UCLA History: 5 Cents

Caption: LOWEST FARE IN TOWN-UCLA students board one of the experimental trams Monday as 10-day trial gets under way at Westwood campus. Trams, result of campaign promise by student body President Jeff Donald, will cost the university $1,200 to underwrite during test period. Commuters will pay 5 cents a ride.

Note that five cents sounds cheap, even adjusted for inflation. But the current fare is zero.
