NEED 1500 SPACES ON CAMPUS:
Parking Problem Plagues Car Owners.

Phone Walk-Out
By RUN WATTS
A critical slhortage of auto park-
ing spaces surrounding the Uni-
versity area has pushed the park-
ing problem into the limelight for
every local car owner.
University Secretary Herbert G.
Watkins, who is in charge of is-
suing University parking permits,
summed it up by saying, "In the
40 acre campus area, there just.
aren't enough, spaces for every-
one to park near his destination."

being scheduled, according to Mil-
dred 'Webber_ itc~e an ,e+
students revealed that many find
it necessary to park at least one
half mile from the center of
campus. One student remarked
that on a rainy morning he had
to arrive in the campus area 30
minutes before his class to find
a parking space.
It was estimated by Watkins
and Felix G. Sundquist, who is
in charge of issuing student
driving permits, that approxi-
mately 5,000 students, faculty
and administrative personnel
hold some sort of driving or
parking permit.
The University has provided
space for 1,000 cars in its restricted
lots, while the remaining cars must
be parked on the street or in public
and 'private lots. Capt. Rolland J.
Gainsley of the Ann Arbor police
traffic division set the number of
on-the-street parking spaces at
2,500 in an area surrounded by
Church St., Washington St.,
Thompson St. and Hill St.

officials and a few disabled stu-
dents.

"It is important that the peo-

have the space available," Wat-
kins asserted, "because the
proper functioning of the Uni->
versity depends on their being
on time."
"The University is doing all it
can to open up additional lots for;
parking permit holders, but space -
is at a premium," Watkins ex-

of a New Year's celebration at
7:30 p.m. today when the Indian

touch of Hindu tradition to cam-
pus.
The occasion is the observance
of Diwali and New Year's Day, the
most important days of the Hin-
du calendar.

COMPARABLE to the Christian
Christmas and New Year, the holi-
day'is celebrated in India in a
manner similar to the American
celebration of the holiday season,
according to Surendralal Gupta,
'52E, of New Delhi, India. Gifts
and sweets are. exchanged, and
bright candles light up houses on
the inside and out, Gupta said.
Fireworks traditionally spark
the observance of the festive
time, too, but the party tonight
will be tined down to meet the
surroundings, Gupta explained.
The Diwali celebration is open to
any interested students. Tickets
for the affair are 35 cents, and
can be purchased at the Interna-
tional Center.

Memorial Hall.
The exhibit entitled, "Sport and
Circus," brings together 81 paint-
ings, drawings and prints gather-
ed from museums, art dealers,
and private collectors throughout
the United States. Also included
in the show are several circus
posters, General Tom Thumb's bi-
cycle, and a carrousel horse.
* * *
THE EXHIBITION was assem-
bled by Prof. Jean Paul Slusser,
director of the Museum, who has
long felt that sports enthusiasts
ought to have a look at their
favorite hobby as put down on
canvas by the best artists. The
entire collection is devoted to
sports and the circus.
"In so far as it touches upon
matters of physical strength,
agility and cunning," Prof.
Slusser said, "this exhibition
should appeal particularly to
the thousands of sports-mind-
ed men and women at the Uni-
versity, a group keenly appreci-
ative of good performance."
Boxing is portrayed by the large
"Dempsey and Firpo" of George
Bellows sent from the Whitney
Museum.
Relating to the circus, "After
the Show," by Waldo Peirce, "The
Flying Cadonas" by John Steuart
Curry, and "The Blue Clown" by
Walt Kuhn are among other
works also loaned by the Whitney
Museum.

