Ity DAVID GINN
I sat there, on the Univer
sity Bus, amongst a crowd of
half-soaked people, mostly hoys
and girls—and I was thinking.
Thinking about how I ran 100
feet through the rain chasing
the bus, without an umbrella
(me without an umbrella, not
the bus), and how I banged
on the window for 2.7 seconds
beforo the vehicle finally
stopped and let me in through
its double doors.
No sooner had I begun to
think than we came to a
screeching halt between the
Physics Building and the GGM.
That’s when it really began.
All chances of thinking floated
away.
The next thing I knew some
girl was asking the bus driver,
"Do you pay now?”, and he was
saying “yes" and she was
moaning "oh, no,” and reach
ing into her pocketbook and
coming up with a nickel.
Outside, simultaneously al
most, another girl was saying
to a friend, “All I have Is a
dollar.” And her friend was
explaining that bus drivers do
give change.
Then those umbrellas outside 1
began to fold up and come In
side, carried by people, who
filled the remaining seats and
still kept coming. . . .
"Let’s move to the back of
the bus—” A masculine voice.
" A wwwright. Awwright,.”
Mixed voices.
We were moving again,
bouncing across the bridge,
slowing down momentarily at
Memorable Memorial Hall.
