By George L. Beezer
Lehigh University Writer's Group
Barry C. Kuntz has the sweetest job you ever heard
of.
He's the baker working in Packer Hall for Lehigh's
food service who creates the colorful works of art in
cakes that students and others purchase for special
occasions.
If you've ever ordered a cake in the Lehigh Cafe
snack bar. chances are Barry baked and decorated the
cake. He's a master at freehand drawing of names and
designs using those squeeze bags that are the tools of his
trade.
His output is in the range of three to four dozen
cakes each week-yellow cakes, white cakes, chocolate
cakes, marble cakes: cakes bearing messages like.
"Happy Birthday Munchkin 21" or "Sorry to See You
Go. Lem." Students like cartoon characters on their
cakes, such as Snoopy, and Barry is glad to oblige,
squeezing the critters out of his cloth bags of icing.
When the occasion arises. Barry rises to the occasion
and produces a spectacular special-order cake. He's
done wedding cakes with 12 tiers!!  With 12 tiers and
fountains'. With 12 tiers and fountains and gardens of
flowers fashioned in multi-hued icing!!! These cakes can
take a full day or more to produce, even for a seasoned.

it.
Michael T. Boyd, assistant dean of students for Greek affairs, said
incidents of vandalism, fighting and sickness caused by student drinking had
declined "considerably" since last September, although statistics are not yet
available.
Citations for underage drinking, however, have increased in the same time
period, Boyd said, probably because the university has added extra security
guard and campus police patrols on the Hill in an effort to enforce the law.
In a related matter. Boyd said, fraternities are keeping to the rules they
imposed upon themselves when the lnterfraternity Council voted to make this
year's rush a dry one. The 27-4 vote by the 1FC occurred before the state
legislature mandated stiff new penalties on underage drinkers and those who
supply minors with alcohol.
Despite the ban on alcohol during rush, interest in joining fraternities and
sororities does not appear to have slacked off. Boyd said. Formal rush
