Planes able to carry 700 people at once? Whole colleges communting around the world? Impossible? Last week, Secretary of Defense McNamara ordered the first 57 C5-A, 700-seat airplanes from the Lockheed Corporation and put an option on 56 more. The planes are able to carry the equivalent of 500 armed troops or two tanks and might possibly completely reshape, warfare. The plane can easily be converted into a commercial transport. PRESIDENT ENTERS HOSPITAL President Johnson has entered the hospital for removal of a poorly functioning gall bladder. The White House surgeon said that the President would remain In the hospital a total of about 12 days, although the surgery was said not to be dangerous. Vice-President Humphrey will assume the President's functions during this time. ■ ' •_' UTAH BANS SENSUOUS DANCES At the Mormon Brigham Young University, in Utah, the administration has banned the "swim, jerk, and other suggestive fad dances that cannot conform to (Mormon) church practices." Violators will be expelled and there will be a program of intramural dancing, similar to intramural athletics, to teach "the fine art of social dancing. One of the biggest problems," said the president of the school, "was that the students learn the dances at high school and expect to do them at college even though they are sensual and unwholesome." NEW YORK WELCOMES POPE Spending 13 hours in New York City, Pope Paul VI called for world peace and good will among men. "Justice and peace have kissed one another. May God grant that this be for mankind's greatest good," said the Pope. Over one million spectators lined New York's streets in the largest welcome ever given a visitor to the city. His most controversial pronouncement was ihe stand he took against the use oi artificial birth control devices. 50,000 CUBANS TO MIAMI Last Sunday President Johnson, sitting at the base of the Statue of Libertyj signed into law a bill eliminating national origin quotas as a basis for allowing immigration. Provision has been made to allow up to 50,000 Cubans to enter the U.S. through Miami. Governor Burns, worried that they might "strain the welcome of the city, has called the President, requesting that the Cubans be encouraged to move into cities throughout the country., SIX GENERALS MURDERED In the most Important rebellion since he assumed control of Indonesia in 1947, President Sukarno is faced with ihe serious threat of a coup d'etat by the Communist generals of his army. Six of his most important non-Communist generals have been found assassinated,' though' Sukarno, speaking on Radio Jakarta, claims to still be In control of ihe capital. Indonesia's Communist Party is the largest one outside of a non-Communist nation and a Communist coup had been feared for years. STUDENTS PAY TO PARK The price of love has gone up. At Iowa State, students scoffed when no-parking signs were placed around the girls' dormitories, so the traffic department started ticketing the parkers while they sat there before curfew. Still no results: they stayed and paid. Considering the terrible traffic problems around Emily just before curfew, maybe this is a way to finally raise some money for a swimming pool. % Wf". ■WW **m'AW**W.VIW.WWY' "■ GREEK GAB !

University Engineer Outlines Science Center?, Dorm, Gym Sixty thousand square feet of classroom and faculty office space may sound like a lot to some, but not to the students awaiting the new science center amidst the limited space where they are now working. "The new science center will be three times larger than the facilities now," stated Marvin Emerson, University engineer. "It will cost over a million dollars and will be completed and ready for use in time for the second semester of 1966." MODERN DESIGN Emerson went on to say, "The building will be fully air-conditioned, of the most modern design, and will provide library facilities also." Another, new addition to the University will be the new business school. Emerson spoke enthusiastically about the plans for it.- "We've recently moved the old business school'ISO-feet to get it out,of the way'of construction," he remarked. "It will be used for classrooms until the fall term of 1966 when the new building will be completed. The old business school is a World War . II Navy barracks converted to classrooms. Five hundred thousand dollars was given by an anonymous donor for the construction, and equipment for the school." "We are also planning the construction of a new men's dorm," Emerson continued. "It will be fully air-conditioned and will house' 150 upperclassmen. The location of this dorm will be directly across the street from Gordis Hall. Until the second semester of 1966, when .the new dorm will be completed, the University will continue to use its newly acquired property: McClure House, Taylor House, Palmer House, Lowe House, and Carson Annex for men's housing." There are also plans for an expansion of the athletic and physical education departments. Planning has begun on a new gymnasium and the department' heads are touring the. country looking at examples of gymnasium architecture to aid, in the choice of design. Announcements The Business.

"The people of Florida and i embers of the Stetson com- i unity have lost a pioneer in t e; teaching of speech arid the il eatre in our State, and a friend Ii every' person his life has t uched," Dr. Edmunds said. "I radied under him as a student at Stetson, worked with him later as a member of our faculty and participated.in many of his theatre productions. Throughout this long period of associations, I have recognized Dr. Stover — as have all who have known him —as a great teacher, a loving family man, a community-minded citizen and. a Christian. His influence will long be felt in our State arid throughout the world where pupils of Dr. Irving Stover will reside." SURVIVORS LISTED Dr. Stover is survived by his wife, the former Harriet M.

Dr. Stover was born in Hanover, Penn. He received his BE from King's School of Oratory, and the BO and MO degrees from Susquehanna University. He met the late Dr. Lincoln Hulley, then president of Stetson University, on the Chautauqua circuit, and Dr. Hulley and others influenced him in coming to Stetson. 55 YEARS'SERVICE In 1908, he joined the Stetson faculty, and remained at the University for 55 years,' retiring in 1963. In 1910, the second year he was at Stetson, Dr. Stover offered a course in public speaking. In the early days, much of this instruction was on a private basis, similar to music study. However, by the early 1920's Stetson had developed so much interest in forensics under Dr. Stover's, supervision, that a major in speech was offered by the University. It was in 1923 that Irving Stover, J. Ollie Edmunds and Eugene Lewis Miller acted the leading roles in . three Shakespearean plays, "Hamlet," "Richard HI," and "The Taming of the Shrew." The theatre seasons at Stetson became an annual highlight for all.of Central Florida, with theatre-goers even coming from miles away to attend Dr. Stover's productions. Each year there was an increasing number of plays staged, and in 1927 a total of 30 were produced in this single season. DOCTOR'S DEGREE Having recognized from the early days of his arrival in Florida that Dr. Stover was a gifted and talented man, Stetson honored him in 1924 by awarding him the degree of Doctor, of Literature. Also, in 1938, in further recognition of Dr. Stover's fine work in the areas of speech and drama, Stetson named its theatre building Stover Theatre. Since that time more than 7,000 students have been able to take part in acting and backstage chores in the fields of speech and play production. The coUege theatre at Stetson, the first in Florida, under his supervision and early direction was used for discipline rather than a stepping-stone to the professional stage. He recognized the theatre as a potent instrument in helping young people prepare for taking their proper place in society, the aim of modern education. Stover Theatre is currently la its 58th season, with the 559th production now in rehearsal. Dr. Stover directed some 475 of these.
