TWO COLLEGES IN MIND In the stale Senate last week, there was introduced a bill to create a new state university in Dade County sometime after 1970. Also pending is a bill to create a similar institution in Duval County. The bill is backed by 25 Senators and the University of Miami, a private school, which sees the need for educational facilities in the 197'0's as a pressing problem. NATION AVERTS STRIKE >V \ 'i i .* , Actors Raise Curtain atire Thursday — N - i I ■ < «,* . The threat of "a nation-wide steel strike has been put off for at least four month.. The present wage rate of $4.40 an hour has been raised by 11.9 cents— short of the 17.9 cents an hour raise that McDonald, president of the steel union, has been demanding. Conrad Cooper, industry representative, indicated that, regardless of further labor demands, this figure would not be met.

(Photo by Kleinschmidt) Hats Smash Piano. Swim ? A special committee of the Board of Regents of ihe University of California has come out with a cod© of conduct for students at Berkeley in an effort to quiet the eight months of turmoil that has been shaking the 72,000 students and faculty. "The students have the right of free expression and advocacy." says the code, thus meeting the major demands of ihe students. How* ever, there must be "no hindrance io teaching and students are expected to abide by generally accepted standards of decorum." Whether or not this will satisfy «. Mario Savio and the now-banned magazine "Spider" is not known. PRICE UNCHANGED ■ ■ ■ . The price of a fifth of alcohol won't, be raised from $1.50 to $2. Because of great criticism to Governor Burns' policy -of raising the price of liquor to "help the small distributor compete-with the large-whole-• salers," the Governor has promised to veto this bill if passed. It was' noted that the • state would not receive any additional-taxes as a result of the bill and a rise in moonshining would be expected.. It was further noted that the liquor lobby is perhaps one of the strongest in the state, liberally supplying free booze to all the legis- ■' lators and their parties. 'PLAYBOY'MOVES Chase' Pig During Holiday The crowning of Mr. and Miss Stetson, sky-diving exhibition, piano smashing, athletic events, 72-degree water and plenty of sun all worked together to make Stetson's Hatter Holiday a relief from the academic grind for 350 students.

Concert Tenor Concludes Semester's A&L Program ' Walter Carringer, widely-ac - claimed tenor, appeared last night in concert with the final program of this year's Artist and Lecturers' Series.

The tenor is associate professor . of • voice and artist-in- residence at Northwestern. In addition to his teaching demands, Carringer frequently makes concert tours across the nation'. , His career began at Columbia University where he auditioned and was accepted as the tenor soloist for the Robert Shaw Chorale.

