Among tha ducks urfro dwelt Otars is ora woeful creature simitar in many re je c t* to a mad bomber. It is time the campus was made aware of tha mad layor. The most obvious sign of this fowl pathology are the duck eggs lying about in the grass, far from mothers or any sign of neats. Are there to be ducklings brought so hesdlssdy into the world? Or are these eggs sterile objects, fit only for breakfast? We can be aaaired that the ducks do not know the difference between a fertile, end a sterile egg. and would lay either variety with the same attitude, usually beast ■iMmiwi viiwmion. Hence the pathology. Could our ducks be plenty sick of our pond? There are other eggs, which require more scrutiny to discover, for they lie in the cold mud st the edge of the water, is this deliberate infanticide? Could the temperature there be suitable for incubation? doubtful. But one can be sure that the eggs which have been layed - which have been observed being (eyed - in tha water itself, have about as much chance for survhal as a Cambodian villager. If the ducks cannot sanely endure the pond, can we? Are we? Perhaps humans are endowed with more emotional stability fkem oAsink 2* non pprtiinlu more than the ducks.

The west bank of the pond is covered with heaps of cut-down brudi where rsts could easily find comfortable homes; the dtore is scattered with diards of food jars and wicked I inters of two-uy-fours; erosion has set in, which could be combatted by stakes, weed-seed, and a layer of straw, as outlined in any high school biology text; the southeast tip of the pond is graced by a giant rusting dune of cans end scraps of tin and old wire. Nearly one of merything which could have appeared during construction of the building, did; ell of it could have been taken away to the dump, and wasn't. Tentative plans can be made to appeal for outside help in this disastrous situation. In fact, there have been offers made to clean up not only the pond, but the entire campus, if something on't done shortly.
