both students and alumni the Jve represents the beauty, grace, and social atmosphere that the University of Mississippi is known for. It separates Ole Miss from the cluttered campuses of other schools and gives us a refreshing and spacious way of life. With the arrival of September comes the changing of leaves and football sea- son. Games at Vaught-Hemmingway- signal the transformation of the Grove into a convention place for Rebel fans of all ages. Cars, vans and campers blanket the Grove along with vast amounts of food and drink. The memory of Home- coming in the Grove will never be for- gotten by any Ole Miss student, and many alumni return each year to par- ticipate in this special occasion. Stillness falls upon the Grove during winter, and the bare trees wait patiently for warm weather to give them new life. The winter browns turn to spring rain- bows as the flowers and trees burst into bloom. This is the Grove at its lovliest. No matter what other changes occur, the Grove will always symbolize the beauty and spirit of Ole Miss. From gerneration to generation, the Grove will remain the beauty of the University of Mississippi. by Kerry Rice 10 Opening

Oxford gets a facelift: . new buildings are constructed; sports facilities are added; recreational centers are founded. The year was no different. Fast food places got new competition from the much awaited establishment of Burger King. Mexican food lovers welcomed the arrival of Mama T ' s and of course, Taco Bell. Some of the other food additions were Subway shop and Gar- den Deli. A new road connecting Jackson A v- enue directly with Fraternity Row is Hearing completion. This will give driv- ers a short-cut to the Oxford Mall. Within the Ole Miss campus, the new Physical Acoustics Center had its ground breaking ceremony in the fall, and sports fans cherished the construction of the new baseball stadium. The University ' s new supercomputer was also installed this year. A warehouse is being built behind Kincannon Hall to store excess dorm furniture. Ever-growing Oxford blends the new with the old. While nothing can diminish the majesty of the Lyceum, Rowan Oak and other vintage institutions, newer ad- ditions only add to the dazzle and glory of this ever-resplendant small college town.
