There were about twelve ta- bles at which you could see ex- cited and nervous faces anxious- ly awaiting a needed number to yell Bingo as hard and loud as Possible. The luck favored Yolanda San Juan, Lleana Fueyo, Geyla Gil- son, Nyria Guerra and Torina de Cardenas, to whom prizes were given. Although not all of them were lucky enough to leave with a coveted prize, yet all shared in the jubilant spirit of Internos. The Juniors are in possession of the Silver Internos Trophy awarded for the best dramatic production. “Oh, My Operation” was a shadow play which pro- duced many laughs and merited the trophy. GIRLS YOU ARE IMPORTANT By Nancy Sawyer Every week each girl’s main Thursday when Father Joseph Riley, S: J., comes to address the members of the Student Body. * Father Riley is a Navy Chap- lain and at the present time is Stationed at Boca Chica. He is kind enough to devote part of his time to the girls at the Con- vent of Mary Immaculate. Be- fore joining the Navy, ‘Father Riley taught at Catholic schools in the north, Father's main theme is, “Girls you ‘are the most important people in the world.” He uses every means to teach the students at the Con- vent of Mary Immaculate that the youth of today hold the key to the world problems. Father Riley’s talks are not only interesting but -helpful. We could never express our thanks for his wonderful inspiration.

One is a cheering song for CMI which is filled with pep and The students of CMI will enjoy singing this cheering song. The other composition is one com- posed for the Internos Club of CMI. This song is one describing the boarding students and telling of the work they perform. This song was really welcomed by the Internos members with enthusiasm. They consider them- rhythm. | great | s Key Books By A. de T. GINGRAS Mehring, the translated . from Winston, Non-fiction,’ 290 pages, Bobbs Merrilk Company,:’ New York and Indianapolis.)
