V xl wt' ,-Xt' 'Y The whirl of Freshman lYelcome Week greeted us as we arrived at Saint Marys September 8 to embark upon our college career. Meetings with t'big sisters and roommates, the struggle of registration, tests abounding. the faculty-student tea, big sister parties. the N.D.-Saint Mary's picniciall these contributed to the con- fusion of those first few days. We felt we became officially part of our college on Madonna Night, when the juniors present- ed us with lovely statues of the Blessed Virgin and received us into the Mary's family. We tried to express our thanks for the many kindnesses of helpful big sisters with a gala night-before-Halloween party in the clubhouse, which --club 51 gave for the juniors. Our gratitude also goes to our class sponsors, Sister Maria Renata the first semester, and Sister M. Amadeus the second, for their friendly aid. - J .75 .Fiji V' res l1t1el81tl fr fxxw X,-0, - YC 7 brink, Mary Elizabeth Weber, ON BENCH: Barbara McClure, 'W ON GROUND: Bette Schilling, Mary Frances Bloemer, Joan ' Pfeiffer K Helen Gill, Kathryn Luman, Patricia Kelly, Kathleen O'tConnor, Theresa Benoit, Rose- mary Stapleton, Nancy Wedeineyer, Jeanne Bukolt, Mary Bukolt STANDING: Jean LaMair, Vir- ginia Vallee, Mary Lou Willen- Joan Padgett, Patricia Miller.
