It 's boun d to happen. Next year
or t he year af ter tha t , some-
one from the Dean of Students '
office will announce that BSC' s
initial experiments with the passfall option have failed and thus
inquiry into the effectivity of the
sty stem has been terminated .
This failure will inadvertently
be attributed to student apath y,
to lack of student respon se. Unfortunatel y, we have no other
choice than to respond in this
man ner. Students are not going
to respond favorabl y to the system bec ause th e syst e m was
create d , per haps unconsciously ,
to discoura ge students from using
it.
The pass-fail syste m , in the
* most idealistic sense , was crea ted to discourage good-grade orientation so the student is encour aged to learn and make general
application of that learning in situations other than final exams
(in att empting to teach , for example.) Whe n a student is "hung
up " on grades he really doesn't
give a damn about learn ing, he
cares only about his abilities
in r egurgitating useless facts
for exams.
In its attem pts to destroy
grade- horniness , the pass^fail
syste m is a noble experiment
and worthy of study and support.
However , stud y does not grant
the ©valuator the right to alter
the original syste m to appease
opposition. We would not ask a
typist seeking work to display
her abilities by typing with her
hands tied behind her back. Why ,
then , does the administration ask
The Molly Maguires
thi s system to work wi th its
hands tied .
The restrictive system devised and instituted at BSC cannot
serve as an evaluation of the
usability of the pass-fall system
on another scale , for a number
of reasons .
First , students are only allowed to use the option in elective
ing good gr ades . Also, with the
numb er of subj ects required for
gr aduation few students have
more than three elective courses
allotted. Most Junior s and Seniors used their few elective s
before pass-fail was instituted.
Pa ss fail , then , is not particuL *
arly useful for elective courses .
Second , the aim of the syste m
as previously stated , is to facilitate
learning
and de-emphasize grades . It would seem ,
t hen , that the greatest emphasis
on learning should be in the
major field. However , in the
syste m used at BSC , pass-fall in
major course s will be last to be
considered .
Finally , the concept of a restricted pass-fail system seems
almost paradoxical. The system '
was created to replace grades ,
not to supplement them. It can
not be expected to work when
that which it attem pts to de-empha size is allowed to hold its
or iginal import. BSC's pass-fail
system will die , like many other
educational innovations , because
no one helped it live. I wonder
what the result of the open dorm
experiment will be.

Dear Editor ,

What motivated you to learn in

that you are more intere sted in

wonder about pr ofs like: Sylvester , Schwimmer , Witmer , Youse,

W hat I' m tryin g to say is that

As Auditor General Casey risked the crie s of political opportunism he knew would come by
working hard to keep the Shaffer

he even sur prised some of the

Violence. What does tha t word
mean to you? Are you excited or
repu lsed by what it means? Is
it beautifu l, ugly, good , bad , exdepress ing? What
hilarating,
does it mean? Is it somethi ng
near to or far remote from your
life ? Just what is violence?
I» m not real ly interes ted in
t he ans wers to these quest ions ,
but I want you to keep them in
mind as you read this art icle and
when you see the movie I' m a bout
to review. I'd like you to see the
effect this movie will have on
your ideas concern ing violence. Only you will ever know
the extent to which this movie
changes your opinions, but allow
me to venture a few predictions.
If the thought of violence excites
you , perhaps you'll be sobered.
If you think it depressing, you
won 't find it any more enjoyable , but at least see that at
times it is necessary. Finally
and above all, if you thin k violence only marks incidents far
removed from your life , you will
see that at times , it can be quite
near.
RIGHT NEXT DOOR
That 's the most strikin g thing
about this movie , "The Molly
Maguires. " It's a movie about
people who lived ri ght here , next
door to our "friend ly......hill."
The closeness to us in time and
plac e make the events portrayed
all the more dramat ic and powerful.
A few years ago , P aramount
Pictures bought the rights to
a story concerning the violent
actions that a renegade grou p of
Irish coal miners known as the
Molly Maguires directed against
the hard coal barons who exploited them. Paramount restored the little village of Eckley near Hazleton to its 1870's
app eareance and moved in its
crew for shooting during the summer of 1968. Included in the group
were the stars of the picture:
Sean C onnery , Richard Harri s
and Samantha Eggar. Naturally
this caused quite a bit of excitement in the H az leton area and
the story of the filming was front
p age new s for three months (it
was also the subject of thousands
of rum ors th at swep t th e area ,
like fer instance: "He y, I have a
friend who knows this guy whose
brother-in-law ' s sister is an extra in the movie andshe said.... " .
An yw ay , afte r a whole summer of
this , I» m pr etty sure that every one was just a little sick of the
whole thing and I for one wasn 't
t oo hot to see something I pr actically knew inside out . But it
took Paramount a year and a half
to finish the film and I supp ose
the wait whetted my curiosity
so I got to the theatre last week
an d was surprised and impres sed by what they had done.
W hat impressed me about "The
M olly Mag uires ' 1? Well , in the
t l rst place , it was a technically
excellent picture. It takes a lot

