0p17ubnsi0f Tile ,Voun e f. .. Constance Durliat, hlargaret Powers and Eleanor Hernaiki like all their freshman classmates, but agree with Lo- retta Doran and Carol Kenny that the sophomores try to appear too sophisti- cated. We are glad to hear from Jacqueline Gifford that among the sen- iors there is a spirit of big-sisterly kind- ness. Niary Theresa Nlyers thought her first day at Ursuline the most bewilder- ing she had ever experienced, and Jean Sheean couldn't get over how BIG the building was. My favorite teacher the first day, said Theresa lVIartin, was Sister M. Blanchen. Jean Eiben thought the nicest room in S. U. A. was 113. I liked the library best, said Agnes Kie- fer. When asked what class she liked best that first day, Pat Palmer pl'0I11pflY answered 'fStudy periodn. 'fThat first meal in the teahouse nearly finished me, said Pat Schoen, but how I like the JAMX' HDO you like the uni- forms Pl' Rosalyn Grothjan asked Arlene Welch. I surely do! Rita Shondell and Barbara Czarnecki both think the chapel very devotional, Pat Brunner still feels lost in the BIG! BIG auditorium. Speaking of the audi- torium, Rose Marie Cassidy thinks the best program held this year was the one given by Brother Schuster. Again, speaking of the auditorium, Beverly Ja- cob says the religion in there is so much harder than that held in the home room. It comes as a surprise from Jean Hat- field and Rosemary Gouttiere that they feel overburdened with homework. We will all look twice at Virginia Beving- ton and Rose- Nlarie Daunhauer since . . . they remarked the first day that they just HATED to wear long silk stockings. It doesn't seem possible that Betty Gerken thinks f'gym is silly, and that Patricia hiattson thought Freshman Day was 'ftoo easy . Gladys Smith and Diary Catherine Flanagan are simply terrified over the coming exams, but Marie Claire Pallinger said there are other things to be terrified over, such as a Hbawling out for wearing a too short uniform or dropping things in Home Ec. department, as Nancy Na- varre did. To end this survey pleasantly and harmoniously, le-t us quote Dolores Paz- kiak and hlary Calaway, who say: f'St. Ursula's orchestra is the best in Toledo -and that ends Freshman opinions! lf? a fact... That a new type of anti-freeze made from a petroleum rather than an alcohol base and containing no essential war materials is now on the market. That cats' eyes do not shine-they merely reflect the faint light of dark places. That the proper length for a lady's skirt is about two feet above the dirt. That comparing himself to a wealthy friend, the celebrated pianist, Pader- ewski, once said: 'fHe is a dear soul who plays polo. I am a poor Pole who plays solo. That oil was discovered in the United States by the Franciscan, joseph de la Roche, in 1627. That Pope Clement XII C1730- 174OQ became blind shortly after elec- tion. That out of every seven pupils who enter high school, four drop out before completing their course. That three-fourths of our population have at least two colds a year. That the artist works like all the rest, but the thing he likes to draw the best is his salary. That music is the only language in which you cannot say a mean, sarcastic thing. THE SCROLL 19
