The ability to speak Spanish would be helpful for the visit, but it is not essential, Mr. Fitzgerald says. “A student will manage if he has a desire to learn, apply him self, and has a spirit of adventure.” Total cost of the trip will range from $420 to $550, depending on the choice of living accommoda tions and the number of field trips taken. “Mexico is a paradise for shop ping,” warned Fitzgerald, “and those who cannot resist a bargain should be prepared.” The group will study at the University of Mexico, but there are no dormitories on campus. All accommodations will be in private homes and Fitzgerald will per sonally supervise the selection of residences. Courses in the fields of language, literature, art and history will be taken by members of the group. The only require ment is that the courses be ap proved by the College before they are taken this summer. For further information contact Jack L.

Let them move forward in conquest; To those who are strong, Let them make a noble attempt, For Mt. Bailey shall be ours.” A group of brave explorers from third floor Myers set out recently to conquer the snow-covered Mt. Bailey. These brave men, all whose second na ture is that of answering the call of adventure, were deter mined to claim success even though they were to face precar ious conditions. Led by their President “N. B.” Mose McCall, their triumphant conquest be gan at 2:00 P. M. Those who dared to brave the falling snow, the dan- g e r o u s crevices, and the chilling cold, were “Sonny The Terror” Rice, Dave “Loverboy” Waites, Larry “All-Conference” Bruce, Jerry “Jap” Chandler, Charley “Chief” Young, Robert “Muscles” Hallaman, “Colonel” Bill Fordham, Dave “Smiley” Livengood, Walker “Go” Pow ell, Sam “The Brave” Runge, Oley “The Adventurer” Mas- ten, Wormy “The Phantom” Remey, and Gary “The Tank” Hammonds. Rice Starts Fire When these courageous men finally reached the summit, the temperature was around 24 de grees, and the snow was over two feet deep. Upon reaching the top they took refuge in a cave as a blizzard, sweeping in from the north, made conditi- tions almost unbearable. While in the cave. Sonny Rice rubbed two sticks (two matches) to gether and started a fire to warm the cold but spirited group. Upon leaving, Dave Livengood extinguished the fire in regular Boy Scout fashion. For the most part, the climb was made on about a 45 degree angle, presenting problems all along the way. During the de scent, a revolt (a free-for-all) broke out, and all the members came tumbling, falling, sliding. SEE OUR New Spring Selections of SHOES R. S. GIBBS &C0.

When arriving back at the dormitory around 6:00 o’clock, the snow-covered, tired, but smiling adventurers were met by their housemother Mrs. Boykin, who gave a typical sigh of re lief. Mose McCall, when speaking of the experience, had this to say, “It was snowing very hard, and was extremely cold, never theless, even though we faced great danger, due to the high intelligence of our group, I know we would do it again.” Now there is but one remaining question . . . Well third floor, you have done it again . . . what next? Coed Is Self Contradiction (ACP)—Today’s coed is full of contradictions. That’s one woman’s opinion — expressed by Brenda Haspel in the Louisiana State University REVILLE. Today’s coed is chic, fashion conscious, witty, amiable and a party girl. She is neat and well-groomed yet she wears dirty sneakers. She is a contradiction of herself and what she is supposed to be. She is crowd-conscious and an individual, like others, only different. She believes in the natural look so she wears pale lipstick and too much eye make-up. She hates the food in the cafe teria but has gained five pounds since the beginning of the semes ter. She tells everyone she is overweight but her doctor thinks she could use five more pounds. She doesn’t want to get mar ried but is looking for a husband. She goes out the night before an exam and then stays up the re mainder of the night cramming. Her room is a cluttered mess but her hair is never out of place and her slip never shows. She has practiced her walk and facial expressions in the mirror but claims she is completely natural. She works hard but her parents think she is lazy. She’s interested in religion and politics but doesn’t know enough about either to discuss them in telligently. She smokes too much, losw too much sleep, doesn’t eat enough vegetables, talks against those in authority, but is still a good kid. She is a child yet she is very much a woman — she is today’s coed and tomorrow’s housewife, mother, career girl and influencer of the American opinion. Comfortable Shoes Need Not Be Thrown Away . . .
