T h e theft took p l a c e i n t h e early m o r n i n g of T u e s d a y 29th J u l y between two o'clock, when Beit security made their patrol a n d the time the cleaners opened the office. A window was broken in the H o n o r a r y Secretary's Office to gain entry a n d then the rather inadequate trophy cabinet lock was snapped off. A n unfortunate aspect o f the robbery is that it should never have occurred. M a l c o l m B r a i n , while he was D e p u t y President, w r o t e to t h e E s t a t e s s e c t i o n o f College o n 31st O c t o b e r a n d 3rd D e c e m b e r , 1979, a s k i n g f o r a n estimate for a n a l a r m system a n d better locks for the U n i o n Office. R a c h e l Snee (present D P ) received the reply o n 9th J u l y 1980, just three weeks before the trophies were stolen. E v e n though the trophies are insured for ÂŁ 5 , 0 0 0 , a n d are o f doubtless historical value, the worth o f them when melted d o w n is negligible, as most o f the cups were only silver-plated o r pewter. T h r e e solid silver cups were left b e h i n d ! These factors have led College Security to believe that the robbery was the result of a 'grudge' against the U n i o n , by, perhaps a n ex-student who knew the layout of the U n i o n Office. T h e y have even gone so far as to put f o r w a r d a suspect to the p o l i c e : a n ex-student w h o has b e e n c o n v i c t e d o f theft a n d v a n d a l i sm in the College several times in the past.

E N T S agreed a n d arranged a provisional booking of the Great H a l l . O n attempting to confirm the booking, they were told that C a p t a i n L i n d l e y , the College Domestic Secretary, h a d vetoed the decision. C a p t a i n L i n d l e y , when asked, stated that the g i g c o u l d not go ahead as it was o n a S u n d a y .

H a l l gigs due to the G L C enforcing extra safety arrangements. T h a t dispute was best s u m m ed u p by the then E N T S C h a i r m a n , T i m Fowler's, comment: " W e seem to be the only venue of under 2,000 capacity where the G L C is exerting its pressure. T r a v e l to the R o u n d house, the M a r q u e e , the Nashville, or a n y similarly sized concert hall, a n d look to see i f they have got a four foot barrier in front o f the stage.

T h i s a ut um n's situation is best s u m m ed u p by M i k e Firmston's o p i n i o n ol College block's attitude. " T h e r e are no S u n d a y concerts, because there a r e no S u n d a y co n cer t s " .

Showing at the Minema, Knightsbridge, until O c t o b e r 15th, this film is an excellent example of the work of the F r e n c h director Luis Bunuel. B r i l l i a n t l y f u n n y , the film offers a s a t i r i c a l , slightly surrealistic view of the lives of a select group of rich friends, plotting their course from d i n n e r p a r t y to d i n n e r p a r t y t h r o u g h s u c h incidents as their arrest for drug smuggling and the invasion of their house by the army on manoeuvres. T h e film is funny, intriguing, and superb entertainment, and is highly recommended by the editor and reviews staff.

unable to offer rooms. As it turns out, places had been booked by Mr Stotesbury for two conferences of similar sounding names but which were, in fact, the same conference. Hence Liz wasted a lot of her time as there is plenty of College accommodation for the delegates and College is faced with the problem of filling the rooms now empty. A further Stotesbury atrocity has come to light! During the occupation of the Senior Dining Room last October a large number of letters (approximately 150) were written by the occupants to their MPs and the press and radio in the hope of publicising the occupation. However, they seemed to have little effect; this is now easily understood as Liz Lindsay found the letters tucked away at the back of the filing cabinet in the Union Office.

By B.B. Wolffe Hi, I'm B B Wolffe and I'm in charge of exposes, scandals, caustic comments and wry wit. Mr Marshall has allowed me to cast my evil eye over College and the Union and to pick faults. I am very grateful for the opportunity. I must emphasise that Fishy Tales is not - I don't like any of this a gossip column bitchy rubbish about various Union officers shagging in Chem Eng toilets. Fishy Tales is simply a cynic's view of everyday College life. If YOU have any ideas for future articles then by all means write to me - of course, you won't be credited.

IF T H E person next to you in the lecture theatre smells a little bad, it is a good bet that he is a New Linstead resident. Students in this hall are unable to take showers because they have only one temperature setting — extremely hot (although if you wait long enough you may get 'blistering'). As if this wasn't bad enough, there are no shower curtains meaning that your clothes and/or towel on the hook on the back of the door are going to get pretty wet. And, wait for it, the showers have been specifically designed to leak onto the hall carpet! On my way out I espied a sign on the bathroom requesting that shower attachments be not used in the bath (why not use the shower? Hee! Heel). Later on, I found out that the bathrooms had not been undersealed and the overflow pipes overflow onto the floor. A s I write this very word, I am reliably informed by the person reading over my shoulder that new Linstead has had numerous floods over the summer.

