A breezy little article in the North Dakota State University newspaper encouraged students to "zip" to the mining town of Zap, N.D. (pop. 300) for a Mother's Day "Zap-Out." Sure enough, late last week columns of collegians began rolling down Zap's unpaved main thoroughfare, their cars emblazoned with signs readiag ZAP OR BUST. Mayor Norman Fuchs, sporting a ZAP N.D.
