When tradition and modern technology come
together in one harmonious design, the creation
can be worthy of a Shakespeare. So. rhapsodize
over the Hi There® sandal, a sophisticated
achievement that caresses your foot in flattering
contours. Anatomically constructed of supple
leathers to perform gracefully and flatter the leg,
the Hi There® is truly a poet’s delight. And, what's
more, it is probably the most comfortable high-
heeled shoe you’ll ever wear.

Army was demonstrated last
Saturday by a group of determined
students who managed to see the
final minutes of the Texas Teeh
game — despite being stranded for
more than five hours on a broken-
down bus 30 miles east of Abilene.
THE BUS trip to Lubbock was
chartered by the Aggie Club,
through a program that provides
students interested in supporting
A&M athletics with transportation
to away games.
“About 1:30, the bus broke down
and coasted to the side of the road
like we had run out of gas, said
Warren Neeley, a senior manage
ment major. “The bus driver
thought the radiator was overheat
ing."
“Everyone was upset, but we
kept our sense of humor by coming
up with ideas about what we could
do to the bus, said Clark
Whiteside, a senior Moses Halt | C
