VIETNAM GUEST IMPRESSED Clustered around Nau, our Vietnam guest, are Notre Dame seniors who took part in a week-long program for the 30 foreign students who spent a week in St. Louis in February as part of the New York Herald Tribune three month project to promote peace and understanding among peoples of all nations. Nau spent a portion of one day at Notre Dame attending classes with Senior Pat Janson who was Nau's hostess for the week. Nau's dominant impressions of Notre Dame were voiced with It's so clean here, and The girls don't even know me, but everyone speaks to meg they are so friendly. This picture was taken at a get together given in honor of Nau. Those pictured are: Kneeling: Little Mary Stuever, jean Laub, Margie Fulton. Sitting: Rosie Montgomery, Rosie Stumpf, Pam Fernandez, Nau, Little Pat Stuever, Pat Janson, Midge Kassebaum. Standing: Marilyn Devereaux, Judy Stuever, Rosie Tuhro, Janet McLaughlin.

For eighty-five of us Graduation bells have rung, but in memory we will re-live the peaceful joys of retreat, Rosary Day and Mary Day, the thrill of ring day and prom night, the enchantment of Desert Song, and even the intel- lectual energy afforded by the mountain of books we carried home each day.
