Since the University of Illinois campus is spread out over a wide area, and since classes have to be made in ten minutes, some mode of fast transportation confronts many. Walking across the quadrangle appears to be the most popular sport. However, this may entail long cross country hikes, and late arrivals to class. Many find the bicycle relieves wear and tear on the shoe leather. Since an increase in the bicycle population has caused traffic jams on and around the quadrangle, the University constructed paths especially for the bike pilot. Owners and operators of bicycles must register their vehicles with the university. A more spacious and more comfortable form of wheels is found in the shape of a car. These cars must be registered each se- mester. In addition to delivering owners to class, these cars manage to serve as a bus for all friends and acquaintances. For those who prefer to socialize on the way to class, the Illi bus proves to be the best mode of conveyance. Packed to the over- flowing point, these buses deliver hundreds of students daily to classes all over campus. 12
