Caption: "Overcrowding of University Hospital's nursery and obstetrical facilities raised fears Wednesday of a "staph" infection outbreak. Officials reported the hospital's newborn nursery, equipped for a maximum of 30 infants, has had an occupancy of 50 to 55 the last two weeks.

Caption: "Despite thousands of students cars parked in school lots, police say there are no added traffic problems around high schools since start of classes. "We get quite a few calls about hot-rodders and such, but there have been no complaints of large traffic jams and similar problems," Traffic Capt. S. W. Stephens said. There's a junior rush-hour between 3 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. daily when school lets out. But it is not enough to require police to send extra traffic officers.........Other high schools in the city are on streets that are not very heavily traveled at the time school lets out. And some - such as Central, on Robinson, and Douglass, at NE 10 and Eastern - don't have many student-owned cars to create a problem. Stephens acknowledges there are frequent complaints from residents of neighborhoods around schools because students park on side streets, and because of reckless drivers, during lunch hours and after school."
