A booth will be set up today and tomorrow in the student lounge to accept current Catholic books from students willing to donate them- for student use on a semester or yearly basis.

Read an extra book for every Get a 3-point average. Stop making New Year's rcsolu- Rcsolutions standing in a row, will reak them? Oh No no on six, musn't lose time; I take elevator and then there are nine. le cut day and I'm going to be I take the El and there now ight. Wrote a theme on Ernest Bevin, who Stopped the Music, and they now number seven. Assigned a term paper and put in a fix, I go to the library and then there are six.
