boundaries of the areas proposed within which parking of student automobiles would be restricted by the proposed regulations. President Henry introduced Professor Charles H. Bowman, Chairman of the University Traffic and Parking Board, who discussed the recommendations of his Board and commented on the proposal of the All-Student Traffic and Parking Commission, explaining how the boundaries were fixed and pointing out that if experience reveals any of them should be changed, the University Traffic and Parking Board will so recommend. A summary of Professor Bowman's presentation has been filed with the Secretary of the Board for record. Following these presentations, there was a general discussion of the recomendations of the President of the University and the request of the All-Student Commission. It was the consensus of the Board that more rigid restrictions on permitting students to operate automobiles while in attendance at the University should be considered. On motion of Mr. Herrick, the Secretary was instructed to reply on behalf of the Board to Mr. Houston's letter advising him of the need for immediate action and that University officials will be glad to consider any further suggestions the Student Commission has to offer. At the conclusion of the discussion of this matter of business, Mr. Johnston moved that the recommendations of the President be approved and that the funds required be appropriated. This motion was adopted by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Herrick, Mrs. Holt, Mr. Johnston, Mr. Megran, Mr. Nickell, Mr. Swain, Mrs. Watkins, Mr. Williamson; no, none; absent, Mr. Bissell, Mr. Livingston, Mr. Stratton.
