At 12:00 and one second a.m. on
the fair morn of Wednesday, March
21, Spring officially arrived Sud-
denly there is a lightness in the
air, little green leaves appear on
the trees and the sound of lawn
mowers echo across the campus
(Ah - the smell of fresh mowed
grass — when I am not peezing
d am allergic to grass), I love to
walk across campus following the
lawn mowers).
Spring has brought many new
and annual joys into my life. I had
a terrible “SUB-pallor” from spend
ing all my time in the S.U.B. But
not anymore'! 1 now have a'beau-
tiful sunburn from sunbathing on
the roof of Kurth Hall. (I wonder
why everytime a bunch of us are
up there is this plane that keeps
flying over again and again getting
lower and lower?)
At this time of year I always
get a urge to go hiking — you
know — communicate with nature
and all that. Weil, when I could
not control myself any longer I
gathered up a batch of assorted
friends and headed for the Booties.
I learned something very interest-

and other superficial skin irrita-
tions. Now there is something ev-

Spring fever has yet to hit me
but I am waiting restlessly for the
first signs. In fact I’ve been cut-

it hits.
And then there is that famous
