pay the salaries of the officers of
the newly-organized national CAC
and the local “districts.” It is plan

garages offering CAC discounts, so
that members may take advantage
of them wherever they are driving.
Oregon students have jumped at
the idea, of course, which offers a
saving in operating their automo
biles. Membership of the local CAC
district will be limited to 1000 mem-*
bers, Nickerson said. Membership
cards may be obtained at Wick’s
Richfield station, at the Bee Line
garage, or from Nickerson.

CAC is an organization of, by,
and for students. Its policy form

students.
It operates with an informal, ver

Nickerson emphasized, however,
that Wick’s Richfield station and
the Bee Line garage had been very
cooperative in getting CAC started
