Drinking student loses $34 to too strict social rules Pubnights are fun with one exception; the end of the night rip-offs. Namely, the cashier being closed be- fore the drink counters clos- ing means | have to race to the counter to get as: many drinks as. tickets | have, or lose the money | invested. Well, that’s fine. | buy 3 or 5 tickets or whatever | feel 1’ll be wanting for the even- ing, and | don’t object to having to spend them on drinks. | object when ‘’No more beer!’’ is announced or the gate comes down on the hard-bar, and I’m left with tickets | can’t get a refund for. In the past, tickets were good at the next pub-night. | _ even remember the green plastic chips with ‘Douglas College Pub’ written on them. It was a good and fair system. Now, | and many others are left with useless tickets that cost $1.25 each. To me and many others, if | may speak for them, this is not fair. I’m paying for goods | don’t receive. | don’t mind grabbing 2: Ory 3* drinks at once when last call is announced, but when the gates come down in mid-line or ‘‘No more beer!’’ is uttered and | see the work- ers carrying unopened cases of beer to the back with the empties, | feel ripped off! I’ve kept all my leftover tickets to date since this -. absurd policy has been in effect, and the sum _ is roughly $34 worth. | can’t afford to donate that much money to DCSS. Other Press is great Congratulations, your January 18th issue was the best overall edition I’ve read, since coming to Doug- las College three and a half years ago. So much so, that it has prompted this letter of praise...the first. Reporter Dan Hilborn’s reporting on local issues was very interesting, although his journalistic style of wri- ting is still rough around the edges, it is nearing’ profes- sional quality. . Photographer/writer Sean Valentini’s ‘pictures. and lay- out of the ‘‘Nutcracker’’ are great. And finally, Sports Editor Martin Hem- erik has given the Other Press a well balanced look with his excellent coverage of athletics at Douglas Col-: lege. Keep, up the good work. Bill Bell Public Information Officer 2 Douglas College Prose reading On Thursday February 23rd at noon, Douglas College Special Events presents a prose reading by award win- ning author W.P.
