area are getting a bad opinion of the entire university,” he stated. DEGRADING EFFECT “Perhaps, if the students, themselves, realized what a degrading effect tlie minority is creating, the number of daily parking citations will decrease.” the captain asserted.
“This deliberate violation of tlie parking laws is resulting in the issuance of as many as 00 citations a day to campus drivers. We will devote as much attention as our personnel facilities will permit to minimizing this problem,” Captain Hays warned.
COOPERATION NEEDED Stressing that student cooperation is necessary in cleaning up the parking problem, he believes that the student parking lots like that behind Science hall and at the Menlo and E ’josition location are helping to figiv the parking problem.

WASHINGTON. Mar. 30— <l'.P>—
Powerful senate backing appeared to be lining up tonight behind the plan of two Republican leaders to hand the final GOP tax reduction bill to President Truman on a “take it or leave it” basis.
Chairman Robert A. Taft. R., O.. of the senate GOP policy committee, and Chairman Eugene Millikin,
R.. Colo., of the senate finance committee, said they saw no point in trying to compromise with Mr. Truman on the issue.
‘TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT’
If he wants to veto the tax-cut, they said, that’s up to him.
Chairman Styles Bridges. R., N.
H., of the senate appropriations committee, immediately endorsed the Taft-Millikin strategy.
“I favor that stand.” he said. “Let the tax bill be a Republican bill passed by a Republican congress. It should be offered the president on a take it or leave it basis.”
He added, however, that he believed it would be later than Apr. 15 before the senate could take up its tax bill. The house passed its GOP-sponsored legislation last week. The house-approved version w’ould cut personal taxes by 30 per cent on net
incomes below $;.ooo: 20 per cent on Manaqement Society incomes between $1,000 and $302,000. j . ®	'

Eph Konigsberg and Grover tied for first in the impromptu class while Grover won a third place and Konigsberg a second in the extemporaneous division. Kerfoot also placed third in the discussion. Konigsberg and Ed Stegman gained the finals in oratory while Alex Googooian participated in the finalist division.
In the women’s division, the SC team of Delta Sneddon and Anita Norcop placed second in debate. Miss Norcop gathered more points
DORSEY'S OPINION
Engineer Dorsey stated that the pressure of traffic on the former two thoroughfares' precludes angle ; parking. In permitting the exten-j sion on 36th street the engineer’s j office would ask the police commission to disregard the law that definitely forbids such parking. The recommendation will probably be put into effect, he said.
Later, angle parking could possibly be permitted on additional small non-thoroughfare streets in this district. As the campus expands throughout the university-owned area the engineer's office would con- j sider other proposals.

Witold Malcuzynski was one of the last students of the famous composer-artist Jan Paderewski which makes him heir to the royal mantle that this Polish patriot wore as the greatest pianist of his native country.

OPPOSE RETROACTIVITY Senate leaders repeatedly have expressed opposition to the retroactive feature. Millikin said he believed the senate bill would make July 1 the effective date.
“As to the amount and graduation of cuts, we shall want more information before deciding on that.” he said. “It is safe to say however, that our bill will have graduated cuts which will be substantial. It w’ill not be retroactive.”

While agreeing that angle parking might be extended in the future, Dorsey warned that the solution to SC’s parking shortage lay outside of against-the-curb parking.
“It is fundamentally unsound to expect parking to be taken care of against the curb.” he said. “Space will have to be found off the street.” PARKING PRIVILEGE “It must be realized." Dorsey emphasized. “that parking is a privilege and not a right. The right of using a public street is travel and entry. The privilege must never be allowed to interfere with the right.” One helpful measure might be to open University avenue to parking, Dorsey suggested. The avenue has been closed to parking in response to a university request and is forbidden by law at present for that reason, he said.

During this ceremony students who happen to be outside are asked not to look skyward. The copies of the Wampus were tied to the birds’ feet rather hurriedly this morning, and some of them might become loosened and drop.
HOMEWARD VIA UCLA After the seagulls have landed on the tiles of the Union, they will take off, one by one. swoop into the Wampus office, drop their magazines, and then fly back' to their home bases at the beach, buzzing UCLA en route.
Wampus saleswomen will be on hand to pick the magazines up and sales will begin.
“It has been suggested that some students will doubt that the Wamp is to be delivered today in this unusual manner.” Willie concluded. •But I’m sure that most of the students at SC are gull-ible enough
to believe it.”
