Suddenly, a sprightly young lad sits down beside him and begins to chow on a yakitori bowl. A duo crooning Beatlesque harmonies ( maybe Paul ' s not dead after all, he thought to himself) and sporting a stand-up bass, fill the plaza with songs about girls they want and never get. At another corner, music for the New Depression gets a rather warm reception. And as the music plays, and the people swoon, our friend looks around and changes his tune: Yes, I see it now! screamed the philosopher. Sproul has become, dare I say it? Yes I must. A bastion for bohemian comedians. Refreshed with his new-found role in the Sproulian rigamorole, the philosopher strikes up a few Platonic in- timacies, and soon finds himself discussing Nicaragua with a couple of skinheads. Soon, however, the newly proclaimed guru raises his arm to his flock and proclaims: I think, therefore I eat. The philosopher ' s epicurian excursion lands him smack in the middle of Bancroft ' s International Assemblage of the readily eatable, and he happens on half of a whole om- nivorous falafel, left baking in the afternoon sun. He returns to the plaza, and while munching on the beggar ' s banquet, the Cartesian character at last feels at home; feels like he once again belongs to the steps. It ' s a feeling he ' s not been able find as the years have yielded. But coming to the real-i-zation of what ' s the 80 ' s, he sees that changing times mean changing lives. Below Got to be a joker ' cause he ' s so hard to please: A long-time on-and-off member of the cam- pus community, street comedian and social com- mentator Stoney Burke examined the meaning of life for a Sproul Plaza crowd, Sometimes Burke per- formed in Dwinelle Plaza where his discourse escalated to such ear-splitting decibels that nearby classes were often disrupted.

Left Help! : Perhaps he had a long night. Or maybe the weather was just right for a sunbath. The steps of Sproul have long been used as a convenient resting place for many. This man has certainly realized that in the end, sometimes it ' s best to take a load off and let others do the work. Below From Me to You: With a little help from students who provide a willing audience of ever-changing faces, Sproul Plaza becomes a street musician ' s paradise.
