The SBG bailbond service will be temporarily suspended for the summer starting some time next week, because past recipients of the service have neglected to pay their outstanding debts, Howard Zusman SBG treasurer announced today.
“We’re stopping the program within the next ten days, to work on it over the summer with our lawyers. We hope to have the problem of outstanding loans straightened out by the fall," Zusman said.
To date. SBG which has been backing the students has only collected $883 of the $2400 that it is owed.

City Commissioners Meet With Students At Forum
By DEBBIE SAMUEI.SON

A commitment to help clean up I.ake Osceola and promises to abide by pollution findings of UM's biology and chemistry department were made Wednesday by four Coral Gables city commissioners.
The commitment was made at a panel discussion in the Student Union’s International Lounge sponsored by the University Forum and Student Body Government.
Members of the panel were: City Commissioners Robert Brake, Mrs. Rebyl Zain, Bill Kerdyke and Vice Mayor Jerry Dressel. Also, Chamber of Commerce member David Scharff; UM student Alec Stephens, coordinator of the panel; Dr. Shepard Faber, director of the University Forum; Sami Burstyn SBG president-elect and Ray Bellamy, outgoing SBG president. Mayor Keith Phillips was not present due to a prior appointment.
The commissioners made a commitment to help end the pollution of the lakje after a statement that Metro, not the City Commission had the authority to stop any sewage now going into the lake.
Brake said commission action was being delayed by the authority. Metro has over all problems affecting cities.
Burstyn called for the establishment of a top priority city committee to solve the pollution problem.
“I’m offering all student resources to not only solve pollution in terms of the lake but Coral Gables,” Burstyn said.
Brake said that if Coral Gables built its own sewage plant today, Metro might say

point that without the SBG program very few students would have bond protection. “Most students don’t realize that if you under 21, unemployed, or an out-of-state student, no bondsman wilt write a bond for you. That is only because the bondsman is assured that SBG will pay the bill, will you receive a bond.”
“I’ve written students short letters asking that they he as responsive to us now in repaying the loan, as we were to them, when they needed it,” Zusman said.
But most students haven’t replied, and Zusman has sent out follow up letters.
“We figure we lose about $60 on each bond,” Zusman said, “By we, I mean SBG' and the students, since the administration has no involvement in this, and wants none.”
SBG is now working on a program similar to the one at Ohio state, where students are released on their own recognizance. It is also considering the new state bailbonds system where bailbonds at all schools in the State of Florida would work together.
“Under the new State system our students would take a real bath. With our own program our students have more control over it. There would just be too many legal hassles the other way,” Zusman said.
In the fall SBG hopes to open with an all new and improved program, stopping the continuing outstanding debts which are seriously hampering future efforts of SBG providing bonds.
“We don’t like to stop the program,” Zusman said, but it is the students fault. They're just not paying their
debts.”
Presently there are about 75 people who owe bail-bonds. some have bonds as high as $800, others have several bonds to repay. Inquiries may be directed to the SBG Treasurer’s office, or by calling 284-3084.

Rathskeller Manager Plans Basic Menu
By PAUL SWANSON
Of Th* Hurrican* St*H
Mr. Joe Pineda, current director of men’s intramurals, was hired as the new manager of the Rathskeller when it opens in the fall.
Pineda told the Hurricane that he is using a survey made of the UM marketing department to determine the basic menu of the Rathskeller.
Pineda said he plans to serve such foods as pizza, submarine sandwiches, hot dogs, and hamburgers.
“I’m trying to get some ideas as to what our students prefer,” Pineda said.
Pineda indicated that one of the objectives of his food program is to have special food nights, such as steak night or shrimp night.
Unfortunately, according to Pineda, one of the problems of the Rathskeller food program is the small size of the kitchen.
But, he added, "we won’t put out anything that isn’t quality.”
Pineda sees the purpose of the Rathskeller to be a common meeting place for students, faculty members, and administrators.
Toward this end, Pineda said he is trying to determine the proper decor for
the Rathskeller. After the decor has been chosen, Pineda said that the seating capacity will be known.
Although the Rathskeller Corporation is a non-profit corporation. Pineda said that “we have the opportunity to make a small profit to bring programs and new equipment to the Rathskeller.”
“If we had extra revenue, we could do this,” he said.
Pineda plans to have movies, entertainers, and perhaps a beauty contest during Homecoming next year.
‘I see it as a showcase for UM tal.-ent,” he said. “We will give students the opportunity to perform in front of other students.”
One problem he pointed out is the small size of the Rathskeller stage, which restricts entertainment to small groups.
Pineda said that the original idea of the Rathskeller was to have students stand in line to be served, but he said he now plans to have waiters and waitresses because “our students wait in line to do everything on campus," he said.
Pineda said that the Rathskeller will probably open on September 1. He said he plans the early opening to iron out any problems before the students come back to school in the fall.
tomorrow that “we have to shut it down and use theirs.” This would make it hard to sell the bonds needed to build a plant in Coral Gables.
Brake said that a new study by the Metro Commission will be concluded soon, and at that time Coral Gables
will decide whether to use the bonds which have already been voted on to build a new sewage plant.
When questioned about the suspension of UM’s on-campus concerts, Dressel said that Mayor Phillips had brought pressure on UM President Henry King Stan-

ford because of complaints from the community.
Lack of policing of the younger members of the community, noise and traffic tie-ups after the concerts, were some of the reasons cited by the commission that led to the cancellation of the concerts. Drugs were not included as part of the problem.
“What goes on in the community, drugs, pot or not, goes on anyway. There is no need to close eyes to problems that exist, by saying ‘take it somewhere else,’ ” Dressel said.

Academic Departments Merge
By COLLEEN JOYCE
Of Th* Hurrican* Staff
Several academic departments will be merged and one department will be dropped from the UM roster beginning June 1, 1972, by approval of the Board of Trustees following the recommendations of the Faculty Senate and the deans of the departments concerned.
The School of Engineering will now be known as the School of Engineering and Environmental Design, to reflect the increased emphasis on programs In architecture and engineering as related to the total environment.
Coming into effect at the end of this semester, industrial education will be dropped as a program leading to a major in the School of Education.
The department is being dropped mainly due to lack of enrollment, the extensive space required for laboratories and equipment housed in temporary wooden buildings and the imperative need for a building if the program was to be continued next fall.
Of nearly 2000 education majors at UM, only 30 students majored in Industrial Education which graduates only 10 or
12 students each year.
In announcing the changes, President Henry King Stanford said the University delayed discontinuing the program until Florida International University, which is scheduled to offer industrial education, opens next September.
Departmental mergers, will be as follows:
•	The department of industrial engineering and systems analysis will merge its programs in systems analysis with the Department of Business Decision Science in the School of Business Administration. Its programs in industrial engineering will merge with the Department of Mechanical Engineering
•	Courses in engineering graphics will also be included in the programs of the Department of Mechanical Engineering
•	Classes formerly in the Department of Human Relations and social sciences will be under the Department of Anthropology
•	The departmental mergers reflect new trends in curricular programming around the country. Dr. Stanford, said, as universities seek to provide more relevant and more effective programs for their student
