Halls' parking shortage continues
By GAIL MIROSTAW

The parking crunch continues for scholarship hall residents, despite two newly designated parking iots that have brought to students with Alumni Place permits.
Approximately 400 students live in scholarship halls. Only 79 parking spaces were available adjacent to the halls at the first of the semester, according to L.L. E. W. Fenstemaker, director of University parking.
However, 153 Alumni Place parking permits were sold, Diane Sharp, correspondence clerk for parking services, said.
Although 40 new spaces, added recently because of the parking shortage, have provided some relief to scholarship halls and dormitories, holders are still without parking spaces.
Twenty of the new spaces for resident parking are in an alley between Louisiana and Ohio streets, north of 14th Street. This one-half block from the scholarship halls.
TWO BLOCKS AWAY from the scholarship halls, at 12th and Louisiana streets, a lot now marked for Gertrude Sellards Pearson (GSP)/Corbin parking, is available to students with Alumni Place stickers.
Although signs have not been changed to indicate Alumni Plaza parking, Fentemaker said new signs would be installed as soon as possible. GSP/Corbin will still be allowed to park on 12th and Louisiana streets, Fentemaker said.
"We decided to allow Alumni Place parking because there are usually only two or three cars in the lot. We thought we could have them use of the parking spaces," he said.
Last year, Alumni Place students were permitted to park in the GSP/B coronin lot.
However, this year scholarship hall residents who parked in the lot were

was marked only for SCSI,
"I don't think violators had to pay a fine. I'm sure we'd make an adjustment, because it was in the works to change to Alumni Plaza place," he said.
John Harris, cochairman of the Contract and Housing Committee, said, that although the lot at 12th and Louisiana streets was one of the best lined lots, the two-block walk to the scholarship hall presented a safety problem.
"It (the lighting) is better there than behind Stephenson and Pearson," he said, "which is interesting because those ladies are wearing it on 12th heat if any cars parked there."
Any court action taken to determine the boundary would have to be on the federal level, according to Troy, Kan., lawyer Jack Euler, a former state representative. He said his local state court can pass upon the state claim which affects the rights of two states.
could determine whether they can agree on a settlement. Youndahl said it would likely take two years for any final agreement and the need for congressional ratification.
Youngdail said yesterday's 9-10-minute public session would likely be the only open to the general public, although future meetings would be held among the community.
Youngdahl said it would be at least a month before the 12-member committee, and it will probably take three to four years.
The disputed land includes not only the
Beech Grove Memorial, but rich
river bottom farmland.
Earlier in the day, Robert A. Cold snow, legislative counsel for Kansas, told legislators from the two states that increasing value of agriculture land in the former Missouri River bed made a determination of the question necessary.
"But the problem is the terrible lighting from the parking lots to the halls."
Fenstemaker said no extra security precautions would be taken in the area.
"Cars should be locked, and of course, we do patrol, but the University is not responsible for damage to cars on University property," he said.
pose of the meeting was to outline possible questions, and how they could be achieved.
His comments came at a public hearing, attended by 40 residents from northeast Minneapolis.
State Rep. Mark Youngdahl of St. Joseph said at a public meeting Wednesday that there would be no quick settlement of the boundary question, which arose 25 years ago when the Missouri River changed course.
State boundary will need Congress' OK
ST. JOHSEPH, Mo. (AP)—Any agreement reached between Missouri and Kansas on a border dispute caused by the meandering Missouri River will ultimately have to have the approval of Congress and could be two years away.
