Ro 3 Page 6 — LION'S EYE — December, 1990 SGA To Thank Campus Clubs by Jill Rhodes December 19 will mark the occasion - when the SGA expresses its apprecia- tion to all the clubs on campus by hosting a Holiday Party. SGA President Chuck McCarthy wants to ‘‘thank the clubs for all the hard work they have done this semester. Many clubs have been very active, and we believe that a pat on the back is the least we can give them.” The SGA will provide food and decora- tions for the bash, which will be held in the Lion’s Den. A holiday tree will be put up and decorated by the clubs. Members of the clubs have signed up for a Pollyanna and anxiously wait to find out the identity of their “Secret Santa.” It will be a great party and a wonderful gift to the people who have given this semester their all! | & : 3 variety of sweets at th e Photy by: DIANA MICERI Library Celebrates By Naming 10 Winners Did you enter the library’s recent “Guess the Circulation’ contest? It was run as part of the on-going celebration of the facility’s tenth anniversary and of- fered a prize to whomever came closest to guessing the number of items the library has circulated since moving into its present building. James Isabella was one of many who entered the contest. But his guess of 216,001 items turned out to be the win- ner, even though it was off by 43,576! Still, Isabella collected his $10 cer- tificate prize. And, apparently, he was not the only contestant to over-estimate the actual circulation figure of 117,425. Some estimates were as high as three million! Isabella’s award-winning guess was announced at the library’s Birthday Bash on November 26, the actual date of its opening as a separate facility ten years ago. Nine other prize winners won $10 cer- tificates to the campus bookstore that day, sometimes simply for being at the right place at the right time. The categories awarded prizes on November 26 and their winners include: Tenth Student to Come Into the Library Anthony Gueriera Tenth Faculty or Staff Member to Come Into the Library Andy Kearney Tenth Student to Check Out a Book Merideth Burke Tenth Student to Check Out a Reserve Item Walter Lee Tenth Student to Ask for Reference Help Regina Rouse Tenth Person to Come in After 5PM Matt Lucenko Lottery of Student Names on Reading Teams Peter Reppetti Lottery of Faculty/Staff on Reading Teams Waverly Coleman Lottery of Library Users After 5 PM Rich McCarron If you're disappointed that you didn’t win a prize, then stop by the library and pick up a consolation bookmark at the circulation desk.

Air personality Andre Gardner has taken up a vigil in an RV next to a semi-trailer in the Adams Mark Hotel parking lot at City Line and Monument Avenues. WYSP is asking you for non- perishable food donations. Andre and the RV will be there until the semi- trailer is full of food. Gardner is broadcasting his airshift (6PM-10PM) live from the trailer, as well as round-the-clock reports soliciting food donations from WYSP listeners. He is featuring many special guests, in- cluding rock star Joe Walsh and Keith Jackson from the Eagles. Last year Gardner lived in his RV for fourteen straight days. During that time three truck-loads of food were collected for Philadelphia’s homeless. “The response was so great last year,” Gardner said. ‘Philadelphia has always come through when it counts.” So raid your pantries, Delco, and help out a good cause!
