PEMSYI.VANIA Student raffic Violations Increase ' • • r ' Students at the University have committed several hun dred more traffic violations this semester than they had last year at this time, accord ing to figures released by Capt. Philip A. Mark, head of the Campus Patrol. So far this semester, a little over 1000 traffic and parking viola tions of all kinds were committed by University students, including graduates and women, as com pared to about 870 early last Feb ruary at the beginning of the spring semester. Apparently there is no reason for such an excess, Captain Mark saici, because the increase in fines for violations put into use for the first, time this semester should have helped to reduce the num ber of violations. Such reasoning held true re- Deborah Peek, seventh semes ter arts and letters major, will play the title role in Players production of Euripedes' "Medea," which will be -presented at Sch wab AUditorium on March 3 through 5. Robert D. Reifsneider, associ ate professor of dramatics, is di ; recting the Greek tragedy in which John Aniston will be seen as Jason. Others in the cast are Kenneth Cooper, Elizabeth Ives, Alice Peterson, Ernest Swiggett, Louise Jeule, Patricia Snyder, Gerald Denisof, Mary Loubris, Nancy Coulter -and Harry Bartol. Rodney Smith and Ross Wal ters, State College children, will take the child roles in the play. Rolland Taylor is stage manager for the production. Skating Rink To Have Musk Ernest B. McCoy, dean of the College of Physical Education and Athletics, said yesterday that music was "definitely a part of the plans" for the skating rink. McCoy said sound - :7rnent has already arrived and that ma terial for wiring the sound sys tem should :rive this week. _ He said music will be broadcast inside the clubhouse as well as out on the rink. Plans are also being made for a formal opening ceremony for the rink, but they are not completed as yet. The ceremony is planned for Sunday. Snow Expected Tonight Slight showers ,from last night will continue on throughout to day turning into snow flurries by nightfall, the• University weather station has reported. Temperatures, though, are to rise above yesterday's 38 with a predicted 46. Low tonight will be to 26. By TED SERRILL Peek Has Lead in Players' Greek Tragedy garding faculty traffic and park ing violations, Captain Mark said, as. only 325 were made this :le mester compared with 675 a year ago. This was the first semester that faculty members have been required to pay fines for any vio lations. The parking situation at the University is just about the same as. it was last year, according to Captain Mark. A cotal of 4100 permits have been .ssued - to stu dents and faculty members en abling them to park in 43 campus parking areas, capable of holding only 3009 cars, he said. However, he said, the parking areas are absorbing all these cars and they probably could- hold more because all of an area's cars are never there at the same ime. As an example ' Captain Mark cited area 13 which contains 29 parking spaces along Moffett street next to Thomspon Hall. Al though 58 cars have been issued Mueller Hears Problems Of West Dorm Residents Otto E. Mueller, director of housing, last night attended a meet ing of the West Dorm Council at the council's invitation in order to discuss with members residents' problems relative to the housing department. Concerning the installation of additional laundry facilities, Mueller agreed that additional automatic drieds were desirable, but said their installation would necessi tate changing the power equip ment in use 'now in order to ac commodate the wattage load which the driers would use. . In a letter to the council pre viously,, Mueller said the cost of such new equipment and wiring was prohibitive at this time. He said an alternative plan to install steam driers,• which would not overload the• power lines and equipment, was being studied by the housing department. How ever, conversion to steam facili ties was expected to be slow, he said. "The Wheels are in motion," Mueller said, •"but they don't turn very fast." Mueller said in reply to the counciPS request for distribution of first aid kits to the dormitory units that the housing depart ment is willing to include the cost of the kits in its budget. The necessary increase in ex penditures would eventually be made up by increasing the room and board charges of the resi r . dents. Before the kits could be distributed, Mueller said, the plan would need the approval of the dean of men, and the selection of the material in the kits would be the responsibility of the Univer sity Health Service. Other problems discussed by the council with Mueller included faulty showers, insufficient light ing, vending machines, and re funds of money from washers and driers which are out of order. In other action taken at the meeting, a motion was made and carried that a general election for the position of West Dorm Coun cil president be held. The motion came after Stanley Juras, council president, announced that he will resign• his post due to scholastic TUESDAY, JANUARY 11, 19SS permits to park there, it is rarely filled during the day, as proved by several pictures he produCed showing between one arid -fotir cars parked along the length of the street. - Of the 41.00 issued permits; as compared with 4069 last Febru ary, 1700 of them,, belong to stu dents and 2400 to members of the faculty. Both of these • _lumbers slightly exceed last year's permits division of 3.671 to 'students and 2398 to faculty members. Eight hundred student cars have been registered off-campus at the Campus Patrol office that have not been assigned campus parking spaces, he said. The problem of students driv ing on Pollock road between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. which caused a good .deal of trouble "last year has dropped off considerably, Captain Mark said. He said stu dents now apparently realize the danger if there are too many cars on the road during these hours. difficulties. Juras said he is will ing to retain the position until a successor can be chosen, Any West Dorm area student, including members of the coun cil, will be eligible for -the posi tion. However, only council mem bers will vote, according to the provisions of the constitution. The new drinking enforcement rules were discussed by the coun cil. The rules were interpreted to mean that any student creating a disturbance, or any student who is sick due to excessive drinking will be reported to the dean of men by dormitory counselors. In toxicated students will be issued a warning by counselors the first offense, and reported on second offense.
