said.
The assignment for the stu

na Planning Commission has de
voted about three years to re
search on the project. Reis said.
“Besides, we are concerned
with being city planners.'' he said,
“but we should be aware of the
pi olilf ms involved in urban de

needs of the community t’uoueh

The problems that confront Al

Reis said. Cities are decaying in
their downtown shopping areas
because of traffic difficulties and
the heavy uiban growth
Reis told his class that these
cities depend greatly on the
shopping districts for survival,
and cannot afford to have the
shoppers give all the b'-siness to
out-of-town shoppirg areas be
