Green oak leaves shelter St. Ambrose from the
too blue sky. Crab grass fills in the barren short

tiac with Illinois plates pulls slowly into the
South Hall parking lot. A slender young girl

clothes into the dorm. Her eyes are bright but
anxious. Her mother looks worried. Somewhere
in Bettendorf another mother yells up the
stairs, "Bob, at two o'clock orientation begins!"
It's lazy August. School begins.
In the business and registrar's offices long registration lines tie knots in ... the roar of 'Takin'
Care of Business' at a crowded Danceland. The
bookstore cash register runs out of tape ... as
football players return from the nurse's office
. . locked up . . . the Chapel is quiet. Confessionals store unused hymnals. Everybody in is
the Union talking people out of their milk and
beer money. The Third World Hunger fund lassoes 1200 dollars. Oak leaves brush one another
making sounds of .. . "telephone for ..." ...
Yahweh! The biology department misses Dr.
Vinje and the business department misses . .
"The point is, more required hours may mean a
better ..." SGA listens to off-campus arguments for representation and remains ... in the
