Armory at 8 p. m.
Composed of an IBM executive,
a chemical engineering professor,
and a professor of information

at UNC-CH.
The cybernetics experts will
speak by turn Tuesday night and
follow the usual pattern of ans
wering questions from the aud
ience after debating among them
selves immediately after the del
ivery of their prepared remarks.
This was done during the recent
visit of socio-economist Robert
Theobald when Professors Robert
Gustafson, Kenneth Jones, and Da
vid Hawk of the St. Andrews fa
culty debated the visiting speaker
after his lecture.

ion is $1.00 per person and casual
clothes will be appropriate, since
viewers will sit in the floor.
The first part of his act will
be devoted to E. S. P. St. James
is one of the few men today who
can identify an object when he and
his assistant are blind-folded.
The second part of his act will
be centered on hypnosis. He will
be putting some of your fellow
knights and ladies, and maybe
even you, into one of his remark
able trances.
At the “Cellar Door” in D.C.,
he had young ladies dancing to
certain types of music and men
marching up the aisles calling out
drill formations. One boy whom
some of you may know, rushed out
thinking he’d forgotten his pants.

gated.

In Memoriam
Death is always with us and is usually tragic. The death of any
young person is always tragic because it eliminates possibili
ties.
The death of Edward Lee Kingis very tragic because it faces
us with a several-faceted sense of unfulfilled potential. Eddie
was a very gifted student whose mind showed promise of
great potentiality—he was, in fact, the most gifted of a gifted
group of students, the Vardell Scholars of the Class of 1970.
In this respect, and other respects, Eddie was a witness to
all of us who have suffered little, that a man can suffer much and
still emerge a productive person.
“In the blest kingdoms, meek of joy and love.
There entertain him all the Saints above.
In solemn troops, and sweet societies.
That sing, and singing in their glory move.
And wipe the tears for ever from his eyes.”
—from John MUton’s “Lycidas,” dedicated
to his friend Edward King
