What's the matter with the students of Carbon? Student property was broken and destroyed by a few unthinking Carbonites Supposedly good members of the Carbon student body watched it being done This is our furniture— we bought it Are we going to let a certain few derive us of the pleasure of "lounging?" If need be the student lounge will be dosed for the remainder of the school year The only alternative is for two persons of each of the six study periods to volunteer to Mrs Jones and the lounge committee for police work It is a sorry plight when it reaches this poigt but some kind of action must be taken It is not only a matter of a few people policing It is up to the individual and students as a whole to uphold and respect the lounge Are we going to watch someone deliberately destroy our own property? This is the first of this kind of trouble and we certainly should make it the last 1948 Inquiring Reporter B IIARDY A JOHNSON What do you think about the problem of the student lounge and its condition? Following are some remarks made on this subject: Bernard Christensen (Freshis a "Since student it projman): ect I think the faculty should have no authority whatever to close it The problems of the lounge should be placed in the hands of the student council Katherine Regas (Junior): "I think whoever broke the rack certainly confess It isn't the mistake of the students as a whole and they shouldn't be punished" Charmaine Hill (Junior): "The students haven't any place to sit and talk sociably during their free periods If they go to the library they are unable to speak at any time even during the noon hour and we can't wander around the halls What are we to do?" Bill Fish (Senior): "1 think the students should supervise the lounge and not be punished for one's mistake" Lyle Bryner (Freshman): "I think a Jr college without a lounge is like a fish without wa- ter" Bill Forrester (Freshman): Let's show the faculty and Carbon county that we are worthy of being college students by getting the lounge open and keeping it "This institution has adequate recreational facilities without the open: students turning the lounge into DAVE FORSYTH a rumpus room Until the students learn how to conduct themselves in the manner suited to the lounge it should be closed" LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Dear Editor: It appears that we have in this school a group of little children or should I say hoodlums These hoodlums as I shall call them are in their minds starting a new sport which is cheap vulgar and childish They with their squirt guns shoot water on people who in the greatest part are minding their own business I think this is a problem for the students who are using these squirt guns Maybe it is their way of overcoming a phobia they developed while infants because in my mind they are still only small children I suggest that if they must use their squirt guns they should also bring their mothers to school to change their diapers!
