Footbridge use hurts Autzen parking income Yes, the opening of the University’s footbridge to Autzen Stadium did have an effect on the amount of parking revenue collected at the stadium Satur day. “About 500 fewer cars parked there,” said Tom Jernstedt, TV debate set for Dellenback, Weaver Congressman John Dellenback and his Democratic challenger, James Weaver, will debate in an open meeting of the Eugene Press Club Thursday night. The meeting will be held at the studios of KEZI-TV, 2225 Coburg Rd. and begins at 7 p.m., with the debate beginning at 7:30. The debate will be televised by both local TV stations. The public is invited to the meeting, but only press club members or representatives of the news media will be allowed to question the candidates. Moderating the discussion will be Henny Willis of the Register Guard. Format for the program will include three-minute opening statements, three-minute an swers to questions and a two minute closing statement for each candidate. 1* Sundae Sale Dairy Queen Thursday only The Oregon Daily Emerald is published Monday through Friday during school year, except during exam and vacation periods.

Grattan Kerans Editor Russ Mustola Business Manager administrative assistant for the athletic department, comparing Saturday’s game with Idaho to last year’s game with that team. About $3200 was collected from parking fees at last year’s game, Jernstedt said, while ap proximately $2700 was collected Saturday. Most of the money goes to the athletic department, he said, but part goes to the Eugene Jaycees, who work at the stadium each Saturday. Jernstedt said he felt the footbridge will get “more and more use as it gets more publicity.” Most of the people he talked to, Jernstedt added, had nothing but good comments about the bridge. “The liked the fact that it is only a ten minute walk.” Some complaints were leveled at the gate guard last Saturday when bicyders were not allowed to pedal across the bridge to Autzen Stadium. However, USC supporters will see bicydes on the footbridge this weekend. Leland Lorange, of the Physical Plant, told the Emerald the ban on bicyders will be lifted. “The only times the footbridge may be used is when a member of the athletic department is present,” Lorange said. This rule, the result of an agreement with Southern Pacific Transportation Co., which has a railroad track on the University side of the bridge, is meant for the safety of pedestrians. There are no signals or safety devices at the crossing. Norval Ritchy, Athletic Director, said the original plans include a tunnel for the train, rather than having the crossing stay in place. Religious transfers may lack credit Students planning to transfer credit to the University for religious courses from church supported schools had better hurry. If the University Admissions Policy Committee adopts the same policy which many other Oregon state schools now follow, no credit will be given to any religion course taught at a church-supported college. At present such courses are transferable, provided the University has a similar course, or the University religion department signifies the course in question is deserving of credit. In a Tuesday meeting of the Admissions Policy Committee, Vernon Barkhurst, University Director of Admissions, said many state schools, such as Portland State University and Oregon College of Education, give no credit for any religion course taught by a church supported college. These schools do give credit for courses which may be related to some aspect of religion but are taught by a history, philosophy, or English department. The purpose of these restrictive policies is to deny credit to religious courses which are doctrinal in nature and do not stress objectivity in learning. The present University policy allows a transfer student to petition the Academic Requirements Committee if he is not automatically granted credit for a course. The Admissions Policy Committee hopes to adopt a more standard policy toward granting credit for religious courses, as an excessive number of petitions for credit has kept the Academic Requirements Committee bogged down.
