Senato about By NICK PARHAM The noise and pollution on McBryde Quadrangle, the Gamecock's news policies and the campus roach problem were all dealt with last night during the nineteenth meeting of Student Sen ate. A bill was introduced "con cerning the hardships imposed on the McBryde Quandrangle by the library construction" which called for either individual units or central air conditioning to be installed. The bill stated that the construc tion violated the University's agree ment to provide, "an adequate academic atmosphere to perpetrate studying and learning." During discussion of the bill it was pointed out that housing had tentatively agreed to supply individual units this semester at $5 a person and $10 per person for all i future semesters.

Unaminously passed, the bill called for a review of the news policies by both the Allocations Committee and the Board of Publi cations. Co-sponsor Fred Magner sighted the Gamecock's late story on athle tic ticket policies and a late appear ing story on senatorial filing times as specific cases where the paper had not met its responsibilities. Irving Woods, Bates senator, pointed out that the new policy on cheer past ole n . . .the Don't I Wedn4 anothi oise paper block ticket buying was not printed sufficiently in advance to enable groups to get tickets for the Missis sippi game. Senator Magner suggested "taking back" funds if the Gamecock does not meet its respon sibilities as a news discriminator on campus. A third bill citing the "formation of large standing armies" of roaches on campus called for hous ing services to "counter attack the roaches, otherwise, surrender to them is eminent". The bill originally cited specific areas on campus where the "standing armies" were located. However, during discussion, a flurry of amendments to add other areas resulted in the addition of almost every building on the cam pus. The Senate finally agreed that the bill should include the entire campus. Student government Vice Presi dent Tim McConnell called for the formation of a committee to study the qualifications of a list of poten tial appointees to various student government committees. And in other business, Alan Lawheads was appointed to the Off Campus Student Affairs Commit tee. the g 0 uss n come t4 or to on4 forget our steak night sp4 asday A rib-eye steak di er at the regular price.

Shelley, director of maintenance. Shelley said that maintenance people had been working on the system for quite a while as it was a massive repair job. In explaining what was wrong with the air conditioning system, Shelley said, "It uses a corrosive chemical and when this chemical is exposed to air, it corrodes the equipment and imecoc 'reat your date to Lib-Eye Steak Din 6 ounce I 10 ounce i of those Shoney the Big Boy Hamburg a slice of strawberr a tender steak sand hot fudge cake cials - Monday, Tuesday, niner for $1.19 when vy.. s~ / 1 I ng repaired uate library causes leaks.

Now that the leaks have been repaired, Shelley said he thinks the machinery should last another two years. In two years, the new library will be finished and will be hooked onto the present building, and both libraries will be served by a central engergy facility, eliminating the need for the current system. ks ner 1.99 $2.99 specialities ier wich and buy
