l-low vividly we all recall the many links which day hy day we forged into our chain of memories . . . There was that eventful Septem- her 25, 1941 when all the joy of anticipation seemed to vanish into thin air when you .YI.fjllt'lf on the dollcd line and sealed your fate for four long years. You were too excited to he home- sick that day even though your heart did give a little twinge when the family drove away. liven that first night away from home wasn't too had. There was your room-mate with whom you shyly exchanged those precious first impressions. And your Big Sisters came to hid you a cheery Good night l after the party in the Campy. The next day those of you who were commuters were surprised to note that the-pretty girl who sat next to you on the suh- way was also sitting next to you during your first ride to lnnnaculata in lflus 2. The first link in our chain of unity was forgediwhen, with the gracious welcome of Doctor .linrey and Sister Cosnias, we--one hundred two as- piring candidates--liecame the Class of '45 . . .

Your president, Mary Rei- ley, hecame the third in a series of red-haired class presidents. Realizing that you were to he the Silver 'luhilee class, you chose the colors of the first graduating class, maroon and gold. and for your motto, .Sllll'.Ylflll Cm'da! livents followed in rapid succession: Room Opening, with its emphasis on hed spreads. drapes, and feminine nick-nacks to give that personalized appearance.

The only re- quisite for success, you were told, was a willing spirit and a talent to do anything. any time, any where. lint you could see the smiles hehind those soher Sophomore faces, smiles which huhhled over into laughter at the party they gave us on the last night. Do you rememher, too, when -linny 'Iacohy and llelene llrown woke nearly the whole school with their screams at the midnight appearance of those unidentified pranksters dressed as nuns? l-lal- lowe'en was celehrated at the Alumnae llall in the Rellevue. lt was all that you had dreamed of that first formal dance at college, hut how could it have heen otherwise with the nmsie of Russ Morgan to dance to? ln Novemher the Confraternity of Christian Doctrine met in l'hiladelphia and even we lfreslnnen were allowed to take a prominent ..... .... -- ..... ! ..... -.. f...
