Student gifts flowers from Hawaii
A freshman Co-Ed from Hawaii quickly endeared herself to Pile Hall dormitory mates Monday.
Reason: Joyce Sodetani brought from her home in Wailuku, several boxes of orchids and other exotic flowers which she presented to the girls as they arrived.
She is pictured giving a bouquet of anthurium to Jean Henry a Pile student counselor and president of the Student Council.
Explained the bubbling newcomer: "I thought orchids would be as unusual to the girls here as snow will be to me."