IT S E E M S that Mr Roger Stotesbury (current R C S U Bookshop Rep and last year's I C U Hon Sec) is a marked man in the IC Union Office. Liz Ljndsay expressed her desire "to strangle the wee little bugger" when she discovered that the hall accommodation for the I N C O S T (5th International Conference for S t u d e n t s O f T e c h n o l o g y ) h a d been 'double booked' by Mr Stotesbury. Liz has s p e n t a c o n s i d e r a b l e a m o u n t of time attempting to find accommodation for the c o n f e r e n c e delegates that C o l l e g e were

T H E S U M M E R Accommodation Centre does it again! For the second year running, S A C have not charged a key deposit for Garden Hall keys issued to student cleaners. Last year, a number of keys went missing during the summer (not to mention the Southside, Linstead and Weeks M A S T E R key which turned up after a little internal bickering when it was discovered an S A C employee had procured it for his/her own use of the Hall launderettes). This year, a similar number have gone missng. Mr Turk (Warden of Garden Hall) is very concerned that most rooms have an average 27 people access and is demanding that a deposit be charged next year.

S O M U C H for the new g rey c a r p e t s ('costing hundreds') in the Maths Building. When will College realise that carpets were not designed for the average IC student? The toilet in Maths seems to do good trade as the carpet has been almost worn down to the tiles in that area. A n d how foolish to put the carpet near the coffee machine (have you been able to remove a cup without spilling at least a third of its contents on the floor?). Best of all was the technicolour yawn deposited not so long ago — the cleaners were talking about that one for weeks. A trip to the Union Lower Lounge will show what IC students think of carpets. This

carpet was put down only last term and now it is in a disgusting state — I have heard r u m o u r s that human excreta has been trodden into it! Finally, how silly to put carpets on the stairs of Bernard Sunley House; what was wrong with the good old lino that had coped remarkably well when one considers the deviancies peculiar to B S H . A l l h o p e is not l o s t , h o w e v e r ; the chemistry department has recently come up with what they believe is the answer to the students' mistreatment of carpets — they have hung theirs on the wall!

Tke >ici 5eto Ut A U T H O R I T A T I V E sources indicate that the much vaunted cook-freeze system is not working in College as intended. It appears that frozen food from the Sherfield kitchens is being kept in a normal refreigerator in Southside for a number of weeks before being served up in the refectory there. After this period of time it is long thawed out and getting rotten (see 'Mouldy Chickens' story in the last issue). According to the cook-freeze system, the food should be heated from frozen just before serving. The message is simple — don't eat in Southside unless you don't mind risking food poisoning!

VwhoM S A D N E W S for all Lower Lounge pinball devotees: the pinball machines were removed after one was c o m p l e t e l y w r e c k e d by person(s) unknown on 23rd August. There has not been a pinball machine in the L o u n g e since then a n d it is u n c e r t a i n whether we are going to see one in the near future (although Rachel Jane promises that new machines will appear by the start of term).

T O D A Y The Oily Dowson Memorial Prize for Misleading Headlines was awarded to Mr S J Marshall. Mr Marshall rose to fame last month with Alf Coleman's Vasectomy.

A N N I E ' S resonant, nay divinely graceful voice has been heard booming out across the Union premises over the tannoy lately requesting that snooker players bring back their balls. Indeed, it is easy to forget time while engrossed in a game, but could it be that people do not return their balls on time because the Union takes their watches as a deposit for them?

L A S T T E R M , some 75 trolleys were returned to Waitrose in Gloucester Road after a visit to IC by the assistant manager. Recently, a friend of ours, went down to Waitrose to ask if he could borrow a trolley to move his luggage into his new room. The manageress told him that they had only 28 trolleys left and muttered something about all those IC students taking them. Nevertheless, she c o u l d s e e t h a t o u r f r i e n d w a s a trustworthy sort, and after all, he die! have the decency to ask; so she took him into the back room and gave him a Safeway trolley!

while it is certainly true that they do fund projects in S o u t h A f r i c a , A L L of the other major b a n k s h o l d a c c o u n t s with B a r c l a y s International. T o end my outburst on this topic, I would like to stab a few IC Anti-apartheid G r o u p freaks in the back: Y o u might be interested to learn that M r D e r r y c k Everett, a former D e p u t y President, and chief exponent of the 'Let's stop the Boat C l u b going to S o u t h A f r i c a ' bandwagon does indeed bank with Barclays. W h e n I questioned h i m about his hypocritical view on life he confessed that he was 'somewhat embarrassed' by it but had formed his strong anti-aparteid views after he had got a bank account. It was too m u c h trouble for him to change now, yet standing up at U G M ' s and slagging off the Boat C l u b (very eloquently, I might add) seems little effort.

