ASB Prexy Reports Western Athletic Budget is Highest Investigation of Co-op prices was discussed by Board of Control members meeting Wednesday, May 12. The Board resolved that the student cooperative should be a service feature to its student owners and operate on the lowest possible margin of profit consistent with safety. The Facilities committee reported that it was endeavoring to secure the use of the stairway into the lounge and that any equipment placed in the lounge would be of a temporary quality because the administration wants the coffee shop in the Fine Arts building'completely equipped. Halldor Karason and Gus Pagels reported on their convention trip to Tempe, Arizona. A poll was taken at the conference which showed that Western was paying the highest per centage of any other college in the western United States to athletics. WWC budgets 67 per cent of its total budget to athletics. Second highest was CWC at Ellensburg with 58 per cent. The median amount allotted to athletics was 45 per cent. Kulshan cabin, jointly owned by the Mount Baker Ski club and trie ASB, is beyond repair and will disappear in a few years. The Forest service is going to open that area as a recreational region in approximately four years. Thus was the report of the Properties committee.
