Registration Woes M ay End
When Computers Take O ver

SING OUT — Julie Castennan and Jim Connor are two
of th e th re e folk singers who w ill perform during th e
final sum m er MU Lecture-Luncheon. The th ird folkm an
Norm H eard, who has played here several tim es before,
w ill also be p a rt of th e program .

Every one of the 8,175 stu­
dents who shuffled through re­
gistration for the second sum­
mer session can take heart. The
day is coming when both sum­
m er sessions will be pre-scheduled by computer.
“We’re working mi it,” said
Alfred Thomas, J r., Registrar.
“The main problem has been
lack of computer time between
sessions,” he explained.
The acquisitimi of a second
computer this year should re­
duce the work load and time
needed to process 8,000—11,000
students.
THOMAS EXPECTED
the
crush of walk-through and took
special measures to alleviate it.
He made registration packets available for a week, but only
1,000 students picked them up
mid saved time by filling them
out before Saturday.
Thomas’ staff, knowing the
ways of the impatient student,
began work at 7:30 instead of
the scheduled 8:00.
As expected, the second ses-

M U Bills Folkmen lor Concert
Heard to Highlight Program in Ballroom
It’s the MlTs last lectureluncheon of the summer series,
and It has decided to go out
with a bang rather than a whim­
per. Today a t 12:15 the MU ball­
room will ring out with its own
“down-to-earth” folk concert.
The past four lecture-lunch­
eons have been either informa­
tive or educational. But this one
has been planned strictly for
entertainm ent Mike Ityron, MAT
program director, has search­
ed the Valley and has come up
with three exciting folk singers.

Regents Create
First Riot Code
Although the University has
never asporfeneed a m ajor (or
a minor) riot, the Board of Re­
gents has formulated a tenpoint code to cope with any dis­
turbances that might occur.
The ordinances state that no
one m ay enter University pro­
perty with the intent to com­
m it: a breach of criminal laws,
state or national; violent, ob­
scene or disorderly conduct with­
in the boundries of the campus.
The ordinances were filed last
Week with Secretary of State
Wesley Bohn under the State
Administrative Practices Act,

Inn, Mountain Shadows
and
other night spots in the Phoenix
area.
Norm Heard m igrated to
Phoenix via—in his own words—
“running away with the circus.
I was only 35 years rid a t the
tim e.”
The University of Texas grad­
uate decided he should make
something out of himself but
never gave too much thought to
performing as a living. After
becoming established in a suc­
cessful cam er as a data proces­
sor, Heard decided that wasn’t
the life for him. So he picked
up h it twelve string gutter and
has bam singing far Ms sapper
ever since.
THE TWO OTHER folk per­
formers in today’s concert m ay
not be m writ known in tee
Valley as Norm Hoard bat they
have, in their young careers as
entertainers, already made a
place for themselves as true
folk musicians.
Adding a famine teach to foe
MU program will be Julie Castertnan, a ballad-folk singer who
began her stage record with a
small fdk group called “The
Californians.” She was quickly
discovered by Randy Sparks of
foe New Christy Minstrels. He
signed her with the group, and
she has been singing ever since.
Miss Castennan is currently
involved with her first USO
Show tour with the MU’S third
folk entertainer, Jim Conner.
CONNER RECEIVED
Ms
BA . from Birm ingham Soutband attended Har-

folk sing. That talent came horn
“Grandma and Grandad, Flor­
ence and Ed Setzen,” who play­
ed banjo and harmonica and
sang folk ballads to him when
he was a small boy back in
Gadsden, Ala.
Today’s concert will begin
with a buffet luncheon from
12:15 to 12:45 in the ballroom,
but reservations for this should
have been made by Tuesday.
If their are any seats avail­
able the doors will be opened
after the luncheon for those in­
terested in hearing, the folk con­
cert.

sion is 73 per cent of the first.
This pattern has held for the
last 16 years. The number of
students enrolled in the sec­
ond summer session since 1952
and their percentage to the first
are: 1952, 1,212, 71 per cent;
1956, 2,221, 73 per cent; 1960,
3,095, 72 per cent; 1964, 5,490,
50 per cent; 1965, 5,961, 69 per
cent; 1966, 6,924, 72 per emit;
1967, 7,354, 73 per cent; 1968,
8,175, 73 per emit.
When dealing with such large
numbers of people, unexpected
problems can arise no m atter
how well the planning.
THIS SESSION’S main pro­
blem was in the final stage of

registration—fee payment. One
student criticism is that three
checkpoints before final pay­
ment are unnecessary,'
but
Thomas doesn’t agree.
The floor in the Mens’ P.E.
Building was being sanded, so
operations were shifted abrupt­
ly to the Womens’ P.E. Build­
ing.
“The Womens’ P.E. Building
won't handle a crowd as fast
as the Men’,” said Thomas
“we could get 15 cashiers in the
Mens’ Building, but only 10 in
the Womens’.”
“If we could depend on every
student, they wouldn’t be ne(Continued on page 3)

