♦FOR THE past 150 years
thanks to you students (and
we admit that you are our
life blood) we've managed
to keep our head above
water and maintain a mod-
erate degree of sanity. But
after myriads of party pic
tures and composites and
an occasional storm in Puer-
to Rico brewed by the diety
of decorum .and propiety,
we get just plain fatigued.
So . . . by the end of this
month we wilt be winging
our way to Spain. Along
with Polly, Bunny and my
self, Nina too would like to
express her appreciation of
your patronage for making
this possible.
