Indoor Parking
(ACP) — A University of
Iowa graduate student had park
ing problems. He drives a
motorcycle.
"It’s not a bike so it can't be
parked in bike racks,” he said.
“It could park with cars, but
I can’t get a sticker.”
Finally, he figured out a way.
"I drove it in the back ramp of
the chemistry building — I work
there — and took it up the ele
vator. Then walked it to my lab
. . .Here I parked it next to my
lab bench. It’s tiny, and doesn't
hurt anyone. . .“But by 3:05 —
that's what it says on my ticket
— I got hit.”
The offense? There were four:
"No sticker, no parking zone,
parked against traffic, and not
within the lines.”

Draft Dodgers
(ACP) — After years of put
ting students through the ma
chine, the University of Califor
nia committed the final igno
miny — the distinctions between
the male and female students
have finally been erased, says
the Daily Californian.
At least that seems to be the
case since the University began
putting draft deferment forms,
bureaucratically known as "SSS
Form 109 for undergraduates”
in registration packets sent to
women students.
Happily, most of the women
students weren’t too distressed
by the complete disregard of
their sex. One smiling frosh co
ed said, “I thought it was a sign
of their non-discrimination.”
A spokesman in the registrar’s
office explained that the cards
were automatically put into all
of the registration packets sent
out. "However, the instructions
were clear,” she said.

“The trouble with opportu
nity is that it always comes
disguised as hard work.”
