watch passersby.   The elevated area will
also be used to stage entertainment acts,
says Finley.
A polished wood bar extends out from
one corner of the wedge-shaped room.
Exposed trusses of dusty pink fill the
heightened ceiling in the main section of
the room, while the lowered ceiling near
the back is adorned with grey tiles. A
subdued blue rug partially covers the
floor, while rose and chocolate riles cover
the rest
Other furnishing details, such as
artificial plants (made of silk), two 25-
inch televisions and some construction
details were not completed last week,
though food services plan to have them
done by today. A compact disc
player/radio wiD also sit behind the bar.
It is a spacious place, ready with its
sound-absorbing wall covering, to
comfortably bold 200-300 people.
Also, the entrance doors are wheelchair
accessible, as are the taller than normal
tables in the center of the room.
To make the Bucket as amenable as
possible, service will be a priority, said
Patty Hamilton, manager of campus food
In the immediate future is the Bucket's
first entertainment act. The College Com¬
edy Competition is scheduled to appear
on Feb. 8, according to Finley. Other
entertainment is currently being worked
on, he said.
Also, Finley said, there are plans to
use the Bucket and Vintage room in
tandem for evening functions on Fridays
and Saturdays. A door connecting the two
rooms was incorporated into the design of
the bar specifically for dial purpose, he
said.
Finley says be anticipates some
criticism of the design and execution of
the Bucket
There will probably be a lot of people
who won't like it a lot; we probably will
be suffering some slings and arrow," he
But at a preview party held at the bar
last week for those affiliated with Associ¬
ated Students, it seemed Fmley's "best
guess" was pretty good
"It's classy," said Carlos Hannon, a
senior who had worked at the old Bucket
for three years. And Cynthia Gonzales, a
senior, described the new bar as "more
inviting" than the old Bucket where a
woman, she said, could feel out of place.
"We will stress service to make
customers happy," she said. According to
Hamilton, 20 additional students have
been hired to serve a room which can hold
two to three times as many people as the
old bar.
Table service will be provided as well
as a specialized menu distinct from the
Old Cafeteria menu (unlike the old bar).
In another unprecedented move, the bar,
which previously only served beer, will
be serving wine margaritas on a "try out"
basts, Hamilton said.
Campus Food Service hopes the Buck¬
et will become a place where students
will socialize, eat, perhaps have a drink or
two and be entertained on campus.
