Innocents
To sound out opinion on the pro
posal calling for a system of stick
ers for student cars In order to
alleviate the campus parking prob
lem, petitions are being distributed

dents. Innocents urge all those in
favor of making the change to
eign.
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 thus con-
test student opinion on parking proposal
gesting the university parking, the
8 y stem will entail the issuing of
stickers at a maximum cost of ten
cents to, all students 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 with
out stickers will first be given
warning tickets and then tickets
carrying a fine.
Uni regulation.
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
attempt to clear up the parking
congestion problem.
Investigation on the part of the
campus police force has revealed,
according to Sergeant Regler, that
a great number of cars which be
long in downtown parking areas
are parked on the campus. Accord
ing to Bob Aden, president of
Innocents, if the plan of student
stickers in put into force, faculty
members will be "given tickets for
parking in areas other than those
set aside for them.

to co-operate in this respect)
