Long before the first official edition of the PARKING GAME was introduced in the Gateway in the fall of 1967, students on the OU UNO campus spent many hours playing an informal version of this infamous game. This is the second edition of this ever-popular pastime. All mention of parking meters and free lots has been replaced by updated parking situ- ations. The object of the PARKING GAME is to acquire the most points for one day. Daily v inners compete during final exam week and the first week of the next semester — when the lots are the fullest and competition the keenest. All players are required to be regularly enrolled students in possession of a red UNO parking sticker. It is strongly suggested that freshmen and transfer students practice for at least a semester before actually risking life and limb in this dangerous game. (Note: bootstrappers and vets new to campus need not wait; battleground experience is considered a suitable substitute.) Style, strategy and ingenuity are encouraged. Don't be upset or discouraged by dents or scrapes either to yourself or your car. Thirty points if you can obtain either of the last two by hav- ing a bootstrapper's car towed away. Twenty points awarded to player who finds parking space on Monday, Wednesday, or Fri- day with between 9:30 and 11:30 without waiting. 5. 11. 10. 4. Ten points if you can't remember whether or not you drove that day. Twenty points for for- getting where you parked your car. 9. Ten-point bonus if you park this close while the driver is still in his car. Five more if you get some foul language. Twenty-five points for parking close enough to the car next to you so that he can't get into his car. Thirty points to the playe who goes down to the book store to buy a bluebook am returris in tiaste only to fin a ticket on his windshield

p HERE is a thin, tough semi-permeable mem- brane covering each door of the meeting places in the Milo Baif Student Center. The membrane permits only like items to pass through. If an inadvertent foreign body breaks the protective covering, anti-bodies quickly form and ward off the invader with the very special antigen known as the 'Cold Shoulder. Similar to cells in the body these coffee room cells succor the 'types'' on campus. Reassurance is the by-product of this unique isolationism practiced by the commuter cam- pusiers. Lack of unity among the entire student body may be traced directly to these carefully selected holes in the wall.
