Students encounter traffic problems
The going was rough during enrollment as students packed the Kansas Union Bookstore in an exhausting effort to gather books required for spring semester classes. Faces seem gloomy, probably because of thinning pocketbooks and the resulting prospects of weekends in front of the tube until the next check arrives from home. Mass confusion, nonexistant books and the idea of lugging 30 pounds of books back home add nothing to the unhappy situation. If you like wall to wall books and people, the bookstore during enrollment is the place for you.

Peace activities top committee's concern
Peace Action Day has been scheduled for Jan. 15, said Mrs. Wes Santee, a member of the Lawrence Committee for Peace in Vietnam. The committee is sponsoring the activity.
One day each month will be designated as Peace Action Day, culminating April 15 in demonstrations concerning the issues of taxes, inflation and military expenditures, Mrs. Santee said. She also said citizens would be urged to take time from "business as usual" to demonstrate discontent with the spending of tax dollars for the war and for military projects.
The main objective of the committee is to bring peace to Vietnam, said I. J. Stoneback, a committee members. He said enough people talk against the war to make peace happen and the committee was organized in November for this purpose.
Mrs. Santee said work for the next few months would be centered upon educating people about the futility of the Vietnamization, the economic crisis caused by the war and the immorality of the United States' presence in Vietnam.
