HAPPY EASTER floor have completed their roles in the advance nutrition class' proj ect to measure the protein effi ciency ratio of three separate diets. The project, decided upon and con ducted by the members of the class, determined the growth value for the rats eating enriched white, whole wheat and oatmeal breads. Each bread contained a six per cent non-fat dry milk content, two per cent higher than the average commercial bread. RECENTLY, HIGH PROTEIN BREADS deriving protein from an ad dition of lysine, a building stone in protein, have been put on the market. However, Sister Mary Renee, super visor of the nutrition experiment, warned that this product, if added to many of our foods, could produce an imbalance which might cause ill ef fects. The purpose of the project was to show that an increase in milk con tent could raise the protein value without the dangers caused by added lysine. The Sprague-Dawley strain rats, named Anthony, Cleopatra, Romeo, Juliet, Wanda and Bud, all passed their tests well. The ratio between the weight increase and the food eaten during the five weeks they spent here will determine the diet's protein efficiency ratio. Since Wanda had been sick for a while, the results will probably be based on the weights of the males only. As of last week, the oatmeal bread diet added greater weight to the rats. The whole wheat diet was second and the white enriched bread last. The amount of milk an all other ingredi ents in the breads were kept constant and the rats all received equal quan tities of carrots, lettuce and water. The young cadavers will be used in the biology lab. Badminton Tourney Awaits Champion A first-place trophy will go to the winner of the Mundelein All-School Badminton Tournament which com menced April 6.

Questionnaire Proves Point Wise Fools Are Not Apathetic Of National and International News Sophomores cannot be accused of apathy concerning international af fairs, proves a pole of 157 sopho mores. Sponsored by a sophomore YCS group, this survey shows that Mundelein students are definitely in terested in the world about them. Although 75 of those queried said they read the editorial page of the daily newspaper, one out of three admit they receive their knowledge of news in a nutshell by reading a weekly magazine. Sixty students who read the edi torial page, a weekly magazine, or both, are also engaged in discussions Birdies Fly over Courts As Badminton Games Start Like badminton? Thirty-one schools from northern Illinois have been in vited to participate in the Second An nual Badminton Tournament at Mun delein, Saturday, April 30, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. THE TOURNEY offers singles and doubles competition. Mundelein first introduced this type of tournament in the Chicago area for women's colleges last year. Seven courts will carry the action: three at Mundelein and four at the courtesy of Loyola University. The program has been arranged so that the girls will play oppon ents from other schools. By rank ing their players according to ability, the schools assure chal lenging opposition. Rosary, Barat, Loyola, Lake Forest, Wright Junior, North Park, Navy Pier, University of Chicago, National College of Education and Concordia are expected to take part, according to WAA president Irene Lizak. IRENE REGARDS THE EVENT as the one time Mundelein girls get to cavort about in bermudas. She ex plained that there are no prizes. It's just for the fun of it. The WAA officers ask that all in terested in participating sign up on the gym bulletin board as soon as pos sible. One dollar for lunch is the only charge for the day. Miss Sullivan, gym instructor, will hostess the play- day. Sk u5crapina6 THIS MAY SEEM LIKE OLD HAT TO YOU, but your Auntie's been so steamed since it happened that she hasn't been able to see a thing through all the fog on her bifocals. The tearoom struck a blow to all real Irishmen when it had nerve to serve ORANGE sherbet on St. Patrick's Day. Ann Moran also disgraced her people when she had ENGLISH MUFFINS for dessert. I'll bet the dear Saint wept bitter tears. . . . Sharon Ruppert was the victim of a hit and run accident recently. Her leg was badly bruised, and Sharon may have to go through life with the imprint of a 24-inch bicycle tire on it. The pattern is really lovely, and Sharon will let you study it at close range for a small fee. . . . Jackie Dempsey says that conditions are quite crowded over at Philomena Hall these days. Last week things were so bad that she had to do all her typing in a white tiled room. The only thing she objected to was the echo. . . . Defini tion of a sin of omission: A sin we should have committed but didn't. . . . The Floating Newsmonger and Busybody Association thinks that the song We Got Trouble Right Here in River City ought to be dedicated to Sue McCall. Ask her to tell you about it. TEE HEE. . . .

Of these, 55 per cent agreed that their friends were also aware of news at home and abroad. The majority from this group believe that social acceptance depends on one's knowledge of na tional and international news. UNFORTUNATELY THE QUES TIONNAIRE reveals a few contradic tions on the part of Mundelein's wise fools. Although one out of seven sopho mores reads the editorial page and a weekly magazine, she does not share her knowledge with others through discussion. Placing the blame on their friends' lack of interest in current events, this group paradoxically agreed that knowledge of national and international affairs is an asset for so cial acceptance into most groups. Five students reported they are often engaged in discussion of current events even though they do not read the editorial page or a weekly magazine. One even admitted that her friends are not aware of current events but she still participates in discussion groups. It was discovered that most students became interested in world affairs at the age of 16 or 17. However, one became interested at the age of yes and another gave a promise of in the future. AS A MEANS OF COMMUNICA TION, television is also a promoter of world news. At Random headed the list of TV programs as hailed by 99 girls. Twentieth Century, Meet the Press, and Face the Nation were also favorites. Students Favor One Attraction Voting on Thursday, March 31, showed that 266 girls favored a policy of three performances of the same at traction as the annual benefit. In second place with 179 votes was a student donation day. Third and fourth places were held respectively by a one-night performance at Orchestra Hall 32 votes, and three single- night performances of various attrac tions at Mundelein 30 votes. Proceeds from the 1960-61 Benefit will help to furnish the student smoker and lounge in the new building. Chemistry Prize Won by Freshman Senior chemistry majors aren't alone in collecting awards.
