friends was learned to the tune of University Student Council, but

court last Monday in the mittee after a large percentage of

from the University to the stu- will be fined at the rate of $2 per
dent, who had earned seven park- violation: parking in a restricted
ing violation tickets. zone, parking in a loading zone,
Evidence Found
The tickets had been wadded
and thrown down near the scene
of the violation, and, having been
found were presented as evidence
at the hearing. The defense stated
that he had been told by friends
to ignore the parking tickets, be­cause
paying the fines was not en­forced.
On several occasions, he
explained, he had arrived at the
last minute for a class in the Na­tural
Science Building, and had
parked in the only spot available,
which happen~d to be the Dean
of Women's, Visitor, and other
reserved parking places. When
asked why he had not parked in
the Parkway Field lot, the de­fense,
later proved guilty, confes­sed
that he had not known about
it until early on the morning of
the trial.
Huffman Heads Committee
Dr. William Huffman, Director
of the Division of Adult Educa­tion,
is head of the Parking Com­mittee,
which also includes Dr.
William Clay, Mr. Joseph John­son,
Mr. M. G. Northrop, and Mr.
R. S. Purvis. This group excused
several other violators, since it
was their first offense.
The possibility of restricting
more space for faculty and admin­istrative
parking, and fining those
faculty who park in the student
lots was considered, and a study of
the situation was planned.
improper parking, parking in
places prohibited, beaded in wrong
direction, speeding or reckless
driving, officer's signal dis~egard­ed,
crosswalk parking, more than
12 inches from curb, blocking
driveway, failure to stop at stop
sign, license number obscured,
parking along painted curbs, fail­ure
to register car, driving or
parking on grass, and parking in
visitors' zones. Continuous night
and day parking without a per­mit
is prohibited in all parking
areas.
All Required To Register
The parking committee has an­nounced
that all students are re­quired
to register their cars. Those
who have not reported their cars
may register them in the Build­ings
and Grounds office in the
Service Building. Failure to do so
is subject to a fine, as noted above.
When a parking ticket is issued,
the person receiving it has three
recourses. The fine may be paid
within seven days at the Cashier's
Office in the Home Economics
Building. If a person feels he has
been unjustly accused, he may
either write ·to Dr. Huffman in
the D.A.E. office, or appear in
person at the regular parking
committee meeting held the first
and third Mondays of the month
in the Allen Court Room. "I hope
it will not be necessary to meet
so often," Dr. Huffman comment­ed.
The University intends to continue a vigorous athletic
policy, according to a statement from college officials when
they were asked if the resignation of Athletic Director Roy
Mundorff in any way effected the future of sports activities
at Belknap Campus. News of Mun­dorff's
departure broke Tuesday
and President Philip Davidson
was quick to point out two facts.
One; Mundorff handed in a ver­bal
resignation before the present
football season began, and two;
the university was accepting
"with regret."
New Appointment Planned
Choice of the successor to head
the athletic department will be
made at the October 24th meet­ing
of the Athletic Council. In­formed
sources say that the new
man will come from present
Athletic DepaDtment personnel.
If such is the case then Dr. John
Heldman, present head of the
Physical Education Department,
and Head Basketball and Foot-ball
Coaches Bernard Hickman
and Frank Camp would seem like­ly
candidates for the job. All have
know ledge o f
the problems
facing the de­partment.
Mundorff
came to the
University
from Cteorgia
Tech, where he
was assistant to
Bobby Dodd.
Mundorff
Negotiations for his services were
begun in 1951 by former Presi­dent
John Taylor. However, when
Mundorff took over early in 1952,
the University was under the dir­ection
of present president Philip
Davidson. Mundorff stated many
times that his primary job at

f Cheerleaders Vie For Six Positions
Wooten Reelected
From 1952-3 Squad
A spirited crowd of students
gathered in front of the SUB last
Friday noon to audition twenty­three
aspirants for the six posi­tions
on the cheerleading squad.
From 6 foot 3 inch Bert Edwards
to tiny Donna Clutinger, 4 foot
11 inches, the contestants put
every inch and ounce of their en­ergy
into generating an enthusi-astic
response from the cheering
judges.
Emerging victorious from the
close contest were D. D. DeSanto,
KD; Lois Bewley, Pi Phi; Carole
Rogers; Bert Edwards; Jack Fish­er,
Phi Tau; and Ralph Wooten,
Pi Kap.
Wooton is the only veteran of
last year's squad.

who tried for aposition on the
squad were Donna Clutinger J
Marilyn Moore, Sandy Long, Mary
Lois Anderson, Tinker Everhart,
Betty Joule, Winnie Cook, Jack­ie
Sils, Jane Kleier, Virginia My­ers,
Charley Billips, Frank Weber,
C. E. Powell, Buddy Craft, Ed
Hannon, Warren Robb, and Jack
Preis.
The first public appearance of

at present 500 pounds per year for
two years. At the end of the first
year's study, the student may ap­ply
for a third year. There is no
restriction as to course of study.
Dr. Davidson emphasizes that
juniors, as well as seniors and
graduate students, may apply. In
fact, he "would be very interested
in having a top-notch junior ap­plying
and being interviewed,
even just for the experience."
Louisville would be to continue
the rise of the University in in­tercollegiate
football. However, in
the year after he came the Trus­tees
cut the football budget and
sharply curtailed scholarships for
athletes. In addition, Mundorff
was never able to get :the civic
support he said was necessary for
the University to progress in the
football world.
Returns To Georgia
Mundorff was in Georgia at the
time news of his resignation broke
and was not available for com­ment.
However, news accounts in
the Courier-Journal said that he
plans to go into the business
world in his orginal home of At­lanta.
Last June, Mundorff was ap­pointed
director of the Louisville
Service Club.

Before coming to Louisville,
Mundorff was a prominent figure
in Southeastern Conference cir­cles.
A graduate of the University of
Pennsylvania, he went to Georgia
Tech as freshman basketball coach
in 1922, becoming head coach in
1926. He held the latter post until
he entered the Navy in 1942, but
returned to Tech as assistant ath­letic
director in 1946.
