Mr. Du home improvement Frank Nero, president of the Student Organization and the spokesman for 10 students who staged a sit-in Wendesday in protest, said a boycott was still possible if the administration fails to meet student demands for on-campus parking. The sit-in ended Wednesday. Nero said he expects support from most if not all of the 3,200 students and many of the faculty members, who he claimed will cancel classes if the boycott is held. The parking and security issues are connected.

Students claim that the rape of three coeds in a four-month period would not have occurred if the girls did not have to walk some distances from the campus to find parking spaces. Nero said the student organization seeks a paved or graveled parking lot on the campus proper, but the administration contends it would cost too much. The administration proposed "In September 1967," Dr. Smigel testified, "I sold all my holdings, amounting to 50 per cent of all stock in all three corporations, to Dr. and Mrs.