I know , you didn 't get there
earl y, and the test was In front
of you before you could take a
deep breath— not that the stagnant
gym air , rem iniscent of nervous
sweat , encoura ged taking deep
breaths— but you didn 't have time
for breathing and looking ar ound ,
things like that.
But that guy on your left , he
reall y was awful . His eyes hung
so low that the hair on his toes
must give him the same problem
long eyelashes give normal
people— hairy eyeballs . And It
was difficult to determine whether that was his lower Up or a
double chin dropp ing over his
belt buckle . Strange . Very
Strange .
Then you glanced at the shap ely
gal on your righ t. Ugh . She looked j ust like the guy on your left.
Must have the same haird resser .
THE TEST
Then , the horrors around you
were subjected to disreg ard—
the hor r or In front of you was at

Quest ion 1. This Is your comprehenslve question and will be

The camera work was exceL.
lent. Director Mar tin Ritt teamed up with Hollywood 's best 'old
gu ar d* camerama n , Jame s Wong
Howe (they also did Paul Newman 's "Hud" and "Hombre ")
for "T he Mollies". I would have
never believed that I could be so
impressed by a Pennsylvania sun
ris ing over a coal breaker or a
store going up in flames.
I must also mention the music.
I don't have to say anything about
Henr y Mancini , the name speaks
for itself. But I must mention this
song he used. I don't know if It 's
the tude to an old Irish song (and
I wish someone would help me on
this) or is it somethin g new he
wr ote for the picture . Anyway ,
it' s a hau nting little tune that is
heard in the first scene and
keeps rea ppearing all throu gh
the movie. After the first ten
minutes I was humming it and I
continued to hum all through the
movie , but when I got outside and
tried to recall it , it was gone,.
It ' s that kind of song.
CONNERY AND HARRIS
Secondly , there was the act ing.
I didn 't notice any Academy
Award performances but it was ,
nevertheless , good. Sean C onner y
as Jack Kehoe , determined leader
of the Mollies , has finally shaken
off Jame s Bond . He 's a fine actor and I suppose it's a good
thin g he didn 't sink any farther
into the Bond image (although I
missed him terribl y in "On Her
Majesty ' s Secret Service). In
"M ollies" he sort of under plays
his role . He isn't a fiery, wild
eyed leader of men and part time
orator. Inste ad , he plays Kehoe
quiet , determined and driven by
some force that is always right
there behind him yet never quit e
clear until he lets it break loose
in the "company store fire "
scene.
Richard Harris , another fine
English actor who plays Jame s
McPharlan , t he infi ltrator wh o
turns the Mollies in , is good as
a mine r and Molly. I was disappoin ted though , by his dete ctive. He played that scene In
C onner y ' s cell as if McPhar lan had enjoyed what he had
done. McPharlan had to feel some
re gret b ut I , f or one , didn 't see
any. Samanth a Eggar was a ver y
beautiful mine r 's dau ghter , I 'll
venture no farther than that.
VIOLENT STORY
Finally , there was the stor y;
definitely the movie 's stron g
point and the aspect of the film
that Impressed me most. And
the most impressive aspect of
t he story was its underl ying
theme of violenc e and the part it
played in the lives of these men.
This the me of violence becomes apparen t In the first scene ;
Jack Kehoe and his Molly friends ,
calml y setting charges and walking home fro m work while the

