Parking Area Pro Pe rt y Rights Plea
To Increase Reaffirmed -
By SHARON McKINZEY
I niversity students will have 2,000 new parking places
m six new parkin" areas before next fall quarter, ac
cording to Marvin Van Vleck, director of Traffic and
Security for the University.
One of these new lots, lo-1 or cinders on the lot.
Also on the improvement
list is the Boggs Hall lot which
will be enlarged this summer.
On the other hand, 500 stu
dent parking spaces currently
in use will be lost by at least
summer quarter. Woodruff
parking lot will be blocked off
when construction is begun on
the new Journalism-Psychology
Building and the Payne Hall
parking area will be lost.
“We may have to rezone to
equalize zone B better when
the two parking lots are lost,”
said Van Vleck. He added that
this rezoning would probably
involve rearranging zones B
and C. This measure, however,

cated behind the TEP House
on Baxter Street, is already
under construction. This lot
will be surfaced during summer
quarter and be ready for use
by next September, said Van
Vleck. This area will accom
modate around 125 cars and
will probably be a zone B lot.
Van Vleck also reports an
anticipated 400-car capacity
lot to be constructed this
summer west of Lumpkin
and Oloverhnrst streets.
This area, which will likely
ho zone E, will help provide
adequate parking spares for
the new dorms now being
constructed on Baxter Street.
The two new dorms will have
some 250 parking spaces each,
providing approximately one
parking space for every four
students residing there. Both
dorm areas probably will be
zone E parking.
A new all-zone parking area
is now under construction in
the triangle be; ween Waddell
Street, new Florida Avenue and
new Hall Street.
This lot will hold approxi
mately 350-400 cars. Since this
will be only a temporary park
ing area, it will not be paved,
but, according to Van Vleck,
there probably will be

WSGA Polls Coeds
About Rules Change
By MEG GROSS
Coeds opinions on the barring of women from men’s
apartments are among the views the Women’s Student
Government Assn, hopes to determine from a survey re
cently taken in University women’s residences.
Other questions concerned
drinking, wearing shorts and
slacks, signing out, overnight
guests and curfews. Women al
so were asked to tell which
rule they break most frequent
ly-
The 21 question forms,
covering the major WSGA
rules, w rre anonymously
filled out on Jan. 20 by wom
en in dormitories and sorori
ty houses xvho are the mem
bers of WSGA.
Results are now being com
piled by the WSGA Rules Com
mittee, headed by Hanna Led
ford. Miss Ledford stated that
the questionnaire is the first
in a program of research to
find out what women think of
existing rules, what changes
should be made and generally
how they feel about being gov
erned.
WSGA suggestion boxes
have also been placed in all
University Women's residen
ces.
Although there is a yearly
revision of the rules submitted
by WSGA to Dean Louise Mc-
Bee, Miss Ledford stated, this
is the first time an attempt has
been made to find out directly
how coeds really feel about
rules
Figures for each question
will be compiled from the wom
en residents as a whole, she
added, and results will in no
way reflect on individual dorms
or sororities.

False Alarm
By DIANNE MARTINY
The campus huddled un
der a clean blanket of new-
fallen snow last Wednesday
and scores of anxious stu
dents hovered over their ra
dios, patiently awaiting the
glad tidings of eomfort and
joy.
At 11:45 p.m., a disc-
jockey's voice sliced into the
atmosphere of tense anticipa
tion. Then it rang out. “This
is the official announcement
that the University of Georgia
will be closed tomorrow."
And bedlam broke loose.
Shrieks, laughter and gasps of
relief echoed throughout dormi
tory hnlls. Spontaneous hoote-
nannys broke out in the cor
ridors.
(Continued on Rage Fight)
Every seat was occupied and
dozens of students were stand
ing along tin* walls and outside
the door ns segregationist Mad
dox reaffirmed his plea for gov
ernment restoration of private
property rights.
“If a mnn can’t go to his pri
vate property to escape from
affairs or from praticipating In
things he doesn’t want to, then
there is no other place for him
to go.
“The President of the U. S.,
the Attorney General and mem
bers of Congress have the right
to remove unwanted guests
from public property, und I de
fend their right to do so. But
your right to remove unwanted
guests from your private pro
perty is greater. A private cit
izen's rights are greater than
any public ones.”
SEGREGATION ISSUE
He continued saying, "Segre
gation is not dead as an issue
in Georgia. Race is an issue all
over the world. Lester Maddox
can’t solve it and Martin Luth
er King and ‘Light Bulb’ John
son can't either."
Maddox said as governor he
would “promote a program of
honesty, truth, patriotism and
liberty such as you’ve never
seen In Georgia.” He said he
would have several advisory
boards composed of people ta
ken from all walks of civic life.
He touched upon the problem
of education saying, "In edu
cation, we need many tens of
millions of dollars more. We
cannot do right without doing
right by our teachers. We can’t
expect teachers to teach if the
anti-provety program is going
to give them $19,000 a year to
be bunts.”
He said this was the amount
some proverty staff workers
are paid.
Commenting on "Operation
Headstart” he said, "They

granddaughter into that thing.

New Athletic Dorm Underway
By KAY NEWSOM
The most recent building
under construction on the
University campus is the
athletic residence hall which
will house 164 male ath
letes.
Construction of the new
hall, located behind the
Coliseum on the parking lot
adjacent to the tennis
courts. Is being supervised
by Joel Eaves, director of
the Athletic Department and
Richard C. Armstrong, di
rector of student housing.
The (64 residents will
include all men on full
time athletic scholarships.
Any extra spaces will be
given to athletes on part-
time scholarships.
Armstrong said there are
two advantages of having
all the athletes living to
gether. One is that they can
be contacted much more
easily when needed for
meetings, practices and
tutoring lessons.
Another advantage is that
their eating habits require
special items during train
ing which the athletes can
receive in the hall’s dining
room.
Armstrong added that in
visiting other campuses
which have separate housing
facilities for their athletes,
he has found that living
apart from the other stu
dents did not "excommuni
cate" them.
“We did not find any
situation in which relations
with other students were
poor.
"Ttie athletic residence
hall will have a dual pur
pose,” said Armstrong.
"One purpose will be to
give the athletes a place to
live which will hold their
Interest beyond a place to
sleep. To do this, a study
room with capacity for 30
or 40 men is located on the
second floor of the middle
wing.
"Along with recreation
rooms, a dining room, and
central air-conditioning,
the new hall features
four bed-room suites with
ARCHITECT S PLAN FOR ATHLETIC RESIDENCE
an adjoining bath. These
bedrooms will accommo
date eight hoys.
“The other purpose of the
hall is to serve as accommo
dations for conference
groups which meet in Ath
ens during the summer.'The
study room with Its lurge
blackboards and the privacy
of one hath for every eight
people are advantages of the
hall which older people at
tending the conference will
enjoy,” Armstrong said.
The architects, Williams
and Dean of Atlanta, have
designed the building
similar in structure to the
Pharmacy Building. It will
have outside corridors with
separate doors to each room
like a motel. Not having an
inside corridor reduces the
amount of noise always pres
ent in a residence hall.
Williams and Dean also
designed Hill Hall, Borkb,
Church. Creswell and other
student housing on campus.

pany of Athens received the
contract which allows them
one year from December
1965, to complete the build
