PLEASE HELP KEEP OUR CAMPUS GREEN MSCA Not much need for this pleading during the winter of ' 55 — Duke sow lot of snow, and Nature kept our campus white in spite of us.

There is the sudden rallle ol a cart on the slones helou the window, it is !():. ' }(). The chow men take their station lieneath the darkened arehwavs. Their shouts echo over llic lill iiifiht air. dhow man! (iliow! llie yell loudU. The sound is a lamiliar one. Some maj netic loice draws a Duke man awa iidm lii liook . down ihe stairs and into the cold. A lifiht mist rains from the sky. The moon in the liare trees aliovc (he clusl ' red towers shines pale on the sharpK cul rock . The chow man. Iiand in his pockets, stands heiorc his sandwich- laden cart in ihe shadows ol the arch. We iiot roasi heel lonii;ht. ice cream sand- wiches, milk, apples, and oatmeal cookies. 1iat ll it he? The student tumhles amon-i the ciianiie in liis pocket. Make it two ice cream sandwiches, an apple, and milk. A hungry crowd is gathering. Much later the voice of the chow man is heard again, hawking the remnants of his wares in the hall. Then there is the rattle of many wheels on the stone walks below and silence. . . . The clock strikes forcefully once again. The pictures of Duke fade and we stand facing the huge timepiece. The hlack hands spin rajjidly forward. The speed is somewhat dizzying. We are not ready to let Time race Lack to the present. We try to take hold of the hands and check the speed. Our hodies, however, are no longer suhject to our will. Our arms are paralyzed; they hang inertly at our sides. As the hours fly hy the glowing numliers on the face of the clock seem to diminish in brightness. We try to recall the scenes snatched from our col- lege life but cannot grasp them distinct! . The sharp outlines in our minds are being erased. We close our eyes and it is a long time before we open them. The clock is still there; the time is correct; the ticking is regular. We stretch and breathe deeply. . . . On West it was a newspoper; on East it was knitting — anything to pass the time we spent in line doy after day to get our Union meal. 28
