3115 Being new on the list of Garland real-estate purchases, 315 Com- monwealth Avenue made its new and grand appearance, along with its new house advisor Mrs. Messer, this past September. We soon discovered that we were the only freshman dormitory and living up to the standards we set for ourselves, we discovered that after mid- semester exams first term no one was on academic probation. We were one of only two houses with such a record. This was quite an achieve- ment, considering the fact that we spent the first two months of school with neither desks nor chairs. Our Sunday night suppers started off with a big bang, with a huge influx of attractive males. Conditions have remained this way since. We have had our share of blind dates, snowball fights, Saturday morn- ing breakfasts, and a great variety of maids - until our glorious Maybell arrived. Upon the arrival of spring, you will see a mass exodus of 315 girls parading to class in their newly-acquired dungaree skirts.

Although there are only two girls in the house who are members of Glee Club, with the help of Trintji on the guitar and Barbi on the piano the rest of the girls make a never-ending attempt. Poor Mrs. Reardon. Our Christmas season was launched with a carol- sing next door at Saint Patrickls Manor and enthusiastic knitting of sweaters for lucky boys, many of whom joined us later for a very successful dinner before the Christmas dance. Laughies! By then our decorations were in order and our twice-fallen tree was securely tied to prevent a third fall. Following Christmas, Barbi Bustian's engagement, Melonis week- end at Trinity as sweetheart of Theta Zi, Sheila's arrival from Colorado, as well as Randi's and Melonis triumphant honor roll standing high- lighted the dark winter months. One more song - There's a Whole Lot of Shakin, Going On. 54.
