With power vested in them by
the university, members of Inno
cents society announced today that
they will begin their drive to clear
campus parking spaces for stu
dents this coming week when they
will circulate petitions over the
campus calling for a system of
stickers for student cars.
With the parking situation be
coming more and more acute since
parking meters in the downtown
area have caused Lincoln shoppers
and businessmen to park their cars
on and near the campus, the sys
tem will entail the issuing of stick
ers at a minimum cost to all stu
dents driving cars. These stickers
will allow students to park their
cars anywhere on the campus
other than those areas set aside
for the faculty. Cars without stick
ers will first be given warning
tickets and then tickets carrying a
fine.
The university, thru its power
to regulate university grounds,
also has the power to regulate and
restrict parking as it sees fit. This
power has been vested in the In
nocents in order that they may at
tempt to clear up the parking con
gestion problem.
Petitions will go out to the stu
dents this coming week to enlist
them in the movement. Heretofore,
lack of student interest in such a
project has not warranted a
change. However, according to
Robert Aden, president, if the stu
dent body will back tlie men's
honorary in its efforts and assure
it full cooperation, the plan will go
into effect soon after the petitions
are signed.
Investigations on the part of the
campus police force have revealed,
according to Sergeant Regler, that
a great number of cars which be
long in downtown parking areas
are parked on the campus. The
head of the campus police force
pointed out the fact that the num
ber of cars parked on and around
the campus on Saturdays is the
best indication of the situation as
it stands.
The first step in the direction
of clearing up the campus parking
situation has already been taken
for members of the faculty in that
they have special license plates
which entitle them to park in that
area north of social sciences which
is reserved solely for that pur
pose. According to Aden, if the plan
of student stickers is put into
force, faculty members will be
given tickets for parking in areas
other than those set aside for
them.

Wc arc sorry,
too many ads!
Due to a huge volume of ad
vertising in today's paper and
an almost impossible printing
situation which prevents the
DAILY from going to 16 pages
today, many news items and
feature items must be withheld
from publication. As the DAILY
is under contract obligation to
most advertisers and as omis
sion of requested advertising
would harm future publications,
the DAILY cannot omit advertising.
