Bill Ernest. In a meeting between Mr. Silas Vaughn, Director of Administrative Affairs; Dean McKay; the JOURNAL; Mr. Fred Burger, Saga District Manager; and Mr. Bill Ernest, new Cafteria Manager, Burger stated that this was not an unusual move for Saga and that they were "very, very positive about the change." Vaughn also stressed the positive aspect of the change on the part of both Saga and the University. He said that the University wishes Dailey well, and that one of the reasons for engaging a good service was for the flexibility personnel which they have which the university can't maintain. He further stated that management is a primary part of food service and that he felt that Ernest's experience would be a great asset Ernest comes to the University from Winthrop College. Prior to that he served with Sa^ at West Texas State University and with Marriot, another food service company. Burger said that the company "felt very lucky to have Ernest with them." Presently, Ernest, his wife and three children are living in Rock Hill but plan to re-locate in Charlotte in the near future. Ernest said that changes will be made in the program that is being offered to the students; he plans to offer the full Saga plan, which he said we have not gotten in the past. He emphasized his willingness to deal with student complaints and suggestions. Either he or his assistant, Tom Nicholson, can be found in the cafeteria at most any time. He hopes students will feel free to come to them at any time. He also mentioned that students have access to a suggestion box and to the Food Service Committee at all times. He promised that all suggestions will be looked into, though it may not be feasible to adopt all of the suggestions made. Though Saga plans to do everything possible to make the students happier with the food service, Mr. Vaughn mentioned that they too have problems with the students; for example, many students do not bus their trays, fail to separate their silver and their dishes, and carry off the silver, the glasses, and dishes. He emphasized that in the long run these things hurt the students because funds which must be diverted to replace these thefts could be used for other purposes. Qualijlcations of students run ning for Editors and Business Managers of the three student f)uhlications-SANSKRIT, ROGUES 'N RASCALS. THE CAROLINA JOURNAL- should he submitted to the Board of Student Publications by tomorrow. March 5. One of the many examples of unbused tables. Dailey Talks To Journal Mr. Frank Dailey, who was appointed last fall by SAGA Food Services as UNCC Director of Food Services, was recently dismissed from his position by the company. This announcement came as a complete shock to Mr. Dailey, as well as to the University. Mr. Dailey told the JOURNAL that the only reason SAGA has given for the dismissal was that the company would not be able to comply with the demands Mr. Dailey had made for the University for the next two or three years. SAGA told Mr. Dailey, he said, that they would not be able to make him happy here whm, only two or three weeks before, Mr. Dailey had told the management that he was very pleased with working with the students and faculty at UNCC (and with living in Charlotte.) Mr. Dailey feels that the students and faculty were satisfied with his food service in general, except for a few complaints about high prices on a la carte foods. Dietz Returns For Third Time Acting team Norman and Sandra Dietz will be featured in a performance of "Fresh Cookies" at 8 p.m., March 4 in the University Union. The appearance is sponsored by the United Religious Ministry here. The performance is free and open to the public. The Dietz couple is on its eighth tour to the West Coast and back performing on University campuses and in churches. Much of their material deals with matters of religious significance. They perform Norman's unique material, replacing old ones with new ones at random as Norman finishes writing them-sometimes, he says, before. At home in New York City in January, 1968, they opened Theatre-at-Noon, a luncheon theatre series at Saint Peter's Gate in the midtown office district; and, in February, 1969, they returned for a five-month stay with their own series "The Noonshow." A collection of six of Norman'% plays, titled "Fables 8t Vaudevilles & Plays", was published by John Knox in 1968. "Fresh Cookies" will be the third appearance of the Dietz couple here. Hope For Life By Joe H. McCorkle The UNCC Environmental Committee is making plans to organize a campus teach-in on April 22. The theme of the environmental teach-in will be, MAN AND HIS ENVIRONMENT: HOPE FOR LIFE. The S.G.A. sponsored committee is under the leadership of a national organization known as Environmental Teach-In, Inc. of Washington D. C. The aim of the National Teach-In is to encourage the nation's students to organize April 22 environmental teach-ins on their campuses, and associated efforts in their communities. According to the National Committee, "Successful teach-ins on all campuses on the same day will have a dramatic impact on the environmental conscience of the nation." Thus, the April 22 teach-in will be an educational effort in arousing public opinion with hopes that necessary steps will be taken to improve the quality of the environment. The April 22 teach-in at UNCC will focus on the following topics: the visual environment, the human environment, the physical environment, and the technological environment. The UNCC Environmental Committee will sponsor a meeting on Thursday ^rch 5, at 12:00 p.m. in U231 in which Dr. James W. Clay, Assistant Professor of Geography, will speak on environmental problems. The meeting is open to all studente, faculty, and staff. Membership in the UNCC Environmental Committee is open to all students.
