HOUSING
Students Still Searching

When the Student Society's Housing Office
said they had a lot of calls from "out of
town'! they weren't kidding, and they
didn't mean Chilliwack. The Housing Office
has had calls from Saskatchewan and Quebec
among other places, and spent the summer
placing hundreds of students, particularly
the out-of-towns. HOWEVER there are still
a lot of students looking for accommoda-
tion and the Housing Board is really busy.
Any help that you can give would be more
than appreciated.

BEAR BROWSES THROUGH CAMPUS

And an interesting news item from the
Music department—that weird and wonderful
collection of people residing (until the
completion of the new building) in the NA
building. According to our source, Kerry
Burke, co-ordinator of the Music Therapy
Program, thought the strain of a new fob
was getting to him today. (Kerry is co-or-
dinator while Nancy McMaster is on a years
leave of absence.) While on the phone at

his desk, which faces out the back of NA,
he was alarmed to see a large black bear
stroll out of the bush and amble along

towards the North parking lot. A call to
Ken Hughes to ask him to remove a black
bear (instead of pianos) brought out the
troops but they didn't find the bear.
Music department. estimates of the size of
the bear range from 150 to 300 pounds, but
reports that the bear was last seen driv-
ing off in a black van with air-brushed
pastoral scenes on the sides are untrue.
