COLLEGE COOFER:TION
The Traffic Squed wes orgen-
ized because there wes too much
confusion in the college halls
end the cefetcria. This problem
is now much improved beceuse of
the orgenization end the Milne
High students «re doing much to
eliminate the congestion. However
the State College students do not
secm to be cooperating. It was
first suggested by them and we
fecl that they should work with
us in helping to solve the prob-
lem.
Onc of the rules of the
Traffic Squed is thet wo ¢o0 single
file down the stéirs which lccd
to the annex and ecxgecterie. Mem-
bers of Stete College go down in
twos and threes in the very cen-
tcr of the stairs.
If State College students went
us to heve better conduct in the
corridors they should sct « octtcer
exemple.
