    We realize fthat botfi the parking
lot and the 'cafeteria here'at
Highacres -are overcrowded As a
reult of the tremendous increase
in ehrollment this semester„
The posSible solutions to these
problems further eii!pansion of
the parking lot and a studert
Union Building - while important
issues here at Highacre:3 cannot
possibly., be taken care 'f
sufficient:;time has been alloteci
for sulving them. Until that
time the ;student body must, make
some adjustments to handle our
overcrowded facilitieso
Parking at the bottom of the hill
must be done carefully to.allow
everyone,ample room, A careless
driver can, by disorderly parking,
take up a space which normally
should be used by two cars. He
may also box in another , car so
completely that it will be im—
possible for the 'other driver to
leave.
The Traffic Committee'- if it is
efficient - should be- : concerned
with all our traffic problems and
not just parking at the-top of the'
hill. By any standards the fact
that over 150 drivers are daily
inconvenienced, by insufficient
room is as serious as that some
cars must be parked in the drive Way
of the upper loto,Any drivev who
persists in, unfair parking in the
lot, will be fined on; the same'
basis as those who park illegally.
Since the cafeteriajsoyercrcwdedi
arrangements should be made to ease
conditions during : noon time. As
soon as you finish: your lunch, you
are asked to leave your seat in the
cafeteria for someone else. Some
people have solved the cafeteria
problem by eating their lunches in
their Cars, down at the parking lot,

While we have no idea how' the,
administration views, this practice,
we will ask .theee students to be
a littlemore careful about the
manner in which they dispose of
their refuse, They:are asked,
not to litter the parking
with lunch bags and newspaper, •
but to put their empty lunch
bags in garbage containers. The
Traffic Committee should See
about having trash containers
placed down at the parking lot
for these studentsc,
