So what happened to the Crier's new format? Please allow us to explain.
fir ir returned to the old style, but it was necessary
for thxs Election Issue; there simply wasn't enough time to interview
all candidates for executive offices and then expect the printer to have
ready before the general election. However, all future issues
out!" improved, compact format...that is, unless the money runs
Aside from the election, the main concern of this issue seems to be over

over^aTT report that I have perceived a definite problem in the

When one student can place himself in the highly vulner-
