>>From: Bob Carlson, aka Mike CLOWES ('54)

It's all over, including the riots in Columbus, OH. A collegiate
national football championship has been decided on the field of
play (except for some die-hard TCU fans). I am of the opinion
that it was decided after the Rose Bowl game when Nike came up
with new uniforms for the Ducks. For what ever reason, the Ducks
were not true to the Green and Gold, and haven't been for some
years.

With the new R-cloud logo on Building 1000, we can only hope the
Bombers hold true to the Green and Gold and certainly not some
funky variations of those colors.

That's my story and I sticking to it.

      Cougs, and Beavs in that order.

Re: Spudnuts

A Guy my brother, David CARSON ('76), works with just found
these. Funny to think there were that many Spudnut Shops at one
time. Thought you might be interested.

Re: nevertowed HB

Thanks for good wishes! Don't recall relaxing with
extraterrestrial math/physics, but your desert drive rambling
reminds me of crossing the high Nevada plateau in late November
while moving to Maryland to begin my intelligence career post-
USAF/UW at NSA in '72. Wolfman came in clear from a San Fran
station, and for a while I got the signal of KJR out of Seattle
(maybe multibounce, but it lasted a long time, so possibly
troposcatter, or is that only LVHF?). I had built a doghouse as
my wife called it (pine frame and interior paneling walls - what
was I thinking?) on the back of my '72 Mazda B1600 and slept in
it in a parking lot in Salt Lake City during the first night
after leaving Sacramento where I had visited a friend. Picked up
a couple whose van broke down 30 miles out of Salt Lake City,
piled some of their clothes in the doghouse and dropped them a
ways out of Denver at an early Christmas party where I was 
well fed. Got them to think about their poor communication and
constant sniping at each other during that lllllooooonnnnngggg
day's drive across UT/NE/WY/CO; each tended to assume the other's
every word was a criticism. Listen to each other, friends, with
charity.
			Regards, ecb3 - from seasonably cold central VA,
			looking forward to a high of 52 by Saturday.

Re: Ohio State

After a long and trial ridden season my Ohio State Buckeyes
proved that this team is indeed worthy of the championship crown!

Now I can turn my attention to the Seahawks.
