SENIOR TQ BE GUEST OF CELEBRITY
"What am I going to talk about?" is the plaint of Judy Wiener these days Her troubles are connected with a proposed trip
to Chicago, which, scheduled for this week, only causes her to re-peat her plea more often as the time draws near
The story dates back to last summer when Sinclair Lewis, who was in Duluth writing a new boo~, was a guest of the Wieners' A few weeks ago Jndy received a letter from Mr Lewis inviting her to be his guest in Chicago, as he will pass through there on his nation-wide lecture tour
"We're having luncheon with President Hutchins of Chicago University!" exclaims Judy, "be-cause he especially wants me to 'meet his friend, Bob Hutchins' •
And in the evening I'm going to hear a debate between Mr Lewis and Lewis Browne Isn't it ex-citing?"
And then it comes again "To meet all these brilliant people is wonderful but what will I talk about?"

ANN URIBE VISITS SABIN
As she left Sabin, one puz-zled student remarked to another,
"I'm certain I heard a baby in
there." She·wasn't wrong, because
last Wednesday, Ann Uribe, who
was born in Bogota, Columbia,
nine months ago, made her tour of
the science building, visiting
Miss West, the bacti department,
and the chem labs
Analytical balances were forgotten when the girls in the
Bio-chem class caught sight of
the youngster Crowding around
her, excited students exclaimed,
110h, isn't she sweet!" "Can't
you smile for me, Ann?" "Let
me hold her nowl"
Displaying a lively interest
in the pipettes and stirring rods,
which developed into noth~ng more
than a desire for something to
chew on, Ann grunted her
disap-pointment when the inappropriate
playthings were taken from her
However, Miss Caswell came to the
rescue with a new, clean, wooden
thermomet~r case, and the baby
was happy
1 '1 hear you have a nursery
in here," remarked Dr Weil as
he entered the lab "She'd make
a good subject to study for Child
Psychology," he continued
chuck-ing Ann under her chin
The visit was brought to
an end when a student emptied ru1
ether flask in the sink But Ann,
following in the footsteps of her
mother, the former Dorothy Georg
of the Red class of '38, and her
aunt, Bobbie Georg, will return
to Downer as a member of the Red
class of 1966

May play, sh~ h~s been a member of

Mimim," "The Doctor in Spite of
Himself", and "Hurry Up1n Wait."
She has also spent much time on
war work, in bandaging and First
Aid
Laugh crinkles next to her eyes, and the peculiar way she has
of screwing up her nose will
iden-tify her to those who Y~ow her
best
A finalist in last year's sonnet-reading contest, she
rep-resented Do~ner at the poetry
festival to which Rockford and
MacMurray colleges were invited
Shakespeare and biking are her
present hobbies

of Morley Hicks to view his art exhibit The meeting is planned for Thursday, November 16
"It should be most interest-ing," says Phyllis Hoppe, presi-dent of the club, "since Mr Hicks,
a retired business man, is dis-playing just his own work."
