OLR HL R MCAM ES TO RETERÀ — Volume 60 Number 49 Proposed decal hike draws opposition By RONNIE RAMOS Hurricane Editor in Chief Talk of increasing the price of parking decals by $10 next year has met strong opposition from the Undergraduate Student Body Government. The reason for the increase revolves around a $200,000 clerical error, funds for a $1.5 million parking garage that hasn’t been approved and a shortfall in revenue from parking fines — which totaled more than $500,-000 last year Three different reasons have been cited for the increase. The USBG Senate, in passing a bill unanimously (25-0) Wednesday prohibiting the proposed increase, said the hike is to make up for a $200,000 clerical error. The Senate’s Category D bill requires a response from the administration within 30 days. Joseph Frechette, executive director of Public Safety, said in a memo to the Parking Authority that the increase is needed to defray costs of maintaining and upgrading parking facilities and provide added revenues for a parking garage that has not been approved by the university administration “We are trying to get some money," Frechette said Thursday, "in order to redo some new lots and so in the future we can get into building a parking garage." USBG President Mark Cheskin said the increase is to make up for budget mismanagement "By the administration admitting they want a $10 increase, they're admitting they mismanaged the whole parking budget," he said. ”|The increase| is a wav to compensate for cuts in the business affairs budget of Public Safety." The clerical error was made last year when the Parking Department was given $200,000 too much in a transfer. The controller's office noticed the error three months ago and informed the Parking Department that it would be getting $200,000 less this year. The Parking Department has itemized $324,861 worth of parking construction needs for 1984-85. The surplus budget was expected to be $233,073 — before the department was told that $200,000 would not be coming But UM Controller Glen Cardwell said the department should not be completely surprised .. ^ ‘'J' Parking Department has not been shorted whatsoever," Card-,e . J‘V.didJ1’t ask whV they got more last year and planned to spend on that basis. They’ve known this for a long time " „ . Frechette said the money "was given to us early last year, and at the end of the year they gave us another $200,000." He added that he didn't notice the mistake. "It doesn't jump out at you because there are also a lot of bills in there. If Cardwell hadn't seen it. we would have spent it." ?arinSS ',s revenU(‘s from two sources — parking fines and decals.

The amendment needed a two-thirds vote — 142 in favor — to pass. In a heated meeting that evoked passionate speeches from both sides, many members who do not regularly attend the meetings appeared to cast their ballots. "The depth of feeling on this is incredible," said one member. The vote, held at the Holiday Inn on South Dixie Highway across from the University of Miami, was the society's first on the issue 1976. Many of those who appeared to vote against the amendment did so because they wanted to maintain the tradition and not to be told what to do by UM President Edward T. Foote, who has said that Iron Arrow will not be allowed to return to campus unless it agrees to admit women. “We stood by our principles, and we will be back on campus," one member said as he walked out of the ballroom. Chief Ken Use said that while he was disappointed with the vote. "I am pleased about the way the vote was conducted and the turnout here tonight." “I am really disappointed in the vote,” said Medicine Man Aurelio Quiñones. "I don't think the organization has proven itself worthy of the leadership it can provide The campus will suffer most from this vote.” Lise said the next step for the university is to convene the organization's leadership and find out where the society wants to go. former Son of Chief Eddie Poz-zuoli said, "If everyone in that room showed up to the tappings, luncheons and supported the organization on a day-to-day basis, I would feel a lot better about this vote." Student Jim Weber said, "Two-thirds of the people in that room were closed-minded before they started. Half tried to vote while the discussion was still going on. I almost cried because I was so embarrassed that these men couldn't come in with an open mind." "I love it." was former Chief C. Rhea Warren s reaction to the vote. "Dr. |Bowman Foster| Ashe did not form this organization as a coeducational society. It was formed based on Indian traditions, and we voted to keep it that way." Warren said that he plans to propose an amendment that would ban consideration of the issue of whether to admit women for a long time. "This seven-year bloodletting will kill us," Warren said. Tim Anagnost, who graduated in 1965, said he voted against the amendment because of tradition “There is not enough ol that at UM." he said. •'This is not a rejection of women. It is simply reinforcing tradition." Several members said they fell that the tribe could sue the university and get back on campus. "I believe we could have an injunction and be back on campus tomorrow," one member said. Neil Schiff. vice chairman of the Board of Trustees and an Iron Arrow member, said that the uni- versity's position against permitting Iron Arrow on campus unless it ad mits women would not change. "The executive board |of the Board of Trustees! has gone on record as supporting President Foote's decision." History of Iron Arrow By GEORGE HAJ Hurricane Staff Writer Iron Arrow's vote Thursday evening on whether to admit women capped an eight-year battle with the U.S. government and the university administration. Iron Arrow battled itself this year, holding a controversial election for officers that resulted finally in the election of a student chief for the first time in a decade. The U.S. Supreme Court's decision declaring Iron Arrow's court case moot ended the legal battle and forced a vote on the key issue of whether to admit women. Iron Arrow has been righting to return to campus since 1976, when then-UM President Henry King Stanford was given an ultimatum by the U.S. Department of Health.
