Students' Tod
Makes Home
Out of House
During the past three weeks
students have turned plumber,
electrician, house-painter, and
cabinet-maker at Michigan Cop-
erative House, in an intensified
effort to convert their new ramb-
ling three-story house into a proxy
home for the fifty men that live or
eat there.
Before the intense "work holi-
day" started, the house manager
prepared lists of the jobs that
needed to be done-everything
from hauling away trash to build-
ing cupboards to laying cement.
Members then signed up for the
work, mutually agreeing on a
deadline for all major projects.
Angelo Menoni, house president,
now says that the last of the work
is done, and, as a gesture of cele-
bration, the men are holding an
open house for neighbors, faculty,
students, and friends this after-
noon.
