BY WAYOOOOCCOOCO Do I hear the dis- contented mutterings with regard to the condition of the Barn? Or is it just another episOde in the continuin saga of "Someone else must be doing something about it."???? Do I hear any out- raged comments from those radical anti- pollutionists who get so "up-tight" about the ways in which_ overn- ments and ind tries are screwing up the balance of nature in this country? Or maybe they don't consider the Barn worthy of their attention! After all, it is used every day by the students and apart from a few empty coffee cups, chip bags, and ketchup stained paper plates left lying around so it's not really a major pollu— tion problem YET!!! But surely this is the ideal time and place to start. As the saying goes "Practice makes perfect." But I guess when you have to walk six inches out of your way to dis- pose of empty coffee cups, etc., it gs a bit too much to ask of the already overworked . students. I mean they never have the time to do this at home; nor did their mothers ever teach them how to ask for a damp cloth to clean down ketchup stains, etc.. Besides that takes all of five seconds to accomplish and we all know how valuable time is - much to valuable to waste on such a low- down occupation!! But why should we worry? Maybe this is their IDEALIIII The‘ cluttered table tops, sticky floors; not to mention the cobwebs included in the gen- eral decor. Unfortunately, there are always one or two radicals who cannot find it in themselves to conform to the establishment's way of thinking! If you can find the courage to read this particular radical article, KEEP READING. ii iii . We realize that the student union has a \very financially poor“ organization (they only receive $40.00 from each student) but we ask that they take‘ the time to consider these proposals: We are all for the "cozy" atmosphere of the Barn. But, some— how I don't think that a real barn is as cozy as ours!?! :7! SO LET'S CHANGE IT!!! How dare we suggest a way to spend the students' $40.00? It's just the sort of thing you'd expect to hear from one of them radicals.- Shut up and keep reading!! Instead of the thought provoking decor that at present adorns our walls how about indulging in some cans of paint (in a slightly different shade of the present colour which is impos-' sible to name) and painting some sort of mural on the walls. Why not just put up posters, you ask..... Well, unfortunately, there are several mem— bers of our illustrious student body who cannot resist the temptation to remove the posters for their own personal use. So posters wouldn't last very long. lower themselves to do _ _, ii L_I , . ._._‘ You ask — who would the work? Well, I'm sure there are many unknown artists just waiting for such an opportunity as this to gain their moment of recognition! And, hopefully, those artists who specialize in "sayings" could con- fine themselves to just adding more to the already crowded line-up of originals on the washrOom walls? Once the walls had been completed, the floors should be given a thorough scrubbing to remove all the ground- in ketchup, cigarette butts, etc. Then a really good polishing - several coats should be put on. The student union could arrange it (as brilliantly as all the other hundreds of activities are) and plan it for a weekend when there isn't such a trail of people\ running in and out. In conjunction with the clean floors, how about setting up a boot check? The lounge is never used during the day, so\whyflnot put a table acroSs the door- way . The student could hand in his or her student card With their boots as a form of re- ceipt. I don't know about you others, but I really detest wearing boots all day long during the winter and can be very easily persuaded to take them off for an hour or so! And then the student union could really be bold and try to find the courage to indulge in more ashtrays (one for each table wouldn't be $99 extravagant a wish, would it?) - An oh, what a half- ~decent place we'd have! , This is a message from. your local branch of the ."HOW TO SPEND OUR $40300- STUDENT FEE AND IMPROVE THE BARN" Organization.
