EAVES are beginning to change colors, midterms are almost
over and fall break is just around the corner. Most students are

but there are some who want to hit the road. And fall break may be

activities in the Triangle Area, including Carolina football. The Tar
Heels host N.C. State Saturday at Kenan Memorial Stadium.
For those who wish to brave N.C. State's home turf, the North
