I’M GONNA TAKE YOU ON, ONE BY ONE*

It is true that some chicken-hearted half wit, with more of a dull-eyed passion than an actual position has been posting “Trash the Cadre” signs all over Main Building. And others. It is also true that some person, maybe the same one, maybe not, has been throwing out large amounts of this newspaper. Ha ha. Lots of laughs on that one. When something like this happens the first instinct is panic, then accept- ance, then an understanding that really this is a com- pliment. No one throws out The Guardian, and everybody hates The Guardian. It means we are pro- voking something beyond a small reaction. That per- son, though no doubt a savage dullard, may run the risk of getting caught putting up their signs, but for them it is no risk. For them it is IMPORTANT to put up those signs. It is a critical part of their sad, lonely, pathetic day. Who is it? Well, we have all kinds of admirers. We take all bets. For that person, or any

_ other so inclined, | recommend you go back to the a section of the Editorial and read up on your terms. Just so’s you’ll be informed. And for those who think this is a sign that we are doing something horribly _ wrong, and that SOMETHING MUST BE DONE, let me say this....blah. Know what you are talking about, then start talking. Thank you.

[e] For those of you who enjoy The Cadre—and even those who don’t like it, but recognize our right to dis- tribute a free independent publication—I would like to express my personal thanks. It is a wonderful group of people who work at this newspaper magazine and I am proud to call many of them my friends. And for those of you who do think the paper is good. Well, you seem to be a person of great insight. Thank you. And keep reading.
