HAPPY SAINT PATRICK'S DAY !!

VOLUME 105, NUMBER 7 ESTABLISHED 1873 MARCH 17, 1978 Hathorn Bell Clapper Stolen

THE RECENT NONFUNCTIONING OF HATHORN'S BELL IS DUE TO THE FACT THAT ABOUT 40 POUNDS OF ESSENTIAL METAL ARE MISSING. THE REASON FOR THIS IS THAT SOME OF US ARE TIRED OF BEING RUNG OUT OF BED; RUNG OUT OF CLASS; RUNG FROM STALL TO STALL (BATES COLLEGE STABLES).

DOES BATES COLLEGE ENJOY THE POWER YIELDED BY ITS SURROGATE FACTORY WHISTLE??

WE PREFER TO CHECK IN AND OUT ON OUR PRIVATE TIME CLOCKS. WE DO NOT INTEND TO RETAIN THE BELL CLAPPER AS HOSTAGE BUT WE WOULD APPRECIATE A RESPONSE TO OUR CONCERNS. .

NEVER LET IT BE SAID THAT COLLEGE STUDENTS ONLY COMPLAIN AND AVOID ACTION.

"The Student" received this annonymous message on Thursday, March 16. We of "The Student" urge the return of the clapper. Assistance will be provided by writing to Box 309. J.A. Selection Completed

With the upcoming senatorial election in the State of Maine, the news release from "Student" feels that it would be beneficial to present the views of the two major contenders for the seat: U. S. Senator William Hathaway and U. S. Representative . These columns are submitted weekly bv the candidates and will be printed with absolutely no change. Any comments on the views SENATOR WILLIAM D. HATHAWAY expressed in these columns is welcomed by the "Student" and should be submitted to Box 309.
