CLASS HISTORY Yes, group, our history is a full one. The memories are C0l1r1tleSS-S0 mlleh more than mere Credit hours, Certificates, and degrees. And they're such crazy, funny little things . . . like that awful, lost feeling during the first week away from the family. We felt like writing five letters home each day. But then personalities and friendships began to emergeg and finding that our own entertainment assets were not at all below par, we applauded the members of our own class-Ginger, Jose, Buh, Ginny, Eileen, Mudge, and Kathy. The best babies of the class were Til, Ruth Saul, and Eileen Dougherty, while as first lady of '52, we elected NHHCY. With mixed emotions we attended the first tea dance. Result? Yes, there was a Villanova rush, and just about everyone went to their Soph COtil1i0r1- And then there fOllOWed our Hallo' we'en Party and It's Only Anne Madden in a Gilded Cage . . . the thrill of a transformed gym at South of Nowhere . . . K.T.B.'s poetic gems , , , the cigarettefbridgefargyle mode of existence. We Went home happily at Christmas time, and Sally Peabody returned with an engage- ment ring. Our Retreat with Monsignor Sheen was a truly memorable experience. Contrary to ex' pectations, life actually did go on after semester eXamS, and We remember Tishafs engagement , , , Our Lady of Fatima . . . badminton in between times . . . Nancy in Cyrano . . . the demise of our tree . . . the excitement of Sally's wedding by proxy. June-and we reflected that Rosemont life was the tops, and the next three years promised to be really wonderful. We anticipated eagerly all that they would bring. Well, the Charleston was unexpectedg but we did catch on, and enjoyed Sophomore year in true flapper style. Tea House roots strengthened, but so did a growing responsibility and an awakened interest in activities. We gasped at the panorama of History of Civ, and shuddered at the thought of Logic, but felt truly destined as we chose our first major courses. St. Joseph's and Georgetown were on the horizon . . . our girls joined facobowsky . . . Vilf lanova serenaded at three A. M. There were fabulous parties over CarbinefWay . . . bouillon cubes and pipes at the T . . . a wonderful Mission Bazaar featuring -Patsy Borneo Bolich . . . gym suits on the highway . . . Reverie Parisienne. Christmas brought a much needed respite and a multitude of parties. With the new year came Retreat with Fr. Donaghy . . . Platonic idealism that was all too real . . . Onawa as a byword . . . a mass exodus to New York on the 17th ffirst time for Kevin O'Rothenheber!J. Spring was in the air and the flappers gathered in Connelly kitchen . . . we all helped Kathy with our own 23 Skidoo . . . Ann Claire gave an Ocean City party . . . we attended A Midsummer Nights Dream . . . Lindy received a long birthday gift . . . we changed our tassels at Commencement and be' came juniors. So much news in September! Our numbers were noticeably lessened-Ruth was a Notre Dame postulantg Leila was a Mrs., and so were Gloria Sanginiti and Isabelle O'Sullivan. Holy Year pilgrims had unforgettable experiences. We entertained our little sisters, and waxed eloquent over life at college. Rosemont said a sad goodfbye to Fr. Sullivan, and welcomed Fr. Falvey. English ma' jors talked of Sepulchre Plays, and History majors of supply and demand-at least they tried t0 We went rustic at Harvest Hoedown, and turned musical for the interclass hockey game. EmbfY0 teachers probed educational philosophies, and everyone looked into the matter of Evolution fOr Fr. Campbell. We felt like Cinderellas at Magic till Midnight. . Such were the events of our history. Perhaps it sounds helterfskelter when compressed like this on paper. True, it was fast moving and exciting, but deeper changes were taking place more
