If you happened to be tuned in to the 6 o'clock news with Frank Reynolds two Fridays ago, we reassure you that all those weary but excited people in front of the bus were really from Mundelein. The students and members of the faculty who each volunteered to participate in the march to Montgomery have returned with some wide-eyed experi ences to tell. If you'd like some tongue-tipping conversation bits about the journey we understand that the Mundelein contingent, thanks to Sister Mary Ann Ida, Mr. Hewitt and the kitchen staff, was the bread basket of the South when they arrived laden with boxes, bags, crates and bundles of food, glorious food. A seat was even saved for the benefits of indiscriminate munching. Not only was the group well-fed but likewise well-trained in defense against clubbing, tear gas and horse trampling within the first five minutes of their arrival. This should prove very facilitating for many come next registration day. So even if civil rights in Alabama isn't in the mainstream of your thought, you might be interested in what these people have to say. Chicago isn't the heart of brotherhood either. If it's not too late to mention the revue, it's our observation that the professional praises given cast and crew were well-deserved. However, we still have a gnawing curiosity about the identity of that man. Some of Mundelein's Terrapin water babes went splashing around in the Sheraton-Chicago's Hawaiian swimming pool a few weekends ago for a reperfomiance of their water show. Frantic preparations included a desperate plea for anyone with a speakable Donald Duck accent. Their cry was successful in yielding one polished squawker but we've noticed in recent days, some rejects audibly brushing up on their squawking. Mouseketeers, unite We find it necessary now to turn our emotions to the annual sorrow and commiserate with those who have survived their comprehensive ex aminations having undergone no small amount of intrepidation and fear. We personally gleefully enjoyed a holiday but would have joined with our sister seniors in raising a united cry for mercy and a penitent plea for abolishment. For what doth it profit a woman if she prevail through four years of higher education and suffer the failing of her comps? Speaking of school, a dud in conversation which we try to avoid as often as possible, there are some transitional undergraduates who are decidedly tense wondering about our 3-3-3 system for next year. Some how the more people say not to worry, the worrier things get. The well is deep, but the bucket dry, So till next time a fond good-bye. Muffin Sister Mary Marina, B.V.M., chemistry department chairman, will present a paper on Infra-red Studies of the Metal Complexes of D. L. Serine to the Illinois State Academy of Science, April 23, at Northern Illinois University. Sister's topic deals with one of the amino acids which form pro tein. The determination of the structure of complex molecules is important in understanding meta bolic action in the human body. Hold Kiddie Day The annual Alumnae Kiddie Day will be held Sunday, April 25, 2-4 p.m. The affair will give the alum nae a chance to renew college friendships and to introduce their children to the faculty. The 300 children who are ex pected to attend will be entertained by clowns, puppets, finger paint ing and games. Exhibit Art Senior art majors will open their exhibits with a reception May 2, 3-5 p.m., Gallery Eight. Sister Mary Robert Patrice, B.V.M., will exhibit in Gallery Four, while Phyllis Kozlowski and Cathy Mate- jovsky share Gallery Eight. All three shows are retrospective exhibits including drawings, prints, sculpture, ceramics, paintings and senior thesis projects. Examine Careers The chemistry department will sponsor a panel on Careers in Chemistry, April 8, 3:45 p.m., in 601. Ann Marie Wenthe '62 and Joan Gordon '64 will represent the re search phase of industry. Ann Ma rie is doing biochemical research at Abbott Pharmaceutical Labora tories. Joan is in biochemical re search at Children's Memorial Hos pital. Marilyn Bowen '60, a patent li brarian for Universal Oil, and Marge Siuda '62, a chemical librar ian at Universal Oil, will speak about opportunities for women in this field. The teaching of high school chemistry will be the subject of Alice Kretsehmer '64 and Mary Beth Harding '64. Announce Retreat Mundelein's open retreat will be gin at 4:30 p.m., Tuesday, April 13, and close in time for the 650 girls attending to take part in Holy Thursday services at their par ishes. The retreat masters are the Rev erend William P. Roberts, S.J., Marquette University, and the Reverend John Powell, S.J., the Bellarmine School of Theology, North Aurora, with a third priest to be announced. Soon after the retreat, students will be given an opportunity to evaluate the retreat and present ideas in an open buzz session to aid in next year's planning. This session will assist the newly or ganized Committee on Religious Activity. Sponsor Rally An SAC-sponsored civil rights rally was held March 25 in Mc Cormick Lounge for students and faculty unable to participate in Mundelein's trip to Selma. Mrs. Joseph Evans, member of the Fellowship of Reconciliation and mother of Mundelein sopho more Willie Evans, and Sister Mary Reynald, B.V.M., eighth grade teacher at St. Agatha's Grade School in Chicago and one of the first religious to participate in a southern march, spoke on their participation in recent civil rights demonstrations in Montgomery, Ala. After the discussion, Sister and Mrs. Evans led the participators in singing freedom songs. Plan Nominations Nominations for SAC offices will be held April 29, 12:40 p.m. in McCormick Lounge, and elections will take place May 3, 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the lounge.
