Be considerate
On behalf of the University
family housing in the Hast
Campus neighborhood. I would
like to say hello to all the folks
who drive through and park be
tween 13th Avenue and 19th
Avenue and Agate Street and
Villard Street. I would also like
to ask those of you, who need
this reminder to be more con
siderate
Your auto alarms drive us us
beyond irritation. Sometimes
your driving frightens us and
could hurt or kill anyone of our
several hundred children and
pets. Please be especially care
ful around B a.m. and after 2:30
p.m. when our grade schoolers
are out.

with minds filled with uncer
tainties.

Marine Corps was no excep

the night before he was to de
part and after the "1 love yous
and good byes.” the last thing
he asked was please fly the
American flag. Fly it until ev
ery man and woman comes
home from the Middle East to
be with their families.

We are trying to form a sup
port network for all of us left