Placement Office Aids Career-Hunt Find yourself in something of a quandry? or, in some cases, a hopeless situation ■ concerning what you are going to do? This is hot uncommon among college seniors', among graduates and even among some who have already begun in business. Looking to the;future poses for each of us the same basic-question, "In what field of enterprise1 will you find the kind of opportunity you can develop into a satisfying career?" Opportunities have never been so many or so varied; the competition has never been keener for initial opportunity for advancement and — for ultimate success. There are very few company campus interviews left for this semester. For those who wish, we -have made arrangements with several outstanding companies for interviews to be conducted at. their offices. Information on this can be secured at the Placement Office, SUB, room 209, each morning. Joe McCawley explained how he uses hypnosis by prescription at a recent SUB Education Committee lecture. 150 students attended. '■..:'. The ethical hypnotist works only by order from dentists, doctors,. and psychologists to help patients . ease pain, overcome fear, and improve their powers of concentration and motivation. "Hypnosis," he commented, "is a state of. high suggestability. When hypnotized, a person is not asleep, but in a position to more readily accept ideas and sug -, gestions," McCawley.added that' a .person in a . hypnotic state would accept no suggestion that he would not ordinarily accept in everyday life.. • OFF-STAGE He warned that hypnosis should' be used under certain conditions and circumstances only. Mc - Cawley and his associates in the Ethical Hypnotist Association are endeavoring to take hypnosis off the stage and use it where it can be of benefit to others. '■ A ■ course in self-hypnosis is offered by McCawley in which college s'udonts may enroll. After screening procedures, the student is taught how to hypnotize himself. He can then give himself post-hypnotic suggestion as , to motivation, study habits, and concentration. AT ACADEMY ; ■ ' It is impossible to remain in a hypnotic state for,more than 15 or 20 minutes if the subject is left alone. When used properly hypnosis can be of great benefit.' McCawley teaches a course in hypnotism,at the Orlando Police Academy, where, he trains officers in the technique of calming a .witness at the scene, of an accident: The lecturer, put .his, secretary under hypnosis , to demonstrate the degrees of the,. hypnotic state. She held, her arm outstretched for nearly, 15 minutes without feeling any discomfort. On posthypnotic suggestion, she went back into hypnosis when Placement Director Harry Edwards shook hands with her. The subject was interesting and well-delivered. McCawley attributed this to self-hypnosis: "I used to be terrified to get up be[ore a group of people," he said. "I used self-hypnosis while driving up from Oilando." time is for smashing a piano with . a metal sounding board. Another record of 4 minutes, 51 seconds has been set for smashing a piano with a wooden sounding board. The athletic events for men and women were held throughout the day, with Lambda Chi •and the Tri-Delts emerging as cumulative winners. A tragedy occurred when someone got too rough with the greased pig, broke its leg, and caused the officials to shoot the animal. ■ •: BOAT ON.HAND Informal . activities included swimming, sunning, and riding in the paddleboats and canoes., A fried chicken lunch was, serv-, ed, after' which two sky-divers parachuted from their small plane into the springs. Thanks to someone's quick, thinking, a boat was nearby when they landed, a fact which probably saved at,least one of them from drowning. Other informal activities in • eluded some skin-diving. Upper- class Head Resident Red Alderman enjoyed a dip in the springs, aided by. a group of his fans. Others investigated the 54-acre park- of which DeLeon Springs is a part.. Door prizes, courtesy of various DeLand merchants, were given away throughout the day. ■ , ABEL DIRECTS Hatter Holiday was directed by a freshman class committee headed by Terry Abel with Darlene Walker as co-chairman. Mary Tucksworth supervised the Mr. and Miss Stetson contest. Steve Rushing and Joanne Smith were in charge of athletic events. Other committee chairmen were Rick Badgley, transportatiion; Jack Samler and Mike Eagen, clean-up; and Glenn Reed, publicity. The SUB's Hatter Holiday Dance Tuesday night was woll- al tended. The DeLand High School cafeteria was filled as The Impacs supplied the music. Eddie Mulock joined the band for a drum solo. "Volpone," the Ben Jonson Elizabethan comedy of human failing, will be presented at Stover Theater, May 6,-8. Jon- son's most popular play, "Volpone" (The Fox) moves from the opening curtain to the close with a relentless logic, supplied with continuing energy on t h e subject of greed. In "Volpone," there are both knaves and fools, the dupers and the duped. It is possible perhaps to sympathize with some of the characters as long as.they are victims. The funniest scenes in this play are probably; those early visits of the gulls, to Vol- pone's sickbed,. each of them lured to the legacy-hunt by, his own lust for property. The observer can only delight in seeing the gulls gulled. ENTER KNAVE-. . But Jonson doesn't leave things in this happy state. As the play progresses, each fool becomes a knave going beyond simple avarice and entering some dimension of crime , or moral turpitude. Jonson makes it difficult for us to identify ourselves with these people and therefore difficult to sympathize with them. We can understand greed, but such general corruption is difficult to forgive. Each of the two main principal intriguers and each of the three main dupes is just as singly motivated by typical human folly as the characters in other Jonson plays. But there is a difference. Each character now shares his folly with the others. In the very names of the characters, ortar: Board the playwright has focused attention on the beastial nature of human beings consumed by the germs of greed: Mosca, the fly; Voltore, the vulture; Corvino, the crow; Corbaccio, the raven; Sir Pol, the parrot.
