Under Con s ideration
A plan - that would sharply' curtail
.student driving on campus
is now under consideration by a special traffic committee composed
of four faculty members and 'one student, Walter• H. Wiegand, di
rector of physical plant and committee chairman, said yesterday.
Wiegand said that the traffic problem on campus has always
been a big one and that
. the situation has become worse since
World War 11. There are only
about 2500 parking spaces on cam
pus to accomodate approximately
4000 student and faculty cars.
No Definite Plan
The traffic committee, appoint
ed by the administration follow
ing a 'general meeting of faculty
and_ student representation sev
eral months ago, consists of Ly
man Jackson, • dean of the
School of Agriculture; T. C. Kav
anaugh, representing the presi
dent's advisory council; David
Mutchler, chairman of Tribunal:
C. G. Reen, professor of civil engi
neering, and Wiegand.
Wiegand said the committee
was conducting a series of meet
tings to study the problem, add
ing that no definite plan has yet
been decided upon. He said one
proposed plan would give cam
pus driving permissions to only
the number of drivers who can be
accommodated with the parking
spaces now available on campus.
Such a plan would prevent about
1500 drivers from' driving on
ca:mpus.' • I,

The short period of time be
tween the end of the fall semes

ginning of •the spring semester at
8 a.m. Jan. 31, will make it im

procedures, faculty member s

doubt about whether they passed
a course should go to their dean's
office to learn if any failures
have been reported.
Williams added that school of
fices will get one grade print
for each student on Monday

will be reported by the Daily Col

Calendar Plan
Goes to Senate
Three adjustments in the Col
lege calendar recently proposed
by All-College Cabinet will come
before the Senate committee on
calendar Friday.
Cabinet's proposals, if, approved,
would terminate classes for holi
day recesses at noon, continue the
two-day registration recess, and
create two "floating" holidays to
be used by the student body for
holidays because of special events.
.The plan to end classes at noon
was proposed to keep students
from driving home for holidays
during the night when roads are
more dangerous and also to allow
women more time to leave the
dorms.before they close, a spokes
man • said, /
The two-day registration recess
is now in operation. A poll re
cently conducted by the Daily
Collegian indicated only one of
eight school deans favored the
plan now in operation.
The calendar committee must
approve the, proposals at Friday's
meeting if they are to go into
effect. .

widely known as the first two forum speakers, Robert Vogeler and
Eric Johnston, is already established as one of America's leading
historians. In fact, he was the
youngest historian ever to win
the Pulitze , . Prize when he re
ceived it in 1946 for "The Age of
Jackson "
Tickets On Sale
He will draw on his "clear-cut
philosophy of history" when he
discusses the topic "Can We
Work with Socialism to Beat
Communism" at 8:30 in Schwab
Auditorium. This is one-half hour
later than the time marked on
the tickets, du e to conflicting
schedules in the auditorium.
The third ticket in the season
book will be taken at the door.
A limited number of single tick
ets go on sale today for $1.20
at the Student Union desk in
Old Main.
To give the public a chance to
meet Schlesinger, a coffee hour
will be held following the lec
ture at the\ Allencrest Tea Room.
An admission of 25 cents will be
charged.