"Hello,

I suppose I'd better extend a w a r m welcome to all y o u freshers or I'll loose my street credibility right from day one. (That was it, incidentally) Y o u ' r e n o w reading F E L I X , one of the best student newspapers in the country. I was elected last year, along with L i z , Rae, and J o h n , to edit it for this session. U n l i k e some college papers, F E L I X is not constitutionally b o u n d t o t o w the p a r t y l i n e . F E L I X c a n criticize as well as praise U n i o n policy. T h e idea of press freedom is actively encouraged by both the College and the U n i o n , although in individual cases, some people have wished t h a t t h e y c o u l d r e s t r a i n F E L I X to s o m e e x t e n t .

I w o u l d like to congratulate D ave C r a b b e on p r o d u c i n g u n d o u b t e d l y the best U n i o n H a n d b o o k that I C U has seen. H i s coverage of c l u b s a n d f r e s h l y w r i t t e n p u b - g u i d e articles, etc, has taken away the usual task of the F E L I X Editor of re-doing t h e m for Freshers' F E L I X . M o s t (but not all) of the clubs featured are the ones who couldn't be bothered to submit an article for the H a n d b o o k . After spending m a n y , many hours pasting all this up I c a n only express m y admiration for D a v e C r a b b e f o r s t i c k i n g t o it f o r 72 p a g e s a n d m y contempt for these clubs. In retrospect, I should have c h u c k e d all of their offerings in the bin. I hope next year's F E L I X E d i t o r will h e e d my w o r d s a n d b l a c k l i s t c l u b s not bothering to submit to the H a n d b o o k . The

Anti-Aparteid

A n d what about Aftab Gujral? H e figures prominently in the A n t i - A p a r t e i d G r o u p and banks with B a r c l a y s . H o w e v e r , he seems to have his head screwed on the right way as while c o n d e m n i n g aparteid, he realises that it doesn't matter which bank y o u have your account with as they've all got S o u t h A f r i c a n c o n n e c t i o n s . If t h e y c a n ' t e v e n a g r e e a m o n g s t t h e m s e l v e s w h y s h o u l d w e be subjected to their ramblings with the possible risk of loosing valuable advertising revenue for U n i o n publications. I will not accept these smear campaigns in F E L I X . Anti-apartheid G r o u p at I C has done more for the cause of anti-anti-apartheid than its intended a i m . A pity. People

Security overtime ban College security guards a n d messengers have implemented an overtime ban due to the b r e a k d o w n in talks with College over revised rates of pay. O v e r t h e p a s t m o n t h , t h e n u m b e r of messengers a n d security guards have been r e d u c e d ; the complaint is that College are trying to impose new manning levels on them without settling pay first. T h e last N U P E U n i o n m e e t i n g w a s o n W e d n e s d a y , 24th A p r i l . T h i s was a result of t h e m e s s e n g e r s a n d g u a r d s c a l l i n g off a previous overtime ban due to start on 22nd September after College promised further talks. H o w e v e r , M r D a v i d s o n , the p e r s o n n e l secretary, failed to turn up for this meeting and the U n i o n e x e c u t i v e s were merely presented with a list of manning levels to be w o r k e d with the reduced staff. It was then decided to impose the overtime ban. C o n f u s i o n was c a u s e d in College departments as the N U P E circular read: " A w o r k to rule by all messengers will start at 7am on S a t u r d a y , 2 7 t h S e p t e m b e r , 1980. U n t i l further notice". In actual fact, a w o r k to rule was voted down in favour of the overtime ban. In the B e i t / U n i o n building this means that there will be no messenger from 7am to 9am, with erratic manning at weekends.

It is a pity that D a v e s h o u l d have m a r r e d his H a n d b o o k by including the article entitled " T h e D o n ' t B a n k with B a r c l a y s b i t " on p69. T h i s is n o t h i n g b u t a n u n f a i r a t t a c k o n Barclays B a n k . W h i l e most people disagree with apartheid, I feel that at a time when b a n k s a r e c o m p e t i n g f o r c u s t o m e r s by placing advertisements w h i c h help, in turn, to fund the p r o d u c t i o n of the H a n d b o o k , it is certainly not right to attack one particular bank in s u c h a way. Barclays has been a t t a c k e d by extreme f a c t i o n s i n m a n y c o l l e g e s t h r o u g h o u t the c o u n t r y , but it may interest you to k n o w that t h e y s t i l l r e t a i n a h i g h e r p r o p o r t i o n of student accounts than any other bank.
