Senators Push Parking Action
City Fears Protest
by Local Residents
Vol. 20, No. 12
Pasadena City College, Pasadena, California
May 6, 1964
The Senate yesterday initiated
new action to ease the parking
restrictions now enforced by
police on the streets around PCC.
Senators discussed presenting
the city engineer’s office a peti¬
tion signed by local residents sup¬
porting an ASB plan to limit time
restrictions to afternoon only.
“The city has expressed interest
in this ASB plan but has feared
opposition from local homeown¬
ers,” explained Senate vice-presi¬
dent Mike Gallagher. “If the resi¬
dents will sign such a petition, the
chances are good for a change in
the time restrictions.”
The city’s conciliatory reaction
to the ASB parking plan contrasts
sharply with a statement made in
March by Traffic Analyst Ed
Beech of the Pasadena Police
Department. Beech declared then
that authorities would make “no
more concessions” to PCC in its
parking appeals.
“We are not worried about
Beech’s statement.” said Gal¬
lagher, “because it is the city
engineer’s office, not the police,
that will decide the fate of the
PCC proposals.”

leading a Senate drive for ease¬
ment of parking restrictions on
nearby streets.
Clubs Participate
in OMD Carnival
The 34th annual OMD Carnival
will be held at Horrell Field this
Friday evening beginning at six.
Thirty-two booths plus the
mainstage are planned for “A
Global Affair,” this year’s theme.
OMD Master of Ceremonies will
announce the names of the Carni¬
val Queen and her court from the
mainstage. Presentation of Rem¬
ington razors and Jurgensen’s
peaches to Whiskerino men will
also come from the platform.
ENTRANCE to the Carnival
will be through the International
Gateway at the north end of Hor¬
rell Field. Nearby will be the
Interpol Jail run by the Varsity
Club. These athletes are the offi¬
cial police of the “Affair” but
they are not without their price.
A small bribe can cause the ar¬
rest of an enemy and even shut
down a rival booth.
Opposite this booth is the
Lambda Delta Sigma Photo¬
graphy Booth. Photographs can
be taken before or after a mar¬
riage ceremony in the Spartans
booth next to the LDS’s.
AMONG the other booths at the
Carnival will be the dunking
booth traditionally operated by
Circle K. The splashers are
flanked by Junior Executives’
Washer Toss and the Mystery
Booth of Math and Astronomy.
PCC’s drama fraternity, Delta
Psi Omega, will set its own stage
and charge admission to see an
original comedy. The play will be
in two versions, the taking place
during Reconstruction in the
deep south, the second set in
post-WW II in Japan.
Games of skill will be tested
in the Library Council, AWS,
Theta Rho Pi, Highlanders and
Freshman Class booths.

A recently formed Organ
Council will be performing soon
at various assemblies and will

Teachers’ Attack
on Union Claims
PCC Young Republicans this
week commended instructors
William Bair, Frank Baum, and
Louis Riess for their “stands

of Teachers” in the April 29
Courier.
The faculty trio had refuted
statements attacking the school
board and the Pasadena Educa¬
tion Association by Harley His-
cox, executive secretary of AFT’s
local.
The YR executive board reso¬
lution declared that PEA, a pro¬
fessional association, “already
serves the teacher’s and com¬
munity’s purposes of promoting
public education.” It also declared
that the establishment of a cam¬
pus AFT chapter “would lower
the teaching staff to a non-profes¬
sional status.”

ors at Saturday’s Pasadena Naza-
rine College’s Spring Alternate

fort in the women’s oratory divis¬
ion, and freshman Cherri Schmidt
qualified for the final round in
impromptu speaking.
Jim Taylor and Brian Wardlaw

direction of Frank Van Der
Maten, PCC music instructor. Ad¬
mission is free and ample free
parking space will be available.
BOTH Scavetta and Hutton
flatly oppose compulsory ASB
membership. Gallagher sees merit
in a “careful study” of the ques¬
tion.
Scavetta, chairman of the pro¬
posed creative-bent Athenian
Club, claims that compulsory
membership would be unneces¬
sary if ASB activities were made
more attractive to more students.
Hutton, a member of the Sopho¬
more Council, favors a “two-
book” ASB policy as an alterna¬
tive to mandatory membership,
with a reduced rate book exclud¬
ing the Pageant and certain other
items.
GALLAGHER plans to inject
the officially non-existent frater¬
nities and sororities into the cam¬
paign. After consultation with
administrators, he promises a
plan that would encourage “co¬
operation” between ASB and the’
frats.
All three candidates will push
for solution of the parking prob¬
