were supplied by Rita Conlon, who had a chicken farm in southern Illinois. Our happiness was complete when we heard the strains of a piano near-by. Asking who the gifted musician was, we were told that it was Mary Anita Gerber, she had just returned from Paris, and had fallen in love with the quaint restaurant, because it reminded her of the Latin Quarter where she studied. Thanking Patsy for the delicious meal, we began our travels anew. On the way to our next stop we purchased a paper, and there on the front page of the Graphic Section, in glorious color, was Mary Bourke, poised gracefully on her toes. Mary was appearing nightly at the Auditorium where she was Premiere Ballerina with the Ballet Irlande. Mary was wearing an exquisite costume and holding in her hand a tnulti-colored fan, made entirely of peacock feathers. The effect was beautiful beyond description. The caption underneath the picture explained that the fan was used through the courtesy of the Considine Company. Madame explained that Mary Considine was joint owner with Dolores Kowal of a peacock farm. supplying unique costumes and fans to all theatrical productions. Turning to the book reviews, we saw a report on the latest non-fiction best seller. The author, we dis- covered, was Shirley Prendergast, her literary efforts having resulted in a masterpiece entitled Genealogy of the Anthropologists of Pompeii. As we turned the page, we saw the announcement that the whole world had been waiting for. Jeanne Wogan, America's entry in the international tourna- ment at Brussels, had just been acclaimed ping-pong champion of the world. We were excited to be sure, and proud, too, but then there was no time to muse, so once again we were on our way-this time to the circus. As we crunched energetically on our peanuts, we noticed that one of'the inevitable three rings was being prepared for the arrival of another performer. Lions-loads of the growling specimens were being led into the circle. Then suddenly into that arena of horror came an unassuming little hgure, whom we recognized almost at once to be Margaret McNicholas. As she stood there fearlessly facing death, with the gleam of the conqueror in her eye, we felt that we could bear no more, and so we left without seeing the ghastly results. In From there tl1e Madame led us to a less prominent, though highly patronized spot. We noticed the formal lettering on the door, Finance Bureau-Economic Loans, and turned to Virginia with a questioning gaze. She would tell us nothing, however, and non- chalantly walked over to the counter to present her card. With little difficulty, we were admitted to the ofhces of those famed personages, Kay Mulligan and her assistants, Margaret Pendleton and Rita Scales. Kay described her work as fascinating, and offered her services to us, if we ever found ourselves at a loss, financially. Virginia hurried us into her waiting car, and in a very few minutes we were inside the doors of Radio Station YOU. As we stepped into the elevator, the operator turned toward us with a glance of recognition. Why, Rita XVisneski, we greeted her enthusiastically, but since we had all-important business to attend to, we left without the much-desired chat. We found the studio in an uproar. Rita Guinane-had promised to appear on a benefit program originating frotn that studio, between acts of her play, My Sister Inez. Fortunately, just before broadcasting time, Rita ap- peared. After the broadcast, she told us that she was departing from her usual roles to appear in a heavy drama, written by that playwright of the age, joan Evans, entitled Chlorine and Old Satin. On our way out, we stopped for a moment out- side a rehearsal room. There we discovered to our ex- treme pleasure, that sentimental lady who sings the blues, Elizabeth Neesen. Being absorbed in her art, she did not see us, and so we proceeded to tear our- .selves away once again. Turning to Virginia, we demanded, where to next. That lady gave instructions to her chauffeur, and soon we pulled up in front of the Palmolive Build- ing. In the revolving door we became tangled with a young lady on her way out. She proved to be Mary Clare Murphy, who astonished us with her announce- ment that she was a talent scout for Cecil B. DeMille. Since she was stationed temporarily in Chicago, Mary said she hoped to see us sometime soon. and so we took our leave. On the twentieth floor we found a suite of rooms engaged by the Good lVill To Good Neighbors group, a widely publicized organization which sends delegates to Central and South America. Among the fortunate promoters of good will this year was Peggy Howard. Peggy told us she enjoys hob-nobbing with diplomats and ambassadors, and matching wits with them. She also informed us that she had just been royally entertained by Ann 0'Reilly, who had married one of the Du Pont heirs and was living in the lap of luxury. Ann, she said, was having a difficult time adapting herself to the stiffness of society. Our next stop was a recently completed ice arena, where nightly, Mercedes Harrington appeared as a star of a spectacular ice revue. Next door to the arena was a fatnous laboratory. Stepping inside we found Mary Hergenrother, now a chemist, experimenting on a secret formula for the govertnnent. Since she was much engrossed in her work, we took our leave. From there we drove to a well-known Chicago university. There. looking highly intellectual before a college Latin class. we found Frances Roche. just at that time, Frances was caught in the throes of Cicero, so we slipped out as quietly as we had entered. The end of our day's travels was fast approaching, said Madame, but there was one more place that deserved our attention-that being Little Company of Mary Hospital. XVe reached our destination quicker than we thought possible, and at Virginia's request. directed our steps to Room 302. There we discovered Margaret Mary O'Ryan, her rootn bedecked with flowers, but she herself, willingly enough, autographing her latest best-seller. It seems that Margaret had taken the impossible on her shoulders and had overworked herself for the benefit of her public. She confessed that a rest cure was just what she needed, and was even more enjoyable since capable Rosemary Maroney was her private nurse. We regretted having missed seeing Rosemary. but asked to be remembered to her, and so departed once again-this last time to the airport. Stepping from a plane that had just landed, we saw petite Regina Brink in the charming garb of a stewardess. Laughingly, she told us she had realized her life-long ambition, and was very happy. She in- formed us that another Loretto Alumna was on the plane, and soon we spied Gertrude Fallon, who, be- tween meetings of the Loretto lVoodlawn Alumnae, of which she was president. had just returned from New York, where she attended a convention of lVomen's Clubs. At that moment a photographer set up his equipment and waited speculatively. We expected at least visiting royalty, but the stunning ladies who stepped out proved to be Rita Dunn and jean Quinn. Rita was now editor of the smartest and wittiest maga- zine on the news stand, Revue. jean had but re- cently accepted the office of the first woman president of the American Airlines Company. Night was upon us as we bade farewell to Madame Hughvani, wishing joy, good-fortune and peace to each and every one of the class of '4I. Page Forty seven
