Gordon THE ARRAIGNMENT of several Williams College students in Williamstown District Court recently, for various violations of out a license in his possession.

The defendant was released under $100 bail for his appearance in Superior Court. the motor vehicle laws, has led IN to an apparent growing resent- tion ment among the undergraduate body, with the feeling that students Instead of being brought into more vocal ones who can be heard public places, have expressed the the motor have been vehicle politely admonished and should not have been called upon to answer in court for their offenses. These students prattle of col- Wn at these apostles of the rights be praised an not condemned. There should not be a privileged class in a democracy, and it is to be hoped that both the residents of the town and the students on the college campus believe equally in our democratic way of life. LET US BRIEFLY review the case thaLhas stirred up the most intense feeling.

A student- was stopped by Patrolman Joseph Zoito Jr. for having his car towed on a public way. The student was charged with operating without a registration, operating without insurance, and also without a license in his On his arraignment in court the student pleaded not guilty to all continued. When they came up for hearing Judge -Samuel E. Levine, who presided, permitted the defendant to change his not guilty pleas to nolo pleas and filed two charges while imposing the minimum fine of $100 oh the no-insurance complaint.

Judge Levine then ordered vacated his filing of the $15 on the no-registration complaint and one of $10 for operating with- A PUBLISHED communica- a Williams College student states, "This is-not-the first time this officer has Bought to court cases against students of an extremely trivial nature which warning. "Officer Zoito is apparently unaware of, the fact that a policeman's job is not to find every offender he can get his hands on and prosecute them to the maximum of the law, but rather to administer the law with respect and understanding. "One of the most important elements of good college-town relations is an efficient, intelligent and fair police force. In general this has been provided under Chief Courtney, who is liked and respected by the college students.

But I feel in this case, as in several others, one officer has done a great deal to make students bitter against the town police and the District Court." The communication is signed by Jan W. Rozendaal '61. MR. ROZENDAAL'S communication speaks so loudly of the cry for special privilege for the undergraduate body that he stands condemned by his own words: What he evidently fails to recognize is that towing an uninsured-car and an registered car, even with the motor out, could cause a serious accident; and while the accident might be no less serious if the car were insured, at least the injured party or parties would have some financial redress. If the car, even without a motor, should have broken away from the car towing it, there is no telling- what might have happened.

While Officer Zoito stopped the car on South Street, at least two hills on Main Street, which is a main route, would have had to be negotiated before the motorless car reached its intended destination. With the Williams student body drawn from so- many states it might be a good idea for the college a required course in the motor vehicle laws of Massachusetts and the by-laws rules and regulations of haps all that Board of Appeals Sets Jan. 6 Hearing On Three Petitions The Board of Appeals has advertised three public hearings on petitions for building permits in residential zones that would contrary to the provisions of the zoning by-law.
