European Trip
Found in Walnut
By College Coed
Ever hear of a surprise package
taking the form of a trip to Eu
rope? It did for Diane Thatcher,
fourth semester English major,
who'll be sailing June 24 for Penn
State's Summer Seminar in Eu
rope.
conceived
eightsurprise was conceived
eight years ago in Montoursville,
when Miss Thatcher's parents de
cided that someday they'd send
their only daughter abroad. Not
a word was said.
Cracks Walnuts for Hours
Last Christmas Miss Thatcher
tackled a long, white stocking
she's been hanging up every year.
In it, she found a walnut shell
with a piece of paper enclosed.
The paper turned out to . be a
poem about a trip to Europe. It
didn't take too much guessing to
discover who the traveler would
be.
Miss Thatcher claims her moth
er had spent half the previous
night cracking walnuts before
she could get a perfect one.
Miss Thatcher will travel with
15 other students from schools
all over Pennsylvania on a tour
sponsored by the Extension Ser
vice. Dr. William H. Gray, pro
fessor of history at the College,
will lead the tour. England,
France, Switzerland, Austria,
Italy, and Yugoslavia will be visi
ted by the group as part of the
second Institute on World Affairs
and International Understanding
held on campus during the main
summer session.
Paris Is Attraction
Right now, Miss Thatcher ad
mits that her most trying pro-b
-iem is that of cramming every
thing she wants to take with her
into on e suitcase and a small
carrying bag. She is trying to
figure out where she is going - to
put all the Christmas presents she
plans to bring home.
There is no hesitation when
this coed is asked what she wants
to see most in Europe. Paris is
definitely the answer, although
her reaction to the trip in general
is "it's really all wonderful." In
tact, Miss Thatcher is so excited
now she can't wait until June 24.
WRA to Hold Banquet
