Petey is a green parakeet who flew in to visit with Sister Mary- Anna Ruth of the music depart ment. He arrived via the 7th floor music department window. En chanted by bcr whistling, song-lov ing friend. Sister provided him with a hamster cage from the sci ence department and a music de partment baton for a perch. After the publication in the Tri bune of a picture of Petey, nearly SO phone calls flooded the switch board. The tumult resulted in a front page story in the Tribune on August 4. On August 5 its owners claimed Petey. identifying him by some red nail polish on his wing. Sodality Plans Marian Rosary The first general meeting of the Sodality of ( gt;ur Lady was held on Thursday.
