The Campus has 400 parking spaces and about 1200 day school students, he said. The school charges a registration fee of $7.50 per semester for autos, and park ing spaces are available to regis tered cars on a first-come first served basis. Ogontz Campus Director Cole man Herpel said in yesterday's Philadelphia Daily News that the University is trying to help the students, but that property owners in the neighborhood have caused the acute parking situation. Stu dents have been deprived of park ing close to the campus by re cent "No Parking" signs, he said. Students of the commuter cam pus are fined $25 for parking an unregistered car on a school lot, a minimum of $1 for parking on neighborhood streets and in at least one case, an extra $25 was added .to the original $25 fine because a student narked on a lot without permission, Cameron said. It is reported that studenuts are collecting names on a protest pet ition, and that nearly all of the 1200 day students have signed it. Plans are being formulated to obtain increased parking facilities over the summer, Stanley H. Campbell, director of special projects, said, but added that he does not "know where they are parking now." —Collegian Photo by. Rick Bower WHAT IS IT???

Medical care for the aged has become a prominent issue in the 1960 presidential cam paign, with Democratic and Republican platforms taking opposing stands on this issue. Vice President Richard M. Nix on and the Republicans propose the development of a health pro gram that would provide the aged with protection against burden some costs of health care. The Republican plan suggests that this program be carried out on a "private enterprise" basis. Beneficiaries would be provid ed with the option of purchas- Disarmament Gets Top Billing at UN UNITED NATIONS, E.Y. (il')—The UN General As sembly's main Political Committee agreed yesterday to give disarmament top billing on its list of hot East-West issues for debate. Both the United States and the Soviet Union agreed to that course but actual pros pects remained dim for any im mediate break in the long-stand ing deadlock on actual disarma ment negotiations. After long procedural wrangling the committee gave second spot to President Eisenhower's African aid program and third to the question of independence for Al geria. Agreement to put disarma ment ahead of everything else in the 99-nation committee came after a surprise proposal from newly independent Ni geria that the Eisenhower pro gram be given the No. 1 spot. But after the United States, the Soviet :Union and a number of other nations stressed the desire to see disarmament taken up first, the Nigerian delegate, Jaja Wac huku, said he Would be satisfied to have issues related to Africa dropped to second place. U.S.' Ambassador James J. !Wadsworth expressed hope that lEisenhower's proposal be placed as high as possible on the com mittee's work schedule. But he Isaid the United States had al !ready made clear in assembly de ' bate it gave disarmament top priority. Eisenhower proposed in his • assembly speech Sept. 22 that the United Nations consider a broad program for the indepen dence and development of the newly independent African na tions. Wadsworth said the United !StatesS would present a prelimid nary outline of ideas that might! be included in such a program, Nei indicated other members of the! committee, especially the African! representatives, would have to be consulted before definite plans could be presented.

The proposal, drawn up by Wal ter. Damn (U.-Sr.), suggests that SGA appropriate funds from its budget to be used only for radio broadcast time and printed post er displays containing pictures and qualifications of candidates. Cabinet members approved the i main idea of the bill and offered iseveral suggestions meant to make the restrictions of the pro; posal more implicit. Members of Cabinet agreed unanimously that a bill of this nature is a necessity to raise the standards of campus elections. In the past, candidates have been required to use personal funds during the campaigning period. This year, if the proposal is ap proved by Assembly, $7OO would be appropriated for the publicity of the two elections—not more than $3OO in the fall and the re mainder in the spring. With SGA paying for the cam paigns, it would be possible for any student to run for an SGA office or Assembly position with out having to consider the extra money involved, Cabinet felt. Since Darran's bill was not ;drawn up in time for the Rules !Committee to put it on the agen- Ida, it will have to be brought lup on the Assembly floor tomor !row night. It must have a two jthirds approval vote by Aseinbly Ito be added to the agenda. If it is added, it will then be up for ,discussion and a subsequent vote. A Key I FIVE CENTS
