Borough to Aid
Hardship Cases
The borough will “make every effort” to assist persons
who cannot find overnight parking because of the 2 to 6 a.m.
parking ban which went into effect in the fraternity area
this morning, Burgess David R. Mackey said yesterday.
He also said the borough will re-evaluate the situation
at the end of the time allotted by the University for tem
porary parking on the campus,
and will make temporary ar
rangement* where “a legitimate
need still exists.”
This will be done by establish
ing certain “parking blocks”
where overnight parking would
be permitted until more perma
nent arrangements could be
made, according" to Mackey.
The University has approved
temporary parking on the old
vegetable gardens behind the Ag
ricultural Engineering building,
beginning today and extending
until the Thanksgiving vacation.
Report to Campus Patrol
The temporary parking is open
to all students who cannot find
a place to park overnight down
town. Students must report to the
Campus Patrol office to apply for
a special permit for the area with
in two days after they have
moved their cars to the plots.
Each student applying for a
permit will fill out a question
naire, copies or which will be sent
to the Association of Independent
Men or the Interfraternity Coun
cil. and to the borough manager's
office.

Presidents Discuss
Space Utilization
The presidents of Pennsylvania
colleges and universities in their
closing meeting at the University
yesterday turned to the problem
of utilization of space.
Dr. John Dale Russell, chan
cellor and executive secretary of
the New Mexico Board of Educa
tional Finance, discussed some of
the work he is doing in the field
of space utilization.
He said the study is especially
important at this time when col
leges are faced with more and
more young men and women
seeking" to enroll. I
Dr. Russell is currently prepar
ing a manual which .vill assist
college officials to conduct studies
of their space requirements and
by this attain more efficient use
of their facilities.

To Seek Off-Street Parking
Through answers on the ques
tionnaire of where the student
would normally want to park, the
borough hopes to arrange off
street facilities within a reason
able distance, Mackey said.
He said he is sorry for the in
convenience this method may
cause some people, but that it is
the only way to get an accurate
I picture of the deficiency of park
ing spaces.
Supported Alternatives
Mack'.-v said there are two al
ternatives to the parking ban
which he favors. As long as two
and one-half years ago, he sup
ported a plan for alternating one
side parking, and he has also pre
viously proposed that the borough
build and maintain municipal lots
in the outlying sections of the
town. Neither of these proposals
was passed by the borough coun
cil.
Attempts to Create Demand
The other solution to the park
ing problem, he said, is the ban,
which attempts to create a de
mand which will result in the
development of private parking.
The borough is trying to main
tain a constructive attitude and
not to place impossibly restrictive
rules on anyone, and will “try to
help on an individual basis every
! so-called ‘hardship case’,” he said.

campus living quarters for wom
en students in need of financial
aid was presented to the Women’s
Student Government Association
Senate last night.

ident. asked Miss Shogren to head!
a committee to look into the pos
sibilities of such a project.
