SARAH LIEPPMAN Her eyes glow like sparks of fire. If you have never met Sally since you came to Robidoux, you have certainly lost out on something great. It's worth paging her, just to see her dark, brown eyes and the mis- chievous twinkle in them. Her ambition is to be an expert stenographer-and never worry. We didn't know she did the latter anyway.
