Stop the
Trafficking on
Campus:
Legalize Coke

Sheila Wanner

Trafficking of coke is
becoming a problem on
campus. Since it isn’t legal to
sell coke on campus, many
students are smuggling it in.
This poses a bit of a problem
as some students have been
mugged for their stash, and
being caught smuggling could
result in confiscation of the
coke. And there are a lot of
students on campus who are
addicted to coke and find it
“ijnconvenient”—especially for
those in res—to be forced to
find a way into town to acquire
it. And there are no buses at
night, on Sundays, or major
holidays.

Say no to the exclusive Pepsi
contract! Bring Coke into
UNBC!

The Lament of
an “Island-
Girl”

When I came to P.G., I was
pretty prepared for the winter
(or so I thought). I figured that
in a city that got so much snow,
there must be some pretty good
road-clearing happening, and I
rejoiced in the idea of driving
to and fro with ease. What a
surprise when I found myself
driving first on 6 inches of
hard, packed snow, followed
by gross, icy slush,
compounded with black ice,
and very little sand. My poor
station wagon sliding all over
the road, I make my way
through town surrounded by
worry-free 4X4 trucks and
crazy sport car drivers.
Arriving at the university
entrance, I skid around the
corner onto Ceremonial Blvd.
at 10 km/h (which really pisses
off the P.G. driver behind me)
and slide into an icy parking
spot, cursing all the way. The
trip home is much the same,
and I find my heart beating

_ wildly when I finally ‘pull into

my garage. All this in
November! I dread the coming
months on the road and long
for a good soggy rain storm to

-wash away my troubles. So

what’s the story? Do
snowplows exist here or not?
Mabye the Edge could produce
a few hints for us
inexperienced few who have
not yet learned to cope with the
winter. Then again, I suppose
I could always hibernate.

The LGBQ-
Issue Sparks
Concern

This is in regards to the poem
entitled Journeys in your
LGQB issue. Since it is a
QUEER issue I guess that
means you have the right to
print any garbage that comes
across your desk, but I though
the language in this “poem”
was way too much. It seemed
like this wasn’t even a poem,
just an excuse for some women
to write an elicitly
pornograhpic story...and a
story such as this should be
kept for a book such as
Penthouse Forum for people
who are 18 and over to read
and since this paper goes
elsewhere for others to read,
this story should not have
printed and was irresponsible
of you.

Thanx,
Chester (James Gordon)

Editorial
Apology

I would like to issue an
apology on behalf of Over The
Edge to Alexis Zoe Porter, who
submitted the 'Journeys' poem
for the LGBQ issue. Her name
was not included with the poem
and we recognize the error as
our own.

Sincerely,
Paul Berard
Editor In Chief
