r License
Recently a beer license was
granted to La Mar's Restaurant.
This topic has caused a contro-versy
between Dean Allee, the
Acting President Allee

Held On Campus
La Mar's.
Dean Allee brought the matter
to the attention of the Student
Council on October 3. He stated
that he had not been notified
that an application for a beer
license had been submitted to
the authorities. Therefore, he
did not have an opportunity to
voice any opposition on behalf
of the Institute. He is very
much concerned about what he
terms "an unnecessary influence
to encourage drinking on the
part of the students." He feels
that such a facility only a stone's
throw from our dorms must be
regarded as an "attractive nui-sance".
Dean Allee does not mean to
imply that our students are too
immature to handle the situa-tion.
However, some of them
who are under age and are away
from home for the first time are
now subject to much unneces-sary
adverse influence.
In view of these circumstan-ces,
Dean Allee sent a letter to
the New York State Liquor Au-thority
questioning the legality Betsy Anderson
