Manzi Mo-Bile: Sharing The Ride In Style by Mart A. Olson The guys from 5th floor Manzanita couldn ' t take it anymore. They decided that their complaining about not having any transportation would finally end. And it did. It all started with a man from the alumni building selling his old clunker to Rob Krieger and friends. The original price was $500, but the young freshmen were able to talk him down to $350. Many students talk about it, but these people are the only ones I know that actually pulled it off. Twenty friends each contributed about $20, plus the added expenses of registration and insurance. This past year the Manzi-Mo-Beel served its purpose. Rob is the designated driver of the group. The car is in his name and he doesn ' t drink. The people who chipped in for the car all live on the same floor, said Rob. We all do everything to- gether. Since they all party together, it ' s a perfect set up. With Rob as the designated driver, there is never a worry that someone will be driving home who shouldn ' t be. We also pick up students who might be stuck someplace. Last night I picked someone up from the Wildcat House, said Rob. Last year the car came in handy for everyone when it was time to go to the store and do some major shopping. Rob said that they usually wait until a large amount of the fifth floor gang have to go to make it worth the trip. The paint job of the car is something that definite- ly needs to be noticed. It ' s a nice handmade job that has a great spray paint theme. The thing that they like the best is that whenever they get slightly bored with it they buy some paint and give it a generous face lift. It gets confusing. The group has got so much going for it. They are freshmen that have accomplished something that needed to be done. In the long run I think the best part of it is providing a safe way for friends to get home, as well as having a way to get off campus when school starts to get to you. The owners had great plans for the ' BeeF last year. They went to the airport and picked up their parents for Parent ' s Day and they participated in the Home- coming Parade in conjunction with the traditional Manzanita-Mohave float. The guys also took major rode trips showing off their speeder. It may look like a clunker, but Rob was reassurring. It rides really well and is in great shape. We have put some mechanical work into it. 24 STUDENT LIFE

A Written Voice Cartoonist Erik Andresen by Mari A. Olson NO EXIT, a cartoon published in the Arizona Daily Wildcat, has become a controversial voice among Uni- versity of Arizona students. Since it began two years ago, readers are split between liking and disliking the strip. Erik Andresen, the creator, hopes that everyone likes it, but he knows it ' s impossible because of some re- sponses he has received through the letters to the editor in the Wildcat. It took a long time for Andresen to get himself on the pages of the Wildcat. You could say that it was his perse- verance and or pestiness that finally got him on the car- toon page. Today he is much more secure about his position at the Wildcat. He has been a nxious about the other student cartoonists as competition, like Dim Bulb ' s John Wrede. Andresen doesn ' t agree that NO EXIT has become a voice of the students, especially those that live on cam- pus. Andresen is a resident assistant at Navajo-Pinal Hall. This might be what gives him the advantage of being able to appeal to residence hall students. In one issue, Andresen did a spoof ad called Come to the U of A. It is probably Andresen ' s most popular yet. In the cartoon he poked fun at the Arizona heat and UA President Henry Koffler. It wasn ' t the first time that Andresen poked fun at the university ' s president. I would hope that he is flattered and not insulted. I really don ' t dislike him, said Andresen. I think he is the most realistic president we ' ve had. BORED? COLD? FINANCIALLY INDEPENDENT?
