Stricter parking control requested
A lack of parking space in the evening and the failure of the University Parking and Traffic Service to control the lots around campus have many faculty members upset, the chairman of the University Senate Parking and Traffic Board said yesterday.
The chairman, Ralph Krone, professor of physics and astronomy, told the University Senate executive committee that the university is preparing to install a chic outdoor staircase and created a chic parking situation at KU.
Krone made his comments while presenting the parking and traffic committee's annual report to SenEx. The report recommended restricting some parking lots and asked for permission to hire an additional ticket officer.
Two traffic officers work full time for Parking Services, Krone said. They are trained to detect dangerous vehicles.
BUT KRONE said they were too few to control all of the University parking lots, especially at night when few student assistants were able to work.
The result, according to the report, is a chaotic parking situation on campus between
Krone said that some faculty members who taught night classes or gave exams at night were upset because all of the parking spaces were already filled by student cars.
Krone said the addition of another parking officer would allow the parking service to patrol more lots. Currently many students are ignoring the restrictions on some lots because they know there is little chance they will be issued a ticket.
Some students in carpools deliberately are parking in restricted lots and splitting the cost of any tickets they receive, Krone told SenEx.
"Students are carpooling with as many as six people in a car," he said. "They are willing to split the $7.50 fine if there is only a one-in-four chance they will be caught."
Krone said he hoped added enforcement would make such practices too expensive.
Krone said he hoped to ease the evening parking shortage for faculty and staff by extending current parking restrictions on three lots at 24 hours a day.

the computer center, are currently
rounded to 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday
through Friday and from 7 a.m. to 12 p.m.
Saturday.
The report also recommended that access to campus be restricted during enrollment.
seven days be allowed for violators to pay
payments fines.
Currently cars have free access to the campus during those times and violators are given 14 days to pay fines before a penalty fee is assessed.
The Parking and Traffic Board recommendations will be implemented in September if they are approved by the University Council next week.

Blood donations reach 495 pints, 255 below goal
The KU blood drive almost reached its daily goal yesterday but fell far short of its overall goal, Jonelle Birney, chairman of the drive, said last night.
Wednesday's donation of 231 full pints and two partial pints brought the three-day total to 495 pints and eight partial pints—255 pints short of the 750-pint goal.
"I really don't know how to explain it," barry said. "There were a lot of people that said, 'What's wrong?' I never said."
Birney said no problems occurred during the drive and there were plenty of student vehicles.

Birney said the Red Cross would conduct another blood drive in June in the Community Building, 11th and Massachusetts streets. A KU blood drive also has been planned for next semester. No date has been set.
Last year's drive brought in 538 pins, but was still short of the same 750-pin goal. This year's goal was set by the Panellene Association and the Interfraternity Council.
