- THE HIGHLANDER Cac By A geologist from the University of Utah once described Camel’s Cave, situated in a lofty position just above the “B. L.’,’ as a “defect in the Peter Gillins Do you remember buying clothes for school a few years ago? Your mother would go down to Penney’s and buy you a couple of pairs of levis and two or three shirts. She always bought the levis a couple of sizes too big because they shrank and she hoped you wouldn’t outgrow them. As a result, the first time you wore them you had to roll up the legs so that you had a six-inch cuff, and you fastened your belt so tightly that there were big gathers in the back. Your pant legs rubbed together when you walked so people could hear you. coming half a block away. Buying clothes in high school is quite a different story. Parents have little to do with it. They simply hand you fifty bucks and say, “Here, go buy some clothes.” (Parents reading this article, don’t kid yourself.

All this means is that instead of being waited on by an experienced salesman who knows something about clothes, you’re waited on by a high school kid who is usually a student body officer. They always ask you what school you’re from and whether or not you ski. If you don’t ski and you pick the wrong student body officer, you might as well forget the whole deal and go to Penney’s. To prevent this, each store in town tries to get one student officer from each school. (Underclassmen, keep this in mind when election time comes). The object of the student salesman is to make you as uncomfortable as possible so that you’ll buy the first thing you see and get out of the store as quickly as you can. These salesmen are always dressed in the latest and most expensive clothes. If you walk in dressed in anything that’s more than a week or two old, you feel like a slob.
