and creditable record of having
traveled 68,000 miles, perform
ed for more than 500,000 adults
and reached 1,203,000 school
children with 664 concerts.
Counties thousands, too, have

of 66 measures.
Of this figure, the Student
Party is way out in front of the
University Party in measures
introduced and effected 42-17.
Five measures were placed
on the Legislature agenda un
der joint sponsorship, and two
were introduced directly out of
committees.
A. breakdown by sessions is as
follows:
17th Assembly, Second Ses
sion: UP 7 measures passed,
SP 23 measures passed;
18th Assembly, First Session:
UP 7, SP 12;
18th Asembly, Second Session:

18th Assembly, the tables have
been turned, and the UP has a

which interest them.
So far planned there are six
free movies, watermelon festival
(first term), return engagement
of Polgar, the hypnotist? (Sec
ond term), and a lecture bv
George V. Denny, entitled
"Give Your Mind A Chance"
(first term).
In addition to these programs,
there will be several produc
tions presented by the Plav
rnakers and the Music Dept.
According to Jim Wallace.
Director of GM, "there will be
no GM or Y program as such.
There will be only one pro

over-all campus program. "-