Pianist Will Appear
In Gam mage Concert
Sometimes known as “the
child prodigy who made good,”
pianist Samuel Lipman will ap­
pear in Grady Gammage Tues­
day, Aug. 6 at 8 p.m. as part
of the auditorium’s Summer Con­
cert Series.
Rather than another product
from one of Europe’s music cap­
itals, Lipman was bom in Cal­
ifornia and made his debut as
a pianist at the age of eight.
He enjoyed all the glories be­
stowed upon a child prodigy,
studying with such m asters as
Lev Shorr and Alexander Libermann.
BETWEEN THE child prodigy
Lipman and the m ature artist
Lipman is the political scient­
ist lipm an. In 1952 he entered
San Francisco State College
while giving concerts in foe
Bay area. Upon graduation he
received a National Woodrow
Wilion Fellowship for graduate
Unity in political science.

• w n m u a m s u v a •morning- <
learned Im i An. m orning Brasa t2 0 to 10:30 in Hie Pagoda Room.

He received his m asters de­
gree and was awarded an
appointment as teaching assist­
ant in American and Compara­
tive government a t the Univer­
sity of California.
But the pull of the concert
stage attracted Lipman and he
found it difficult to refuse the
offers to perform wMch were
reaching him at a steady rate.
So he left the University to ap­
pear with the Boston Pops Or­
chestra.
LIPMAN HAS also made se­
veral appearances on National
Educational Television and has
toured as soloist with foe Amer­
ican Wind Symphony.
His Tuesday concert will in­

Italian Students Look U.S. Over
Intrigued by Cities and Hippies
By MARCIA SIMONS
Mama mia!
It’s spaghetti, spumoni and
pizza time.
The University is just one stop
on the map for 10 Italian stu­
dents who have journeyed the
long way from historic Mt. Etna
to legendary Superstition Moun­
tain — about 11,000 miles as
the pigeon flies.
THIS IS Antonio Manroy’s
fourth trip to the United States.
He is the guide for the group
which is traveling under “The
Experiment in International Liv­
ing,” a program which places
students in homes in foreign
countries so they can experience
“living” in another country.
“I haven’t noticed any physi­
cal changes since I was last
here 6 years ago — just many
political changes,” Antonio mus­
ed. “Some cities in the eastern
U.S. are old in one sense of
the word, but Italian cities are
old in a different way — they
are medieval.”
Antonio lives in Milan, the
most industrial city of Italy. He

is the editor of an architectural
magazine. “Politecnico-Architet­
tura,” and operates the only
bookstore in Milan which spe­
cializes in architectural m ater­
ial.
“LIVING HABITS in Italy are
just the opposite of living habits
in America,” said Nicoletta Adorni Braccesi who lives in Flor­
ence. “In Italy, the upper class
lives in the center of the city.
It is the poor and middle class­
es who live on the outskirts.”
ANTONIO SMILED when ask­
ed about the fast-paced Ameri­
can society. “I like the idea of
a fast-moving dynamic society.”
he said. “Yes, dynamic is the
word I would use to describe
it.”
This is his first trip to the
West, and the first time he will
see California. When the group
leaves the campus, it will travel
to San Diego to spend three or
four weeks in American homes.
“Italian students are very con­
cerned about changing their uni­
versities to meet the changing
needs of the students,” Antonio
said, “and there is a strong

student movement to bring
about these needed reforms.
* “THERE IS NOT exactly a
‘hippie movement’ in Italy, he
said, and Nicoletta added, “the
hippies who are in Italy are
usually foreigners. In cities such
as Florence, where there is a
great influx of students from
other countries, there are usual­
ly hippie groups.”
While the group is in the Val­
ley, they have been staying in
the dorms, and touring places
of interest. A hayride, float
down the river and a trip to the
Grand Canyon are some of the
things which have been planned
for them by the International
Students Relations Board.

