Spring is here even if there isn't beer on the lawn. Father Healy announced from somewhere in Europe that Spring was official when he got a communique from second Healy informing him that short shorts and \ . halter tops were back on campus. With temperatures hurtling toward the 90's students were cutting classes in order to enjoy the luxury of third degree burns. The bronze brigade, comprised mostly of the fairer sex, could be seen sunning themselves in such unlikely places as the cemetery, the fire escape on first New North and the roof of Loyola. However, Spring does have its drawbacks, nothing more unpleasant than being confronted by a Hoya in pink madras pants and a .yel/ow Lacoste shirt. According to an informed source close to the administration the best places on campus to watch' the spring follies are; the New South tennis courts, on the banks of the baseball field, the graveyard, and of course Healy Lawn. And as we a/l know it­ will probably rain over the weekend.

In this fifth year of pUblication, GINS has sought to ~- cover a representative variety ,of the geographic and political areas of the world with student reporting and analysis. We have tried to achieve a mix of articles dealing at times with issues widely reported elsewhere (such as the Civil War in Lebanon, the power struggle in China, the elections in India, and the conflicts'in southern Africa), and with others less in the limelight (such as the problems of Botswana -and Lesotho, the situation in Hungary 20 years after an abortive revolution, and a potential constitutional crisis in France). We have been greatly aided in our five issues by the fact that GINS writers represent diverse international backgrounds.
