That'll teach him to bet on the horses, especially one named Mundelein . . . Barbara Schneider is NOT going to Peru this summer. She says she has . much better things to do . . . Maricolette Powers has been scanning every paper to see whether she has been listed among the engaged. The news was held this long so that she could relive the thrill of it all over again. Psychology, you know . . . Now for the stork's visits to Mundelein. Mr. McGuinness' back ground in literature has rubbed off on his new little girl, and she's only five weeks old. Her real name is Ann Elizabeth, but Daddy calls her Analyze. Poor kid . . . Mrs. Krek teaches Russian, and she really practices what she . preaches. She taught until Friday and Lidja Ta Tjana arrived the following Monday . . . The Class of 1982 will have a charming member, Mrs. Schmidt's daughter, Kathy . . .One of the fraternities at Loyola tells a story about one of their houses in California. It seems that there was a fire one night when only one of the brothers was in the place. He ran to the kitchen which was the scene of the conflagration, grabbed a pan, and began pouring water on the fire. After the house had burned to the ground, it was discovered that in his excitement he had chosen a sieve for fire fighting purposes . . . Students in Sister Jean Michael's class were assigned a paper on the problem of evil in the world.

When her question met with silence, she stated in her inimitable fash ion, That's what I like about teaching philosophy. One course always carries over into another. Sister Mary Sharon's rhetoric class has been experimenting with a Japanese form of poetry called a Haiku. Sharon Schnell came up with this example. An Ant Hill Diligent and strong, Ambitious ants build hill homes. One small step . . . too bad. . . . The volunteer dance at Hines Hospital a while ago was a bit short of volun teers, so Helen Berg made sure there were plenty of them for the dance May 10. She ought to know by now that you just can't win. The bus driver never showed up . . . And now as your dear old Auntie graduates cum diploma, she and the rest of the madcap seniors would like to leave you with this small reassuring thought: We know all the answers; we just don't understand the questions PUZZLE Across 4.
