Junior Class Runs
Warm and Cool
Michael Hanek, president of the• junior class,
was more or less compelled to cancel the junior
class meeting called for last Tuesday night.
Hanek called the class meeting for the pur
pose of hearing the class view on the proposed
increase of 25 cents in student fees, and also
to get its opinion on the proposed joint fresh
man customs board.
Whether these two issues were not potent ,
enough to draw the juniors is a poor argu-' )
ment. The juniors' last meeting was to discuss
their class project and to consider the consti
tutional amendment asking for a statistical
poll before fees could be raised.
Hanek thought the class 'hit an all-time IoW
in attendance at that meeting when only 19
students turned out. But Tuesday's meeting
went one further—there were merely four jun
iors who came out for the class meeting.
Many students argue that classes mean noth
ing in college. On the other hand, there are
those who complain that classes don't carry
enough strength. We would like to ask how
they could possibly carry strength if the stu
dent apathy is so great? Yes, they are so eager
to complain when action is taken and yet make
no effort to change or help controversial action.
A small group of the class showed what could
be done by working when it presented the rec
ord collection to the Pattee Library. But no
work can or will be done in any student gov
ernment unit when only four members of an
organization can take time off to attend a
meeting.
More Suspicion
Will Curb Thefts
` The recent theft of $3OO from the coat pocket
of a freshman coed should have served as a
warning to those who tend to be somewhat
careless with their personal property.
The theft of the $3OO from the coed is not
an isolated example, as a check of the records
of the Campus Patrol can readily show. Since
the loss by the coed was somewhat larger than
the "normal" run of thefts, it drew a lot more
attention.
Patrol records report the losses of everything
from blankets to typewriters, and an odd as
sortment of items which would stretch the
imagination of most persons. As recently as
last Saturday, a chain hoist disappeared from
Recreation Hall, and last Tuesday gasoline was
stolen from a construction job.
' Since Jan. 23, 24 thefts have been reported
to the Campus Patrol. Only a small fraction
of them have resulted in the owners having
their property restored. That is not the fault
of the patrol, for there is little that the patrol
can do to apprehend the thief who removes a
clarinet from Carnegie Hall, or an electric
razor from a dormitory room.
About the only recourse students have is
to be a bit more alert, a bit less careless with
their property, a bit more suspicious of the
prowler.

Hort Woods Plan
Should Be Passed
One of the provsions of All-College Cabi
net's acceptance of the parking plan that would
restrict student driving on campus during class
hours was that the College work toward a goal
of providing parking facilities, on campus for
all those who wished to drive.
That the College plans to do just that was
made apparent Thursday night when Walter
Wiegand, director of the physical plant. se
cured the approval of cabinet on a proposed
plan which would provide. for a 181-car park
ing lot in the Hort Woods area adjacent to
Beaver Field. Wiegand's appearance before
cabinet is, we think, an excellent illustration
of the regard for student government among
members of the administration.
And what Wiegand had to say to cabinet is
further indication that the administration is
aware that banning most student drivers from
campus is not a permanent solution of the
parking problem. He indicated that the pro
posed lot in Hort Woods would be the first of
several lots designed to ease the parking jam.
Wiegand also took time to explain another
point we think students have not been made
familiar with. When the plan is inaugurated in
the fall, only so many parking permits will be
issued as there are spaces. This plan does not
take into consideration, Wiegand explained, the
use factor, that is, the number of spaces which
will be in use at any 'given time. This factor
may be as low as 60 per cent, he said.
When the plan goes, into effect, a study will
be made to determine the exact size of this use
factor. Additional parking permits will be is
sued in order to maintain full use of the facili
ties.
Driving by students on campus will be re
stricted to commuters, that is, those students
living outside the boundaries .of State College.
When this use factor is determined, the line
within which students may not drive on cam
pus will be drawn closer to the campus. The
same plan.will be followed as additional facili
ties are made available.
• The plan makes sense, and the additional
parking space which would be provided by the
Hort Woods lot is an indication that the Col
lege plans immediate action on the problem.
The trustees should approve the Hort Woods
parking lot as the first step toward expanded
parking facilities for The College.
