the summer

GENTLE BROOKS TURN RUDE, shouldering harsh snows aside on their way to muted laughter, a time of crackling fires, friends and cloud pictures in the sky. It greet the coming spring; boulders bask greedily, for this is their time in the sun, is summer in Wyoming, and it beckons with the subtle, insistent call to follow one's a resurrection from winter's grave. It is a time for aimless wanderings, soft words, daydreams, and to be free.

But let's reflect back to the past spring term when there were nearly 8,000 hustling, bustling students using the in­ adequate roadways of the campus.

lt Maybe you were one of those fortunate people who got to experience the thrill, or fear as the case may be, of trying to walk to a class. The experience may be compared very realistically to driving on the highways of our nation. Let's take a trip across campus during the mid-morning rush between classes. There are several routes one can take, but we'll start out at the place where nearly everybody has, or had, at least one class—the new classroom building. As soon as you find a door that's unlocked, you slide out into traffic. In a few feet you hit the rough temporary surface put down between the classroom building and Aven Nelson, but your 1969 hush puppies absorb the roughness and you hardly feel the bumps. A 1964 pair of Converse tennis shoes passes you with one sole flapping. "Hope that guy makes it all the way to the Union," you think. After a brief trip onto smooth cement you're back on the temporary ^ , surface getting ready to cross "The Death Trap." The "Trap" is named from a temporary road built through campus to handle the truck traffic to the construction site. Here is a place where you want to make sure nothing is blocking your side window vision. You downshift your puppies and dig in with ten toe-power. In a couple of seconds you're off the road and back on to rough road. You've made it again! But up ahead lies one of the most dangerous stretches of road on the long journey across campus. The narrow highway that runs along the north side of Old Main with a temporary layer of asphalt put down along the north edge of that to make it wider, is affectionately known as "Satan's Strip." You grit your teeth and slip in behind a pair of 1968 wing tips as the single line of traffic begins to form. It is really crowded today and a tan pair of 1967 penny loafers is dragging his heel causing a major jam. You look up ahead and see about 15 vehicles in front of you. A pair of 1964 Beatle boots is getting impatient. There's a break in the line coming ROXANN GOERTZ MODELS her brown hair and brown eyes along with yellow towards you, but it's way too small for the boots to make it. Uh-oh, he's summer pant-dress.

The "Cruisers" are practically demolished. Both soles are badly (photo by James Stewart) scratched and torn with both straps broken. It looks hopeless. The poor fellow at the wheel has a bad cut on one foot and a deep heel print in the other. The boots are in much better shape, but of course they weren't much to start with.
