The CO-OP
Speaking of Twins—
You Can’t Beat
Ye Towne and
Campa Shoppes
The. cuisines of these twin confectioneries
are known by college students to be par
excellent. In fact so much better than the
average are they that nearly every one nat
urally turns toward them when hungry. When
down town or when on the campus, the first
thought is for a hasty trip to one of our
shoppes.
fjj What wonder that the Campa Shoppe is
the center of social life of the University.
No one enjoys eating a la solo. Laughter,
clever chats, and the latest campus news are
all a part of your college life.
(jj Don’t worry about where to go for food if
you happen to be down town. Ye Towne
Shoppe is conveniently located in the center
of the business district. It has the same good
cuisine and reputation of its sister shoppe.