This violence soon become s apparent to Jame s McPharlan , a

In the old days baseball was
king . Sir Arthur Conan Doyle ,
creator of detective Sherlock
Holmes, predicted the game
-would "...sweep Englan d as it has
done in the United States . " Playwri ght George Bernard Shaw descr ibed John McGraw as "the
Most Remarkable Man in America." And Henr y L . M ench enwrote
that " ...one sport my f ather was
really interested in was baseball
— and for that he was a fantatic. "
Those were the old days and
many knowledg able baseball men
consider those days as anci ent
history. Because today America 's national pastime is beset
by a number of probl ems which
- threaten to ruin the game . Although some of these questions
are of little significance now,
they threaten baseball 's future .
The first of the pr oblems is
the curr ent trend of leagues to
expand the number of teams .
New franchises established in
1969 were San Diego and Montreal in the National League and
Seattle and Kansas City in the
American.
These expansion
teams tend to flounder in the
depths of their leagues with the
castoff players fro m the rest
of the league . Look at the Mets
from 1962 to 1968. They were
either last or next to last . They
drew the fans but in any other city
the Mets would have moved after
two years .
This season twenty seven million fans paid to see major league
baseball games — an increase of
four million over 1968. But in
th e A mer ican league, discountin g
the two expansion franchises ,
was eight hundred thousand under
their 1968 total . This can be
partially attributed to the run *
away race in the east by the
Orioles. But in the year of the
hitter , which was preceded by
one of the worst hittin g dro ughts
in baseball history, the crowds
should have piled on top 'of each
other with the unlimited action in
1969. But contrary to this , except
f or a f ew f ortunate c lubs , many
teams lost mone y at the turnstiles last year.
The miracle Mets led the pack
with 2 , 175,000 paid attendence :
The American League leader was
the Boston Red Sox with 1,833, 000.
H owever , the low side of the
scale was filled with small num bers in big cities . Only one of

teams (Giants and Oakland Athletics) were also on the list of

I t seems that in the "swinging sixties " the affluent and the
poor have more to satiate th eir
taste for enjoyment than a basebal l game . The slow — speed
games and, until this year , lack
of action , had driven the fans to
other arenas of action.
Today, baseball players are
competing fnr the public 's fancy
with football heroes who receive
six hund red thousand dollar bonuses, basketball players who
command one million dollar packages just for signing contracts
and golfers such as Arn old Pal mer who has avera ged eleven dollars for every stroke during his
pr ofessional career and has &
payroll of over a million dollars
for his employees .

wordl y attitude some narrow minted people take .
The greatest thing that has hap pened to me yince hitting college
is a complete re-evaluation of
myself and the -world around me.
Among other things , as a member
of an affluent society that doesn 't
have to worry about petty things
like food , clothing, shelter , retirement or anything, I have taken
to conc erning myself with the finer points of life — ju st enjoying
it as much as possible while maintaining progress toward a materialistic goal (status , wealth ,
etc. ) .
The entire point I am tryin g to
make rests upon the differen ce
between this concept and the
stratification of "fighting for
points '' instead of absorbin g the
lesson. I could almost give a
damn if someone who didn 'twork
as hard as I , got the sam e grade .
Some of the lar ger universities reflect this attitude of putting oneself above grade s by institutin g
pass-fail
systems.
Should it become necessary to
judge ability or stratif y students
for job selection there are always things like graduate record
exams , competence tests , or the
good old personal interview .
I further hold the attitude ,
thou gh I am sure it can easily
be disputed , that under the present system , you will get cut as
many breaks as you will get
scr ewed ¦= so it all avera ges
out , and your diploma won 't look
any different no matter what .

But it can't be , it must bs a lie.
Why would he risk his life to go

could Mary Raines love him?
Yet there must be an informer .
How else would the police know

Even if a student may not be
able to work for the 45 minutes ,
this time could be put toward
relaxation , studyin g or sleeping. This time should definitely
not be used to just stand in a
lobby and wait and wait and wait!
The final policy to be analyzed
is the "Non Transferable Meal
Ticket . " Since there is a number
for each meal then the ticket
could not be passed for extra
meals , only for those that are
("supposedly ") paid for . If a
student does not eat a meal, he
should be allowed to let his friend
eat that meal. This is just another instance of gettin g what
you pay for . If we buy tickets
for a dance , "Bi g Name Enter tainment" or a mov ie , we can
give them to our friends . Why
can 't we give away our meal

