Campus Pub receives support

Campus Pub receives support

Dear Sir,

Your front-page expose last week was very enlightening to say the least.

The point I want to bring your attention to is that regarding young Miss Paterson and the so-called "pub-affair"—not to be confused with the "Moyle affair", or just plain not to be confused.

Being more liberal minded than "Average Father of Ten", I voted for this lass in last year's elections solely for the fact that she intended to establish a pub on campus. It pisses me off no end to hear that she has renegged.

[unclear: I] propose that we should have a bar in the union building as a permanent fixture (i.e. not necessarily a full-sized pub). It could be situated on the middle floor of the union building with easy access being the keynote.

The profits could go back into the union, so I call on all (interested) students to write to this paper and back me up—"elbow-benders unite will be heard in the union building, in the library, in the lecture halls....

Mine always,

Brainus Maximus.

(I did not say that Catherine Paterson had renegged completely. I did, however say that she has shown no interest yet in her election promise (s)—Ed).
