VOL. V, NO. 12

Are you a hall crowder? Do you elbow, trip, pull, push, poke, or stab people in the halls? Do you stop without giving the proper signal? Do you hold social gatherings on stairs? If you answer yes to any of the above questions, you a REDWORC LLAH (hall crowder spelled backwards).

Due to circumstances beyond anyone's control, the hallowed halls of Maine have good cause to be crowded. A system can be worked out to dispense with the congestion. If hall crowders would display a minimum amount of courtesy, the excess accumulation would decrease to the maximum degree.

Most students understand that a basic rule of hall etiquette is to walk on the right side of the hall. Naturally there are students who disobey this rule, because they lack sense or lack consideration for others. These students clutter the halls with nonsensical talk and meetings. One would think that after fighting the tide for six months even the fumbling frosh would grasp the basic etiquette of the halls.

Some students must be terribly dense. Perhaps they don't like to look at the backs of their fellow students as they walk down the hall. In this event, may one suggest they put a little method to their madness and perhaps walk backward down the right side of the halls. This may not be the solution, but by all working together we can find a way to dissolve this problem.
