I surely would like to see an honor system here that would work. The present system needs to be changed. If students see someone cheating and refuse to turn them in, they are showing dishonesty on their own part, be cause they should know it's wrong. (2) "Yes, I think they should, I know in this election coming ui: that l'd like to know how I stood in the elections. I see no reasor why we should hide the results from the studert body. (, "The parking situation is terrible here at the University I think more parking space: should be allotted to the students because after all they are a bij part of the University. It's ver3 discouraging to come from clas: and find a ticket on your car. I'v< been discouraged many times. "I believe that the area betweei Davis playing field and Greel Street could easily be used fo parking space. It would mea taking the fence around Davi field down but. it would be al improvement as it distracts fron the campus. (4) "If a plan could be worke< out to re-route traffic, it woul< definitely be to the students' ad vantage to have Green Stree closed to the public.

The boys stunt night this year as a whol< was the mtost disgraceful thing] have ever seen staged by Univer sity students. It's a 'black eye' L< the University wvhen such demon. strations prevail. "I think that a committee mad' up of two or three faculty mem bers and a likely number of stu dlents appointedl by the IFC anc PanHldlen ie Counc il should be formed.'"

"(1) It's ob vious to the stu dent body and the honor board that the present honor system is not working as effectively as it should on cam pus, and It is of great concern to both. The honor board has indicated its active con cern by its recent poll of the stu dent body. I believe that if a change can be made for the better they will come up with a plan, and if not, they will suggest that it be abandoned. No system will work without the support of the entire student body. "(2) Yes, I do, provided that the candidates are aware that the elec tion returns will be published prior to their entrance into the race. "(3) It's obvious that parking facilities are inadequate and the construction of a new building on the lot behind the field house surely won't improve it. This is a perennial problem that I see no sure fire solution for at present. "(4) Yes, the traffic light, al though it has slowed traffic down, hasn't alleviated t Ii e problem, especially around nine and twelve o'clock. I think another student body committee should be ap pointed to discuss the problem with city council. "(5) Stunts of the caliber of some in the last fraternity stunt - night should be censored by a com muittee from the Interfraternity ulty adviser. This plan has been Council which would include a fac presented to and accepted by the student activities committee. I hope that it will be in effect in a more detailed form next, year.

In re gardls to t.he pol11 being taken con cern inrg what shouild be (lone about the p)resent system, it would be dlisgraceful for the student body to obligate the faculty to uphold the principles of honor.

If not, what think Green Street should about the traffic problem? If so, by whom? disciplinary committee s h o u function as one organization. TI would involve a trial for infri tions of lying, cheating and ste ing, which all fall under the ca gory of honor. In this way, tht would be no division of power a the duties of this committee wot be much more clear cut and c fitted. Under the present syste there is no definite policy und which each functions. "(2) As a personal opinion, I no reason why the actual resu should not be published. Howev< this matter should be the conv tion of the student body or at lei of the candidates running for fice. "(3) I do not think they are ac iuate. Being unfamiliar with t administration's access to any v cant lots or land close by the Ut versity, I could not venture to su gest a pertinent remedy to ti situation. I would not hesitate confront the administration wi any feasible solution which mig be offered. "(4) 1 do think Green Str( should be closed to traffic, for t simple reason the traffic on Gre Street is a detriment to the pedi trians - students - who neci sarily must use this street as means of going to and fr( classes. "(5) 1 do not think stunts I stunt night should have to be c sored, however, the result of tl year's stunt night - particulai in regards to boys' stunts - see to necessitate the need for their 1 ing censored. It is unfortunate tl this circumstance should hr arisen. "Vhen the organizations volved can produce skits which i of the moral calibre that would expected to come from a matt group of college students, I can no need for continuing the pract of censoring these stunts."
