mm-Seam 2? Food! For Free was the unanimous, ungrammatical, mental declaration of all the Seniors as they beamed over their invitations to the long-awaited Iunior-Senior get-together. The big question was, Will we live to attack American History with renewed vigor, or will we blissfully pass into the Great Beyond out of all contact with our beloved subject? All doubts faded as an awesome picture of gleaming, Hower-decked tables, en- livened by quaint favors, place cards and the most appetizing of viands filled our eyes and churned our tummies. Dinner was graciously served by the Mothers of our own P.T.A. Like contented kine, we pushed back our chairs from the banquet board after every edible object on it had disappeared, and sat in readiness for Father O'Boyle's enlivening talk. Having had the advantage of a whole month in the Land of Saints and little people, we knew he'd have some enlightening items. We were not disappointed. After God had been duly thanked for the preservation of our lives, the hospitable Iuniors ushered us into the auditorium for a peppy movie and then, we danced. Uust think, not one solitary dish to washlj Oh! and how we tripped to the melodies of this modern age! We fairly exuded joyousness and gaiety as we bade farewell to the Sisters and wended our way to the home nest, as well as we possibly could, upon the wake of such a sumptuous feast and hilarious evening. Thank you, Sister Madeleva and dear Juniors, for this delightful time. Youth had encountered a world of food to Win and had come up victorious. E653
