Editorial... Now that the new post office boxes are being completed in Slavin the long lines that have plagued the students getting their mail will soon disappear; or will they?

It is obvious that as the mailbox shortage is resolved a much longer problem looms on the horizon for the P.C. mailroom. As of September 1 of this year the clerk in Friars Station no longer “ pitches the mail.” This term, pitching the mail, basical­ ly refers to the sorting of the mail so that the student employees can, in turn, put the mail into the boxes themselves.

The reason behind this is that the clerk working at Friar Sta­ tion is just that...a clerk. He always has been and obviously will be until something is changed in our agreement with the Postal Service. The clerk’s duties include selling stamps, money orders, and handling of packages. Note that pitching the mail is not included in the clerk’s responsibilities.

In the past, the postal employee working here has pitched the mail even though it was not his job. The mail got out much quicker and the problems that are present in the system now were nonexistent. So, we have someone doing what he is sup­ posed to do and yet the long lines and headaches continue for many of us. Too many people have stood in line for 15 to 20 minutes just to buy a stamp. Well worth the wait, don’t you think?

Both the Postal Service and the College have been seeking possible solutions to the serious problem. We believe that the Sullivan necessity of adding an additional postal worker is a feasible one. Even if it is only for half the time of the regular worker. That way the window at Friar Station would not have to close during the peak hours of the day. Campus Clubs and Academic Progress

Americans do. We must become more politically aware. Our political apathy may have developed from our previous for­ tune of having fairly good leaders. We have not really had any poor leaders. However, this past fortune is no reason for us to ignore political reality. If we ignore our governm ent’s actions, it can become corrupt as it did around the turn of the century. We ought to know what “ the powers that be" are doing. Questioning our leaders’ actions does not imply that we have a rebellious nature: but rather a concern for the well being of society.

As soon as I finished Advanced Training, the Guard gave me a cash bonus of $2,000. Then, under the New GI Bill, I’m getting another $5,000 for tuition and books. Not to mention my monthly Army Guard paychecks. They’ll add up to more than $11,000 over the six years I’m in the Guard. And if I take out a college loan, the Guard will help me pay it back-up to $1,500 a year, plus interest. It all adds up to $18,000—or more —for college for just a little of my time. And that’s a heck of a better deal than any car wash will give you. THE GUARD CAN HELP PUT YOU THROUGH COLLEGE, TOO.
