More parking spaces Bettye 'Gatlin
needed at SPC sponsors
by Dell Stewart Psi Beta chapter
Parking can certainly be a
bother no matter where you are.
Sometimes an automobile owner
ends up paying more for a parking
space than he desires. But in most
parking lot situations, after the
price is paid, the driver has access
to convenient parking. Here at St.
Philip’s both students and faculty
pay for a space but can’t always
find one. This can sometimes be
frustrating and cause negative at-
titudes before the student attends
class.
Parking has always been a pro-
blem at SPC and students are now
beginning to question the system
even more since the increase in the
price of campus parking permits.
Captain H. R. HoffaM, Dcpu- Xh<_ s, Philip's College
*y Chief of Police for the San An- psycho|„gy and Philosophy
tonio o ege rstnct says at Department is offering students
parking permits have tripled since wh(j an opportlmity to
last year but a parking space ,s not become charter membera of S(
guaranteed- The cost of a park- ; . Philip's College Psi Beta Chapter-
mg sticker has gone from 2 to 6 ^ a Natign(j Honor
dollars but a pemrn is only a r (0 9tud ing
SZtitZZ.'*"'”* psygha^pgy ®t die 2-year colleges.
Of an approximate enrollment
of 5,000 students at SPC, 3,000
have already purchased parking
permits. SPC parking lets can on-
ly accomodate 1,187 cars with just
832 spaces designated student
parking. The remaining spaces are
for the faculty and special park-
ing.
Hoffman calls the parking situa-
tion critical. “In both day and
evening divisions, parking is
critical.” ;•
Steps are being taken to provide
more parking space for both
students and faculty members in
the future. Hoffman pointed out
that SPC has already purchased
22 additional vacant lots but the
lots are unpaved and unfit for pro-
per parking. He also noted that it
will be some time before the lots
can be developed because of shor-
tages in funds. The money from
the parking permits goes directly
in "to the general fund.
There are a few solutions to this
problem however. One is the VIA
Transit System and the other is
car-pooling.
The transit system offers
scheduled routes east and west
bound, to and from St. Philip’s on
a regular basis.
For an extra dollar and a
passenger or two, carpooling is
available. Carpooling lots are go-
ing to be extended into the regular
student parking spaces as needed.
These are just a couple of ways to
get around the frustration and
bother that SPC parking can br-
ing. .
in order to recognize their
“ scholastic achievements and in-
terests in psychology. All students
who have an interest in psychology
as an academic and professional
field of work should apply. The
knowledge gained from the study
of psychology is applicable to any
career die student may choose,
and to excel in the study is truly as
■- asset. ; r ■'
Because St. Philip’s College of-
fers a credible psychology cur-
riculum, and have done so over the
years, the department was invited
to participate as a Charter
Member of Psi Beta National
Honor Society for Community and
Junior Colleges.
Bettye Gatlin, Associate Pro-
fessor in the Psychology Depart-
ment, sponsored the SPC
Chapter, while Dr. Jeannine
Foster will serve as ex-officio.
Minimum Qualifications:
1. You must be officially enroll-
ed at St. Philip’s College, and
have an overall average of B or
better, and at least a B average in
psychology courses.
2. You must have completed at
least one semester, in a psychology
course with a grade of B or better.
All students who would like to
become a member of SPC Psi Beta
Chapter, contact Ms. Bettye

Elevators turn into crematoria,

flaming holocaust leaps up and
traps hundreds on the 138th floor.

all the classic tragic elements-of
murder, guilt and revenge.
Carpooiiltg is one
answer to
parking problem
Finding a parking space for
your vehicle at SPC is a well-
known problem. Hunting a slot
and then walking a few blocks
from one of the many scattered
parking lots can make you late for
class. Probably you have thought
that there must be a better way to
this parking madness.
Well, there is—1 think about car-
pooling.
Car-pooling means riding to
school with others in your car,
truck, or van. You save gas and
you do not have to worry about
- parking hassles. The San Antonio
Community College District par-
ticipates in a car-pool program.
Car-Pool Permits are available
for $1.00 for each semester from
the Campus Police Office. A
minimum of two students,
preferably more, qualify for par-
ticipation in the program.
A permit is issued to each car-
pool and can be transferred to
each vehicle participating in the
program. Each vehicle must be
registered with the Campus Police
: Office. All members of each car-
pool must be together in the vehi-
cle when parking in the car-pool
lot. The car-pool lot is reserved for
car-pool parking at all times.
For more car-pool information
go to the Campus Police Office on
the southwest corner of Mittman
and Dakota streets. Happy Car-
pooling. , :

Wednesday
Have a good laugh, slap your
knees and stomp your feet during
two coffee house performances at
St. Philip’s College and San An-
tonio College.
Tim Henderson and Mike
Williams will entertain audiences
with their unique and different
styles during free shows.
Henderson performs at the St.
Philips’s Student Center Sept. 16
at 11 a.m. with a strong combina-
tion of uninhibited humor and
attention-riveting guitar picking.
Henderson's tunes, “Waiting
for the Naked Girl to Call" and
“Mrs. Stein Don’t Rent to Gypsies
Any More,” Make it hard for au-
diences to sit up straight in their
seats.
His moving and serious song
about the devotion of a Mexican
mother, “Maria Consuela Ar-
royo,” was performed by country
western star Bob Gibson at
Carnegie Hall. Gibson received a
standing ovation and Henderson
accrued songwriting fame.
Williams sings silky smooth
country western tunes and accom-
panies himself on 12 string guitar
Sept. 17 and 18 at the SAC Loftin
Student Center Coffee House at 11
a.m.
Williams’ songs, deeply rooted
in his love for Texas and the
Southwest, are of honky-tonks,
prairies and hard-loving women.
The 37-year-old performer has
recorded two albums, The Radio
Show and B.F. Deal. For more in-
formation, call the San Antonio
Community College District infor-
, mation office at 733-2146.
