'Effective Action'
Steve Smith, vice-president of ATO said that
his fraternity had dealt with the problem
through the leaders of the ATO Corporation.
He added "they took effective action to
relocate us and to lobby downtown to keep the
house."
He went on to say that many members felt
that "there was a good chance the proposal
would be defeated due to the large turnout at
the City Council meeting on October 19."
Speaking for his fraternity, Mr. Smith said
that "the brothers of our house are pleased that
the City Council decided not to go through
with the proposed plans. We had already begun
efforts to find a place to relocate. We looked
into the financial aspects of such a move.
Because of the support of both students and
other interested persons we won't have to
move."
Mr. Smith said that even though the house
was happy to hear the news, they would still be
"cautious, because the City Council had
previously voted down the decision and said it
would not be brought up again." He concluded
"We will remain in contact with the people who
have helped us."
