One week ago today, sophomore Catherine Hill was crossing a very effective death trap known as University Drive. At the tame time, one of the many considerate Fort Worth driven decided to brake—five feet away from the girl. The outcome could have been tragic, but lucidly she escaped with a laceration, a few scratches and a pounding heart. Catherine managed to drag herself over to the infirmary, receive aome sympathetic care and still have enough breath to curse the kamikaie driving that is practiced in this dry. But the steering will never get any better. People win continue to drive over stop signs and accelerate through bridges. The way Fort Worth drivers whin around city streets, automobile warranties turn pale green with fright. HOW M Now there is a solution which is rather modest and embarrassingly BKM simple. The administration of this school should consider a stop light. ) It is hard to understand why the University has yet to go before the dry council over this matter. Are we waiting for a tragedy? Does it matter mat students look at the oncoming cars with very real fright? The fact is a girl could have easily died out in that frantic rush. Cars refuse to

Perhaps if people had to live in . the Fort Worth Zoo's cages, El vie Turner, zoo director, would have an easier time. But it's the animals who are forced to bouse in these an- tiquated quarters. The irate tenants in the ape house can't understand why they can't have a better place to live. The last November bond referendum which asked for fund* to construct a new ape house in addition to other zoo contraction projects failed by about a 1,000 votes, he says. To Turner and the apes, building a new ape bouse is still the primary concern of the zoo. But the chances of the one and one half million dollar project ever being finished are not good, he says. "What really bugs me is the public's apathy," he says. , "People sympathize with the zoo's problems, but don't do anything to help." "I haven't met a person yet who voted against the bond," he wryly remarks. "But there just * weren't enough people voting when it counted." Most of the buildings in the zoo today were built in the 20's and 30's, according to Turner. "They're just not adequate anymore," he says. The biggest problem with the „ Port Worth Zoo-and zoos today throughout the United States-is financing, he says. "Zoos are often overlooked when cities are budgeting." "It would cost very little to get the Fort Worth Zoo in top notch shape," be says. The zoo is currently seeking funds to construct new quarters for the rhinos. About $12,000 to . $13,000 has already been raised, Turner says, but it will take $50,000 to pay for the project. The zoo also needs funds for better restrooms, more lighting and new sidewalks, Turner says. Funds for a new education building are already in hand, however, and construction should begin in about 2 months, • building will have a Annually about 100 million Many of the personnel in other difficulty surviving in their New legislation is being passed 1 auditorium for slide people in the United States go to a zoos throughout the nation were native environments. every day protecting animals an lab, classrooms, offices zoo at least once, says Turner. trained in the Fort Worth Zoo, More animals are being born in and providing standards for mu for zoo superintendents and At the Fort Worth Zoo, he says, according to Turner. zoos, says Turner, to the point animal care in zoos.
