VOL. 61, No. 7 Encampment Studies Parking Regulations, Suggests Alternates By CAROL BLAKESLEE • City Editor (This is the second in "a series of articles explaining the rec ommendations from the 1960 Student Encampment.) This fall's new regulation barring student parking in the Fletzel Union lot led the members of Encampment to offer three alternate plans—each proposing limited student park ing at the HUB. The preferred plan would allow unrestricted parking in Kustoms Has Campus In Khaos It is a day like any other day except sex doesn't matter; for today, dear freshmen, is Kustoms Khaos Day. Frosh bcome open game during that whirlwind time that trzns forms the campus into a free-for all. Any freshman, male or other wise, can expect to be questioned on customs by any upperclassman. The spirit of the upperclassmen and freshmen this fall of 1960 has kept the tradition of customs not only alive but lively. Television has done a lot to keep vivid the legend of the Old West and Penn State customs are doing their share to promote the "wild and wooly" on the collegiate level. Yesterday an upperclassman corraled a herd of blue-horns in front of Simmons and whipped them into yelping the Nittany Lion. And have you head' the latest cheer—" Short Yell Piels." P-I-E- L-S, we love• Harry and Bert! Since the Freshman Customs Board has been *so big about it and created Kustoms Khaos, just to break things up a little, all that can be said to you, Frosh, is, "Cus toms comes but once a year . . .

Washington in Retros Election Year Delays Oath Repeal By KAY MILLS (Miss Mills worked this summer in Washington bureau of United Press International.) Election year caution stalled repeal of the non-Communist affidavit or "loyalty oath" in the National Defense Educa tion Act at least until next year. A bill to amend the act by striking the controversial state ment of beliefs passed the Senate on June 15. It was co-sponsored by Democratic presidential nominee Sen. John F. Kennedy (Mass.) and Sen. Joseph S. Clark (D.-Pa.). The House of Representatives referred the measure to its Com mittee on Labor and Education. Rep. Graham A. Barden (D.-N.C.), committee chairman, opposed to STATE COLLEGE, PA.. FRIDAY MORNING. SEPTEMBER 23. 1960 the HUB lot from 6 p.m. to mid night Monday through .Thurs day, and from 5:30 p.m. to 1:30 a.m. on Friday and Saturday. Members of the workshop on University expansion and student welfare, who worked out the sug 7 gestion, felt this would be an adequate compromise to satisfy both student and administrative factions. Albert E. Diem, vice president in charge of business affairs, ex plained to the workshop members that closing the HUB lot to stu dents had been necessary for four basic reasons: • Safety in the congested areas of Shortlidge Rd. near the HUB lot. •A need for parking facilities for visitors to the University. •A need for adequate parking spaces for faculty and staff mem bers. •A need for a more effective way to disperse traffic in that area. Workshop members felt that not opening the lot to students until 6 p.m. would keep traffic at a minimum during the 5 p.m. rush hour, while still allowing facilities for students involved in activities. Allowing student parking only in the evenings during the week end and not at all on Sunday, the workshop felt, would leave the HUB lot free for visitor parking, as well as leading to better traf fic dispersion. This recommendation will be brought before the SGA As sembly for approval at a fu ture meeting. SGA would then take the proposal to the proper administrative office. Should the suggestion not meet with approval, the workshop de vised an alternate plan for re stricted parking in the HUB lot by an allocation of a certain num ber of stickers to each organiza tion involved involved in activ ities in the HUB or Boucke. The workshop also recommend ed that two walkways be con structed on the north and south sides of the HUB lot, to increase safety for pedestrians. deleting the affidavit, is not run ning for re-election this fall, so was immune to "discreet" pres sure to change his stand, accord ing to a legislative aide of Ken nedy. The shortness of the post-con vention session also contributed to postponing action on the bill until a new congress takes over next year. Kennedy's aide, Frederick Holborn, said that the entire NDEA act may be revised next year. Some legislators, he added, are more inclined to tuck an af fidavit repeal in with general changes then. Holborn said the disclaimer statement was not in the NDEA act as originally passed by the House. It "snuck into the bill" through an amendment by Sen. Karl Mundt (R.-S.D.).
