By WALT BRAUN Staff Writer Despite the convenience of recently installed kitchens in every apartment, residents of Stouffer Place share some of the property. Lugue other apartment buildings in Laverrys. Although Stouffer Place offers low rents and an on-campus location, some residents say they feel it also offers cockroaches, nosy children, and thin walls that allow private conversations to drift into adjacent apartments. Dan and Beth Jborkjum, who moved into the complex, then summer, said their friends were moving out. "Our apartment was infested by cockroaches," Mrs. Bjorklund said. "The grease was so thick on the light fixtures that we had to use straight ammonia to remove MRS. THOMAS PAGET, a one-year resident of Stouffer Place, was completely satisfied, however, with the condition of her apartment and the maintenance. "The place was beautiful when we moved in," she said. "I was really surprised. And the maintenance men have been quick. This morning I called them because we had no hot water, and forty-five minutes later it was back." Paget said that her major complaint was the noise level. "There are a lot of kids around here, and when they go up and down stairs and run through the park, you see them." winnman, markley, another country resident, was more tolerant. He said that the noise level varied, depending upon how much he liked it, but that his building was usually quiet. Bjorklund, who has a young son, said that his neighborhood could get noty but said that what he said was true. "Of course children play loudly sometimes," she said. "It seems that some couples without children regard everyone's participation." She likened how kids like something other than kids." She said there was as much noise generated within the buildings as the windows. "The walls are paper-thin, and you can bring people talking and televisions all the time." In spite of these problems, Stouffer Place is almost full now and will be completely full by fall according to Dolly West, University housing coordinator for Stouffer Place. West, who lived at Stouffer Place for five years, said that although the apartments were nearly new, they lacked a fire alarm. "Sometimes I really get bothered by people who expect a palace for $100 a month." ONE-BEDROOM APARTMENTS rent for one and two-bedroom apartments for $110. Room rental for one and two-bedroom apartment. Stouffer Place is completely self-supporting, West said, and all improvements and upkeep come out of rent money. The biggest improvements are the new campus last year, which should be completed this year. The new kitchens include a single unit consisting of a stainless steel sink with built-in cupboards and a silverware drawer. The most important additions to the new kitchens, however, are 13-cubic-foot refrigerators and four-burner stoves. Paiget said that her kitchen was installed she moved in but that it was beggfuf. Bjorklund also liked her kitchen. "It '10s times better than the old one," she said. "The refrigerators are probably the best thing to happen here in years. It's nice and cold, and it always keeps dishes didn't even hold a gallon jug of milk." 4 Tacos for only $100 No coupon necessary Regular price 35ยข each SHOOT THE PIANO PLAYER (1960) DIR, FRANCOS TRUFFAUT, (French/subtitles).
