It is now being filmed in color on more than 35 location sites of Nassau and the Out Islands. Connery rivaled the Beatles, who visited Nassau for three weeks during Easter, in the amount of fan hysteria he whipped up among the several thousand American university stu- World Headlines By STAN CROWE FLUORIDATION REJECTED • A proposal to fluoridate the drinking water in De- Land was defeated last Tuesday, by a 3:1 ratio, where, slightly over half of the voters went to the polls. This vote marked the end of a question which has been discussed for two years. Prior to the vote, 18 Stetson science professors, as well as 38 local doctors and dentists, had declared their strong support of the proposal. This was countered by a massive attack on auto bumpers, radio, and newspapers financed by national anti- fluoridation organizations in which such terms as "rat poison" and "mass medication" were used. DOMINICAN TRUCE Francisco Carrano, speaking:for the rebel forces in ihe Dominican Republic has signed a cease-fire with ihe United States forces. This ends 12 days of fighting in which over 50 of ihe 15,000 American Marines have been wounded. According io an American spokesman, there are at least 58 known Communists operating in the rebellion, although none of these are in ihe leadership. An OAS investigation is now taking place in order io set up a more representative government. This country, one of ihe poorest and least educated in ihe Americas, was for 30 years under ihe dictatorship of ihe Trujillo family and has almost no tradition of self- government. CZECHS POLL MUSIC In Czechoslovakia, the music department of the Czech Radio decided to take a survey.of the students to determine who-was the king of music. The most popular were the Beatles, The Shadows, Ray Charles, Bill Haley, and Elvis Presley, in that order. FOUR-LANE DISPUTED Tallahassee has said ii: it's now illegal for chimpanzees to drive a car. Also in the Capitol, Governor Burns' proposal for a $300 million bond issue to four- lane certain highways (including Volusia's U.S. 17) has come under strong fire. And ihe desire of ihe insurance agencies to raise auto rates by an average of about 20 per cent has been severely criticized. PAKISTAN VS. INDIA The Rami of Kutch (rhymes with can of glutch) is a swampy wasteland between India and Pakistan where 30,000 soldiers have been fighting to get strong positions before the monsoon season starts in several weeks. Ever since the division of India and Pakistan in 1947, this area, as well as several others, has remained in dispute. Pakistan, using equipment donated by American military aid ostensibly to defend the Russian- Pakistan border, has been able to drive far into India- administrated land. RAGS TO RICHES BONGO Britain's newest peejess is Lady Moynihan, otherwise known as "Sherin Berry," a stripper. At ihe death of ihe former Lord Moynihan (just before his trial for illicit morals), Antony Moynihan became ihe new Peer of ihe Realm, in between his sometime job of bongo player for his wife. dents who spent. their holidays on the island. FANS SHOUT While doing a scene in a motor- boat several hundred yards offshore, Connery was amazed to see more than 200 fans treading water, just out of camera range, around his boat. "Speak to us," one of the bold ones shouted. "You're our leader and we're your people." The three continental beauties who are playing the current crop of Bond girls, Claudine Auger (Miss France, 1938-59}, Martine Beswick, and Luciana Paluzzi, created a similar sort of chaos when they first paraded down the beach in the startling swim- suits they wear in the film. Principal photography began, March 1, at Pinewood Studios in England. It followed 8 days of closed-set filming in Paris to record tho throe-minute before- 1 he-titles sequence that has become a trademark of the popular Bond series. IN OCTOBER Details of this sequence will be kept secret until the film's London premier this October. Extensive filming in the Bahamas has utilized the backgrounds of Nassau's luxury hotels and beach, clubs and the marine settings of the Out Islands. More than $2,500,000 has been earmarked for art director Ken Adam's fantastic sets and props. •These include a giant hydrofoil that skims across the ocean. at Greek Gab By GWEN iVIULLINIKS AND FRANK CARTER ALPHA Cm OMEGA On Saturday, May 1, we enjoyed a party given for the chapter by our Orlando alumnae at the Sanford Naval Air Station Officer's Pool.

From an action point of view, "Thunderball" will be James Bond's most exciting screen adventure, with more than one- fifth of the major scenes to be filmed underwater. VILLAIN LARGE"- ' Ian Fleming once said that his greatest enjoyment in writing the James Bond stories came from creating the villains. All of the Fleming heroes must be larger-than-life and the chief menace in "Thunderball" is no exception. He is a swarthy Sicilian millionaire named Largo, the leader in a SPECTRE plot of nuclear blackmail. In their previous Bond films, producers Albert R. Broccoli and Harry- Saltzman have set a pattern of popular entertainment unequaled in post-war film-making. "Goldfinger," still playing in-many-countries of the world, is pointing to the biggest box office receipts of any general release film in motion picture history with the current estimated gross in excess of $35 million. To further this formula they are assuring the public of even greater thrills with an unprecedented $5,500,000 budget for "Thunderball," the majority of which will be spent on luxurious settings, super-gadgets, and an incredible collection of scientific equipment to be shown to audiences on a first-time basis. Production Fails Actors Forget 'Volpone3 Text By FRED YORK Freshman Ned Ricks turned in an outstanding performance in the lead of Volpone in Stover Theater's final production of the year. Jay Mechling as Mosca, the parasite, had the poise of a seasoned actor. Rocki Campbell as Lady Wouldbe, the "Eternal Tongue," got her character across to the - audience weU-.-.-Betiy^WjalkeE-j showed the other extreme as the sensitive Celia, wife of Corvino the merchant. Earl Galitz's original music of Nano, the dwarf, was an innovation.. As always, Walter Sonnsn - burg's sets and technical direction were excellent.' Liz Rogers' hand-made costumes for Celia and Lady Wouldbe were supei-b- ly fashioned. But with all this, you still can't put on a play if all the actors don't know their lines well enough to spout them out. This was the production's downfall. Other players were Angel Castillo, Richard Karberg, Michael Upp, Mike Yoargan, Butch Padgett, Larry Clarke, Don Miller, William Norris, Dan Hale, Chuck Nelson, Charlotte Fizell, Barbara Mullins, Robert Hayes,' Lanny Miller, Dave Casey, and David Machette. Production staff members were Carol Taylor, Linda Rogers, Jane Furlong, Randi Bishop, Wanda Weeber, Chris Hedrick, Jeanie Lesk, Helen Condurelis. Richard Keigley, Mary Ellen Hooker, Yvonne-Plese, Mary Tuxworth, Becky Phillips, and Ruthc Cochran.

FOR INSTITUTES, .SEMINARS University Remains Open During Summer Months TWO BEARDS — At the Stover production of "Volpone," the articulate Mosca (Jay Mechling) listens as Volpone (Ned Ricko) suggests another gift-bearer who must be convinced that his name appears prominently in bed-ridden Volpone's will.
