money out of the president's $2200 budget.
3. A conference with Dean of Students Bernard L. Hyink.
Opposition to the survey arose at the Senate meeting last Wednesday when the financing aspect of the survey was voted down 16 to 9.
Next move was the suggestion of Greater University Chairman Frank O’Sullivan for a meeting of the three-man Finance committee to give the necessary money.
SQUELCH MOVE
That move was squelched yesterday after one of the three members told Parking Subcommittee Chairman John Truitt he was against the survey and that the finance committee lacked power to give the money and could not make recommendations to the Senate.
Padgett then decided to bring an end to the dilemma.
“Whatever expenses are necessary to carry out this survey will be approved by me" he stated. “Expenses for the Greater University committee will, as in the past, come ou* of the ASSC president’s budget of $2200. This money can be spent at the discretion of the student body president for any ASSC business that is not otherwise provided for in the budget. No ASSC Senate committees have specific budgets provided.”
FRATERNITIES HELP
Senate refusal to appropriate the necessary funds failed to stop progress of the survey, Truitt said.
“We were going ahead with that part of the survey which didn't entail expenses, in all good faith that the money would soon be available,” he said.
With the help of fraternity pledges, he explained, Brad Bassett has been measuring the parking space now available on streets and lots.
“The group has been counting the number of cars parked, subtracting the number parked in red zones, and then noting how much of the red-space area could probably be eliminated without blockine driveways, fire plugs, and crowding corners,” Truitt said.

Secy Hurt by Indian Prank
That nightmarish Stanford game is having its iasv repercusions for Lucile Wright, secretary to Dr. Fisher, financial vice-president.
Miss Wright has just received the final OK on X-rays made in the health office of injuries resulting from a post-game Stanford torpedo, thrown 23 she and friends were standing at 37th and Hoover streets.
.The torpedo, thrown from a Stanford convertible, was probably not intended to harm anyone since it exploded at the feet of the group, but bits of material lodged in two spots 011 Miss Wright's legs ana r.ecessittaed a trip to the Georgia Street Receiving hospital.
After being discharged, another trip wras made to a private physician who administered tetanus shots to insure against infection from gunpowder. As a final precaution, X-rays were made to ascertain if any particles remained in the flesh.
After ten days of waiting and wondering. Miss Wright has found she is not allergic to tetanus shots but she still feels rather bad about the $15 in fees.
Coliseum Workers
Coliseum workers may pick up their cards Wednesday 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. New men with applications on file wishing to work the SC-UCLA game may check at the game management office.
Thirty-one persons have been placed as leaders for youth programs throughout the city, according to Barbara Butterfield, Social Responsibility commissioner of this YWCA.
Volunteer workers have signed up for 2-10 hours weekly with hospitals, scout groups, playgrounds,
clinics, community houses, and church recreation programs.
The group, both men and women, includes lour persons enrolled in University Cbllege classes. One typical applicant served several years with a prominent marriage clinic in the city and has found she would prefer preventative work with children rather than rehabilitative work with adults.
ALL AGES APPLY Volunteers ranged from 17 to VI years of age and came primarily from the psychology, education, and journalism fields. The majority sought practical experience in their field, but some signed '.ip only because they enjoy the work.
The Volunteer bureau assigned jobs on the basis of the applications rather than personal interviews. Only three persona found their first assignments undesirable, because a careful effort is made to give each one the job most appealing to him.
YOUTH AID FAVORED Openings covered a wide variety of Community Chest agencies, and only one person from the SC group did not go into the field of youth guidance. She signed up for work at Sawtelle veterans’ hospital where her experience Till be utilized in organizing cnorai groups.
The centers receiving the largest share of volunteers were the Children's Orthopedic hospital and the All-Nations foundation, each of which received six.
Sophomores led the list with ten students, and approximately six came from each of the other classes, including graduates.
While 31 students represent a very small number of SC's total population, each person selected has shown an ardent interest in fulfilling his job.
A new- appeal for volunteers is being launched this week by personally contacting each student on campus who has no present activities.

Hyink. Opposition to the survey arose at the Senate meeting last Wednesday when the financing aspect of the survey was voted down 16 to 9. Next move was the suggestion of Greater University Chairman Frank O’Sullivan for a meeting of the three-man Finance committee to give the necessary money. SQUELCH MOVE That move was squelched yesterday after one of the three members told Parking Subcommittee Chairman John Truitt he was against the survey and that the finance committee lacked power to give the money and could not make recommendations to the Senate. Padgett then decided to bring an end to the dilemma. “Whatever expenses are necessary to carry out this survey will be approved by me" he stated. “Expenses for the Greater University committee will, as in the past, come ou* of the ASSC president’s budget of $2200. This money can be spent at the discretion of the student body president for any ASSC business that is not otherwise provided for in the budget. No ASSC Senate committees have specific budgets provided.” FRATERNITIES HELP Senate refusal to appropriate the necessary funds failed to stop progress of the survey, Truitt said. “We were going ahead with that part of the survey which didn't entail expenses, in all good faith that the money would soon be available,” he said. With the help of fraternity pledges, he explained, Brad Bassett has been measuring the parking space now available on streets and lots. “The group has been counting the number of cars parked, subtracting the number parked in red zones, and then noting how much of the red-space area could probably be eliminated without blockine driveways, fire plugs, and crowding corners,” Truitt said.
