Dear Akadama Mama,
I was caught in your can't-hurt--ne-and-
sorry-if-you-scared-me mouse trap. And
,you'll be pleased to know I wasn't hurt or
anymore scared than someone being
trapped in an elevator overnight. Barbara
Joy, the lady who caught me and a
mouse's best friend, has beer making
me the drinks on the recipe card you sent
along. They sure are good and I like them

but getting along in a people world gives
me a deep thirst so please send me a
whole bunch more.

Dear Rov.
Sorry for the delay. But Vern, my friend and
goldfish, got his tank water all over your
return address. So the only way to send you
more recipes was through this ad.

student regent bill

more student participation in
decision - making at universi-I
ties. He said that chances areI
good that a well-qualified" stu-1
dent may be nominated by one
of the political parties in the
76 election.
"The 19~4 election results
show a willingness to nominateI
and elect younger people to allI
states offices," stated Bursley.
He pointed out that a student j
was elected to the Wayne State
University governing board this
year and will take office in
January.
Bullard said that "the gover-
nor will be under pressure to,
begin appointing students to theI
governing boards of some of the
state s universities. At present,
the boards of the University,
Wayne State and Michigan State
University are chosen in state-
wide elections, while the boards'

are appointed directly by the
governor.
Bursley explained that nearly
30 states have laws at present
that allow students to sit on the
governing boards of universi-
ties. He said this information
showing that student regents
were accepted in other states
was an instrumental factor in
convincing senators to support
the bill.
"When they (the senators)
heard the idea had a good track
record, many of them changed
their minds," Bursley stated.
Bullard said that he favors
a system that would make stu-
dent membership on the Board
of Regents mandatory. He sug-
gested that at least three of the
board members be students,
and be elected by the studenti
body, rather than the entire
electorate.
Both Bullard and Bursley ad-
mitted, however, that imple-
mentation of any such measure
is "far in the future."

WHAT IS DOWN? Down comes only from geese and ducks. It is
a light fluffy cluster containing no quill, which originates from
the underside of the bird. It is cellular in construction, and the
many "arms" of a down cluster have no direction. Thus down is
free to move about and expand in any and all directions.
As an insulation material, down is very compact and resilient.
Itcan be stuffed into a small bag and will pop back to its original
thickness. Other insulating materials fatigue quicker and lose
their insulating ability sooner.
WHY IS DOWN USED FOR WARMTH? Down is by far the most
effective insulator available for use in cold weather coats. Its
virtues are universally known and accepted by mountaineers and
wilderness travelers. Three principal virtues are warmth, com-
pactness and weight.
Down has the ability to fluff up and create a "dead air space
called loft. When the space is filled with down, not compressed
or restricted, the area has maximum loft. This "loft" acts to trap
and hold the warmth of the person wearing the down garment.,
The lightweight ripstop nylon shells of most down coats and vests
insures maximum loft for maximum warmth.
