Planning Heads Senate Action (Continued from page 1) ate that usage of these lots hy faculty was not good—6 to 15 per cent in the Hamilton lot and 40 to 60 per cent in the Alder lot —and that 307 more student park ing spaces could be obtained by opening these two lots. He also said that the lack of parking on the west side of the campus is creating problems with residents in that area of the city, and htat the city may have to restrict student parking in that area if some place closer to campus wasn’t found for stu dents to park. Senator-at-large Roger Leo asked Senate Campus Planning Committee Chairman Errol Ham mond about the possibility of us ing part of the half-mile strip of Willamette River-bank taken in by the University’s recent boun dary evtensions in solving the parking cramp. Hammond was skeptical about such development, pointing out that part of that land was under water right now. “I wouldn’t look forward to de veloping that,” he said. Two other parts of the bill, ask ing for designation of more scoot er and motorcycle parking, and that areas for foreign and sports Reapportionment Suggestions Senate Committee Hears Proposals By CHERYL ADAMSCHECK Emerald Staff Writer The Senate Reapportionment Committee met Thursday after noon to hear student proposals for Senate reapportionment. Spencer Block, graduate in psychology, presented his pro posal which includes a suggestion for a random selection of sena tors from all those who volunteer for service rather than a student election of senators. He believes the present system violates the idea of equal oppor tunity and claims the students AIRLINE PILOT -^TRAINING £ If you meet these bosic requirements and t are willing to acquire the necessary train .Jj ing, you may qualify for a flight crew position with a Major Airline: Height - 5* 7- to 61 4" Ago - 20 to 27 Vision - 20/20 uncorrected Education - 2 years of collego Pass Qualifying Examinations For Bulletin Contact lEIIISSCMtl IF AVUTItli • Phone 259-6152, Area Code 406 Logan Field, Billings, Moatona have the “most to gain and the least to lose by change.” Block calls for one student representative for every 400 stu dents, and one faculty representa tive for every 50 faculty mem bers. Spencer Block’s further pro posals are recorded on the edito rial page of this issue. Del Pancake, a freshman co - op resident, also presented his proposal for Senate reapportion ment. He called for a Senate of 100 members. Campus residences would be di vided into four departments: (1) co-ops, (2) Greek houses, (3) dorms, and (4) off campus. Each department would elect represen tatives according to the per cent of University population therein. Officers would be elected in this manner. A chairman of com mittees, called the chancellor, would be appointed by the pres ident of the ASUO. He, in turn, would appoint a parliamentarian, a sergeant at arms, a chaplain, and the chairmen of committees. Sessions of a senate this large would be held only twice a term. Most of the minor problems would be handled by the officials. Pancake stated that he felt a body of 35 was not big enough to represent the students effectively. Jerry Norton, Senator, called it “the most radical proposal we’ve heard yet.” new “Skyline” design... let's play solitaire l You win! Here is one of the most magnificent solitaires ever designed.

Nites 345-7746 car parking also be set aside— both to help better use available space—caused some objections. Several senators were skeptical about whether the motorcycle section would, as the bill stated, “encourage more students to drive motor scooters and motor cycles.” That portion was dropped. There were also jabs at the part covering foreign cars. Grad uate Student Representative Ben Bronfman said he didn't think the request was practical, since many foreign car drivers might use larger parking spaces any way. But, after two votes, debate on the bill was ended, and it passed, after the votes were counted twice. Condemns Center The Senate also passed a bill condemning the site of the new computer center. The bill assert ed that “judicious land use was not made by siting a one-story building at a time when available space is fast diminishing.” An objection to consideration of the bill was raised by Donahue, but failed to gain the two thirds support of the Senate. Hammond, in speaking for the bill, asked the Senate to “be aware of the creeping urbanism on the campus.” Phil Barnhart said he thought it was “ridiculous” for the Sen ate to take a stand on a building that’s already being built, ynd Greg Foote objected to the use of the word “condemned" in the bill, because of what he called a “connotation of wanting the building torn down." Urges Fortitude But Senator-at large Dave Clark said, “If we don't have enough fortitude to say we don't like a building in one place, we’ll never have enough to say we don’t like one somwhere else,” and urged the Senate to take a more asser tive role in campus planning. Bronfman added, "If beauty is a criteria (for architecture on campus), then every building on this campus ought to be blown to bits.” The vote on the bill was to to 10, with two abstentions.
