OREGON DAILY VoL LXVII E mer aid UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1966 EXPERIMENTAL COLLEGE UNLIKE OTHERS Page 8 No. 20 By Planning Committee Parking Crisis Said Possible By JEAN SNIDER Kmrritid Stair Writer A definite parking crisis could hit the University in the future according to opinions expressed at the Campus Planning Com mittee meeting Thursday. "Although at this time we do not have a crisis in the parking spare situation on campus,” said George Andrews, professor of ar chitecture, "spaces are being re placed by prospective buildings while the number of people who will be driving to campus is in creasing.” The Campus Planning Commit tee discussed the long-range traf fic problems at length in their regular meeting Thursday morn ing in Johnson Hall. The committee heard a report of the subcommittee to study the possibility of charging for parking in order to alleviate the problem of limited on-campus space for automobiles. This com mittee was unanimous in its rec ommendation that the Univer sity should not institute a charge at this time. This sub-committee distributed a questionnaire to some 140 uni versities and colleges similar in si/e to the University. They found that some 68 per cent of those responding do charge for park ing space on campus. Also, the report stated “Appre ciably more schools charged stu dents than charged faculty and staff.” Two yean ago this Uni versity abolished the student Index Sports . pages 4-51 Editorials .. page 101 Classifieds page 9 Campus Briefs page 3 Entertainment pages 6 7 Today's Events .page 8 ; PL-3 Schedule page 91 charge for parking on the grounds that it was an inequality to a certain segment of the Univer sity community. The problem facing the plan ning committee now is to facili tate the movement of traffic through and about the campus. The situation is becoming serious on those streets which are city owned, such as University Ave. A long-range plan which the committee has been working on is the closing ofT of 13th Street and extending 18th Street through to Vlllard Ave. This would stop the flow of traffic through the center of campus.

Kennedy (D-N.Y.) will speak at Oregon State Univer sity Monday, according to OSU student body president Housnu Ozyegin. Congressman Robert B.

Viet Nam Future Conclave Theme "Where do we go from here?" is the central theme of the ASUO sponsored Viet Nam Conference to be held Monday afternoon in the Student Union. "We want to stimulate people’s thinking," says Bill Allen, chair man of the ASUO department of speeches and debate, “particular ly with regard to the Hatfield Duncan rivalry." „ Allen said tfie ASUO sought an early fall term date for the conference in order to assure a tie-in between the conference and the November 8 election, in which Viet Nam is a key issue. "We want to get students in volved.” The conference, set up by ASUO President Henry Drum monds and co-ordinated by Allen, is modeled on last winter's Pov erty Conference, and will host three well-known experts on for-1 eign policy in an all-afternoon conference beginning at 3 p.m. Robert Scalapino, director of the Political Science Department at Stanford University; Mark Raskin, director of the Institute for Policy Study in Washington, D C.; and Sanford Gottlieb, poli tical action director of the Com mittee for a Sane Nuclear Policy (SANE) will each deliver speech es on their individual position concerning the Viet Nam ques tion, and answer questions follow ing their speeches. The three men will meet for a panel discussion at the condo sion of the speeches. Raskin, considered an ‘'all-out opponent" of the Johnson ad ministration on Viet Nam, will open the conference with his speech at 3 p.m. Gottlieb, who has been describ ed as being pacifist in philosophy, will speak following Raskin. Gott lieb was part of a fact-finding mission which visited Viet Nam in 1965, and has met with officials of both the North and South Viet namese National Liberation Fronts. Scalapino, known as a Johnson administration spokesman, will (Continued on f1nnc II) Senate Asks Universal' Course Survey By LARRY LANGE Emerald Newt Editor "Resolved: That the Senate of the Associated Students recom mends to the general meeting of the faculty that a Course Reaction Survey be adopted on a universal basis throughout the University in the school year 1966-67.” That’s the conclusion of a bill that was the last item of business on the Senate’s agenda Thursday night. It provided a rather lengthy conclusion to the Senate session, as well. The bill, written by Senator-at-large Roger Leo— who was also director of the ASUO Course Reaction Survey project—is a recom mendation to the senate of the University faculty that the faculty consider the recommendation at its next meeting on November 2. For a while it appeared that the bill might not have made it through the student Senate, although the Senate barelv reached a quorum Thursday. Leo admitted that the book was not as successful as he and others had hoped it to be, but presented his bill as a means -of "making the Senate's position clear.” CONTRADICTORY PHRASE Seizing upon one of the criticisms of the survey, Senator-at-large ■ Greg Foote asked Leo to reconcile the apparently contradictory ; phrase “voluntary universal.” Leo replied that there was a strong but vocal minority among the i faculty that was very much opposed to the survey—and to making it universal. He said he was interested primarily in getting genera? faculty approval right now. Chuck Stout, senator-at-large, then asked Leo about how the project would be financed. Leo replied that the administration would finance the project. “This is its proper locus,” he said. “This is where it should be, because as students, we don’t have any business sending out infor mation to faculty.” He pointed out than an increased printing of the Course Survey Bulletin next year would lower the break-even point to where the project would get itself out of the red. MAY PAY STAPP “We may even be able to pay staff members out of the receipts.” “A professor can be outstanding and yet not affect the majority,” said Marvin Feuerberg, also a senator-at-large. He said the survey was “a good thing to have, but we’re missing a lot in this particular i vehicle. i “We’ve been forced into a position where we say ’We’ve got this bulletin and we want you teachers to get in line.’ ” He said he thought that the format of the survey should be changed, to “make up for the deficiency—that on the whole, people (faculty) rated in the survey came out better than average.” Leo replied: "The evaluation form itself is not very acceptable. But, in comparison with other forms I’ve seen—and I’m speaking in the realm of about 50—this survey had more detailed informa tion than any other program in the country.” He assured the Senate that a new format was in the works for | the survey, and that the publication would eventually have an edi | torial board to more closely supervise the composition of the <Continued on page 2) Earth-Moving Begins On Stadium Photo by John Wrigant CONSTRUCTION has begun oil the Autzen Stadium, scheduled to be completed in the fall ol' 1967.
