While tho two colleges are considered rivals by most peoplo Anne ha found that they are really very friendly rivals At other times Anno can frequently bo found in one of Clamor's tower rooms knitting soft mittens or socks, or reading one of her many currently popular magazines which all the girls like to share As a little practice for her business career Anno has had chargo of selling both tho RUBY and tho I R C Quarterly If her success here is any indication ol what is to come.
