Wilbert watches parking lots fill as drivers park variety of vehicles Whether one drove to school in a Z28, '64 Volkswagon, or a Yamahopper, every vehicle in the Jefferson parking lot had one thing in common. It was something to get'cha around. Quite a few J-Hawks did get around to parking in the lots as over 440 vehicles filled them every day. This year, for the first time in Jefferson's history, sopho- mores were not allowed to use the parking lots, in order to provide more parking in the lots and less on the streets. However, upperclassmen were a little upset when they found the supposedly more spacious parking lots surprisingly full when they arrived at 9.20 a.m. Under the constant, careful surveillance of Mr. Wilbert Beckman, the two parking lots at Jeff provided J-Hawks with a place to keep their vehicles while they put in a day at school. Enduring rain, snow, and the cold, cold winters of Iowa, Wilbert always made sure things were okay in the park- ing Iot. Things usually were okay, except for such unpleasant incidents as stolen gas caps, slit tires, and other nice sur- prises to find at the end of the day. This was Wilbert's sixth year of monitoring the parking lots. After retiring from the position of captain at the Cedar Rapids Fire Department, Wilbert came to Jefferson. He really enjoys his job, and finds it a lot of Iaughs. Now that the year is over, underclassmen can look for- ward to hunting for a parking place, buying parking stickers, and chatting with Wilbert while seniors can look back at these aspects of their years at Jefferson. ,az M71 A...