Plans for sorority rush week,
Sept. 1 through 7, are now being
made by the twelve national so­
rorities on campus, ».said Gail
Walsh, Panhellenic rush chair­
man.
Approximately 1700 pamph­
lets concerning Greek life have
been sent out to incoming fresh­
man and transfer women stud­
ents and 600 booklets including
applications and time schedules
for rush week were sent out
during the past week.
Applications must be return­
ed by August 25 with a $5 cleri­
cal fee.
Rushees planning to live on
campus during rush week will
be housed in Palo Verde West
for an $18 fee which covers
room and board.
The schedule for Sept. 1 in­
cludes open house parties in
the chapter rooms of the sor­
orities in P.V. Main. During
this tim e rushees may become
acquainted with sorority mem­
bers, after which rush parties
will be by invitation only.
On Friday Sept. 6 rushees
will sign preference cards for
■the particular sorority they wish
to join. H ie next day bids, or
invitations to become a pledg­
ing member, will be distributed.
Dress during rush week will
vary from casual to dressy.
Miss Walsh advises girls to
“be natural, be yourself.”
She said the most important
functions of sorority lie are
scholarship, service and sister­
hood. To fulfill scholarship re­
quirements, sororities organize
proctored study tables
for
pledges.
In conjunction with the ser­
vice aspect of sororities, phi­

lanthropic programs and com­
munity service projects benefit
such groups as the Valley of
the Sun School for Mentally Re­
tarded Children.
“Joining a sorority offers an
opportunity for sisterhood which
helps eliminate the feeling of
impersonality new-comers
to
campus might feel,” Miss Walsh
said.
The cost of belonging to a
sorority is estimated a t $250 to
$300 for the first year of mem­
bership and $150 for each fol­
lowing year while the member
is in college. “Sorority mem­
bership should be looked upon
as an investment in the future
rather than merely an expense,”
Miss Wash said.
Full information on rush sche­
dules may be obtained by call­
ing the Panhellenic office at
MU 205, phone 3438. The office
is open daily from 12:30 to 5
p.m.

Teachers Swap Roles W ith Pupils
Daring Summer School Sessions
John and Dorothy Palm er are
both teachers. She teaches Engfish and is working for her mas­

is taking Spanish literature this
summer.
“There are more courses than

MRS. PALMER said that sit­

Mrs. Laura Conner, a teacher
from Arnolds, Iowa, and her
daughter both attend classes.
“You definitely get to feel

Meet Ralph Frey Jr., 18
He is a University Sophomore.
He has a pilot’s license.
He can read 3 ,0 0 0 words a minute.
Watching Ralph’s hand fly over the pages (his hand
acts as a pacer) you can’t believe that he’s actually
reading. He must be skimming.
But he's not.
Ralph Frey can read the average novel in a little
under 40 minutes. (He once read three complete
novels while standing in a bookstore before he was
asked to leave.) Even on the toughest material he
rarely dips below 1,000 words per minute.
Moreover, he can comprehend and recall what: he’s
read—right down to the particulars.
Ralph Frey is not a mental freak. Nbr is he a
naturally fast reader. He learned this revolutionary
technique of rapid reading at thé Evelyn Wood
Reading Dynamics Institute . . . along with more
than 10,000 ether graduates in California. . ,
Ralph was one of our better students. He started

IÇood comprehension— or receive a full tuition refund.
Just to show you that Ralph Frey is not unique,
here are typical samples of progress in words per
minute by Reading Dynamics graduates in Cali fornia.

Utah Khooheacher discovers
technique of dynamic roadlng.

Evelyn Wood first observed dynamic reading 18
years ago when a professor a t the University of
Utah read her term paper a t an amazing 6,000 words
a minute. Mrs. Wood’s curiosity caused her to look
for other exceptional readers, and over the next few
years she found 50 people who could read faster than
1,900 words per minute, with fine comprehension,
outstanding recall and great reading satisfaction.
She was now sure it Was possible to read faster
than anyone had .thought, but the question of hour
was not yet Answered. It todk 8 y e an of toil and re­
search, working with naturally fast readers before
she began to find the answers. Eventually she de­
veloped a technique whereby the average student
was able to Marti to tend 3 to 10 time* faster. .
She taught hey method a t the University of Utah
for three years, refining it' even more. F arther
studies were conducted a t the University of Dela­
ware, and; the first Reading Dynamise Institute Was
opened JA Washington D.C. in September, 1950.
Stae* th at time,'institute* have been opened In u
cities throughout the country, and national enroll­
ment for the course has topped 890,000.