Military Duty
Benefits Told
By Crawford
Students facing possible mili-
tary service should look upon it
as a great opportunity, Dean Ivan
C. Crawford declared yesterday.
Speaking on "Prospects for the
Class of 1954," Crawford told the
22nd annual Principal-Freshman
Conference' that there are certain
benefits which will accrue to those
participating in military training.
* s s
THESE BENEFITS were listed
as:
1. An opportunity to develop
leadership.
2. An occasion fordone to develop
his self-reliance.
3. An opportunity to add to
one's education by traveling and
becoming acquainted with foreign
peoples.
4. A. chance to study at special
schools and learn skills which will
be of use in later years.
Provost James P. Adams, who
welcomed the 250 principals and
college admission counselors from
160 high schools and junior col-
leges, emphasized the fact that
the University is very interested
in each individual student.
He added that the University
would welcome any suggestion
from the high school representa-
tives as to how this relationship
could be improved.
At another session Dean Erich
A. Walter declared that the Uni-
versity is "a going concern for the
good of the student."
The conference concluded yes-
terday afternoon with talks on the
preparation of high school stu-
dents for entrance into the Uni-
versity, and their problem of ad-
justing to college life.
Open House
At Observatory
The astronomy department will
open its doors to visitors from 7:30
p.m. until 10:00 p.m. today at An-
gell Hall.
A short, illustrated talk on "Is
There Any Life on Mars?" by
Raphael La Bauve, in Rm. 3017
Angell Hall, will be followed by
the observation of Jupiter and a
star cluster from the Angell Hall
Student Observatory on the fifth
floor.
THIS IS an excellent time to
view the eastern sky from 8 p.m.
on because there are several bril-
liant constellations forewarning
the approach of winter, Prof. Haz-
el M. Losh, of the astronomy de-
partment, explained.
Some of the most beautiful
stars are unusually bright during
the month of November when the
heavenly stage is being set for
spectacular winter displays, Prof.
Losh pointed out.
An invitation is extended to
anyone who would like to come,
and children may attend if accom-
panied by adults, Prof. Losh add-
ed.
If the sky is not clear for direct
observation, the observatory will
be open for inspection of the tele-
scopes and planetarium.

Ann Arbor's Red Feather drive,
which began with a spurt, sagged
in the middle and finished plug-
ging strongly, was declared offi-
cially over yesterday at the Vic-
tory Luncheon held at the Allen-
el Hotel.
The "Victory" title was some-
thing of a misnomer because the
Community Chest campaign had
achieved only $110,000 of its $136,-
000 goal up until the time of the
luncheon. This represents about
81 percent of the quota.
HOWEVER, leaders of the drive
expressed optimism over making
the goal within the coming week,

Funeral Rites

Funeral services will be held for
Prof. Neil C. Van Deusen, who was
killed by an automobile Wednes-

Church in Flint.
Prof. Van Deusen, 44 years old,
had been appointed a full profes-
sor of library science last April.
The appointment took effect at
the beginning of this semester,
but he had since taken leave of his
office.1
Previously Van Deusen had been
acting director of the Extension
Division of the New York State
Library from 1948.
He was also a member of the
faculties of Columbia University,
Fisk University and the New York
State Teachers' College at various
times.
Born at Coldwater in 1906, he
was married to the former Milli-
cent B. Disco of Norwich, Conn.,
in 1944. She, together with a
daughter, Harriet Marie, are the
immediate survivors of the profes-
sor. Their home is at 1928 Lorraine

explaining that many contribu-
tions are still being accepted.
Broken down, the statistics of
the drive show that the Univer-
sity has attained 89.6 percent or
$19,724.56 of its $22,000 quota.
Last year the University over-
subscribed its goal, despite a $6,-
000 deficit in the over-all drive.

U' To Greet
Cheerleaders
Although there will be no pep
rally tonight, students will have
a chance to demonstrate their
spirit to 2,000 high school cheer-
leaders who will attend tomorrow's
game.
Coming from high -schools in
and around the Ann Arbor area,
the cheerleaders will attend the
first annual University Cheer-
leaders Clinic to be held tomorrow
morning at the Intramural Build-
ing.
IN THE afternoon, they will
take the field along with the
Marching Band and participate in
the half-time show.
A co-ordinated display will be
given by both the Band and the
cheerleaders, climaxed by a
roujing "Michigan Locomotive"
cheer.
The cheerleader's visit is being
sponsored by the Bureau of School
Service, the Marching Band, and
the University cheerleaders direc-
ted by Newt Loken, Wolverine
tumbling coach.
Weather permitting, the flash
card section will also go into ac-
tion at the Michigan-Indiana
game. A driving snowstorm at last
week's grid battle forced the Wol-
verine Club to cancel the display
it had planned for the Illinois
game.
