Page Four THE SKYSCRAPER January 17,1962 Si V dcrapinqi. pinfi Now ladies, for our annual post- Christmas report from ROCK- burgh, USA (known during the off season as that splendid institution of higher learning Mundelein College). The following returned to us suffering from an amazing dexterity of the left hand, born of manipulating with that limb to the almost total exclusion of the other. Also noticed is a strange little movement of the third finger (which is causing some concern, on sunny days, in classrooms with East and West window exposure). Jhe refraction is smashing. Bride Marge Barry Rappe will join Wally in El Paso, Texas, at the end of the semester. She's planning a little vacation trip to Chicago in March (to take comps) and will return to El Paso to teach. Lois Maday Sullivan, wed in a snowstorm Jan. 6, spent the follow ing Tuesday in the library working on a term paper. Engaged: Juliane Benedict and Erich Der- ren planning an Aug. 11 wedding. Anne Boehmer and Bob Dough erty engaged Dec. 7. Linnea Bolin and Bob Romano. Denyse Columbo and Dan Mar- cinek engaged on New Year's Eve, her parents' anniversary. Peggy Corse and Tom Murrihy from Ireland post-graduation wedding and a honeymoon on the Old Sod. Carole De Coster and Dave Man ning June 16 wedding. Mary Ennis and Ralph Kern Sept. 1 wedding.

Merrily Smith and Tom (Buzzy) O'Connor, teacher and freshman basketball coach at Loyola Acad emy. Merrily got a taste of what it will be like, when Buz left their engagement party for a few hours his team had a game that night. An Aug. 4 wedding for them. Sylvia Stadtherr and Jerry De Chant engaged just before mid night Mass. Pat Vincent and Dick Maxwell found her ring in a Christmas stocking after a nut and a winter- green. She chased him till he caught her. .InAnn Mulloy was going to take a classified ad in the Skyscraper to thank whoever put the sandwich in her locker she was starving. She decided to spend the money on lunch instead. Maureen Quane, Jay Swanson and Rosaria Colletti will be among the Loyola University group leav ing Feb. 21 to spend the spring semester studying in Rome. After the end of the semester they will spend 12 days touring Europe be fore returning home. How is the CTA these days Barb Vitullo. Seems Barb left her car with her sister and took a bus, but she was sitting in a draft and her feet got cold, so she got off and took a cab the rest of the way home Could it be that the new dorm will be finished before the parking lot ? ? ? ? A student in the editing class asked to identify sansserif type re plied that it was Sanskrit. Comment overheard in the smoker A 1,500 juke box has done what 1,200 girls couldn't do get some boys into the smoker. Faculty Keeps Busy GETTING IN THE SPIRIT OF THINGS for the Ski Weekend sponsored by the WAA by working on a snowman are Leona Poliquit and Mary Halper while Kay Knipp prepares to make her own snowomen. Active Weekend Planned; Includes Skiing, Skating Forty-seven snow enthusiasts are winter weekend bound for George Williams College Camp at Williams Bay, Wis., Jan. 26, 27 and 28. The annual outing, sponsored by the WAA, will depart by bus Fri day at 4:30 p.m. The group ex pects to arrive at their destination around 7:30 p.m., after stopping for dinner at Lake Geneva. Recreation begins with a Friday evening movie and carries into Sat urday's heavily scheduled sporting activities which include skiing, skating and a trip to a local ob servatory. Three various sized ski slopes at Majestic Hill will attract beginner, intermediate and more advanced skiers. For those who prefer their activity sitting down, tcbagganing and sledding are offered. A Saturday evening sing along will conclude the day's activities. Organizing the event are WAA Students Play Mom; Help at Orphanage The Right Reverend Monsignor Vincent Cook, Archdiocesan direc tor of Catholic Charities, believes that every woman should give of herself, and 51 Mundelein students agree with him. These are the girls who volunteer one night's work a week to Angel Guardian Orphanage. The girls' duties include bathing the 2-5 year olds and entertaining them from 6 to 7:30 p.m. Volun teers also help in the library and read and play games with the chil dren in the infirmary. The orphanage is staffed by 58 sisters, 4 priests and 3 lay teachers. Lay Leaders Meet The Christophers, a lay group dedicated to the restoration of Christian principles, will sponsor an adult education course, the Ga briel Richard Leadership Confer ence at Mundelein. The classes, beginning Jan. 17, will meet on Wednesday evenings at 7 for nine weeks in the Phoenix Room. The course is designed to help Catholic lay leaders to perfect the techniques necessary for effectively influencing others or communicat ing with them. The fee for the classes open to adults is 10. president Mary Lou Geist and chairman Kay Knipp. Miss Judith Scott and Miss Au drey Sullivan, physical education instructors will accompany the girls.

Takes Plaque Third semester fencing cham pion, Barbara Loescher '63 took third place at an Open Women's Meet in Hinsdale, 111., Jan. 6. Competing against 11 other girls, Barbara, a member of the Amateur Fencing League in America was awarded a bronze plaque for her performance. Barbara won first place in a nov ice meet, Dec. 17 receiving a gold medal for her victory over seven competitors. Winning the last meet makes Barbara ineligible for both the nov ice and prep meets. Her possi bilities are in competing in the Divisional (state) championships and from there, if she wins, in the Midwest Tourney. These games clear the way for entrance in the national which eliminates only those ready for the international. In spite of frosty weather, fac ulty members attend meetings and speeches during January and Feb ruary. Sister Mary Margaret Irene, B. V. M., education department chairman, represented Mundelein Sounding Board ( Continued from Page 2) However, we have observed that most commuter colleges have a daily Mass. For example, DePaul has a daily 12:30 Mass, Rosary has a daily 11 a.m. Mass, St. Xavier has a daily 11:30 Mass and Loyola has both an 11:30 and a 12:30 Mass (both of which require that a Mun delein student have two periods free in order to attend and receive communion). More impressive and confusing to us is the fact that the University of Illinois has a noon Mass which is a dialogue during the week and sung on Sunday, and Northwestern has an 1 o'clock Mass daily. Again may we say we are aware of the difficulties involved. How ever, we are convinced that daily Mass is vital to the spiritual growth of the students here at Mundelein. In the past, student ef forts alone have been unsucessful. We sincerely hope that some ar rangements will be made in the near future which will be both spir itually satisfying and materially practical. 450 Signatures Dear Editor, We were always of the opinion that fads were for unthinking ado lescents; we are sorry to say that it is now evident that college women also suffer from high school fad mania. The mass mob bing of the smoker by twisters has set our college in an upheaval. One girl in 100 can do it as a dance, many of the others look highly suggestive, the others purely ridiculous. We think it's time that the smoker be open for smoking smokers and bridge players. They're carrying this thing to extremes. Once the hal lowed halls were filled with femi nine chatter, now all you hear is Hit the Road Jack. Now's the time to clear the dance floor and act like adult Christian women. Karen Doody '64 Connie Pearson '64 Ruth Fazioli '64 Dear Editor, It was once said that girls went to Mundelein for a husband. But that is no longer the case. I can vouch for that; for a man would not go into the smoker for a date, let alone a wife. One look at the ridiculous, asinine, senseless, purposeless dance would discourage any fel low who wanted a well-bred col lege girl from asking one of the sensual twisters for a date. Paul lien all' s - BULLETIN Due to the limited amount of participation and cooperation of students, free swims on Thurs day afternoons will be cancelled, according to Mrs. Leo Gorski.
