Do you have a few minutes at lunch time you don’t know what to do with? Would you like a bit of fun and exercise? There are three ping pong tables on the cafeteria porch just for that pur pose. Most games require a lot of people or a lot of time or a lot of money but not ping pong.

From 12:30 until 1:30 p.m. you I will find a Ping Pong tournament in progress. Newcomers can enter!

It is a couple of seats in Section XC, at the top of the sta dium and behind the goal-posts. It is the kick off and spirited play at the far end of. the field. It is a wide end run that may be brilliant, if from where you are sitting, you could make out wheth er it was for two yards or twenty. It is a smash through center for a touchdown. Or so you are told. You didn’t see it because two people were standing in front of you trying to persuade two oth er people that they are in the wrong seats. It is more people coming in looking for seats and other peo ple signaling for hot dogs. It is the second quarter and the play shifted to your end of the field. It is a tall blond lady three rows down who prefers to stand. It is cries of “down in front!” It is a beautiful completed pass with nothing between you and it but the blond lady. It is people going out before the half. It is you going out. It is another touchdown before you get back. It is everybody up and police on the run. It is a fight! It is an ambulance. Has somebody died? It is the sun going down. It is standings bowling IIcqasBq ?gaJ!nor etji pamow 0Z6T PI JO XBp jMij aq? no 'i NATIONAL L] Teams ” Control ^ Champagne ® Pulp Mill 5 Office ^ y Maintenance ^ g Machine Room — ^ AMERICAN Teams ^ q 1 Champagne ^ j Research ^ 4 Office 3 6 Refining ^ 7 Power 2 g Machine Room — TOO CALLOUS FOB tt When Edward Evere chaplain of the ^enat > asked him, “Do you P .J Hale?” 55^ him.
