The Olympic entourage dresses grubby. ★ Hotels ★ Resorts They wear either cameras or press passes or both around their necks. Many of them, and not the Canadians, wear leisure suits (a sass testament to American taste). ★ Tours AND ALMOST everyone I've seen wears track shoes.

SUA ⊗ Maupintour travel service ONE BUS DRIVER I talked with was ambivalent when I asked him whether he was driving. "Yes and no," he said. "For me, I like the money. But I think Mr. Drapson (Mayor of Washington) can do better." The money is plenty. I spoke with another bus driver on the way home quite late in the day. "I'll just go to work." 843-1211/900 Mass./Nillcrest/The Mails/KU Union “It's American money,” she snapped, He, too, seemed irritated. I asked him why the foreign money was trouble. He just smiled, shrugged his shoulders and said "No, not at all. I just charge you three per cent." People who don't have Canadian currency pay for it, literally. Places accept American money for a price. I couldn't get Canadian currency until Monday morning, so I had to pay a three-to-five per cent exorbitance on every thing I bought over the weekend. ian dollars that day. He was working overtime on a Sunday during the Olympics, three criteria the city of Montreal rewards with time-and-three-quarter pays.

I WENT INTO a store and was waited on by a most engaging French-Canadian woman. When I told her I had only American money, she turned surly. She threw my American $10 bill at the man who rang up the sales. I am constantly amazed at the bilingual way of life here. I haven't met a language barrier yet. In phrasing a question, my tendency is to say it in slow, distinct English, anticipating that the other person will have a difficult time understanding me. It is with a certain amount of embarrassment that I hear a repent that goes like: "Ok, you have been stupid." I took four high school years of French, however, I am reluctant to try it around the world.
