With the resignation of Ridge- runner editor Maureen Bigelow, who with the sanction of the Pub lications Board appointed me editor, the status of The Rag and Bone Shop has become difficult to define. Since we at The Rag and Bone Shop are rather en amored of our little publication, we have decided to expand the basic format published in Febru ary to include more news. The last issue of The Rag and Bone Shop was marked by an extremely experimental quality. Those of us involved in the publi cation were so green that we approached everything from typewriters to lay-out paper as though we might contract leprosy. Well, we didn’t catch anything, so here we are again. We’ve had a good time and hope that some oV that has been communicated. It seems, from feedback concern ing the last issue, that there is interest on campus for a publica tion of this sort. Please contact us with submissions and sugges tions. We’re open after 3:30 every day. The deadline for the next issue is April 27. I would like to thank our small but stalwart staff, the UNC-A Literature Department, Maureen Bigelow and the Publications Board for their support and gen erosity. We had been given short notice for the go-ahead for this issue, and without the help of those mentioned it would have been impossible to publish.
