1,655 Parking Tickets Issued
Zoning, Registration Violators Most Common
The campus police had given out 1,655 tickets by Sept.30.
The campus police had given out 1,655 tickets by Sept. 30. Chief Joe Skillman said the biggest problem faced by the police was with persons who have not read the parking and traffic regulations.
He pointed out that every student was handed a copy of the regulations at enrollment, but many violators had not read them.
Most of the tickets were for zone and registration violations, he said. There were 509 zone violations, 484 registration violations, 250 overparking, 200 city ordinance violations and 212 miscellaneous.
By Sept. 27, a total of 6,900 cars had been registered. Of these, 2,498 received permits to park on the campus.
Reasons for Permits
Permits are issued for physical disability, special duties, extraordinary needs, special loading zone needs, and for living extreme distances from the campus with no public transportation available. Chief Skillman said. Physical disability cases are approved by Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the Student Health Service.
The campus has a total of 1,795 parking spaces for cars with permits. Reserved for visitors are 51 spaces in the lot east of the Student Union. 12 in front of the Museum of Natural History, 6 behind Robinson Gymnasium, and 4 behind Flint Hall. A total of 74 spaces, mostly on the north side of Jayhawk Boulevard, are for 30-minute parking and 22 spaces are reserved for Watkins Hospital use.
The number of cars registered this year is greater than at the same time last year, Chief Skillman said.
"This is because car registrations are more nearly complete now than at the same time last year," he said.
"Others have speculated that the increased number indicated a total registration greater than the 1956-57 total of 8,820." the chief added.
New Parking Lots Planned
The 1956-57 total included sticker replacements, registration transfers and cars brought to school after enrollment. These additions amounted to about one-fourth of the total.
New Parking Lots Planner Chief Skillman said plans are being made for new parking lots, but they are not definite yet. He said the places will be around the edges of the campus and not on the Hill.
Campus police are on duty 24 hours a day, with a 5-man force at night and 6 in the daytime, including Chief Skillman. One of the night men is on permanent duty at North College.

Friday, Oct. 4, 1957
Revue officials said the change will shorten the program by about a half hour. They said it used to run over $2\frac{1}{2}$ hours and that the audience became bored toward the end.
Skit Deadline Oct.18
A general outline of the 12-minute skit each organization plans to enter must be turned in to the KU-Y office by Oct. 18.
These outlines will be reviewed by the production staff. In case of duplication the last house to turn in its outline will have to submit a new idea.
The school theme will be retained this year but it will be used in a more general way, the group was told.
Between-Skit Acts
Organizations interested but which were not represented at the meeting should see Shirley Andrish, Topeka senior, or Lynn Miller, Dodge City junior, at the KU-Y office.

Little Rock Students Quiet; Clergymen Unite For Order
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - (UP)—Nine Negro students entered Central High School under troop guard today and for the first time there was no demonstration from white students watching their arrival.
On previous days the white students had greeted the Negroes' arrival with a noisy outburst, some shooting and jeering, others clapping and shouting encouragement. Today the crowd remained silent. One white boy waved a Confederate flag, but made no outcry.
The school newspaper called for a "sensible, peaceful neutrality."
School Paper Comments
In an editorial, student writers said "No matter what our personal opinions, we cannot be proud of the violence that occurred around our school that made it necessary for the use of these federal troops."

Officials felt that the walkout yesterday of about 40 white students eliminated most of the agitators that have caused incidents at Central since it was integrated with the addition of nine Negro students.
WILL WE BEAT CU?—Jack Hanslip, Kansas City, Mo. junior, conducts an interview on his program, "This Week In Sports," on KUOK, campus radio station, with varsity guard Bob Kraus, Massillon, Ohio senior.
Meanwhile, authorities turned down requests today for the arrest of three 101st Airborne Division soldiers accused by a 47-year-old railroad man of assaulting him.
Clergymen Act
A dedicated group of 50 clergymen worked in union today to weld the churchgoers of Little Rock into a powerful moral force that can replace armed soldiers as custodians of peace and order.
Officials hoped the efforts of the church leaders, combined with those of a group of 25 business and professional men, would prove the turning point in Little Rock's quarrel with the law of the land.
The peace movement, which has the hopeful endorsement of President Eisenhower, aims to restore the peace so that 101st airborne troops may be moved out of Little Rock with an assurance of no more trouble.
Don't Worry Prof, Checks Are Due Monday
Faculty members whose wives won't let them back into the house without a paycheck are assured by the business office that the payroll is expected to be completed by Monday despite delays caused by new appointments, staff additions and enrollments.
Keith L. Nitcher, University comptroller, said he expects the checks to be issued Monday.
The business office sends time sheets to faculty members between the 25th and 30th of each month then compares these with its records. The totals, if they agree, are distributed to the department budgetary accounts.
Time sheets are then sent to Topaka where checks are written and sent to the business office.
Hourly staff records are sent to the business office on IBM cards which are computed, then punched, and the total pay charged to departmental accounts. The cards are then sent to Topeka where checks are written.
A payroll delay in early fall is the rule rather than the exception because the chancellor's office must send a list of all faculty members to the business office. This list usually arrives late in the month and extra time must be taken for processing.
If your Kansan has been late there's a reason. Blame it on the wicked virus. Nine staff members have missed assignments this week because of the flu.
But The Kansan Must Carry On!
They include the society editor, a sports co-editor, an assistant managing editor, a copyreader, the circulation manager, two advertising salesmen and two reporters.
