Bob is a good friend of mine and a helluva nice guy he's been a great sport about this whole thing. However, he did receive 11 actual vote;all from members of the football team.(not to mention the 6 million unofficial ballots he obtained from a compet— itor). There was also a time when Bob was planning to‘ violently assault another 3. Palmer Wins Ugliest Man Contest candidate in an attempt to make that person an undoubted physical wreak. And an obvious selection for any ugliest award. But I told Bob that per- manent injury could not qualify as lasting ugliest. Not for this year's contest anyway.So Bob relenrnd and decided to let fate take its course."Congrat- ulations Bob lad,yer mother should be proud of yer. ‘(Just for the record,John‘ Klub,who now attends Dal— housie gave himself one absentee vote.)

We accomplished a phone call at least,which made the journey worthwhile.An eye— witness reports that Ray Shalala,who seated in a car near the Ponderosa, repeatedly hollered "dirty Something Is Wrong - Low Wages I feel concerned for the plight of the maintenance workers; I also do feel that they have justification in their strike. Who does not feel so - the administration? Let's look back to Art Laf— fin's article Oct 27 on dou— ble values. Now let's put this idea into effect. The administration says they have no way to increase the pay for the maintenance workers — it's not economically feas— ible, but let's keep in mind Intramural Athl that individually the admin- istration feels that the workers deserve better wages but can't say so. More spec— ifically, in the Student Union assembly of 0ct.28' President Baker said that the maintenance workers need more moneybut there isn't enough to go around. So it is difficult to raise wages because that would affect someone else. In effect, the money comes from grants, the student fees and loans and etie Schedule Monday ‘ Time ' ‘ Activity Place 10:00 - 12:00 a.m. Recreational Hockey Rink 12=30 — 1:00 p.m. Col—Ed Swim Y.M.C.A. 12:30 - 1:30 p.m. Keep Fit Gym 1‘00 — 2:00 p.m. wWomen's Hockey Rink 2‘00 - 3:00 p.nfl Figure Skating Rink 2:45 - 3:30 p.m. Women's swim Y.MfC-A- 3:00 - 4:00 p.m. General Skate Rink 5'00 - 7:00‘ p.m. Fencing Gym 6‘00 - 7:00 p.m. Broomball (Residence) Rink 7:00 ‘ 9:00 p.m. Kung Fu Gym 7‘00 - 9:30 p.m. Men's Hockey Rink .8:15 - 9:30 p.m. Men's Swim Y-M-C-A- Luesday ' 9, 131$ Activity Place 10:00 - 10:00 a.m. » ’Figure Skating Rink ‘00 ‘ 12:00 p.m. Recreational Hockey Rink 2:00 ‘ 4:00 p.m. Genwal Skate Rink '00 — 7:00 p.m. Broomball (Residence) Rink continued Page 12 then goes into a pot to be split up between maintenance, Faculty, and Administration. Now let's look at the Maintenance workers who live on these salaries, especial— ly those who are married. It would seem the bigger the family, the more the discom— forts of a minimal income.As one worker told me 'What we are really worried about are those people who are mar- ried, who need money to sup— port a family'. But the lack of income can cause disfun— ctions within a family. But the lack of income can cause great troubles in a house hold. If the husband needs to work at two or three jobs - and his wife work just to support a family something is wrong. The question now is not only th ehurting of the _wprkers but of an entire fam- ily unit. If the university pays minimal wages, they are down— grading society for those wages do no goodbut hurt so—. ciety by denying the indiv— idual a chance to fulfill hi,se1f. Low wages may be economical but sacrificing a man's self-fulfillment and his family's security just doesn't help too much. hippies" at the boisterous rabble of students.Ray, who sported a growth of beard and an old shirt,did not appear in exactly the height of fashion himself. Ray may attribute his dis- heviled appearance to the fact that he put in hard hours of work during the strike and was not quite himself when the march tookrplace. Several members of the Administration and Govern- ment were roundly booed, with characteristic student vulgarity on several occasions. Woozy attracted many new names during the strike;the most surpris— ing of which was a new one given by CBCT:Mr. MacDonald. One Maintenance worker said that the students really delivered a knee to the groin of the admin- istration by joining the strike.
