A FRESHMAN IS eagerness, anticipation, enthusiasm in one sometimes untidy bundle . . . she has come and seen — but lost all hope of conquering . . . her days as a big wheel seem gone beyond recall. . . . Seeks solace from loneliness in the bedlam of the D. L. or the quietness of the Cliff Walk ... is an attitude un- tainted by cynicism ... a perspective unblurred by false illusion ... a heart responsive to the call of affection and the bonds of friendship. . . . A freshman tries to conceal her pride as a collegian . . . wonders why her former crowd just doesn ' t understand her anymore . . . Sees the world as one tremendous challenge . . . her junior sister as God ' s gift to her freshman year . . . and her class- mates as simply the Greatest . . . What can be distracting Barbie O ' Gara ' s attention from her neighbors ' animated discussion? Marilyn Soucy, Sandy Delehanty, Dale Howell, and Helgi Danjczek seem to be engaged in quite an interesting conversation. Oblivious to the other parts of the group, Kathy Lisi listens intently to a fascinating story told by Yvonne Abdo. Hi there! from freshmen: Connie Scorpio, Maureen Murphy, Debby South, Pat Murphy, Cathy Almeida, Florence Rose, Dolores Krapp, Pat Smith, Mary Jane Traficante, Anne Horan, Mary Ann Flannery, Barbara McAlear, Doro- thy Mahler, Eileen Farrelly, Kay McCaffrey.
