Mayor Sullivan Hopes for Increase In College's Cooperation With City

Cambridge's new mayor, Edward J. Sullivan, said last night that he hopes the University will "see things my way" in the next two years and "give this great city a break by cooperating better than in the past." He added that "inconsiderate student parking" was the main sore point between students and local citizens, and he advocated banning all undergraduate cars except emergency cases.

Sullivan stated that he would not ban faculty automobiles.

A ban on student vehicles is unlikely, however, as a majority of the City Council, which must approve any restrictions, opposes the move. University officials have said that they do not contemplate any ban on undergraduates' autos.

"Student riots have caused much damage and annoyance to the citizens of Cambridge in the past," Sullivan said, "but they seem to have fallen off of late. I don't know why; may be this new generation is a little more sober." Sullivan favors strict enforcement of liquor laws.

The new mayor declined comment on University expansion or on the city's urban renewal scheme, which would rebuild large sections of the city with the aid of federal funds. "I haven't given these problems enough study," he said.

All four CCA-endorsed councillors, who had opposed Sullivan in his successful bid for mayor, said that they expected no dramatic changes under the Sullivan regime. "If he tees the mark, we're with him, but if he wants a flery administration, he can get that, too," Councillor Joseph A. DeGuglielmo '29 commented yesterday.

Sullivan indicated that he favors no new traffic laws, but rather strict enforcement of the present regulations, which do authorize towing-away of any car which is a hazard or obstruction to traffic.
