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 can cut By CECILY BROWNSTONE :Associated Press Writer 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.

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.
