Mary Stallkamp After long evenings of fun and hard work under the patient direction of Sister Mary Charles, the cast prepared itself to bring out the gentle satire, the class snohlzery, and the delicate romance of Helen lerome's drumatization of a'Pride and Prejudicew. Then the opening night arrived. Backstage the actors and actresses ruslled about in their gay. colorful, 19th-century costumesg artists busied themselves in greasepaints and eyebrow pencils, while other members of the production staff took a second look upon the stage-setting. Below the foot- lights the orchestra announced the grand openingg the audience scanned their programs in eager anticipationg and as the lights began to dim, the ushers closed the doors and quietly took their seats. Then the curtain rose for the glittering, but delicate satire, Pride and Prejudice . 79

Vile tried our skill at folk dancing and then relaxed with assortments of pastry and sandwiches. Our retreat was conducted by Father .lohn M. Flick, C.SS.R., whose conferences on confession and com- munion drew the girls to attend Mass in spite of very icy weather. On Book Night members of Green Quill gave us Ll chance to become acquainted with the best in current literature. The hook reviews were written in interesting styles and l.he speakers were excellent. The Forum this year had as speakers-Father Joseph O'Callal1an, SJ., hero chaplain of the :'Franklin'7 during World War ll, who spoke on 'The Quality of Leadership g Mr. J. L. Benvenisti, a speaker from Eng- land whose topic was Wllhe Marshall Plan as Europe Sees Itwg and Father John F. Cronin, SS., labor au- thority, who spoke on 'LLalJor in the Post-Vifar Vlforldn.
