"There's not much to say," Moylan said. "The Rochester score was a fair indication of the strength of our team. We're very inexperienced and we don't have that much talent either."
The Common-which serves about equal numbers of GSAS and Law School students-has been a money-losing operation for the past several years. A group of Law and GSAS students boycotted it last February after several low-price meal plans were withdrawn.
The Law School and the GSAS hired the Mariott Corp., a professional catering firm, to run the Common in the Fall of 1969.
Chet Kenbok, manager of the dining hall, said yesterday, "We started out cautiously this year, trying to lower our budget. Our deficit now compared to past years is not appreciable. We're going to try to loosen up and give the students a better buy."
Kenbok said that the Common needs to serve about 750 persons per meal to break even. "We are now serving about 600, only one-third of our potential clientele," he said.
