prize entry in the Academy of American Poets con-
test. Kenny is a senior in the Literary College.
Conqueror
By KATHLEEN KENNY
In Paris there is a column
of a thousand melted down cannons
with Napoleon in Roman robes
molesting the peak.
His battles tread the circumference.
A part of you is that column.
The same truth, hard and straight,
the same battles, final defeat.
Blood threads the raven's beak
as he picks the bones of battlefield corpses.
Teeth of women in white shred bird flesh;
enamel shines at the split of brass shields
the split of dark chests.
You are not the warrior
leaping one hundred feet in the air,
spreading gray matter on armor.
With horror, women sigh at his raised sword.
Through your strategies, the battle is
frozen in its formula,
repeatedly,
until you believe yourself to be
a man of iron.
Snubstit utes

Once upon a time, sugar and
ham were staples on many
American tables. But endlessly
rising prices have forced all of
us to look for cheaper-if oc-
casionally less desireable-sub-
stitutes.
Here are three recipes which
combine lower market basket;
cost with surprisingly good
taste-and convenience.
In this recipe the ham is!
teamed with homemade unthick-
ened tomato sauce and eggs
and baked in shirred-egg dishes
or similar shallow individual
utensils. It tastes good for
brunch, lunch or supper and is
convenient because the sauce
may be made ahead and the
dish assembled quiokly just be-r
fore baking.
French bread or popovers are
equally good with Creole Ham
and Eggs. If you serve it for
brunch, fresh fruit will make a
refreshing second course. If it's
on a 1inch or supper melt, fol-
low it with a green salad and
have fresh fruit and cheese for
dessert.

body else in my own work,"
Heller said. "I stole the idea
from T. S. Eliot." He claimed
death scenes in Catch-22 were
based on similar passages in
Shakespeare's King Lear.
Midway through the reading,
Heller introduced "my instant
Ann Arbor theatre" - six
Speech department volunteers
who joined him onstage for a
ten-minute scene from the
stage version of Catch-22, with
the author playing his own
character, Ex-Private First
Class Wintergreen.
Weller will lecture today at
noon in the Pendleton Arts
Center of the Michigan Union.
He also may tour area book-
stores to autograph copies of
Something Happened.
