GOLDEN SPUR The Golden Spur Nightclub has three g r o u p s scheduled for the t' Group olunded some members of the group ad vocated working in the present AWARE framework. Other speak ers suggested establishing a group such as the Students for a Demo cratic Society (SDS). Most of the persons present also attended a 30-minute meditation period in Rutledge Chapel prior to the Russell House gathering. Some 45 persons were at the meditation. During the meditation a student who identified himself as Gary Lucas invited interested studlents to reconvene at Russell House to dis cuss formation of a newv group. At the meeting, Lucas said he was interestedl in "not radical riots but intelligent thinking" a b o u t issues that "members of the or ganization feel are pertinent." Further meetings were planned by the group. 11 Change nProcedure expandable, Toombs said. The switch is expected to in crease the libraries' efficiency in getting new books on the shelf. Toombs said he hoped printed guides explaining the system would be available for students. Contributions Still Sought Contributions are still being ac cepted for the senior class scholar ship fund, according to Pat Nay lor, class president. The seniors are trying to raise $5,000 for a p)ermanent scholarship fund to provide an annual grant of $250. A contribution of $5 from every senior class member is the project's goal.

Managing Editor The Executive Parking Commit tee of Student Government this week proposed construction of a four-tier parking building to help alleviate the campus parking crisis. According to the committee's sug gestions, the building would be lo cated south of Blossom Street, di rectly across from Fraternity Row. It would cover the area which now includes a student parking lot and Athletic Field A. Committee C h a i r m a n Alan Thames Tuesday night appeared before Town Men's Association to explain the parking proposals. Thames said the facility would include spaces for 1,200 to 1,500 cars. The top level would corre spond in size to the existing lot, with approximately 150 spaces. Each of the three lower levels would have 450 spaces. Thames said the upper level could be expanded to meet future needs. The committee recommended the Blossom Street location be cause of its proximity to Russell House and other more frequently used buildings. The proposed site would allow use of the natural topography, eliminating excessive expense of constructing ramps connecting each level with the next, the chairman pointed out. Thames explained that the slope of the land would make it posible for cars to enter the lower levels from Sumter and Marion streets. The committee also proposed con struction of an overpass for pedes trian traffic from the building, over Blossom Street to the campus. Thames said the committee has no estimate of the cost of the pro posed building. A reliable estimate Student Vote Endorses 18 As Voting Age Four of every six USC students voting in a special poll have en dorsed lowering the voting age to 18. Of 625 students responding to a survey conducted by the campus Y o u n g Democrats, 411 favored lowering the age for voting, while 214 opposed the move. Club officials s t a t e that the Young D)emocrats are planning to sponsor a similar poll each month, with students voting on important or controversial questions.

Thames' committee has discussed its proposals with the administra tion which has had its own formal study under way for one and a half years. "I am extremely impressed with the thought of the students and the amount of time and effort they have put into this project," Vice President for Business A f f a i r s Harold Brunton said this week. "'Me main quest ion in my mind," Brunton said, "is if we are going to put a parking garage in, shouldn't it be located as centrally as possible?" The administration has con sidered several sites--including di rectly behind Russell House and on the eastern side of campus, he said. Brunton said, however, that he agreed that probably such a park ing building would eventually be necessary, and that the location suggested by Student Government is "entirely feasible." 1111 Special Hurry, hurry to Three casual sta f abrics . . . popu B3irdseye mesh light blue, olive Full Fashioned 2-ply merceriz.e white, chocolate siZe8.
