Simes Announces
New Traffic Policy
Dean of Men Frank J. Simes Tuesday announced - studentswho
have incurred fines from traffic violations will have 48 hours to pay
them after they- have appeared before. Traffic Court.
Simes said the new policy was being put into effect because some
students have failed to pay fines promptly. If fines are not paid dur
ing the 48 hour period, the car of
the violator will be sent home,
Simes said.
Simes also announced that be
ginning after Easter vacation,
suspension of driving privileges
will carry over into the fall se
mester. This is to equalize the
penalties with those given earlier
in the semester, Simes said. Since
there will be only seven weeks of
school left a f t e r vacation, sus
pending driving for the remainder ]
of the semester would not be an
equal penalty to a suspension
given earlier in the semester.
The length of time the suspen
sion will carry over into the fall
semester will depend upon when
a violation is incurred, Simes said.
A student whose car was sent
home immediately following East
er vacation, would get his driving
privileges back sooner than a
student wild incurred a violation
near the end of school.
Simes also announced a new
traffic policy for graduating sen
iors. He said that a graduating
senior who incurs repeated vio
lations will be dealt with as a
discipline case, instead of through
traffic court. This policy was con
sidered because sending home the
car' of a student who has only
four or five weeks of school left
would be no penalty, Simes said.

Graduates Drop
Cabinet Petition
For Seat, Vote
Graduate Student Council drop
ped its petition for a seat on All-
University Cabinet because such
a position would have made
graduate students subject to cab
inet's jurisdiction, Moylan Mills,
council member and editor of the
Graduate Newsletter, said yester
day.
The council originally wanted
to petition for a seat on cabinet,
but wished no vote. Later cabinet
representatives suggested council
petition for voting privileges.
According to Mill s, council
thought the proposal would put
graduate students below the level
of undergraduates. He said they
felt both groups should be on an
equal plane.
When council has a matter it
wants to present to cabinet, or
when it wants to express opinions
or advice on an issue, a council
representative will attend cabinet
in ai unofficial capacity, Mills
said.
