Anyone who has tried to buy a
good, hot'meal in our cafeteria
has found that it just can't be
done" Why? Is there any roason
for this? ; There is a reason, but
no exCUse.
ii/hen the cafeteria was opened jn
1942. it was built to accommodate
320 students. Since 1942, the load
on the caf~teria has increased
2?5% in the prep school, with a~
300 college student increase to
share the meager facilities.
Consequently, we are faced with
a steady diet of half-cooked hot
dogs and ovordone hamburgs week
after week. Fr. Darcy is surely
not to blame; he is doing his best
in a situation where he has little
to work with. He asks, "Would the
students pay for a good hot meal?"
We respectfully aSk, HHow much do
we pay for one at the Fairfielder,
Father?" Furthermore,the'Fairfielder
shows a good .profit.
Come on~ Student Council, get
bUSy and represent our wants.
