Studying . . . YECH! That alarm which just shocked you out of the slumber world foretold of a day equally as rotten as the previous one. To see how the outside world ap pear, you open the blinds — and the side that catches your eye almost makes you want to fall back in bed. In the distance you see a form, trotting down the driveway. Bright sunlight reflects off the sweat-suited, blond headed, bouncing body of Meredith’s own Roadrunner, Linda Ehrllch. You groan, and you wonder how anyone can do it! And at this hour of the morning! For Linda Ehrlich, the jogging freshman from Greensboro, run ning around the campus is an ac cepted facet of her daily routine. She jogs every day, rain or shine. “I even ran one day with a foot of snow on the ground!” she exclaimed. She’s been jogging daily for over a year. “Why!” 1 demanded. Enthusiastically, she replied, “To keep from getting fat. I love to eat but eating makes me fat. If I jog, I can eat anything and as much of it as I want.” After a thoughtful pause, she added, “But then, I wouldn’t recommend jogging just after eating two hot dogs.” The energetic girl with a per sonality like a jar of bubble soap related how her exercise routine be gan. The summer before her senior year had been an active one. Swim ming and other sports during the lazy summer days had helped Linda get in excellent shape. She dreaded the winter with its excess of adipose tissue, so she decided to beat the fat. She had read and heard a great deal about jog^ng for health rea sons, so she decided to try it. In Greensboro she ran around the block, usually after school. “I never had time before classes in the morn ing!” A few friends began the proj ect with her, but before long, the number had dwindled to a lonely, but determined, one. Any repercussions? Only when she was sick, but she jogged anyway, on the sly. The biggest worry came from Linda’s mom, who thought Linda was working too hard at jog ging. Then Linda arrived at Meredith, and her early morning schedule al lowed her to continue her exercise. Only thing, the girls at Meredith were even less cooperative than the hometown friends. The Meredith students wouldn’t even try to join John Vassilion's North Hills Steak House & Tavern Speclalizins in CHARCOAL STEAKS i; GUESS WHAT??

Linda in her daily run around cam pus. However, they did contribute one facet to Linda’s “own thing” — a new name, ‘‘The Roadrunner!” Linda revealed that many good things have resulted from her jog ging. She’s by no means fat, and she confided, “I haven’t gotten sick yet either.” She stays in excellent shape, a great asset due to her love of sports. She said she meets lots of people on her trip around campus, such as “the President, three times, but he’s always driving his car.” And the members of the “Make Meredith Marvelous Team,” the construction workers, have gotten accustomed to Linda’s daily run by the construction sites. It seems that they have worked up a waving correspondence. Finally I chanced, “Well, don’t you get tired?” “Sure I do!” she quickly an swered. “But the feeling is a good tired. I enjoy it.” Maybe we could learn a lesson from Linda. If she can face all the static she gets from her classmates about her jogging, possibly we can face the morning and join her. Really, she’d be glad to have us along. The time? Why, 9:30 on Tuesdays and Thursdays and 8:00 on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fri days! FUNNY you're ONCE A MONTH YOU FEEL LIKE A You’re not as mini as usual? It’s only temporary, you know. A monthly problem. But who cares when you have that puffy, bloated, "Oh, I’m so fat feeling”? TRENDAR, that’s who. TRENDARXL help keep you slim as you are all month long. Its modern diuretic (water-reducing) action controls temporary pre-men- strual weight gain. (That can be up to 7 pounds!) Start taking TRENDAR 4 to 7 days before that time. It’ll help make you look better and feel better. TRiimiurmBmGiAiimAEAm.! RINALDrS PBZA BEUA 3112 HILLSBOROUGH ST.
