permissible for a student to use his,
car. or a family-owned car, for social,
personal, or any other purposes, when
the car is driven by a non-student

use an automobile must adhere strict-
ly to the terms of his permit. Before
any driving is done, student permit
tags must be attached to the State
license plates in such a manner as to
insure easy visibility. Any act of driv-

will be considered a violation of thej
Ruling and will be disciplined accord- 1
ingly.
All permits must be renewed when
the 1939 State license plates are re-
quired or as soon as the new tags are
purchased. At such time, new sets of
permit tags bearing the current license
number will be issued at no addition-
al cost to the holders. All permit tags

Education Association and who have
not received enrollment blanks or an-
I nouncements through other channels,
I may secure the necessary information
(Continued on Page 4)
Where any appreciable saving in
transportation costs is realized, stu-
dents may drive their cars to Ann
?arbor and place them in dead storage
until vacation periods. This provision
will not be available to students whose
homes are relatively close to the Uni-
versity, for example, cities within a
150-mile radius of Ann Arbor. Such
an arrangement when approved will
not entitle the owners of the cars to
any special consideration with re-
spect to temporary or week-end driv-
ing privileges. Full information on
stored cars, including name and ad-
dress of owner and location of storage,
must be reported to this office be-
fore the beginning of the school year.
After that date, cars may not be
brought to Ann Arbor, unless the cir-
cumstances are first approved by
this office.
The operation of a car by an out-of-
town student, in and about his home,
will not be considered a matter of
concern to University authorities pro-
vided: (a) The car is not driven
through or within the immediate
vicinity of Ann Arbor. (b) Sdch driv-
ing does not involve a violation of
any law or traffic ordinance.
Students within the following
groups may apply'for exemption from
the Ruling by calling in person at the
Office of the Dean of Students and
reporting the make, type and license
number of the car. (a) Those who are
26 years of age or older. (b) Those
who are receiving credit for not more
than six hours of academic work per
semester. (c) Those who hold Uni-
versity positions which entitle them
to the faculty rating of instructor or
its equivalent.

The Biggest Show Value
of All Time
It is the quick and easy way,
and especially economical after
7 any night or any time on Sun-
days, because long distance
rates for calls to most points
are lower during those periods.

shown here, see page 6 of the
