Pagt2 Construction be by Meredith Tracy Ever since the construction of a second residence hall, students have argued which is better - north hall or south halL This question may soon be made irrelevant as ten new townhouses are built on campus in the fall of 1991. The townhouses will be built across from the dining hall on the upper parking lot Each townhouse will board ten students of the same sex. One townhouse will be provided for resi dence staff members. On the outside, each structure will have a brick facade. Inside, each house will have two levels; the first level consisting of two bedrooms, a sitting room, and a full bathroom. The second level will have three bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a half bathroom. Each bedroom will also be equipped with its own large refrigerator. Although the dream will not become reality until 1991, a model of the townhouses is on display in the Harlem Lounge of the Administration Building. CORRECTIONS... Our first issue went very well; however, there were two mistakes which need correction. In our "Yellow Ribbon" article, Winston Watson’s name was omitted from the list of Lion Ambassadors. Also, our staff member Amy Spalluto’s name was misspelled on the front page. I apologize for these errors. -- Editor-in-chief Penn State Hazleton ins on townhouses Casino Nite a big success (baa tmued from page 1) Upstairs, Bacchus sponsored a dance hosted by DJ Safari Sam (otherwise known as Seth Kestenbaum). People who attended the festivities were served “Mock Tails” (non-alcoholic parly drinks) by students dressed as waiters and waitresses. Jennifer Vogler, president of Bacchus, stated that the Mock Tail party was held to provide students with a "...club atmosphere without the alcohol dulling the senses.” As students danced the night away upstairs, SUB brought a little piece of Atlantic City to Hazleton as the lower level of the Commons became a casino. At the main entrance, students received $lO,OOO in play money to gamble with. Card, dice, and wheel games paid out their winners in addr tional play money, which was traasferr able in large amounts for prizes at the end of the event Prizes given away included a CD player, radar detector, cordless phone, movie passes, and a telephone answering machine. Seth Kestenbaum, while not perform ing as Safari Sam at the dance upstairs, organized events below to fulfill his role as Activities Senator for SUB. When asked how he enjoyed Casino Nite sophomore Mark Rose berry replied, "It was just like the ads said - I blew my wad!" Dan Hued, president of SUB, summed up the entire night by saying, "This is the best I’ve ever seen the Commons look for any event. I think all the members of Bacchus and SUB deserve a big pat on the back." October, 1990
