Traditional 'Weekend'
Dates Back to 1890 s
Junior Weekend originally be
gan around the 1830's with ora
tions presented by the junior
class on the steps of Deady Hall
By 1905, each junior class had
its own flag, and they were
flown from Deady Hall and Skin
ner’s Butte on oration day. But
the sophomore class attempted to
tear down the flags, and all-day
battles soOn developed between
the two classes.
In 1929 the Water Carnival
swimming and canoe races—was
originated to stop the sophomore
junior struggles. The swimming
races were in three divisions:
women, non-varsity swimmers,
and varsity swimmers.
By 1939 the Water Carnival
became the Millrace Olympics.
The highlight of the events was
the tug-of-war between the fresh
man and sophomore classes: if
the sophomores won, the fresh
men had to continue wearing
their green beanies. If the frosh
won, they became sophomores by
running the gauntlet (hack pad
dle line) and burning their bean

World War II industrialization
and highway relocation ruined
the clean running water of the
Millrace, but this didn't stop the
Millrace Olympics. In fact, the
canoe joust and the tug-of-war
have become the traditional
e\ ents of competition.
The next Millrace Olympic
events are scheduled for May 3,
with paired living units compet
ing for the symbolic olive branch.

Friday is Hello Day — the
day to say “Hello” to every

front of the SU.
Traff ic Story Corrected
There were errors in the Student Traffic Court appeal case as
reported in the Student Court article, page 3 of Friday's Emerald.
The $10 line was imposed not for the defendant’s delinquency In
paying three $2 parking tickets, but for the display of a staff parking
sticker on the defendant’s, a student, car.
The three tickets led to the discovery of the sticker misuse,
however, as stickers and license numbers are checked as a matter
of routine.
The defendant did not petition for a hearing in Traffic Court, he
petitioned for a waiver of the $10 fine. 11 is petition was denied, and
he was summoned to Traffic Court for his sticker violation, which
is a violation of the Campus Parking Regulations set up by the
University under the authority of the State Hoard of Higher Edu
cation. The Physical Plant is the authority delegated to enforce
these rules.
As such, the $10 line was outside the jurisdiction or Traffic Court,
and therefore cannot he considered a sanction under the Student
Conduct Code.
Since the tine is not a sanction, the sanction of disciplinary pro
bation and revocation of driving privileges imposed by Traffic < 'ourt
did not constitute double jeopardy.
The case could have been tried originally in Student Court under
a violation of Section I.B. 2.c. of the Code misuse of University
identification cards. It was tried instead in Traffic Court for three
reasons:
• Under Section II.C. 4 a of the Code, Traffic Court has original
jurisdiction over all violations of the Campus Parking Information
1 and Regulations;
• The violation is specifically covered in Permits Section 5 of
the Campus Parking Information and Regulations; and
• Under Section II.C. 4c. (2) of the Code, Traffic Court is
allowed to impose sanctions permitted by Section I.B. 3 f. of the
I Code.
