In other wrords, sophomores, from the 1957-58 academic year on, will be denied right to keep a car on campus unless they main tain a "C" average. FEE The report also recommends a $2.50 registration fee assessment to car owners. Such a fee would be used for the construction of additional parking lots on cam pus, and for enforcement of traf fic regulations.

Those who knew ex ceptional singing burst into spon- wood. sophomore .. cars beginning with I are not wholly responsible. The town- of Chapel Hill, the Universi ty administration and a rapidly growing population in the vicinity must be charged with some respon sibility. Further, the Commission ralizes that any solution to, or ame lioration of, the problem of con gestion will require, in order to be effective, the concurrence of the continued use of the town officials of Chapel Hill, the University ad ministration and faculty and the Board of Trustees. GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS First, the Commission wishes to go on record as opposing any lim itation of student cars on the grounds of principle. Secondly, the Commission is not convinced that limitation of stu dent cars will, in the long range view, completely solve the prob lem. Chapel Hill, like every 'other town of our acquaintance, has a parking problem: In a real sense, the student body has become the scapegoat of the issue. And, while most students do not pay taxes in Chapel Hill and thus are not alto gether on a firm footing to voice their wishes in the town councils, we are mindful, and we feel that the merchants of the town are mindful, of the great economic contribution by members of the student body to the town at large. In short, we feci that restriction efforts are directed at students largely because they are the most convenient target. Third, we are making several general recommendations concern ing automobile limitation solely as the result of being able to find no other solution, realizing that this is not the complete answer. However, quite apart from any principle whatever, we are forced to make some recommendations which involve, restriction of stu dent carst We do this, not because we are persuaded that there is a direct correlation between car ow nership and academic performance, but simply because we feel that of the many 'car-owning 'groups in Chapel Hill, i.e. merchants, facul ty members, etc., the students are the only ones upon whom the re striction can be enforced and the group that has the least demand ing claim upon car use. We are hopeful that this decision will be interpreted as a demonstration of good will on the part of the stu dents in doing their share in sol ving the problem, and we hope it will elicit cooperation from all other parties in the way of pro viding more parking space in the near future. The Commission recommends that: 1. Freshmen entering the Uni versity in the fall of 1956 and thereafter be restricted from hav ing an automobile during his first academic year at the University. 2. This restriction shall also be applied to all sophomores in the academic year 1957-58 and there after who shall not attain to a "C" average during their freshman year. 3. Commuters, veterans and phy sically handicapped students shall be excepted from this rule when so designated by the office of stu dent affairs. J 4. Violators of the restriction regulation, persons whose automo biles do not display a registration sticker, persistent violators of Cha pel Hill regulations shall be tried by an Established Traffic Court, and an ascending scale of punish ment and fines should be applied with all fines placed in the student government general surplus. Such punishment and fines should be HILDE GUEDEN metropolitan opera star $2.50, and $3.00.
