sibly faculty members and employees.
The recommendation was one of three in a report sub
mitted by Mary Buchanan, chairman of the Student Encamp
ment Committee on Regulations
and Controls. This report, and
one read by Douglas Moorhead,
president of the Physical Educa
tion Student Council, on the re
sults of Fun Night, were accepted
by Cabinet.

Parking Fees
In the recommendation on the
levying of parking fees, Miss
Buchanan explained that the
committee felt such action would
eliminate unnecessary cars on
campus and would accumulate a
fund for additional parking areas.
The committee proposed that
a clause in the University traffic
regulations allowing students
three weeks to register cars on
campus be removed so that stu
dents would have no loophole by
which to escape penalties. No ac
tion in referring the recommenda
tion was taken when Norman Mil
ler, chairman of the board of
publications, pointed out that
Traffic Court had already passed
the proposal.
Cinder Parking Lot
A third recommendation asked
for consideration of the construc
tion of a cinder parking lot on
campus.
Cabinet decided not to refer
any of the points in the report
to campus groups or committees,
since consideration is already
being given to many of the re
port 's sections. All-University
President Earl Seely pointed" out
that time would be saved if parts
of the report were not referred
to groups that will normally take
them up any Way.
Customs Program
Other problems taken up in the
report dealt with the weakness
of the customs program, the use
of restricted hours for men as a
judicial penalty, and the need for
protecting freshmen from too
much hazing.
Moorhead reported that Fun
Night, a mixer for freshmen at
the end of Orientation Week, was
attended by 1500 to 1800 persons
at one time or another during the
evening. However, a problem con
cerning the attendance, Moor
head said, was the small number
of freshman women attending.
No more than 100 to 150 women
were present at one time, he told
Cabinet.
Entertainment Type Program
Moorhead recommended that
the program continue as a
combination dance-entertainment
type instead of the more athletic
type program of previous years.
He explained that there have
usually been more recreational
games, such as basketball, volley
ball, and ping-pong.
