the cooks what to cook on Mondays, Tuesdays, etc., and it

finally the "blg-wheels" of the
campus. Kach year there are elec
tions on the campus to deleriulnt*
tho following year's BO-called
"wheels." No matter what the
position may be, there always has
to be an assistant to help that
"wheel" roll. .Never before have I
hcaid of anyone going so far as
to give his assistant any recogni
tion until this year. The Business
Manager of the ColleKlatv, Bill
Krinson, refused to have his pic

into effect. Of course it could not be done right away, but
it could be tried second semester. There could be a two
hour period for lunch arvJ supper to avoid so much conges*
tion. There are plenty of students who are out of class be
fore one o’clock. There would be fewer waiters needed,
but therr would have to e some to keep the supply of food
while serving table and some to clean the tables when the
n>eal ia over. Meal tickets could be issued upon registrat*
ion. Lach student who eats on campus could be required
lo buy $75 worth for the semester. If any more are needed,
thry could be acquired from the office. If a student didn't
want lo eat everything, he wouldn't have to pay to look at
it, nor would he have to pay for meals while at home. The
tickets could be for five cents, ten cents, etc. and could be
counted out just as money when the food is received.
If the present system cannot function to aatisfy the hun
gry students who haunt the food stores, the system sug
gested here might at least save the student who brings milk
to meals with her a lot of trouble and unhealthiness. It is
obvious lhat something must be done soon lo alter ihe pres
ent situation.
