But she is a brave, brawny girl and she never complains, and by and by her patience is rewarded: in the summer of 1859 she wins a football scholarship to Alabama. llurd-working Hester soon wins her letter and everyone says she is a shoo-in for All-Conference honors, but along comes the War Between the States and football, alas, is dropiied for the duration. Poor Hester goes buck to New England. It is a hitter cold winter and poor Hester, alas, does not have any warm clothing except for her football sweater from Alabama, but that, alas, has a big scarlet “A” on the front of it and she can hardly wear such a thing in New England where Union sentiment runs so high. Poor Hester, alas, freezes to death. LITTLE WOMEh by Louisa May “Bubbles ” Akott The Marches are a very happy family—and for no discernible reason. They are poor as snakes; they work from cockcrow to evensong; their dear old father Philip is away with the Union armies; and they can't do a thing with their hair. Still, nothing can dampen the spirits of madcap Meg, jocular Jo, buoyant Beth, animated Amy, and crazy old Marmee, as the merry March girls laughingly call their lovable mother. Well sir, one Christinas the March girls get an invitation to a ball. They are dying to go because they never have any fun at all except maybe a few chuckles during the hog-rendering season. But Beth reminds her sisters that they can hardly go traipsing off to a ball and leave poor Murmee all alone at Christinas time. The sisters swear a lot, but they finally agree with Beth. Marmee, however, will not hear of it. “Land’s sakes, little women!” she cries. “You must go to the ball and have some fun. There will be fruit punch and Toll House cookies and Early Ameiican sandwiches. Best of all, there will be morris dancing. Oh, how your father and I used to love that!” "I never knew father could dance,” cries Meg. “Oh yeah?” cries Marmee. “You should have seen Philip morris.” “Was Philip a good morriser?” cries Jo. “The best!” cries Marmee. "Philip could morris in soft pack or flip-top box and was full of fine, fresh, natural mildness!” The girls are cheered to hear this and go to the ball. Marmee stays home alone, but soon gets a wonderful surprise: Philip conies back from the war! When the girls return from the ball, they find Marmee and Philip morrising, and they cry "Huzzah 1” and throw their poke bonnets in the air, where they are to this day. And speaking of literature.

These conditions showed that there is no need for an increase in telephones in the residence halls at th present time, Diehl said. i Lines connecting the Univer sity with the town appear to be adequate, also, he said. About 76,000 calls come into the Univer sity each week from local tele phones and through long distance lines, he said. j The lines are not tied up very ioften, Diehl said, but when they are they become free in about five minutes. Diehl answered students' re- ithor of “I H’os a Teen-age Dwarf ”, “The Many Loves of Dohie Gillis”, etc.) * « * WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER 2, 1959 quests that they be allowed to dial down town from all phones in the residence halls, by saying: “This would not only increase the cost of the system, but there would be no way to stop students from calling long distance on their private phones. “The Physical Plant has never made any official announcement that down town dialing would be permitted on all residence hall telephones, he said, and this idea was never included in our origi nal plans.” miiiiimmmiiimiimmiiimimimni CLASSIFIEDS CASH—I 7 word* or l«u 'IHAR(iE—I2 words or lm 1.39 one insertion $.75 two insertions 11.09 three insertions Additional words—3 for t.3fi tor each daj of Insertion ADS MUSI BE IN BY 11:00 A.M.
