I Contacts revised In the past, the Contacts section of the Western Carolinian was simply a random listing of student needs or services. However, we are now organizing the old Contacts into a Classified Ads section. As in the past, the service is free of charge to all and should be used by all. Ads should be typed or written in legible heiroglyphics and sent to us at Joyner 10, or P.O. Box 66, Cullowhee. In the past, ads were run in the paper for as long as we had space for them, and were removed when the customer told us to. However, the need has arisen to limit ads to three issues, unless otherwise specified by the customer. Ads must be recieved no later than Tuesday at 10 p.m. to appear in Thursday's paper, and ads will not be taken by telephone except in emergencies. <gg©®©© WQufe^ GOQOffS©^ ALL FOIL AGE PLAXTS 1/2 PRICE Located 4 Miles South of Campus on HWY 107 Monday - Saturday Hours • 8:30 to 5:00 7 West Main (next to N.W.
