Residents Rules Confusing - Say Students
By Dennis MacKay
Recently students in all the residences voted to. have open residences, but ‘disa greed as to the hours. Dave Curley, Chairman of the Me- morial Residence C o u n c i l, commenting on the move to wards open residences, said “I am getting pissed off that it is taking so long to get some action.” He went on to say that all residence councils had formulated resolutions requesting that on c e r t a i 11 hours members: of the oppos- ite’ sexes would be allowed in the residences. These resolu- tions were then passed on to Jim Griffith who combined all the resolutions into one, and passed it on to President Baker. Dave said that he did not think that Griffith con- tacted the residence councils before passing the resolution on to President Baker. “At least he did not contact me”. Griffith. said he did not meet formally again with the resi- dence councils but he did
‘mention it to all people on .
residence councils”. He re- ferred to the resolutions handed in by the girls’ resi— dences going back to the girls
because he said “They were
all mixed up over the hours.”
Mr. Baker was called. by THE CADRE and said that the question was discussed at
the last meeting of the Board '
of Governors. Discussion cen— tred around the question of whose jurisdiction was in— volved in the matter. Baker said that “it was somewhat of an equivooal. matter con- cerning the Senate and Board. There are'clauses in the Act allowing‘both to make decis- ions for the “good of the university”. ‘Y Dean Stewart moved that the question be, referred to the Senate. Mr. O’Connell then moved an amendment to this motion which would al- 10W the Senate to discuss the question, but to take no ac- tion until the Board had made its decision. The motion and amendment were passed 7-5 by the Board. Incidentally, One of the student represen- tatives on the Board was not
present at the meeting which ‘
made this decision. The ques-
tion will bediscussed at the .
next Senate meeting on No- . Yember 12 and the nextmeet— mg 0f the Board on Novem-

200 G’s For: Jock Budget?
By Dennis MacKay
Rumor had it that the Athletic Department was to get about 200 grand for a budget next year. In' our continuing attempt to find the facts, the CADRE has come up with the following report.
According to Mr. Baker, the Board of Governors has not considered any indiVidual budgets. The Deans and heads of departments h as been asked to come up with
John Keaveny, acting as agent of the Senior class, ne- gotiated with the Prestige Ware of Canada Company for
our university rings. Origin- ' ally,
the prices set were $41.00 plus 11% federal tax plus 7% provincial tax for large men’s rings, and $28.00 plus the same rate of tax for them women’s. They did not offer a small men’s size.
The students felt that their prices were high and that
they would like a smaller
men’s size, so Keaveny tried negotiating “with the Chars lottetown jewellers. The se
a set of estimates for the var- ious departments, the total not being more than five million dollars. As yet the Board .does not know how much money it will have to work with. No Commitment has been made to any depart- mental budget yet. Mr. Hi1- ton, when phoned about the rumored budget of two hun- dlred thousand, said “I did not realize we had asked for this much”. He was then asked how much the depart- ment’s budget was. He said he did not have the figures and did not wish to give an estimate.
(Editor’s note: We hope to have more information con.- cerning budgets next week.)
Price Reduction For Class Rings
companies would fulfill the required conditions but Would not allow the rings'to be seen
. until the deal was closed. So
that was out.
The Prestige Ware Com: pany still wanted our busi- ness, so they finally agreed to our conditions. Now a large men’s ring is $41.00 plus 7% sales tax, a small men’s ring is $36.00, and a woman’s is $30.00. This is a considerable r eduction in price from last year, approx- imately $4.00.
Orders for the rings will '
be taken on November 14.

CALL'EM
By M. McGaughey
We all were extremely grieved to learn of the sad passing away of our dear friend and comrade Ap. Athy. The shocking news of this untimely death came as we were visualiz- ing empty ballot boxes.
Mr. Athy, a long-time resident of Prince Edward Island, had only recently returned to the Maritimes from an extended summer holiday in Ottawa where, “Ap.” as he was fondly known, to the Prime Min- ister, had been a special guest of the federal gov- ernment.
During his years on P.E.I. where he was par— ticularly active in politics, Ap. Athy had built a con- siderable following and was expected by non-voters and! politicians alike to play a significant role in upcom- ing provincial and federal elections. A p re mi n a n t scholar, Mr. Athy attend- ed various Island high schools as well as both the former Prince of Wales College and the former Saint Dunstan’s Univer— sity where he took his M.D.D. (Master of Dissi- dent Disinterest) degree.
According to I. M. Balm,
the prominent mortician, the cause of death was “extreme lack of interest” compounded in the latter stages by acute “Idlongive— adamnitis”.
Burial will take place on December 7, 1984 leaving the Provincial Building at an hour to be specified later.
Sadly missed and mourn- ed by his disciples Alex and Pierre.
LATE BULLETIN C.P.S. (Cadre Press Syndicate)
Contrary to popular ru- mors currently circulating throughout the nation, The Cadre has just learned that Ap. Athy is not dead. Ac- cording to reliable sources Ap. Athy is alive and flourishing on U.P.E.I. Our latest r ep 0 r t s have Mr. Athy running rampant in the Vicinity of the Stud- ent Union Offices and the Downtown Campus.
Due to a rash outbreak of the dreaded epidemic "Icouldntcarelessis” o u r sources are unavailable for comment at this time.
More on this story as it develops.
