THE SKYSCRAPER Mundelein College 6363 Sheridan Rd., Chicago, 111., 60626 SI f AcrapinaS pina Now that it's almost summer, spring has finally decided to arrive. Perhaps the weather-maker has switched to a 3-3 system also: two terms of winter and one of spring. Actually it is amazing how a lit tle sunshine and some green leaves can change attitudes. All the deep and dark December negativism has been pretty well sunned away by now. This is of course the last issue before blue books a go-go so it would not be amiss to bid a tear- stained adieu to all the senior la dies about to step out into the giant world of the little people. It is assuredly a good thing that all the elections are finally over. It may well be that education should prepare for civic duty but, faced with one more ballot, it might be easier just to vote out democracy. One thing, no one can say the class elections weren't hotly con tested. Two and three vote mar gins aren't always the easiest way to win friends and influence people but it does show that people are interested. It seems Root Photography Stu dio is a little confused. The Ski* scraper received an invoice from Root addressed to Mr. Bill Sky scraper. Let it never be said that the Mundelein public relations staff doesn't know how to take full ad vantage of a good project. Case in point: Trouble with Angels. What bribery was used to con vince four girls to dress up in those chic black gym suits will never be revealed. Ah yes, and on the other side of life, there is nothing like the con stant smell of dead fish to clear the nostrils. It is interesting to note that there are a few changes in THE SYSTEM for next year. At least the time slots have been reap portioned. Actually, it's a very heartening thing that there aren't too many changes. When Coffey Hall was built, they used a giant bobby pin to break ground. Now, it's almost actually time to break ground for the much remarked Learning Resource Cen ter. Would you believe ... a giant paper clip? May Super Seminarian haunt you forever. Ginger Ale Alumna Defines Recent Foreign Nutrition Work by Marilyn Gibbs Mundelein alumna Noreen Con don spoke with home economics students, May 24, during a visit to the College. Miss Condon has just completed a two-year foreign assignment for the Great Plain Wheat Co. in India, Africa, Asia, Europe and South America. The nutritionist worked in cooperation with the U.S. De partment of Agriculture Abroad in setting up an equal-availability program for countries who wish to purchase wheat at their economic level. Sells Wheat Although it is called a give away program, this isn't the case, explained Miss Condon. The wheat is sold for the cur rency of each country. This money is then utilized in ambassadors' sal aries and on improvements that the U.S. makes within the particular country, she continued. In her discussion of varying con ditions, Miss Condon said she found the colonial African countries far more developed than the others of that continent. African countries must learn many hard lessons in reorganizing governments and the people conse quently suffer financial hardships, such as when Ghana went bank rupt two years ago. The nutritionist works with the latest research results to apply the supplemental diets in various areas. Respect Wisdom South American people have an old belief that the father in every family should be the best-fed be cause from his strength comes the welfare of the entire household. It follows the old Irish saying 'Dip the dip but save the herring for your father,' Miss Condon said. And, she added, nutri tionists are beginning to see the wisdom in this custom. Growth studies have slso proven on several occasions that food supplements need revision, Miss Condon emphasized, and should be made more applicable to the resources of every country. -Jsoehne Studio i wiihei to thank 11 land etc in t oil eye for the privilege of being selected the official photographer for the graduating cloit of 1967.
