and pulled the others with her
while she was at it.
■ Of course, none of this work
was done in costume, and that
led to some funny sights too.
For instance, Mike was dress
ed in black snuggies that ended
high above the knees. Over this,
she had a little yellow skirt. It
seemed to serve no particular
purpose, but it certainly stood
out. The girl at the other end
of the line was wearing a green
thing. This also must have been
practical, but, in truth, it re
sembled a bag.
In Frank’s group, the incon
gruity of it all was more pro
nounced. At one end was a little
young lady, attired in blonde
hair, a black suit and high heels.
Next to her was a chorine at
tired in a sweater and skirt. All
the way at the other end was a
little one wearing slacks of plaid
and a fuzzy sweater. Frank was
at his dapper best, but the rest
of the males were decked out
in a varied assortment of white
shirts, plaid shirts, gray flan
nels and navy denims.
We sat there, and watched
everyone scurrying - around,
and people hanging from the
balcony, fixing lights, and kids
sipping milk or eating ice
cream, and we wondered, in the
strict sense of the - word. We
didn't wonder whether the
show would work out all right.
Somehow, it always does.
■But we wondered how so much
could be accomplished in the
short period of time the cast has
been rehearsing. And we wonder
ed at the time all of the people
put into the thing.

KEELER'S
Hi!
Perhaps I should have' introduced myself before, but
everyone was *so busy with orientation, customs, and
blue books that I didn't get a chance to meet all of you.
I'm the Penn State Book Exchange. You can call me BX
for short,
I am in my 6th semester, majoring in economy to
students, and have a heavy schedule in bargains. I am
rather crowded in a small room in the TUB—that's pretty
far from everything, but that's what I call home,
Say, I have a cousin that lives across the hall. May-
be you've met him, the Used Book Agency, I call him
the ÜBA. He handles all the used books; I take care of
dll the school supplies.
I hope everyone knows that you get a 20% refund
on all purchases that you do with me. I told most of
the freshman but that ‘goes for the upperclassman as well,
That's about all for now but do come up and see
us sometime soon.
