The Alfred Tech Campus was graced with the appearance of ' Mn Vincent Price on October 37, 7976. Fantasy Hide We often look without seeing. We hear without listening. We take for granted our good fortunes. Did you ever sit underneath a willow tree on a balmy summer's night and wonder what color the stars were? Could it have crossed your imagination that there is another world, parallel to ours . . . There could be universes moving in harmony with ours, There is so much to know, I am sad not to know it all. Imagine this earth as an atom, the smallest structure we know of to be a minute particle of some totally other foreign being. Come on! We are going on a Fantasy Ride Clear your minds of life in the conventional sense. You do not breathe, drink, eat for sustenance, or in other words, YOU Do not exist. Imagine another being whose life span is so incredibly slow, that one millionth of a second to us is over a millenium, or thousands of decades to it. Suppose that it was a rock . . . ls it conceivable, I question, that rocks are aIive?? Ah, yes. I can hear your cold, bitter laughter now, but remember: this is Fantasy Ride Why does the sun rise on the East? What would you think if one day it just decided to rise in the South? Sometimes this carousel is tough to slow down. The world is a parade of lively, vibrant, bouncy clowns. Now, we all know that clowns are not all happy, Especially when we know that the face is painted on. Ouickly dissolve yourself from reality and become an Entity unto yourself Set up a motion picture screen. You are the sole viewer. Everyone around you is playing a game! Notice all the roles of your compatriots. Games! Games! Now, can you push the button in your mind to Fast Forward? Ha! ha! I will never stop laughing at this enigma. ' Have you ever thought of all the books there are in this world And the fact that you will never be able to read them all? You will never know what your chiIdren's futures hold. Will the world be overcome by pollution? Will we be living in centuries to come in plastic Weather domes, glass houses . . . have Propjets attached to our backs for transportation? Questions Circles Puzzles Mind-benders Circles Circles We have all the answers in raw materials to find other answers. Circles Circles Circles When will we end our Fantasy Ride? Louise Christensen, 1977 113

Five people suffered eye in- juries. Damages between the two campuses are estimated to be in the hundreds of dollars. Campus security's main con- cem is that students do not engage in any sort of hazardous action, such as packing ice and rock into snowballs, breaking windows, and petting cars. Photographs were taken by secm-ity officers of those students in the mob action. Campus security said the photographs provide easy identification of those involved. What will follow as a result ofthe photographs hhs yet to be decided. Tech Cuts Back To 65, 55 Degrees The Alfred Vote In keeping with the spirit of the bicentennial election year, the A.C.E.S. dining units sponsored an election dinner.
