Ron Knapp, Bob Haskins, Jim Lowe, Lenny Glasberg, Doug Grey, Gene Lopreste, Don Hall, and Earle Hunt saw iri the world famous coffee houses of San Francisco and New York an idea for using : Stetson talent. The Garage is intended, to provide .any musically, inclined student with' an informal setting where, he can demonstrate his talent for jazz, folk music, and the works of. the classical composers. All a musician has to do' is drop in on a Friday night, see one of the .promoters and discuss what he has to offer. Garage goers have been.hearing a new ensemble made up of Dan Fletcher, piano; Don Waldrop, vibes and bass; Jackie Robinson, trombone and vocal; and .Jerry Bartholow, - drums. Tonight will be devoted mostly to folk music."Bob Bidwell,- Bob Haskins, and • Jim Lowe will arrange themselves, in various combinations on vocal and guitar. The Garage is? non-profit ,and as such cannot pay those who perform. All- who are interested in solos, ensembles, programs, etc., should come to The Garage. any Friday evening between 8 p.m' and midnight. MX).

Ferguson, senior editor of. the Readers Digest, will speak' oh the- general subject of the importance of words in Stetson University's, Elizabeth Hall auditorium, Thursday, Nov. 2, at 8 p.m. The talk is free and the public is cordially invited. y - ' Thursday morning, ' Ferguson will talk to groups of Stetson advertising and public relations students in' the School of Business and advanced English students in the College of Liberal Arts. He will also be a University, dinner "guest in the Stetson Union's private dining" room. . Ferguson has been on the Digest staff .for 21 years, with one year but. as' cultural relations officer in the U.S. embassy in London. He is the, author of the best seller in 1958.. "Naked to Mine Enemies," a biography of Cardinal Wolsey. He was at 'one time editor of the "Bookman" and . religious editor for Doubleday & Co. Inc. r Ferguson is also the author of "A ' Confusion of Tongues," "A Review, of Modem Isms," "Pigskin,", "50 'Million Brothers," "A Little Democracy Is a Dangerous Thing," "Say'It With Words." students to support the soccer team and this SGA activity by purchasing dance tickets. Says Jim, VThis dance tonight; and the ones scheduled for the future, are for the students, themselves. If they want casual dances where bermudas may be worn and where they can really "dance," they will have to break down and buy a ticket. Why, if only 700 tickets are sold, SGA will be able to sponsor five terrific dances this year!" Last year was the first time that it was possible for SGA to, sponsor informal dances. This was due to the fact that the" part of the activity fee which goes to the Student Government could not be used for dances, because there was objection by some Stetson students to student sponsored dances. It would not be fair for these students to" have to pay for the dances, in such a situation. The SGA, therefore, . devised the method of selling entirely separate tickets - for the social events it sponsors. - In, addition to- Chairman Jim Stuart, other committee heads for the dance include .Nancy Walker, ticket sales; Don, Clark, ticket collection; and Jim Murphey, decorations. Members of the ticket committee are Kenny Butler, Jo Parks, Eileen Lipthrott, , Danny Peterson, Bill Penrose, Barb Hul- bert and Jim Stuart. •' - ■ ' Nancy Walker,, vice president of SGA, has this to say, "Last-year everyone came, to the SGA dances and really had a blast! There's no reason why we can't this year. So what if there is.a "Gator Growl" at Gainesville tonight?. We'll have our own "Hatter Howl" , here in DeLand!"
