...display windows appeared. The dining hall was emptying and study cards were already called in, and the boards covering the Widener steps-they always stood for snow and ice. Snow and ice, Vag mused, ice and glasses. Not too much water, he cautioned. No more lethargic lectures, and endless doodling until the bell rang. Soon the bells would be ringing all the time, and breakfast would move up into afternoon, and weekends would mushroom into whole weeks. Tow whole weeks, in fact.

At the South Boston Boys' Club alone 1500 kids delighted in the old standbys of sawing girls in half, sipping eider, and calling forth taffy apples from a cauldron of goo. This afternoon is the Rutgers game: another squad of 30 leaders will corral a howling 200 anxious to see football played...
