Vol. LX, No. 3 Western Washington State College, Bellingham, Wash. 98225 Tuesday, October 3, 1967
Also known as The Collegian Individual Copy 10<
Neighbors want High St. open
Halt college plans
The present move to close a
portion of High Street is just the
fourth in a planned seven stages,
a Western official explained this
week.
Harold Goltz, director of Planning
and Development, said that
the first stage was passed by
the state legislature in 1965-66
to construct South Campus Park
way. It also called for the upgrading
of the connection between
21st and 23rd Streets on
Bennett Avenue and construction
of an entrance road between
South Campus Parkway and Hill
Street
Stage two is taking place this
year. This involves constructing
a collector street between
23rd and Hill Street and Highland
Drive and then closing the section
to 21st Street which parallels
23rd.
The third stage will close
Campus Drive.
Closure of High Street between
Oak and Cedar Streets (stage
four) has come with the option
involving the college neighborhood.
The neighbors, however,
want a connector between Highland
Drive and Garden Street
(stage six).

Stage five is the plan to construct
Campus W ay between Hill
Street and 21st Street along the
base of Sehome Hill. This will
allow easy access to parking
lots.
Stage seven would complete
the proposed plan by finishing a
east circumference road and
develop the north campus entrance.

4,300 STUDENTS wanted their picture taken between 10 a.m.
and noon last Tuesday and the line extended from Carver Gym
to part way up High Street. Wise ones waited until afternoon.

The long snake of students
which wound in front of the education
building for identification
pictures last Tuesday morning
will not be repeated, reports
Dean of Students James Hitch-man.
This was the last time the
entire student body was to be
photographed, so the problem
will not be encountered again,
said Hitchman.
The crowd became thickest
when a large part of the nearly
3,500 returning students and 800
transfers chose to have their i.d.
photos taken between 10 a.m.
and noon, he said.
Many students were waiting
nearly an hour to have their
pictures taken.
To alleviate the problem line,
another photography station was
set up in L-l. By afternoon, the
lines were down to workable
sizes.
Hitchman noted that no problem
was encountered with the
freshman i.d. pictures last
Monday.
Flora asks mayor to
stop High St. discussion
In a letter to the mayor of
Bellingham Friday Interim
President Charles J. Flora requested
that the Board of Public
Works discontinue consideration
of the college plan to close
part of High Street.
The measure, designed to separate
through-traffic from college-
oriented traffic and remove
existing conflicts with pedestrians,
asked that traffic be prohibited
on High Street between
Oak Street and Morey Drive
between 7:30 a.m. and 6 P.m.
weekdays.
Opposition to the proposal
came from the surrounding
neighborhood, said Harold Goltz,
director of planning and development,
who indicated that residents
wanted a connecting route
between High Street and Garden
Street constructed before High
was barricaded.
Disapproval also resulted,
said Goltz, from "the increased
abuse a few students have done
to their property and privacy
such as throwing bottles and
dragging up and down the streets
throughout the night."
Flora stated in a NEWS interview
last Thursday that unless
the proposed closing of High
Street from Edens Hall to
Campus Drive is approved,
someone could very well be
killed.

UN
Dave Cunningham won appointments
as legislative speaker and
is Straight News business man-iger
at the first fall meeting
rf the student legislature Monday
afternoon.

in the vote for speaker.
Student body president Dan
Fredrickson attended the meeting
to call the board's attention
to a newly-prepared pamphlet
containing his choices for appointments
to this year's committees
and other offices.
Fredrickson asked for the appointment
of Sharon McCabe,
Genise Harney and Reg Robertson
to the Judiciary Board, but
the legislature moved to wait
until it could talk to each of the
prospective appointees.
Other business included amotion
to secure the now-vacant
store across from Higginson
Hall as a permanent meeting
place for the International Club.
