KU Women Cuddle, Pamper Stuffed Pets
By Donna Engle
In the wee hours of the morning mass movements often occur in many chambers at Gertrude Sellards Pearson. Myriads of stuffed animals are moved from bed to floor, chairs, tables, windows, lamps, or waste paper baskets.
BARBARA GRESSER and DRUNKS and DEE DEE DAWSON and HARRY the APE
Stuffed animals are great comforters to a woman. She may secretly tell them her newest problem. She may hug them, sleep with them, or cry on their soft shoulders.
Dee Dee Dawson, Stockton, Calif,
freshman, owns a bed which looks
like a menagerie. On her bedspread
are a green and yellow frog, a white
and green monkey holding a baby,
Harry the Ape, Skimmy horse, Pooh
Bear and a mama kangaroo and her
baby.
Girls Cuddle Ape
"My favorite pet is Big Ape because he's so cuddly," said Miss Dawson. The one I like least is my roommate's frog because he's such an icky green."
"Harry scares everybody at first. But, when the girls pick him up, they can't resist him."
Miss Dawson doesn't sleep with her pets because she's afraid that she might smash them or kick them out of bed.
Diane Reamon, Topeka freshman,
has an assortment of 33 stuffed
pets, most of which have come from
out-of-state.
She uses her big yellow and brown spotted droopy dog for a pillow and her two floppy dogs for pajama storage.
Miss Reamon has been collecting stuffed animals for five years. She became particularly interested in them during her freshman year at Washburn University in Topeka where it was the fad to give stuffed animals as party favors.
