Hi! I’m sick, how are you?

Seriously, folks, if I walk up to you, and out of the blue (I think I missed my calling - note rhyme) say, “I want drugs”, it’s not because I’m a space cadet, it’s because I’m sick.

Now, I’m not asking you to pity me, that would be pathetic. I’m telling you to pi- ty me; that is being strong- willed.

I like that. I want to stop now. Yeah . . .

But I shall perserve. I’m go- ing to ramble a little bit about places to study. Personally, I hate study carrels, communi- ty tables, and closets with win- dows (even though the win- dows help to surpress the claustrophobia).

I can think of three places on campus where it’s super quiet. But listen, if all you really want to do is socialize,

stay away - there are people who need to get work done.

First, second, and third prizes go to the Canadian Studies Lounge, the English Lounge, and the reading room on First floor Bernadine, in that order.

The first of these is just a beautiful room, third floor Main Building. The second is located in the annex to Main Building, second floor. As for the third - three guesses, the first two don’t count. If you can’t figure it out, leave this institution, you’re going to be an academic dismissal anyway.

My editor thinks I‘m delirious. She may be right does laughing like an idiot constitute delirium? Let’s try and get more voter turnout for this question than at the Student Council elections, ok?

Where was everybody this weekend past? Why weren’t you at the last two home games of the soccer season?

Raleigh voyage sparks new expedition

By Gary Luton

Notable Elizabethan ex- plorer Sir Walter Raleigh set out on a voyage of dis- covery and founded North America’s _ first English speaking colony. Now 400 years later, a 290—foot vessel which carries his name is off to circumnavigate the globe, to honour the man and to recapture his spirit of adven- ture.

Called Operation Raleigh, the expedition will begin in England this November and will travel to 40 countries on six continents by 1988. It will involve 4,000 young people aged 17-24, at least one hund- red of them from Canada.

The largest multinational project of its type, Operation Raleigh is under the world- wide patronage of Prince Charles. Its Canadian Chair-

Really, though, can't you support the one varsity team that has a chance to bring home the bacon? Have you no school spirit? Don’t tell me you were exercising your will,

Did you miss the pub last week? It was held at the Showboat for this week only, and it was a GOOD time. I think that’s what made me so ill, I can’t stand that much fun.

I talked to my good buddy Howie Beattie, about the reason behind the missed event, and he told me he has to leave some pubs open to campus sub-organizations

man is Dr. Joseph Maclnnis, a well known diver and arctic scientist.

Participants for Operation Raleigh will be selected from across the country. Those who are accepted will work on one of the expeditions l6 phases for a three to four month shift.

Participants in the pro- gram will become involved in land-based community aid

Here’s a tidbit for all you people who were so enraged that Howard wouldn’t let Red Ryder into the Haywire pub. Apparently, there was only a remote chance that one of these roadytypes could con- ceivabley, with much plastic surgery,ever look like a member of the above men- tioned group.

Projects include diving in the Blue Holes of the Bahamas; conducting archae— ological digs in Honduras and Latin America; con- structing areal walkways to study the canopy of the tropical rain forest; taking part in the U.S.-based See International Program which performs cataract operations in remote areas, and a host of small, community projects such as irrigation and sanita- tion programs in primitive villages.

Aside from that, and this being the real reason for Howie’s decision to deny them entry, the Barn’s liquor license could hve been withdrawn because there would have been too many people in the Barn.

Howard tells me there is something new starting up at the Barn Sunday evenings. The Barn will be opening at 6:30 p.m. and movies from the movie pub Friday after— noons will be shown once again, starting at 7 p.m.

Funds for the expedition will come mainly from ser— vice groups and corporate sponsors. The Operation Raleigh Foundation is a non- profit charitable organization.

Participants are expected to generate $2,000 through their own fund raising initia- tives to cover part of the $6,000 cost. However, no one will be excluded for financial reasons.

Operation Raleigh offers a unique opportunity to go beyond one’s national borders

The difference will be that there will be a more relaxed atmosphere. There will be no liquor sold, but there will be a bartender on duty to sell non-alcoholic beverages.
