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. Rover 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.

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' Bead and Use Daily Cilassifieds : of all other schools and colleges 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." GIVE BLOOD TO KEEP A GOOD THING GOING. $10 per donation to buy gas.

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.
