Over the years, the peninsula has been eroded, and beaches worn away by the currents and rising waters of Lake Erie.

Unless substantial measures are taken to save the peninsula, it will no longer be a recreational and financial resource of Erie. The St. Thomas Moore Club through its Forum hopes to in form the Erie community about Fraudulent Acts Aired In Consumers Handbook Unsafe products, fraudulent selling and deceptive advertising endanger buyers as much as ever. The time has come for the consumer to speak up for himself against these practices. Goody. Solomon tells whom to go to, and how to approach them, convince them in The Radical Consumer's Handbook, a complete guide to making our voice heard by retailers, manufacturers and legislatures. Here is both a call to citizen consumer action and a recipe for such action. Included are things to look for and avoid as a con sumer, step-by-step tactics on complaint action, how to confront business, state and local governments, etc.; lists of groups which cooperate with the White House Office of Consumer Affairs, city consumer offices, state consumer offices—and much more!

"If I have been correct in maintaining, over the years, that consumer laws are only as good as the commitment of the ad ministrators of those laws, then it is equally true that a consumer's knowledge of his rights in the marketplace is worthless without the knowledge of how to secure those rights. As far as I am aware The Radical Consumer's Hand book is the first book to furnish much of this information." This book will be an in dispensable guide to anyone concerned with making his voice heard. Letters to the Editor Dear Editor I personally would like to thank you for the very interesting and factual story that was done on-the Behrend Dispensary. We are very aware of our many short comings and appreciate any interest taken by members of the student body to give suggestions, constructive criticisms, etc. The dispensary was formed as a service to you, the student body, and we would welcome student input at any time. Thank you. Affectionately, Mrs. "K" Dear Editor: . There seems to be some discrepancy between Governor Shapp's intentions and Penn sylvania State University's plans for Behrend College. The problem is the stretching of financial resources. On one hand, the Governor, imminently short of funds isn't raising state educational budgets, which in effect, is cutting the University's available funds. The University, though, plans glorious new baccalaureate programs for Behrend, with majors in Arts and Humanities, Social Behavioral Sciences and Natural Sciences, with all the necessary faculty and classroom space to go with them. Where's all the money going to come from? Are we, the students, to shoulder the financial burden? William J. Holland ...silowor Ct. Registration for the Spring term 1973 will take place on Tuesday and Wednesday, March 27, and 28, 1973 in the Reed Union Building. Spring Term classes will then commence with the first period class on Thursday, March 29, 1973, officially ending with the last period class on Thursday, June 7, 1973. Final examinations will then follow on Friday anci Saturday, June 8 and 9. Students should plan to meet with their advisers on the day PRECEDING their actual registration. All students are responsible for setting up a mutually satisfactory time for such a meeting with their adviser prior to leaving for the term break. At this meeting with the adviser, it is hoped that several things might be accomplished: 1. Student should look over the "adjusted" pre-registrdtion work sheet and not any changes in time or any class closings. At this time the Number 2 Card should be prepared indicating those classes and sections for which the student hopes to enroll. 2. Student should receive a packet of Registration Cards containing the Number 3 & 4 and College Data Card. If he is not given these cards, the student should ask his adviser as all advisers will be provided with an adequate quantity of packets. In addition to this, each student should receive an "adviser card" from his adviser which will be used in up dating adviser lists. 3. Student should arrange a mutually convenient time to pre-register for next Fall Term. It is again the responsibility of the student to set up such an appointment and to keep it. ALL STUDENTS will register according to the following schedule. If a student cannot be present at the designated time, he should report at the end of the Registration period on Friday as indicated. Late Registrants will be charged a 510.00 Late Registration Fee. Ensemble Exhi Enthusiastic Sh Last Tuesday night the Behrend-Mercyhurst Wind Ensemble gave a concert in the Reed—Student Union Building lecture hall. Those who attended were rocked, Ba-zhed, and thoroughly entertained by this joint effort of the Mercyhurst and Behrend bands. Under the direction of both Mr. Davis Giersch, of the Behrend Music Department and Mr. Frank William, the ensemble presented a vari e d musical program of such contemporary numbers as "Exodus," by Gold and Reed, "Mr. Dixieland Fronts the Band," arranged by Johnny Warrington, "Motown Portrait," arranged by John Cacavas, and a number of others. Although the concert band was rather weak on the classic "Fugue in G Minor" by Bach and Moehlmann, they did a very good job with the extremely difficult piece, "Festivo", by the renowned coy:; poser Vacla v Nelhybel. The special treat of the evening came in the guise of the en semble's Stage Band. The numbers "Just Enough", "Back Home", and "Acropolis 7844" were spiced with thrilling ad libbed solos by Doug Dressler and Frank William on the trombones, Chris Suroviec on tenor sax, Guy Groenendaal on trumpet, and Jeff Weaver on the drums. The drummer, especially, seemed to enjoy himself greatly throughout the performance.
