to be answered in booklet
A subcommittee was appointed
Wednesday by the Traffic Panel to
compile a brochure answering ques
tions on parking, registration fees
and fines on campus.

man, asked Mary Ellen Martin,
Barry Brooks, Dr. D. L. Woods and

school and the main campus were
brought up for discussion, but no
action was taken. The problems
concern road conditions at FM 60
and Agronomy Road.
There have been complaints
made for and against bicycle riders
in the vet school area. The commit
tee proposed the installation of a
warning sign to bike riders to ob
serve traffic laws pertaining to
them.
The panel heard a preliminary
report from Chris Lawson, head of
the motorcycle subcommittee.
Lawson asked that more motorcycle
parking be designated in Lot 60, ac
ross Joe Routt Blvd. from the Au
ditorium Complex. Stover pointed
out that Lot 60 is a support lot for
the Rudder Tower, and C. R. Car-
i gill. University Center manager,
has opposed previous attempts to
establish motorcycle parking in this
area.
D. L. Woods proposed an alter
nate plan of expanding available
motorcycle parking near G. Rollie
White Coliseum. Lawson accepted
the alternate proposal.
Stover said he wants to be careful
in establishing motorcycle parking
areas, and would like to be able to
provide maximum protection for
them. He considers the low blocks
which now separate the motorcycle
areas inadequate.
“For drivers backing their cars
out, motorcycles are hard to see,”
Stover said. “They can back over
two motorcycles before their wheels
ever touch the blocks.
Stover said he would like to see
some sort of fencing used to bar
ricade the motorcycle areas.
In his report Lawson also asked
that the gravel-topped area near the
M. E. shops be designated for
motorcycle parking, but it was
oointed out that this area will soon
be inaccessible due to construction.
Col. Melcher suggested that areas
in Lot 47 be set aside instead and
the panel voted to make the formal
recommendation. A decision is ex
pected to be made within a few
days.
In other action the panel heard
letters from Dr. Earl Cook, dean of
the College of Geosciences, con
cerning proper procedure for ser
vice vehicles parking on campus and
from Steve Eberhard questioning
the change in parking fines.
Eberhard made a formal request
on behalf of the SG to return to a
fine schedule of $2 for the first of
fense and $5 for subsequent of
fenses. Currently a five dollar fine is
charged for each violation. The
panel will reply to Eberhard, but
tbey decided that the present fine is
equitable and administratively
more feasible.

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia (AP) —
Saudi Arabia pledged Wednesday
to try to hold the line on oil prices,
or work for a nominal cut, at a meet
ing of oil-producing nations next
month in Vienna,
Saudi Foreign Minister Omar
Sakkaf made the promise to Secret
ary of State Henry A. Kissinger after
Kissinger met for 90 minutes with
King Faisal.
“The policy of my kingdom and
my government is that we keep the
prices as they are and at the same
time work for the lowering of the
prices to bring them down, albeit
symbolically, ” Sakkaf told Kissinger
as the secretary was leaving for Jor
dan.
“And if we could bring them
down more than symbolically we
would,” Sakkaf added. Saudi Arabia
and the other 12 members of the
Organization of Petroleum Export
ing Countries meet in Vienna in
mid-December to discuss oil prices.
Kissinger, who has been trying
during his Middle East tour to enlist
support from Saudi Arabia and Iran
to press for lower oil prices, expres
sed “gratification” with Sakkafs
comment.
Sakkaf coupled his comments on
oil with a statement of Saudi
Arabia’s demands against Israel.
“What we want, the foreign
minister said, “is the total with
drawal of Israel from occupied Arab
territories. The restoration of Arab
Jerusalem to its rightful owners
should come about, and that the
rights of the Palestinian people be
given back to them.
King Faisal spearheaded the oil
embargo against the United States,
and the supply squeeze against
Western Europe and Japan after the
October Arab-Israeli war a year ago.
stituents in the area the official rep
resents.
Senators are required by senate
by-laws to keep informed on legisla- kj
tive issues, to contact their con- E:
stituents and participate in senate
committees.
The board ruled if a constituent
presents adequate evidence that
senator has ignored a writ of man
damus, it will then decide whether
to hear a case for removal from office
or other remedial action.
The senate can impeach a
senator, for not fidfilling his respon
sibilities, with a two-thirds majority
vote.
Also at the meeting, the board
decided the procedure for issuing
injunctions, in election, constitu
tional and legislative cases, to stop
an ongoing or anticipated practice,
or reverse a previous practice.
The procedural motion that pas
sed specified that a signed, written
statement from any board member
shall be required to authorize an in
junction in election cases.
Signed, written statements shall
be required from at least three
board members to authorize an in
junction in constitutional or legisla
tive cases.
An injunction shall remain in
force until a hearing is requested to
challenge it.
The board would decide an in
junction appeal by majority vote,
like any other case.
