KING HALL RENOVATED

Crash, ban?, hammer,
thud—King Hall is being
renovated. And although Mary

noises nor the workmen
peering in in the mornings,

Rubin Cancelled
Jerry Rubin, scheduled to
speak at Guilford October 3
as part of the Art Series, has
been replaced with Senator
Mark Hatfield (D. Oregon).
Yippie Rubin has been
replaced due to overwhelming
public response, Cliff Lowery,
Student Activities Director,
announced to the
GUILFORDIAN.
Ticket sales to the public,
necessary to balance the
Series budget, were poor due
to the inclusion of Jerry
Rubin on the schedule,
forcing the Executive
Committee of the Student
Union to cancel Rubins
contract and hire a more
publicly acceptable speaker.
The Art Series budget
consists of $18,000; $12,000
from the college and $6,000
from public ticket sales. Two
weeks after the Series
speakers were announced, less
than $2,000 had been
collected. In years past, the
entire public subscription
would have been complete in
this time but letters and
phone calls to faculty and
administrators agreed with one
pen man who said "I
wouldn't buy a ticket to this
Art Series if it were the last
Art Series in the world."
According to Lowery the
Executive Committee decided
to replace Rubin unanimously
after deciding that Yippie
Rubin was more of a
hindrance than an asset to
the public's view of the

other faculty members are
very enthusiastic about the
changes being made.
The section of King Hall
built in 1910 was torn down
and a new section is being
built to take its place. The
section built in 1949-the
series, as well as the dismal
ticket sales.
The addition of Hatfield
and the removal of Rubin
was announced in the
GREENSBORO DAILY NEWS
on Saturday and on local
radio stations on Sunday and
Monday. On Tuesday fifty
ticket orders were received.
During the two weeks
following the public
announcement the ticket sales
picked up and over $3,000
worth of subscriptions were
sold.
