wrecks!"
He thought "killing a few people off in traffic accident is a
easier than trying to make them
not have as many kids." He Just didn't beliere the
financial side of the statistics.
People on the highways when he was driving home
from a party also met with his violent disapproval. "Sure
I had a few beers well, maybe more than a few. Hut
this crazy guy coming toward me it's Just lucky for
me I can hold my liquor!"
"Of course I stop for lights and stop signs." he'd
exclaim with a disgusted smirk, "unless there's nobx1y
coming or I don't see a cop. Girl, don't you know it
takes more gas to take off from a stand-sti- ll
than it
does to slow down but keep moving? Why, I bet I've
saved $100 in gas and tire rubber alone."
"And these stupid speed limits. If people don't knowso-call- ed

people who den t know how to drive on curving roads,
so they go 60 on the straight stretches and 23 around
the bends. You can't get 'em on the straightaways, so
you have to pass on curves."
At this point, he'd always become very Irate, wave'
his fist and tcream something about "if the facts were

and "those damn fools cause all the

and "my gosh, you can't take all day
somewhere!" He really had quite a little speech on
the subject.
His theory about accident statistics was rather strange,
too. After holidays, when he'd read the traffic tolls in
the newspapers, he would mutter, "Crazy newsmen-rdo- n't

Party.

Darkness And Danger
"Quit screaming or you're dead."
Sounds like a quote from a mystery
magazine or a gangster movie, doesn't
Jt isn't.
That hoarse command was rasped
.to a UK coed one night this week
as she struggled with a man who
had accosted her on Harrison Avenue,
a stone's "throw from the women's
dorms.
Fortunately the coed's assailant
became frightened a moment after
making his threat and fled in his car,
leaving her highly unnerved but otherwise unharmed.

series of such
incidents involving
University women. Some attempted
assaults have been on the campus
proper, others on neighboring streets
This

is merely

as this one.

But all have been in areas that
are poorly lighted; so poorly lighted,
in fact, that one wonders why how
the University has escaped having
such attacks result in far more tragic
consequences.
The inadequate lighting of Harrison Avenue cannot be ascribed to
University negligence, of course; that
is a matter for the city to remedy. But
the same situation exists on the campus itself, and with nightfall
the
penumbral blackness is broken only
by a few lights from buildings and a
pitifully scattered electric bulbs.
For instance, the only lighted sidewalk in the vicinity of the library
where many coeds come at night to
study is at the juncture of

dorms to the library, most of her route
will be barely lighted or completely

apparent purpose in
having a campus as dark as ours. The
present lighting Is ineffectual and insufficient. It sacrifices not only the
campus' beauty, but is also a menace
to the safety of persons crossing campus at night.
To properly light the campus would
involve a considerable installation expense, of course, but operational costs
won Ul not be appreciable since the
University's electric bill is based on a
maximum demand rate for a given
month.
Lights could easily be installed on

responsible authorities, both
city and University, should take steps
to properly light the campus and its
contiguous streets: Rose, Harrison,
Limestone and Euclid.
Even turning the campus and bordering streets into whiteways is not a
guarantee, in itself, that some molestation of a coed will not be attempted in the fututeXiiytime as
many young, attractive women as the
University has are grouped together,
there are going to be those demented
individuals who will try to approach
or molest them, lights or no lights.
While lighting is not a panacea, it
is a large deterrent tt. possible assailants. A watt of prevention is worth
a kilowatt of cure.

And, like

everyone else, we have
wondered why the students can't have
backrests on the bleachers if indeed
they can't have chair seats like the
more fortunate customers across the
,
way.
So, before jumping on our editorial
horse ami riding off in all directions,'
we decided to see if perhaps there is
some reason why the difference in

seat.
There

is.

ing traffic fatalities as a part of the
American scene and really get to work
in seeking what can be done to solve
the problem. It's our moral responsibility to do so. Each of us must do it,
because the record shows that "somebody else" can't.
We can't wait any longer. We've
got to really face up to our responsibility now in preventing this terrible
waste ol rcsouices and lives.
So keep reminding us! Not only
next week, but also when the semester
ends. December heads the list, but all
the other winter months are big killers, too.

may await some lone coed who happens to venture along.

through a, concert without budging
from our Coliseum bleacher seat, we
have gotten that slightly
posture.

Chambliss steps down, "look, for a
pickup in Campus Party activity," as
if Bob had been lax in his responsibility as chairman and had hurt the
progress of the party.
May I point out that Chambliss was
the leader of the group that organized
the Campus Party, contributed most
to its success in last spring's election,
was the main participant in writing
the constitution for the party a constitution that provides equal opjor-tunitie- s
for both Independents and
Greek organizations and tin's fall promoted a recruiting campaign which
added seven Greek groups and many
Independents to the party.
I do agree that there is one kind of
activity which he has avoided. He,
along with the party, is violently opand creating
posed to
issues which can be a depolitical
triment to any political system, and
are far below politics at the college
levels.
He believes that students,
should be elected on merit, qualilicia-tions- ,
and interest, not on popularity
standing!
If Millott continues to report the
campus political news to students, I
hope he will limit his remaiks to the
essential facts and give ciedit
or
discredit where they are due.

Millott, chairman of the Students
Party, writes political news for the
Kernel, a situation not at all" healthy .
for (the paper). I would like to
clarify some remarks made yesterday concerning Chambliss, which intentionally or unintentionally do him
an injustice.
First, Millott said that after the
first of the year Chambliss will step
down as party chairman because he
feels that the party needs "a
chairman."
Bob's only reason for stepping down
is because he feels that two semesters'

contribution as chairman are enough
and that it is healthy for the party lo
have a change in leadership.
Second, Millott says that when

types of seating for the Coliseum. His
report is that getting scats in the student section would reduce capacity
about 20 to 25 per cent. Backrest for
the bleachers are impossible, he says,
because there would be insufficient
between
rows. The Coliseum's operating costs are such that
seating space cannot be reduced,
when tournaments and
especially
other special events are held there.
We accept this explanation in the
lace of hard financial fact, but with
the reservation that we wish someone
had thought of student comfort when
they built the Coliseum.
Perhaps we can induce the next
visiting symphony orchestra to provide for a second movement stretch.

To The Editor:
Keep the editorials and photos on
traffic safety coming! Like Miss Kaufman said, someone will not take the
pictures to heart, but most of us will
if we're reminded enough.
I'd like to see newspapers print
such photos ad nauseam instead of
alloting the small space to accident
coverage that they do. Such jolicy is
only strengthening a growing opinion
that "apparently there's just not much
that can be done to reduce tralfic

deaths and injuries."
Aie all these deaths really an unavoidable outgrowth of our changed
way of life? Apparently loo many of
us think so. Except for selfishly hoping that it won't happen to us or our
families, our common attitude is one
ol indifference.
It's high time we stopped accept
