Voting Booths, At Last
At last, the Student Council has obtained vot
lnglooths to use at all-school elections. The latest
information available to me, is that booths will be
placed in the At and city Unions, in Ferguson
hall and In another spot yet to be determined. This
set-up sounds very good.

manding as well as inconvenient, the Student
Council, In cooperation with the faculty, has taken
steps to provide a parking system which will best
meet the needs of both faculty and students.
It would be wise If students would realize at
the vry beginning, that they cannot have a Uni
versity without some instructors. The faculty is
probably aware they would not have a Job without
students. Since we have recognized, therefore, the
necessity for both faculty and students in order to
have any institution, we should end now any sug
gestion by either party to prohibit use of vehicles
by the other. Instead, we might concentrate on
the matter of finding parking space.
At present the parking issue stands as fol
lows: Council members have been issuing parking
permits throughout this week. Car owners. living
outside an eight block radius, have until today
to secure a parking permit Beginning next week
tickets will be given to violators of the system.
Since enforcement does not begin until next
week, any attempt to evaluate the system so far
would be futile. If the system is to be effective
at all, car owners must park cars in assigned
spaces.
Tours of parking lots were made Tuesday
and Wednesday by campus police and the Student
Council president. Several instances were noticed
The Student Council, in cooperation with
eampus police, is using every means to provide
the best solution for campus drivers. Promise
has been made by the Council and faculty to
revise areas if the lots are not used by assigned
drivers. Efforts are being made to secure 150
spaces lost during the summer by building pro
grams and other projects.
Naturally it is impossible to determine now
the success of the new parking system. Reserve
judgment until. the plan actually has a chance to
prove itself one way or another.
Pulling The Wool?
Who pulled the wool over whose eyes was the
question facing Student Council members at their
first meeting.
Last year the Council had posters printed urg
ing students to "Vote Yes for the Constitution"
for the vote on the proposed constitution.
Wednesday, grinning sheepishly, Council Treas
urer George Wilcox, admitted to members that he
had approved printing bills from last spring
which included not only the Council's "Yes"
posters, but the opposition's "Vote No" literature.
What George had just recently discovered was
that the opposition had "No" posters printed and

Jerry's roommate is Dean,
handsome star of the team and
campus Romeo. He takes Jerry
in tow. tries to teach him a few
plays, both on and off the field.
Jerry also threatens the coach's
sanity while restoring his father's
faith in heredity, and there is the
final suspicion that the Dean of

never be the same again.

Rev, Rex
God Gave Man The Atom Bomb,
Said 'It Is In Your Hands Now'
It would not take too much imagination to
imagine that God released unto man the secret
of the atom to relieve Himself of the decision He
must face as to the fate of the tiny planet, Earth.
After 1900 years of preaching, praying, martyrdom,
and sacrifice He saw nothing but continual carn
age; brother hating brother, nation fighting na
tion. Rather than hurl the final flash, he gave
to man the power to make his own destructive
thunderbolt
One can imagine easily that He stands at
the parapet of heaven gazing down at Earth
sadly, yet hopefully, saying, It is In your
''bands now."
What we do with what we have In our hands
is the concern of the Religious Student Houses on
the edge of our campus. An educated man is a
man with power. He can inspire hope or he can
engender fear.
At a crossroads in Tennessee, there are two
signs. One points left four miles to Oak Ridge
SstAnwjiQjtbL
where the atom bomb was made, the most destruc
tive display of power the world has yet seen. The
other points right six miles to Norris Dam, the
largest of the TVA system, the most constructive
use of power yet devised by our government. And
at the crossroads stands a little white church,
pointing the way more clearly than either of the
signs.
The University student is coming up that
road in Tennessee. The church, through its
campus representatives, the religious student
houses, must be there to help point the way to
a constructive use of new found power.
As God says, hopefully, "It is In your hands
now."

There Is a somewhat naive assumption shared
by a great many people on this campus that one
of the primary functions and duties of our Stu
dent Council is to protect the interests of the stu
dent body. This would seem to be reasonable
enough, for, although the connection is somewhat
dubious, the members of the Council are supposed
to be our representatives.
In the past four years I have had ample
opportunity to study the quiverings of this group
as they vaecillated back and forth on the prob
lem of eampus parking. Daring that time, which
has been laced with riots and other student dis
turbances, periodie releases from Student Coun
' cil headquarters, third floor. Union, have told of
great strides towards the problem's solution.
So far the only thing conc3te has been the
issuance of parking permits. This is a chore that
our present service-minded Council seems to find
so odious that they are unable to keep the issuing
booth open at the scheduled hours for lack of
Council members to staff it
Now, as a final stab, at every turn of the
wheel the student sees faculty parking lots a,
b, c. d, e, and so on through the alphabet. Sure
..you've got a sticker but what good Is It? You
and I who play "ring around Sosh" in our cars
every morning, can do nothing about this situa
tion as Individuals but the Student Council as
our representatives can do plenty If they really
care.
How about it Council are you inteersted In
the students? Are you going to get us a fair break
from the administration? pr are you just going
to keep on taking surveys? We are waiting, George!
