A MAD MAN'S
DREAM
by Airam
"I was sitting very calmly
in the SUB, sir, very calmly,
when all of a sudden, I saw these
little elves climb out from be
hind the Penn State sign. At
first I was astonished sir, ab
solutely astonished at the
sight of these elves. However,
I kept complete control of my
self, and when they drew near,
I acted as if nothing was wrong,
absolutely nothing.
"Soon there were hundreds
of these little elves, literally
hundreds of them coming out
from behind the sign, and soon,
they were surrounding me. They
demanded to know who I was and
what I was doing.
"Of course, by this time,
I was not sure what to do. I
mean, how often does one see
hundreds of elves surrounding
one on all sides? Well, any
way, I couldn't decide whether
to ignore them, talk to them,
or leave a note for Dr. Stauden -
meier. At any rate, there they
were, and I had to make a de
cision. So I decided to talk
to them.
"Now I know this is rather
unbelievable, sir, truly unbe
lievable, but they intend to
take over the campus. The elves
say that they have already taken
over the records office, and the
computer room is next. Without
them, sir, you know the rest of
continued from bottom
the campus will fall. They
said that after they have con
quered Hazleton Campus, the
elves will then move on to the
Wilkes-Barre, Scranton, and
Allentown campuses. They al
ready have workers at Ogontz,
and Behrpnd. What are we going
to do sir, what are we going
to do?
"On my honor as a student,
Mr. Administrator, you know I
wouldn't lie to you about a mat
ter of this importance.
"Well, anyway, there I was,
sir, in this room with all these
elves. There must have been
hundreds of them, and more were
still coming out from behind
the sign.
"When I asked the elves how
they ate, the elves said they
ate the SUB food, and that's
why prices were rising. The
elves also said, that if they
kept eating the food, and prices
kept inflating, then the stu
dents would rise up and revolt.
Imagine that, sir! A revolt on
this campus! How exciting!
"Ahem. Well, the next thine
I knew, the elves had lined up
in double file, sir, double
file, and were marching out the
:D2=nt doors of the SUB. I saw
them troop up to the Classroom
Building and that's the last I
saw of them."
The door opened and in
walked 4 men, 2 of which were:
holding a white canvas object.
2 men restrained the patient,
while the other 2 put the white
jacket on him.
What the administrator
failed to realize was that it
was the end of the ninth week
of the term, and anyone who sees
little elves at this - time is
quite normal. However, a word
of caution must be extended to
all students and faculty.
Anyone seeing little elves
marching in double file around
the campus, is advised to please
notify the administration immed
iately.
A soap bubble is the
most beautiful thing, and the
most exquisite in nature.
Grief can take care of
itself; but to get the full
value of joy you must have
'somebody to divide it with.
