The inside advice and forewarnings which she receives from her friends, and her evaluation of their counsel, constitutes the theme of the play. Included in the cast with Marilyn Lyons, who plays Amanda, are JoAnn Macko, Jean Tennes, Ruie Flook, Winifred Owens, and Anita Nelson. . . . Home Economics majors Mary Rose Allen, Dana Parducci, and Virginia Sokley survey three baskets of food, bought in different areas of the city all at varying prices. 3cra, pinas When April showers may come your way . . . they bring the warmth of spring ... the morning song of the birds . . and the fragrance of the evening . . . They bring the flowers that bloom in May . . . and maps, travelogues, and (anxious plans to European-bound stu dents Lillian Papacostas, Agnes Rei ter, and Margaret Gaynor, who plan to spend the summer getting first hand hews of our neighbors across the seas. And when its raining, have no re grets, because it isn't raining rain, you know, its raining violets . . . and roses . and orchids . . . enough and more for les belles dames at the many St. Patrick's day parties. Sham rocks were in bloom at the Pi Alpha Lambda party. Attending were Kay Lamb, Joan Hoiss, Mary Reidy, Anne Llewellyn, Frances Reilly, Mary Jane Murphy, Mary Clare Bowman, Nor een Ryan, Rosemary Boscamp, Peggy Winslow, Mary Ellen Mullaney, Nancy Gibbons, Marilyn Tangney, Peggy Grandy, and Kathryn Winn. The time was the same, as was the (occasion. It was the place that dif fered. While Janet Parmelee and Joan Carr danced at Phi Kappa Alpha's party, Mary Lou Pisani, and Edwina Kostanski were at Phi Beta Phi's dance. Green was the thing at the Alpha Delta Lambda March 17 party, and fcou can be sure Loretta Gibbons, Peg- jy Liston, Yolanda Volini, Jean Mc- Cormick, Patricia O'Shea, Virginia Casey, Nancy Karls, Susan Anderson, Marilyn Fitzpatrick, Mary Patricia Murphy, and Arlene Bartlett were wav ing their colors. And when you see clouds upon the q hill . . . they will mean nothing at all to Joy Fanelli, Dolores Byrnes, Bar bara Bidwell, Sandra Vertenten, Cath- ruI erine Madden, and Frances O'Donnell, j, ho expect to see nothing but sunshine s , duriiii their southland visit to Flor- : ida over the Faster holidays. lie You soon will see crowds of daffo- gt;se lils . . . but not so big nor as pretty as. the crowds Gloria Valentine hopes lo see in New York's Easter parade long famed Fifth Avenue. So keep on looking for a blue bird lid listening for his song . . . Betty Vi in tit- or ikt re M )Ni ean Murphy isn't sure about the blue lird, but she is sure that Rosalind Rus- ell gives a fine performance in the at urrent Bell, Book, and Candle. Whenever April showers come along I. . it means that May is right ahead I . and bells begin to ring, like those tegiaa McNamara is hearing. A Sen- Dr Economics major, Miss McNamara ecently became engaged to Patrick i -.. lagney, graduate of Northwestern diversity and at present a law stu- atlf ent at Loyola. Another recent en- ;i igee is senior English major Dolores jJonahue, who is wearing a ring giv- w to her by John Hayes. Ea dr ient Penny-wise Homemakers Compare, Decide, Then Buy How wise a shopper are you? Do you always buy at a chain store, because prices are supposed to be lower there ? Do you realize that prices in one part of the city could be radically different from prices in other parts of the same city? Can you spot a food bargain when you see one? These are a few of the problems which the Meal Planning class of the Home Economics department set out to solve. To do this, they first determined what the food needs of a family of six would be. and then made a survey of prices of needed foods at chain and independent stores in the Chicago area. Mary Jansen surveyed grocers on the west side of the city, while Ellen Cag- ney, Constance Hoenig, Gloria Kowal eski, Barbara Schwenk, Mary Siffer- iiiann, and Virginia Sokley scoured the north section. Frances Butler, Sheila Corcoran, Mar ion Farrell, and Marianne Garofalo noted south-side prices, along with Phyllis Guz, Jean O'Donnell, Dana Par ducci, Collette Carey, and Joan Kas- meja. One surprising result shows that shop ping at a nortwest side independent store saved 7.84 per day or 407.68 in a year, while the same items bought from a south side independent grocer cost 6.73 more per day, or 349.96 more per year. The shoppers conclude that the alert homemaker may do much to cut food costs by comparing prices at her local chain and independent stores and by buy ing accordingly. Library Introduces Art Exhibits A pleasant mixture of rose, green, and yellow against a walnut panel awaits the viewer on the second floor of the library. This color combination is in the form of an oil painting by Junior Loretta Neff. It is the first item of a permanent exhibit of one Art department work each month which the library intends to spon sor both to decorate the library and to acquaint others with student talent. Miss Neff's painting, Evening at Gun Sight Trail, was painted from memory after she visited Glacier National park. It depicts the rose-lilac mountains and a yellow trail with a desolate pine tree cut ting across the foreground of the picture.

Another one-act play will be pre sented by the Drama department in the Little Theatre April 17, at 4 p.m. Titled The Magic Mirror, the play, a fantasy, uses no curtain between acts, and makes much use of the property man who is visible at all times. Also under Mrs. Phelps' supervision, the play will be directed by Junior Barbara Prohaska. Her cast includes Miss Macko, Kay Lamb, Anna Sci- meca, Joy Kilbanc, Joan Ovcrholt, and Alice Dixon.
