HIGHACRES COLLEGIAN
THE LaST MTLE
Then, to my surprise, another car managed
to creep up behind. This time I was
smarterl I scrambled for the right side
„f the road only to roll back into the
path of the ROTG boys doing double time.
Finally, however, I made it.
That afternoon, my classes completed, I
was ready to go home* This time I did
not chance the road. Instead, I started
down the hill through the woods near
South Hall, It was difficult walking
because of the slippery earth, so I
decided to slide down, I reached the
bottom in a remarkably short id me and
thereby guessed this straight—line
distance to be approximately one-fourth
the distance covered by the winding road.
Being an optimist, I wondered what an
asset a path would be covering this
shortened distance. However, no path
existed, and still no path exists.
So, I*ll leave you with this thought.
What are we going to do about it? Will
you help save a life? Namely, mine!
