arena for i he club's mock convention last april according to richard fritz director of events stabler arena management began investigating the matter after brown and white inquiries two weeks ago and were unable at first to confirm if the bill was outstanding because it might have turn paid 111 rough another account fritz said however both fritz and roger wai kins assistant dean of students con tuesday that the bill is outstanding stabler arena manage menl hu c yel to determine how they will deal with the college republicans m the delinquent payment ofthe bill i am disgusted with the complete avoidance by the college republicans of the bill fritz states i leel they had no intention of paying it and the least they could have done is called up after the convention and say we can't pay the bill what should we do a method of payment then could have been worked out he added although john kriekson 82 the treas urer of the club at the time of the conven tion was not responsible for the financing of the convention because dave spoont 80 was finance chairman of the convention kriekson said i don't think they did have the money at the time for the convention to pay the stabler bill but i was under the assumption they had an understanding with the stabler people " the club did hold fundraisers for the convention but how much was earned could not be determined the officer m charge at the time ol the convention kirn perrone 82 was unavailable for comment as a result ol the college republicans actions fritz said stricter measures will have to be used when groups want to rent the arena he added that he regret ted the decision we want students to use the building and we were tickled when the college republicans wanted to use the facility " he said we don't want it to harm any possibilities of student groups using the arena he added fritz said the tighter measures for using thi 1 arena would probably include support and sanctioning lor a club by an authorized body such as the dean of stu dents office and proof that a club has sufficient funds to rent the facility the college republicans club owes 13(1 for printing costs to the dean of stu dents office which picked up the tab to avoid credit problems for the university watkins said those costs included a 20 bill at cen tral copying and a 118 bill at menne i'rintery now christmas city printing according to watkins the college republicans have until the last week of next semester to pay the printing bill if the bill is not paid the club officers at the time of the mock convention will be per sonally billed and
