Golly gee willakers. Classifieds sure do look small today. Not even half a page. Wecould sell more of the little devils, you know, if you just went over to the info booth in the Campus Center and bought one. Sure, they’re a pain in the butt to lay out, but that’s why we’re here. So buy a classified today ... they’re only two dollars... splurge! Tuesday, October 4,1994 welve __ THE TUFTS DAILY
