A blanket of ice covers al
most every square foot of street
and walk on campus. It was
snow once, but 12,000 feet have
pounded it into a thick, ridged
booby trap. The secret of pre
serving your anatomy intact is
to walk in the hollows between
the ridges. That way there is no
place to slip tt, I.' you step
on the . ridges you can always
slip into a hollow and break
your ankle.
There is a way to avoid skinned
knees' and skipped classes caused
by fear of falling on the ice. A
chemical has been developed to
remove ice from highways that
maintainer blades cannot cut
through.
