Parsons, director of traf- cfcnd security. JlParsons said planned expan- on of the Halbouty Building lill cause the loss of about 200 idilty/staff parking spaces in le lot, which is behind the Reed IcDonald and Halbouty build- ^Construction of a physics and hgineering building next to the wtlotron, to begin in May or line 1983, will eventually cover he rest of the lot, leaving only bout 40 or 50 spaces for service thicles, he said. [The lot now contains more lan 500 parking spaces. |‘We are experiencing a lot of rowth now, so things aren’t ing to be as easy as they once re," Parsons said. “Unfortun- qly, I think professors would per have parking than te- lure." Recording to the traffic reg- lations, he said, the cars which ormally park in Lot 7 will go to 3ts 50 and 51 by Zachry En- ineering Center. This will dis- ace day student and random arking from those lots, he said, m short-range solution for the larking situation, which will go nto effect in September, has ieen decided on, Parsons said. [The plan includes the follow- ig details: |i»Day student parking will be llowed on New Main Drive om Texas Avenue to the Sys- jem Building, but not along the Tele. I *Red permit parking will be Bowed on the Coke Street bicy cle lane by the Corps area. ■•The section of Coke Street from Lewis Street to Jersey Street will be for day student parking. •Both sides of Throckmorton Street from the president’s house to Jersey Street have been designated blue permit parking. •Any legal parking permit will be allowed on Beef Cattle Road across the railroad tracks. •Blue permit parking will be allowed on the Agronomy Road extension from West campus to the Veterinary Medicine Com plex. Parsons said Texas A&M’s parking situation does not seem so bad when compared with the problems at the University of Texas. UT has 8,300 parking spaces; Texas A&M has 18,000 parking spaces. Reactions concerning the eli mination of Parking Lot 7 from people who park there are varied. Jane Denoux, senior secret ary for the geophysics depart ment, said she would rather have the new wing added to the Halbouty Building rather than Lot 7. However, she added, the lack of parking spaces will “be a big inconvenience for a lot of people.” Dr. Clair Nixon, assistant pro fessor of accounting, said he is concerned with where the peo ple will park. “I would prefer double- and triple-deck parking if it is econo mically feasible,” he said. Ramona Warren, senior sec retary for the business analysis department, said the loss of E arking spaces will cause a prob- :m in interviewing new clerical staff. “It’s hard when you start hir ing new employees and cannot promise them a parking space,” she said.

She refused to allow ambu lance attendants into the house and would not admit that her mother, Clara Wagner, had died, said ambulance worker James Upchurch. “She was calm and OK until she saw the ambulance,” Up church said. “I came in slow and parked up ahead of the house, but evidently she’d been anti cipating it. “She knew what it was for. She said, ‘You’re not taking my mother anywhere. You’re not taking her to the morgue, you’re not taking her anywhere.’ She said she still had a pulse. So we sat there and tried to talk to her like her mother was still alive. We said we need to get her to the hospital. But that didn’t work either.” Police barricaded streets around the house in the Cedar Grove section of Shreveport. A Special Response Team was cal led to the scene, but officers apparently were hoping the woman would surrender after a short while. If Ton Could find A Better Deal... We Wouldn't Be Here!??
