"What did Mrs. J. Forrest Diehl do on her trip to Europe this summer? Why visit the flower shows of course. Retiring first vice president of the Coral Gables Garden Club and an accredited flower show judge, Mildred Diehl first attended the orchid show in London in early May, and then the Chelsea Flower Show, also in London, so huge it takes seven tents to house the entries. "I saw sweetpeas, the most beautiful, with foot-long stems," she said. It was Mr. and Mrs. Diehl's first trip abroad. They took in the Passion Play at Oberammergau and visited the stadium in Rome, place of the Olympic contest but returned home in time to see it via TV and enjoyed it more. "We were so homesick for Coral Gables and home that we took a jet home," Mildred said. Ceil Shouse who entered Randolph-Macon College for Women, Lynchburg, Va., on Sept. 12, writes her mother Tinsley (Ms. John Felix) Shouse, 2718 Alhambra Cir., that "my laundry comes back 'folded' of all things" Tinsley says, "she'll learn not to expect blouses and skirts on hangers with nary a fold or wrinkle." Ciel is majoring in history and says that her roommate is from Houston, Texas. Also at Randolph-Macon from the Gables are Patricia Kehoe and Carolyn Butler. Meri (Mrs. Thomas W.) Hegler, 12855 SW 81st Ave., takes time out from looking after her 10-week-old son, to handle publicity for the Coco Plum Womn's Club.

T.," he has a sister, Christina, who become very grown up this fall.
