* Editor's · Mail * Re: Cafeteria Dear Editor:

New student body officers ha".:e been .elected so it's time to demand another investigation of the cafe­teria system. Seems as though there has been an investigation every year for the past five years and about all that these investiga­tions have ever turned up was the fact that the price of food had gone up and help is hard to get.

Yes, we know that! Who doesn't? The question is, "Has the price of food and labor risen so as to justify the cafeteria to charge such h~gh prices?" How is it that at commer­cial r estaurants in t he city, a very filling lunch ca nbe purchased for 75c, while in the safeteria the amoun t of food obtained for 75c har dly fills the stoma ch of a grow­ing boy, namely the poo_r studen.t .

This time President Higa, please don't appoint a committee that will go to the cafeteria and be satisfied when told that the prices charged are high because the price of food and labor had gone up. Appoint a committee that will look into the ·books of the cafeteria and have it audited if necessary, publishing a statement of profit and loss and bal­ance sheet for the previous years so we may know what proportion of the gross receipts is going where and mA.ybe work out a more econo­mical .system of operating the cafe-

. teria so as to result in cheaper and tastier lunches for the students.

Citizens And Scholars Editor, Ka Leo:

What are we here in school for anyway?

What are we trying to get out of the time, money and effort we put into this thing called higher edu­cation?

It seems thaf many of us, stu­dents and faculty alike, are going all out for professional training or for pure scholastic learning. The

A Tribute ... To the man who keeps the Varsity

baseball squad operating, the man who unselfishly devotes his time to maintaining the team supplies and chasing stray balls, the Ka Leo sports department, through the medium of the school paper, takes pride in paying deserving tribute to, Robert "Bobby" Watase, student manager of the varsity. His is the thankless task, the man behind the team's daily operation. Bobby has been performing this invaluable ser­vice to the team and school for the past two months. Keep up the good work Bobby, and help Coach Kaulu­kukui bring home the Congress championship!

goal is that degree which is sup­posed to say we are educated.

If an educated person is one who accepts civic responsibility, acts according to moral and ethical prin­ciples and in short exhibits the characterist'cs set down in the Report of the President's Commit­tee on High Education (Tuesday's Ka Leo) what are we, the students, faculty, and administration of UH doing to help achieve this goal for our graduates?

Let's follow · Bob Wills' suggest­ion and keep on taking stock of our­selves.

One point that could be raised is this: Why are academic degrees awarded with little reference to citizenship, or why is recognition for citizenship left to the "Real Dean Awards" and other tokens? This system implies that only a few can achieve citizenship worthy of recognition while many can achieve worthy scholarship.