It 's boun d to happen. Next year
or t he year af ter tha t , some-
one from the Dean of Students '
office will announce that BSC' s
initial experiments with the passfall option have failed and thus
inquiry into the effectivity of the
sty stem has been terminated .
This failure will inadvertently
be attributed to student apath y,
to lack of student respon se. Unfortunatel y, we have no other
choice than to respond in this
man ner. Students are not going
to respond favorabl y to the system bec ause th e syst e m was
create d , per haps unconsciously ,
to discoura ge students from using
it.
The pass-fail syste m , in the
* most idealistic sense , was crea ted to discourage good-grade orientation so the student is encour aged to learn and make general
application of that learning in situations other than final exams
(in att empting to teach , for example.) Whe n a student is "hung
up " on grades he really doesn't
give a damn about learn ing, he
cares only about his abilities
in r egurgitating useless facts
for exams.
In its attem pts to destroy
grade- horniness , the pass^fail
syste m is a noble experiment
and worthy of study and support.
However , stud y does not grant
the ©valuator the right to alter
the original syste m to appease
opposition. We would not ask a
typist seeking work to display
her abilities by typing with her
hands tied behind her back. Why ,
then , does the administration ask
The Molly Maguires
thi s system to work wi th its
hands tied .
The restrictive system devised and instituted at BSC cannot
serve as an evaluation of the
usability of the pass-fall system
on another scale , for a number
of reasons .
First , students are only allowed to use the option in elective
ing good gr ades . Also, with the
numb er of subj ects required for
gr aduation few students have
more than three elective courses
allotted. Most Junior s and Seniors used their few elective s
before pass-fail was instituted.
Pa ss fail , then , is not particuL *
arly useful for elective courses .
Second , the aim of the syste m
as previously stated , is to facilitate
learning
and de-emphasize grades . It would seem ,
t hen , that the greatest emphasis
on learning should be in the
major field. However , in the
syste m used at BSC , pass-fall in
major course s will be last to be
considered .
Finally , the concept of a restricted pass-fail system seems
almost paradoxical. The system '
was created to replace grades ,
not to supplement them. It can
not be expected to work when
that which it attem pts to de-empha size is allowed to hold its
or iginal import. BSC's pass-fail
system will die , like many other
educational innovations , because
no one helped it live. I wonder
what the result of the open dorm
experiment will be.

Two heavyweight contenders

The* Democratic contender s are

Millionaire industri alist Mil.
ton Shapp certainly has the monetary advantage but he faces
some problems that money may

Shapp 's money and allegations

1966, and his current strateg y
seems to be one of, "it wor ked

may very well be the albatross
Shapp keeps mentioning , only
it hangs over his own head.
Since the ' '66 elections , Bob

C asey dispelled " machine candi date "
allegations
directed
against him , in a most effective
manner. He stumped the state ,
campaigning for nompartisan obj ectives like a better state constitu tion . He voted for the minor ,

As Auditor General Casey risked the crie s of political opportunism he knew would come by
working hard to keep the Shaffer

he even sur prised some of the

Violence. What does tha t word
mean to you? Are you excited or
repu lsed by what it means? Is
it beautifu l, ugly, good , bad , exdepress ing? What
hilarating,
does it mean? Is it somethi ng
near to or far remote from your
life ? Just what is violence?
I» m not real ly interes ted in
t he ans wers to these quest ions ,
but I want you to keep them in
mind as you read this art icle and
when you see the movie I' m a bout
to review. I'd like you to see the
effect this movie will have on
your ideas concern ing violence. Only you will ever know
the extent to which this movie
changes your opinions, but allow
me to venture a few predictions.
If the thought of violence excites
you , perhaps you'll be sobered.
If you think it depressing, you
won 't find it any more enjoyable , but at least see that at
times it is necessary. Finally
and above all, if you thin k violence only marks incidents far
removed from your life , you will
see that at times , it can be quite
near.
RIGHT NEXT DOOR
That 's the most strikin g thing
about this movie , "The Molly
Maguires. " It's a movie about
people who lived ri ght here , next
door to our "friend ly......hill."
The closeness to us in time and
plac e make the events portrayed
all the more dramat ic and powerful.
A few years ago , P aramount
Pictures bought the rights to
a story concerning the violent
actions that a renegade grou p of
Irish coal miners known as the
Molly Maguires directed against
the hard coal barons who exploited them. Paramount restored the little village of Eckley near Hazleton to its 1870's
app eareance and moved in its
crew for shooting during the summer of 1968. Included in the group
were the stars of the picture:
Sean C onnery , Richard Harri s
and Samantha Eggar. Naturally
this caused quite a bit of excitement in the H az leton area and
the story of the filming was front
p age new s for three months (it
was also the subject of thousands
of rum ors th at swep t th e area ,
like fer instance: "He y, I have a
friend who knows this guy whose
brother-in-law ' s sister is an extra in the movie andshe said.... " .
An yw ay , afte r a whole summer of
this , I» m pr etty sure that every one was just a little sick of the
whole thing and I for one wasn 't
t oo hot to see something I pr actically knew inside out . But it
took Paramount a year and a half
to finish the film and I supp ose
the wait whetted my curiosity
so I got to the theatre last week
an d was surprised and impres sed by what they had done.
W hat impressed me about "The
M olly Mag uires ' 1? Well , in the
t l rst place , it was a technically
excellent picture. It takes a lot

