University College students who continue to leave their cars parked in those nice convenient spaces along the red-painted curbs of University avenue can expect illegal parking citations, police warned last night.
For the past three evenings officers from University station have been putting warning notices on the autos. But students who persist in parking in the I illegal zones can expect tickets in the future.
Technically, the cars could be tagged immediately but the police are issuing the warning slips
as a courtesy to evening students who seem to be under the impression that all curbs are white at night.
Police officer Otto Venohr, in charge of the detail, expressed amazement at the extent of the illegal parking on campus. Fifteen hundred of the white warning slips were issued Monday and Tuesday nights.
Monday night, so many warnings were issued that University station's stock of the forms was exhausted and a new supply had to be hurriedly obtained from another station.

ist, but he needed more experience Ramirez Abstains
Louis Ramirez, AMS president, had little to say about the disputed magazine. “In my four years at SC.” he said. “I’ve never once bought a copy of the Wampus, nor do I intend to start now.”
Many students, however, stuck by the Wampus and artist Shestack. “As a senior,” said an admirer, “I have really come to appreciate Shestack’s calendar. Perhaps I would have been shocked if I were a freshman, but four years on this, campus have taught me to take such things in stride. Above all, I like Shestack's sparkling t. rity and realism.” ‘Interesting Another student, though favoring the Wampus, differed on the point of realism. “Shestack is interesting,” he said, “but I'd rather see more of the real thing than his myopic interpretations.”
Herb Burstein. Pi Lambda Phi, panned the magazine in general but marveled at Shestack's cartoons. “Shestack is great.” he said. “I only wish the Wampus would use more of him rather than all that fluff thej- pirate from other humor magazines.”

Music’s student crop will perform with the University orchestra, under the direction of Ingolf Dahl, in its annual spring concerto program in Bovard auditorium Friday night at 8:30.
Outstanding campus instrumentalists will be heard in concertos with orchestra accompaniment.
Harold Hillyer and Harold Hines, playing first and second trumpet, respectively, will be soloists for the Concerto for Two Trumpets and Orchestra, Manfredini!
Hillyer, a candidate for a master’s degree in June, played first trumpet for two years with the Wichita Symphony orchestra, after being graduated from the University of Wichita. He is a native of Colorado.
Harold Hines, on leave of absence from his teaching post at Iowa's Drake university, has taught in secondary schools as well as at a university in southern Illinois. A tour of duty with the Army Air

Soloists performing the Symphony Concertante, Opus 84, Haydn, are Tony Sayre, oboe; George Koteles, bassoon; Tikey Zes, violin; and Marie Manahan, violoncello.
Sayre, active in many campus musical programs, played for Music at Noon in Hancock auditorium yesterday, and was a featured soloist last week in the SC Concert band’s annual concert.
Tikey Zes, composition and violin major from Long Beach, has held for several years the Harley Hamilton scholarship for being an outstanding musician and scholar.
He is a student of Glenn Swan, assistant professor of music.
According to Dr. Dahl, Marie Manahan is one of the most outstanding, if not the most outstanding, cello players on campus. She is a student of Professor Stephen De'ak.
George Koteles, who handles bassoon assignments for the orchestra, is an architecture major.
First Piano Concerto in G Minor, Opus 25, Mendelssohn, will be played by Sue Sarafan, who also holds a Harley Hamilton scholarship.

Professor's Pie-Slicing Act Stirs Reaction Across Nation
SC’s blueberry pie is spreading all over the map of
the U.S.
Lynn Clark, assistant professor of English, served blueberry pie to his magazine short story class during a final examination last semester.
The Associated Press carried the story across the nation as it was distributed by the SC news bureau after appearing in the Daily Trojan.
Clark recently received a letter from a woman in Muncie, Ind., with a clipping from the local paper there. She wanted the recipe for the pie.
“Mrs. Clark, who baked the pie her husband described as out of this world,” is going to see that she gets it.
along to the University 'Senate. This is the first time in ASSC Senate history that a subcommittee of the Senate and a committee of the ASSC have met to consider common problems.
Information Brochure Plans for orientation include a brochure about SC, to be sent with registration information, special preparations for advisement by different schools in the university, and special Troy days for freshman and upper division transfer students.
Plans for a compulsory orientation course were not recommended at this time. Fraternity and sorority rushing would be curtailed so thaat these activities would not interfere with the Troy days, Niebuhr said.
Housing Plans Told
McClaskey outlined plans for an Independent council housing survey. He said that in some cases city and state health codes are not being adhered to in university housing.
Wiggins lauded a report from the senior class by “Just Plain Biilf Adams, which told of the successful package-deal project. No final* for seniors may become a reality if another Senior council project meets faculty approval, Adams said.
Bud Hauslein, chairman of this semester's orientation program asked for an expanded program next year, including compulsory attendance at welcoming days for all new students.
I Senate recognition was given to a new Aeneas hall group — the House of Aeneas.
Allen A. Arthur, reporting for the Student Wages committee, cited the case of students working for their doctorates who received 75 cents an hour.
The 65 cent to $1.15 wage scale at SC compares unfavorably with that of UCLA, which is 85 cents to $1.30, Arthur said. Los Angeles City college pays its readers double the present wage of SC readers, he said. ASSC president Al Wiggins said aht he will try to get a response from the administration on the matter of higher salaries.
Arthur's report was one of many given at the Senate’s “report night” for committee heads stirred into action by demands of Wiggins.
After the reading of a report by Social Chairman Marilyn Wolf. Wayne McClaskey, Independent council representative, told senators that the “social needs of the campus are not being met.” He said there is a great need for social events outside the Row and that SC is “socially sick.”
Recommendation Dropped A recommendation by Miss Wolf that a member of the Social committee be made chairman of the homecoming dance was stricken from her report. As it now stands, the chairman of homecoming will appoint his own headman for the dance.
The social committee chairman also recommended continuation of the Calendar committee and asked that the deadline for closed dates be set at the end of the third week of a new semester.
