I don’t blame those fish for grabbing the opportunity to take advantage of an “open” Saturday ,and hiking to Tealand or (???), but I wonder what will become of the bonpre.^

Will the minority of students(pertaining to dewdrops, serge- heads, and seniors) be able to gath­er enough material for a bonfire which can be used to produce spirit in us, our team, and our AWOL
