Sister Mary Alber- tona. udcramnad When Peter Cottontail comes bouncing down the Easter trail two weeks hence, he will have some trouble finding south-bound Mun- deleinites who will head for Flor ida come vacation time. Seeking sun on the beaches of Miami and Ft. Lauderdale he will find Mary Alice Winn, Marilyn Clark, Catherine Keane, Geraldine Rebhan, Jeanne Brish, Carol Bar- vitz, Celeste McGlynn, and Susan Ricketts. ()tber Florida-bound collegians are Marv Ann Lashmet, Frances Reil y, Sheila Enright, Mary Ann Carroll, Virginia Allison, Char lotte Dohr, Mary Apel, Patricia and Mary Ann Grimes, Carol Mai- er, Dorothy Monohan, Patricia Stella, Betty Kelly, Joanne Boehm, and Alice Dixon. House guests of Geraldine Gross in Coral Gables will be Nan Voss, Leora Bruch, and Nancy Mammo- ser. Peter will find many girls at home, and should bring congratu lations to Norma Indovina, who will appear in the court of honor at the Illinois Institute of Tech nology prom. Joan Heath will have some infor mation for her bunny friend about weather conditions in Iron Moun tain. Michigan, where she enjoyed the Ski Jump tournament. Mary Ellen O'Mara and Rose mary Thornton will report on tem perature and sunshine in Atchison, Kansas, and Waterloo, Iowa. Tf Mr. Cottontail is a music lov er, Marie Kobielus will describe for him her impression of the Kungsholm Miniature opera per formance of La Boheme which she attended recently. Though spring is officially here, Marilyn Baer can report on winter as it appeared at the Ice Show. We're hoping Peter will bring gifts for a few who remain at Chi cago's gates for Easter. Barbara Gibson has set her heart on a palo mino horse, and Mary Patricia Curran pines for a yacht. Jean Kielty will save him a shop ping trip and settle for a million dollars, but Kathleen McLean would rather receive a car com plete with chauffeur, for commut ing to and from school. Mary Ellen Kane won't mind staying in Chicago if Mr. Rabbit manages to bring her an outdoor swimming pool with a heating unit. Neither will Shirley Basse mind facing the 80-mile-an-hour winds if she can do it in a full length mink coat. Barbara Gaul's gift would be easy to carry a diamond-studded cigarette case and Ann Storino craves a voice scholarship to La Scala in Milano. Loretta Casey will take a type writer with a special key which erases all her errors, and Nancy Westphal will be happy with a trip around the world. Les D'Arciennes Offer Stations In French Meditating in French, students in French classes will offer the Sta tions of the Cross in the College Chapel during Holy Week. Primary importance will be placed on the essential meaning of each Station, rather than on the formal prayers. Agnes Blanc, Ph.D., of the French department, is sponsoring the proj ect, recalling for the students the devotion as practiced by Canadians. Dr. Blanc has studied and taught at Laval university in Quebec.
