New Post Office Boxes
Installed On AC Campus
Three hundred ninety new post
office boxes have been installed
in the post office located in the
Bohunk here on campus. The Board
of Trustees of Atlantic Christian
College approved this installation at
their October meeting, and the box
es arrived just recently.
Atlantic Christian College operates
what is known as a contract station
on its campus for the convenience
of its students, faculty, and staff.
The college has to furnish the lo
cation, the boxes, and the help for
putting up the mail. The rents col
lected from the boxes do not go
to the college but instead have to
be turned over to the U. S. Post
Office authorities.
The new installation consists of
345 No. 1 boxes, 20 No. 2 boxes,
and 15 large drawer size boxes.
The drawer size boxes will, for the
most part, be used by departments.
The other boxes are available to
faculty and students on a first
come-first serve basis as far as

size is concerned. This new series of
boxes begins with number 5001. This
was necessary because the local
post office had numbers which con
flicted with our original numbers
here at the Atlantic Christian Col
lege station. For that reason, they
requested us to use larger numbers
when ordering our new installation.
Students, faculty, and staff are re
quested to advise their correspon
dents to use the new post office
box numbers when writing to them.
It is most important that the post
office box number be included on
letters being received by members
of the faculty, staff, and students
here on the campus.
This installation is being put in
for the express convenience of
those here on the campus, and
they are reminded that they should

The Lettermen Scheduled
To Make Appearance At AC
The Lettermen boast one of the
freshest, most magnificent vocal
blends of any group in the en
tertainment field, and the sound has
brought them almost instantaneous
success.
Individually, Tony Butala, Jim
Pike, and Bob Engermann had been
group vocalists for some time, Tony
singing in a quartet and Jim and
Bob in trios. Tony and Jim met
during a shift in one of the vocal
groups that brought Him to audi
tion for Tony’s group. It was at this
time that Jim ,told Tony he had
only once previously run into some
one with whose voice his blended
'0 well. His name was Bob En
germann. They had met at Brigham
Young University. When the group
disbanded, Tony and Jim decided
to go to California to find Bob. Thus
was born “The Letermen.”
The boys try to fill the current
entertainment gap by giving the
public, adults, as well as the
’^oungsters, what they want to hear.
The Lettermen blend their voices
on the old, standard ballads in com
bination with todays new instru
mentation. They sing folk songs,
old songs, new songs but always
in their style.
Tony, Jim, Bob, whose Capitol
Records have sold in the millions,
love their work to the point where
it is not actually work at all. When
they’er not singing on stage, they’er
more than likely off in a corner
singing for pure enjoyment. They
rehearse no matter where they are
and usually end up singing for a
group of fascinated fellow travelers
in 48 countries. He said it is the
hope of the Peace Corps to have
12,000 volunteers by the end of the
summer.
Mr. McGinn went on to say that
the main idea of the Peace Corps
was to supply skilled people to
countries for growth. He said that
the success of the program was
probably due to the fact that the
volunteers work as individuals with
something to give to the people,
and not as representatives of the
American government. He said that
under these conditions mutual re
spect and understanding is quickly
gained and held between the volun
teers and the people.
Mr. McGinn concluded his re
marks by saying that America mu.st
take a real interest in the rest of i
the world, and learn through mu
tual respect and understanding what
there is in order to carry active
leadership of the free world.
After dinner a film about the
work of the Peace Corps was shown
in the main lecture room in the
Science Building, and Mr. McGinn
was there to answer the questions
which arose. '
