*?****????? ????? By Elaine Hilbert This blonde-haired, green-eyed lass has grown up quite a bit since the above picture. She is known to be interested in men, music, her Sunday school class, and teaching in general. She is now majoring in elemen tary education and on the com pletion of four years hopes to teach 4th grade. She chose teach ing because she wants to feel that she’s contributing something to society. When summer rolls around she will probably be slaving in a hot office over a typewriter. Her pet peeve is catty boys. Music and dancing are her hob bies. She can be seen Monday nights practicing with, or con ducting the girls chorus. Many times she is caught singing her favorite song, “Round and Round.” Besides being an active member of tbe chorus, she also had the good fortune to go to Penn State for the Interpretative Beading festival in May. « * * With all these added extras you may wonder how she finds time to study, but she seems to man age as she made the dean’s list last semester and seems headed in the same direction again. Have you guessed who our • Dorm Chatter ® By Marion Rynd “What happened to your hair?” is an often heard expression when you look in Carol’s -direction. All kidding aside, we like it real well! The new style for many of our fine dorm survivors is to see how many times we can ask (very in directly) to get thrown into the pool and really get that far. Any comment, Anne? Speaking of the pool, Mary is becoming quite an aquatic person. Did anyone know that Dee is little short of a genius? She comes up with the handiest -and most useful inventions. One comment, “Don’t ask her about it.” - Janet is finally getting to work upon her ambition —to swim. She can now hold her head under water and will soon be swimming the length of the pool. Ruth and Betsy have come up with a new and a really clever game. I think they call it “switch about” or something to that ef fect. Swimming attire is quite a fashion. I»Ia:ge has three outfits. How many of them have you people seen??? A big job for Bose is to keep the room to fairly good shape * GUESS WHO ? mysterious girl is? Why of course, none other than the assistant edi tor, Evelyn Bernhard. Bom in New Kensington, Penn sylvania, on Febraury 7, 1938, this co-ed has one older and one younger sister. An advertising journalism major, she has served as Dorm Council president and the girls’ “second mother.” Credit is given her for the success, of the dorm girls’ many parties, specif ically the Sadie Hawkins Dance. In her “spare” time, this lass enjoys listening to music . . . any thing from Bach to Elvis . . . and might be found painting sets, posters, or composing lyrics to tunes appropriate for the coming party. . Grouchy and dominating people are her only dislikes. Fillet mignon, of which, she informed me, she has been deprived, for the past eight months, is her favorite food. Office work at United Steel workers of America and travel ing will occupy her summer vaca tion. Next fall you’ll find Renita Zonarich, our other assistant edi tor, painting sets, posters, and composing lyrics on main campus. Fortune teller at the Mardi Gras, student director of the Christmas play, active chorus member, member of a bowling team, the maid in “Angel Street,” after the usual nightly perfume battle. “Try the tennis court,” is a logi cal answer when anyone asks where Jane might be. Judy is seldom-seen around the dorm when she doesn’t just have to be there. Where have you been keeping yourself, kid? Never mind, Renita will watch out for you. We see Myraa has been “buzz ing” home nearly every weekend lately. There is just no change. Ina still spends 99-9/10% of every day writing to Bill. Good going, girl. Joan spends a lot of her spare timp outside as you can tell by one look at her sunburn. Phone calls have been rating pretty high on Janie’s list. Almost as high as Janice. Amy awoke with a start one afternoon about '2:20 when she thought she was on the Nevada testing grounds, but it was merely P.J. throwing her cocoanut against one of the precious fire places. We have a fanner in the dorm. Harriet’s animal calls certainly startle Mrs. L. ... if no one else. A battle is raging over the “al most real” man given to Susie T. Susie R. says she would love him a lot morel Perky Helens keeps things go ing with hsr cheery laughter when * • • and a trip to Penn Stats for in erpretative reading, are among the many achievements of this green eyed, brown-haired miss. The arts (music, drama, and writing) and sports, her favorite being swimming, rate high with her. This journalism major hopes to work on a newspaper, possibly be coming a fpreign correspondent someday, although this summer she will probably be found work ing in New York City as a wait ress. Breaking her foot, knitting, writing poetry, dancing, collect ing records and reading are among her many pastimes. On her hit tune list, “True Love” holds first place. Her pet peeve is people that lie and have no qualms about it. When she meets these people she often mumbles “Oh tish” (can you decipher this code) under her breath. Rhp hopes in the distant future to marry. Tbe ideal man must possess a sense of humor and varied interests coinciding with her own. She insists only that he be neat and dress well, since to her, looks axe superficial. This description fits none other than Betty Lou, “Betsy”, Seanor, editor-in-chief of the Nittany Cub. everyone else is complaining aboui the food. Western Auto Associate Store Everett A.

By Elaine. Hilbert Being a bridesmaid is worse than being a bride, and being one twice is double trouble. As long as I can remember, J hoped to be a bridesmaid at my broth er’s wedding, and also at that of my best friend. Little did I know that they would be married only one week apart! How could I pay for two dresses? My income tax return solved- this problem, so I told them both that I should be delighted. Then we started the hunt for bridesmaid dresses. Now, some say hunting for a brides maid’s dress is fun, but believe me they have never done it. First, you find a dress that is rather pretty, so you try it on. After you put it on, and the bride looks it over, you take it off because, “You can’t take the first one that you try on.” Then you pro ceed-to walk, put on dresses, take them off, and walk some more. When you finally decide on the dress, you guessed it, it was the first one after all! It feels so good just to relax and not worry about a thing. Then, BOOM, your whole world is shattered by the hidden threat . . . bridal showers. All of a sudden you discover that you have to attend them all. This means shower gifts.' Not just one, but about six showers are given for each girl. There are parties, showers, rehearsal dinners, with out end-. When the big day finally comes you begin to wonder if it was all worth it. Then you look at the bride walking down the aisle, and the wonderful expression on her face, and you know that all was not in vain. When you ask yourself the question, “Would you do it again?” the answer is, of course, yes. You would do it a million times over, but secretly you’re glad you don’t have to.

Erie Insurance. Exchange The Pioneer In The Insurance World Ballinger's 5 Sr 10c Wesleyville, Pa- Stale Impressions By Evelyn Bernhard When we went to the main campus for the Interpretative Beading Festival, I was uncer tain' what my reactions to the new situation would be. I was de termined to see just three things which I had heard so much about . .• Mount Nittany, the Nittany Lion,' and- Old Main. . We drove over Mount Nittany on our way to State College and on the trip home. From its peak, I could see acres of fertile farm lands stretching for miles and, in the distance, the adjoining hills. Looking at it from the campus, it was an odd mixture of light and dark greens, with a tan rib bon of road twisting its way to the top. The Nittany Lion crouched near the entrance to the football field as if ready to pounc-e upon any intruders. I could see why that lithe, gray body symbolized the coinage and spirit of each stu dent as well as the football team. As -we entered the campus, the mellow chimes of old Main tolled the quarter hour. The first build ing on the campus, although it has been rebuilt several times, still sends forth its welcoming message to each, new student and visitor alike. Fraternities and sororities form the nuclei of the social activities of college life. Each fraternity en deavors to outdo every other fra ternity in decorating its house for Spring Week. During this week fraternity parties are at their best and are usually open for one and all to attend. The new dorms and buildings such as the Hub, with its plate glass windows, modem reading room, cafeteria and dining hall, are an answer to a collegian’s prayer. Although I left Penn State after experiencing only a small part of life ,pn the main campus, this trip made me feel much closer to the “mother” campus and made Behrend seem like a larger part of an integrated, working body.
