don the cares of school life and turn
their thoughts to vacation trips.
"We're going to spend next month on
the Great Lakes," "We'll probably go
west and live in the mountains for a
month" or "We arc going East" were
the common expressions from the
University folk when they were asked
about where they would spend
their time until the University opened
in September. The main idea voiced
by them all, however, was: "We want
to go to some locality that is cooler
than Columbia."
One University teacher, however, is
not so anxious about spending August
in such style; he will utilize the hot
weather month of the year in sclf
