A moment of tenseness, a surging hope, it ' s in. A wave of sound surging up, up, until it diminishes into the steady noise of a big crowd. A basketball game, and a place to yell your lungs out and nobody cares . . . nobody hears. The smell of popcorn, and apples sail past, Mono- gram Club doing the sell- ing. A covey of cheer- leaders darting here and there alternately whipping the crowd into a frenzy of action, and subduing the excitement upon a sign from the referees. Ath- letes, a little desperate with effort. Sweat and the smell of it. Discourage- ment, and a misplay, we ' re going to lose . . . fifteen bucks down the drain, have to win it back in a card game. No, wait, they tied . . . another basket . . . we win. A last shout for victory and a struggle to beat everyone else to the door. What is so silent as a gym void of its people. The hollow thwack of the bleachers as they are shoved back into place. Empty pop bottles, candy wrappers . . . the janitor sweeping. The players leave ... a slap on the back, a laugh . . . good game, boys. The broom closet closed, quiet except for the faint jingle of keys. The exit light glows red . . . empty. 13

A crowd is an interesting and curious thing. What makes people gather to- gether? Could it be a political rally, a lynching? In this case it ' s probably just another initiation . . . but make your own guesses. A student body president . . . steals a torch and away he runs. Chris filched the torch from North Dakota State col- lege during their Homecoming cere- monies. The torch is probably as im- portant a relic to them as the Rooter King is to SDSC, and if past perform- ances can be cited as an example they ' ll be hot for revenge next year. 12

pr ia M »H f J :4 The campus seen from a different angle . . . through the library window. A long, hard struggle over the books. A pounding head and addled brain. A view like this should be refreshing to anyone who doesn ' t enjoy study as he should when he is paying to do it. w 14
