Incidents over the past few months have ranged from _ threats and verbal abuse to vandalism of property and physical violence. The turnkey’s log describes one act of petty theivery and destruction after another,’ _

In November and thg early part of December, the following occurences j are recorded: @Fire alarms ripped from walls - l Glass doors in CC. vestibules 167,151 and 114 smashed l Location signs near the pub, the map near the LRO, and the “persons under-16. not permitted” notice either. stolen .or destroyed l A large tree uprooted and carried through the great hall; when a turnkey 1 s . .

“Whens y&i hear about it, it sounds furmy,” she added, “but with seven guys standing behind you and one of them following you and harassing you verbally, it was not comfortable.”

“We don’t like being’ policemen,” she said, - “most people don’t realize that this behaviour is dangerous because the university’ may want to close the building or the

-pub if we keep, having to call security.”

. Both Woodruff and Frost see the increased number of patrons in the Campus Centre as a major factor in the increase of incidents, The number of students asking to use CC rooms, and the number of students in the building during the” night are both logged by the turnkeys, she stated, and this record indiates that there has been a significantuser increase in the last eight months.

‘!Maybe its because students don’t have- as

-much money as they used to and they can get sertices and entertainment and can drink for less-money here,” said Woodruff.

Frost said he too was concerned over the pos-’ sibility of the CC being closed at night in order to put extra turnkeys at the desk for shifts with high vandalism rates. “Prob-_ lems happen when the pub lets out and duringexams,” he said, “not at 4 am.” Causing the building to be + closed because .of -high vandalims would be “un- fair to people who use the building at night .”

All three agreed, how- ever, that such problems are on the increase, and that in the long run it will be the students who suffer for it. “Our damage is covered under the uni- I versity vandalim l - surance, but more’ in? ’ dents cause the rates to go up,” Woodruff said, noting that this extra charge would no doubt be passed along to the students in one way or another.

“It- seems there are men who own companies (1 hate to’say it, but most seem to be men) who come up with something new, millions of women go for it, and then they - start finding out what’s wrong,” she said.

She further maintains that budget cuts have made it difficult to put on more turnkeys at times when vandalism is most likely to occur and adds that she feels “turnkeys are paid to do a job in keeping the building open for the students” comfort and entertainment. They shouldn’t have to run out and get involved in (asbusive) situations”.

Jim Frost, , the turnkey involved in the incident with the tree, agrees. Frost was tackled and pinned to the ground by one of two students dragging the tree through the CC. “When this happened, everyone - students and staff - in the Great , Hall stood up and surrounded the culprits until security arrived,” he said, adding “at that point,, I wasn’t charging -people with assault”. -

Frost notes, however, that although he can’t speak for all turnkeys, he intends to lay charges if attacked again. “I’ve been pushed around and punched around too much in the Great Hall,” said Frost, “I don’t think that’s part of the job description.”

“Only nine studies testing tampons, involving a grand total of 1,334 subjects, have been re- ported in the medical literature since tampons were invented in 1933,” she noted, And although pub- lic interest was aroused with the media’s handling of the TSS discovery, producers of tampons are still not required to divulge what is used _ in their
