Bookings through the William Morris Agency, a world-wide firm, were' "confirmed" in January, Becky reported; but the Student Government's repeated phone calls were, answered with "he is in conference," or "he is out to lunch." She reported that . the Student Government signed a contract and returned it to the agency with a $1,000 check. A man identified as Jay Jacobs told the Student Government in a phone conversation that agency had also signed the contract and it was in the mail, however, it never came. It "has been discovered that Simon and Garfunkel performed at the University of Florida on the night that they were scheduled to play here. .It is believed that Florida's-offer was bigger than Stetson's^ ' Becky Phillips - outlined plans to inform schools throughout the South of the unreliability of the William Morris Booking Agency and of . Simon and Garfunkel. This will be effective, she explained, because Stetson is part of • the Southern University Student Government Association, as well as a block booking conference which includes most Southern schools. Vice-President Shuford promised that the concert will be replaced by a dance, another concert or some such activity pos- sibily during Hatter Holiday.

Richard Shuford again promised that Holler fountain will be cleaned, and he hopes that it will be before Parents' Weekend.