Reme.nber that raunch y fellow
who slump ted next to you in the

I know , you didn 't get there
earl y, and the test was In front
of you before you could take a
deep breath— not that the stagnant
gym air , rem iniscent of nervous
sweat , encoura ged taking deep
breaths— but you didn 't have time
for breathing and looking ar ound ,
things like that.
But that guy on your left , he
reall y was awful . His eyes hung
so low that the hair on his toes
must give him the same problem
long eyelashes give normal
people— hairy eyeballs . And It
was difficult to determine whether that was his lower Up or a
double chin dropp ing over his
belt buckle . Strange . Very
Strange .
Then you glanced at the shap ely
gal on your righ t. Ugh . She looked j ust like the guy on your left.
Must have the same haird resser .
THE TEST
Then , the horrors around you
were subjected to disreg ard—
the hor r or In front of you was at
han d.
Quest ion 1. This Is your comprehenslve question and will be
counte d as four -fifths of your
se mester grade .
Discuss the major events of the
mater ial covered , paying close
attent ion to Imp ortant ramlflc a(continue d on page four) '

Paramo unt obviously used both

Eckley, build ing a coal breaker ,
designing costumes and assembling all of the millions of other
things that are necessary for an
authe ntic picture.
The camera work was exceL.
lent. Director Mar tin Ritt teamed up with Hollywood 's best 'old
gu ar d* camerama n , Jame s Wong
Howe (they also did Paul Newman 's "Hud" and "Hombre ")
for "T he Mollies". I would have
never believed that I could be so
impressed by a Pennsylvania sun
ris ing over a coal breaker or a
store going up in flames.
I must also mention the music.
I don't have to say anything about
Henr y Mancini , the name speaks
for itself. But I must mention this
song he used. I don't know if It 's
the tude to an old Irish song (and
I wish someone would help me on
this) or is it somethin g new he
wr ote for the picture . Anyway ,
it' s a hau nting little tune that is
heard in the first scene and
keeps rea ppearing all throu gh
the movie. After the first ten
minutes I was humming it and I
continued to hum all through the
movie , but when I got outside and
tried to recall it , it was gone,.
It ' s that kind of song.
CONNERY AND HARRIS
Secondly , there was the act ing.
I didn 't notice any Academy
Award performances but it was ,
nevertheless , good. Sean C onner y
as Jack Kehoe , determined leader
of the Mollies , has finally shaken
off Jame s Bond . He 's a fine actor and I suppose it's a good
thin g he didn 't sink any farther
into the Bond image (although I
missed him terribl y in "On Her
Majesty ' s Secret Service). In
"M ollies" he sort of under plays
his role . He isn't a fiery, wild
eyed leader of men and part time
orator. Inste ad , he plays Kehoe
quiet , determined and driven by
some force that is always right
there behind him yet never quit e
clear until he lets it break loose
in the "company store fire "
scene.
Richard Harris , another fine
English actor who plays Jame s
McPharlan , t he infi ltrator wh o
turns the Mollies in , is good as
a mine r and Molly. I was disappoin ted though , by his dete ctive. He played that scene In
C onner y ' s cell as if McPhar lan had enjoyed what he had
done. McPharlan had to feel some
re gret b ut I , f or one , didn 't see
any. Samanth a Eggar was a ver y
beautiful mine r 's dau ghter , I 'll
venture no farther than that.
VIOLENT STORY
Finally , there was the stor y;
definitely the movie 's stron g
point and the aspect of the film
that Impressed me most. And
the most impressive aspect of
t he story was its underl ying
theme of violenc e and the part it
played in the lives of these men.
This the me of violence becomes apparen t In the first scene ;
Jack Kehoe and his Molly friends ,
calml y setting charges and walking home fro m work while the
mine th ey have just left explodes ,
This violence soon become s apparent to Jame s McPharlan , a

he found , like all the Immigrants
to Americ a found , that "the
streets
haven 't exactly been
paved with gold." He Is "In itiate d" in a knock down , dra g out

