Bolduc Outlines Duties
Patrol Is Campus 'Watchman'
"We are simply night watchmen," said Lucien E. Bolduc,, chief of the University
Campus Patrol, summeriiing in a few words the functions and duties of the patrol.
Bolduc, who has been chief of the patrol for nearly three years, is a retired Army
colonel and served as professor of military science and tactics from 1951 through 1955 at
the University.
In an interview, he comment
ed on parking areas and facili
ties as some of the biggest prob
lems of the patrol. "When
people park in the wrong area,
they take up the space of people
who are assigned to that area,"
he said.
"The problem is to arrange for
the proper amount of over load in
each of these areas," he said. Ac
cording to Bolduc, these are 18
different steps to be taken before
making parking allocations and
judging the amount of overlead
in each area,
Bolduc said that in parking
areas which are assigned mainly
to students, you can figure up to
as much as 100 per cent overload
because of the constant flow of
students in and out of the areas.

In areas allocated to staff parking,
the overload is usually about 25
per cent.
Bolduc stated that "99 per
cent of the students and adults
in this community are law abid
ing" and if you just take the
time to explain to them why
restrictions are made and what
purpose they serve, the people
will obey.
"The trouble with most peo
ple," he said, "is that they can't
read. When people drive, they
don't bother lo read road signs or
pay attention to warnings posted."
On the subject of drivers, Bol
duc inserted a comment on wo
men drivers. "There is nothing
wrong with women di ivers, ex
cept they drive too slowly."
Turning to the patrol itself,
Bolduc said that if was first
called the campus patrol in
1932. Before that time it was a
part of the custodial services.
At present, three clerks, 22 reg
ular personnel and 30 students
are employed on the force.

"OW "PUBLIC POWER" ADDS
TO YOUR TAX BURDEN
One of the most unnecessary government spending
programs you could imagine is adding to your tax
]oad every year. Jt's the multi-billion-dollar spend
ing for federal "public power."
About $5,500,000,000 from you and other tax
payers has already gone for federal government
electric povcer systems. And $10,000,000,000 more
is proposed.
Yet it's unnecessary to go on spending more of
your tax money to put the federal government
farther into the electric business. Independent elec
tric companies like yours are ready and able to
supply all the electricity people will need—without
depending on your taxes.
Then why does this needless tax spending con
tinue? Only because most people don't know about
it. So spread the word among your friends and
As soon as enough people realize how
"public power" adds to their tax burden, they'll put
a stop to it.
WHEN "PUBLIC POWER" WINS—YOU LOSE!
Every time another federal "public power" proposal
goes through Congress, you are taxed to pay the bill.

"A greater bulk of our force is
on at night. Only three men work
during the day, but over half the
force works at night," he said.
There is always one officer on
duty 24 hours a day, explained
Bolduc. Two officers and two
men are also on duty during the
day. The officers ale out in the
,cruiser car and on the motorcycle,
and the other men remain at
headquarters.
At night there are three off ic
iers and 13 men on duty, he
said. These Men go into every
building on campus, with the
exception of the residence halls.

Bolduc emphasized the fact
that traffic violators make up only
la very small pact of the duties of
,the campus patrol. "The patrol's
:greatest job," he said, is done at
night—ptotecting this $lOO mil
