Latin-American Dictatorships Losing Strength

stil lurns...
or may we offer a minority opinion?
The great, frenetic rush is on! It's text-book time at the
University and the "campus Moloch" must be served.
The great books, the dreams and visions of writers and
rebels, the magnificent volumes of art and wisdom, and
even the merely pleasant books which beguile and enter-
tain have all been put away.

Except at Bob Marshall's . .

Here the approach is otherwise. . and unique. Because
of our approach to bookselling and because of our very
spacious store our huge and wonderful stock of general
books has not been displaced. Still on the scene are com-
fortable chairs scattered throughout our store and in
front of our constantly-burning fireplace.
And while we will be busier than usual during textbook
time-for we will sell some texts too-the atmosphere
continues to be relaxed, quiet, conducive to browsing,
and we trust even contributive to thinking.

So our minority opinion is this . .

Relax, take it easy, don't get panicked. Look around a
bit, take your time. Appraise carefully not only the as-
signed texts, but also the suggested reading lists, the
collateral books, and the marvelous paperbound titles
which augment and supplement, which implement and
expand. The required text is just that, a required book.
But the "open sesame" to the world of knowledge, to
excitement and creativity, is in the whole wonderful
world of books . . . not merely in a basic text.
And all this should mean at least one trip to Bob Mar-
sh'all's now, and many, many joyous browsing sessions
here within the next few weeks. We claim that browsing
at Bob Marshall's is an essential and integral part of
your expending university experience. This is a legiti-
mate claim now-during text-book time-and always.
You will not be pressured here. Even during the "rush"

you will not be PROCESSED at Bob Marshall's. You will
be helped, served, and conceivably even challenged. Our
full-time, professional staff of "real book people" are
at yourservice . . . but automatically you will be let
alone that you might look around if that is your pleas-
ure.
The moral of course .. . all advertisements have a moral
is to come to Bob Marshall's now .. . and then come
again and again.
