The Nittany cub., January 24, 1967, Image 5

Here's our on-the—spot-reporter at the
bottom of the treacherous short cut to
the 0.8. Building where we find a large
c group or students .
On-the-spot-reporter: "What seems to be
the problem here?
Joe Student:(S'tepping over an accumulation
of bodies) "One of the professors tripped
over his bell-bottoms and caused an aval—
anche. But, it really wasn't his fault.
The snow and ice has been building up for
40 days and 40 nights."
0.5. R.: "Don't you have a snow plow?"
J.S.: "Yes, but the guy who drives it
doesn't like to come out on cold days.
But, It's not so bad. Sometimes Dean
Lane stands at the top of the hill and
- Warms a handfull of sawdust on the ice.l
e0..5.R.: "Is sawdust the only safeguard
on the short out?''
J.S.: "No, half-way down therets a hand
MI made of a warped bamboo pole support&
by Z sapplings."
0,,,5.R.: "Do you have any suggestions for
~ stud ints planning to ascend the hill?"
J.S.: "'Yes, wear football cleats and carry
a .22 to ward off attacks by roring
mountain goats which reside in the area."