In the old days baseball was
king . Sir Arthur Conan Doyle ,
creator of detective Sherlock
Holmes, predicted the game
-would "...sweep Englan d as it has
done in the United States . " Playwri ght George Bernard Shaw descr ibed John McGraw as "the
Most Remarkable Man in America." And Henr y L . M ench enwrote
that " ...one sport my f ather was
really interested in was baseball
— and for that he was a fantatic. "
Those were the old days and
many knowledg able baseball men
consider those days as anci ent
history. Because today America 's national pastime is beset
by a number of probl ems which
- threaten to ruin the game . Although some of these questions
are of little significance now,
they threaten baseball 's future .
The first of the pr oblems is
the curr ent trend of leagues to
expand the number of teams .
New franchises established in
1969 were San Diego and Montreal in the National League and
Seattle and Kansas City in the
American.
These expansion
teams tend to flounder in the
depths of their leagues with the
castoff players fro m the rest
of the league . Look at the Mets
from 1962 to 1968. They were
either last or next to last . They
drew the fans but in any other city
the Mets would have moved after
two years .
This season twenty seven million fans paid to see major league
baseball games — an increase of
four million over 1968. But in
th e A mer ican league, discountin g
the two expansion franchises ,
was eight hundred thousand under
their 1968 total . This can be
partially attributed to the run *
away race in the east by the
Orioles. But in the year of the
hitter , which was preceded by
one of the worst hittin g dro ughts
in baseball history, the crowds
should have piled on top 'of each
other with the unlimited action in
1969. But contrary to this , except
f or a f ew f ortunate c lubs , many
teams lost mone y at the turnstiles last year.
The miracle Mets led the pack
with 2 , 175,000 paid attendence :
The American League leader was
the Boston Red Sox with 1,833, 000.
H owever , the low side of the
scale was filled with small num bers in big cities . Only one of
the four new teams drew a million spectators , the Montreal
Expo s. One of the four , San
Diego, had the lowest attendance
in either league , 512 ,000. Phila -

delphia , the Chicago White Sox,
and the San Francisco Bay area
teams (Giants and Oakland Athletics) were also on the list of
p oor drawing cards.
I t seems that in the "swinging sixties " the affluent and the
poor have more to satiate th eir
taste for enjoyment than a basebal l game . The slow — speed
games and, until this year , lack
of action , had driven the fans to
other arenas of action.
Today, baseball players are
competing fnr the public 's fancy
with football heroes who receive
six hund red thousand dollar bonuses, basketball players who
command one million dollar packages just for signing contracts
and golfers such as Arn old Pal mer who has avera ged eleven dollars for every stroke during his
pr ofessional career and has &
payroll of over a million dollars
for his employees .

wordl y attitude some narrow minted people take .
The greatest thing that has hap pened to me yince hitting college
is a complete re-evaluation of
myself and the -world around me.
Among other things , as a member
of an affluent society that doesn 't
have to worry about petty things
like food , clothing, shelter , retirement or anything, I have taken
to conc erning myself with the finer points of life — ju st enjoying
it as much as possible while maintaining progress toward a materialistic goal (status , wealth ,
etc. ) .
The entire point I am tryin g to
make rests upon the differen ce
between this concept and the
stratification of "fighting for
points '' instead of absorbin g the
lesson. I could almost give a
damn if someone who didn 'twork
as hard as I , got the sam e grade .
Some of the lar ger universities reflect this attitude of putting oneself above grade s by institutin g
pass-fail
systems.
Should it become necessary to
judge ability or stratif y students
for job selection there are always things like graduate record
exams , competence tests , or the
good old personal interview .
I further hold the attitude ,
thou gh I am sure it can easily
be disputed , that under the present system , you will get cut as
many breaks as you will get
scr ewed ¦= so it all avera ges
out , and your diploma won 't look
any different no matter what .

Why would he risk his life to go

can Jack Kehoe trust him? How
could Mary Raines love him?
Yet there must be an informer .
How else would the police know

nite then he could gain $5.50
per week or $100 per semester .
Even if a student may not be
able to work for the 45 minutes ,
this time could be put toward
relaxation , studyin g or sleeping. This time should definitely
not be used to just stand in a
lobby and wait and wait and wait!
The final policy to be analyzed
is the "Non Transferable Meal
Ticket . " Since there is a number
for each meal then the ticket
could not be passed for extra
meals , only for those that are
("supposedly ") paid for . If a
student does not eat a meal, he
should be allowed to let his friend
eat that meal. This is just another instance of gettin g what
you pay for . If we buy tickets
for a dance , "Bi g Name Enter tainment" or a mov ie , we can
give them to our friends . Why
can 't we give away our meal
tickets for a meal?
