SUB. WITHOUT PLANS
FOR BIG CONCERTS
IN NEW GYM
By-John Sengle
At the present time the
Student Union Board has no
plans for any large scale con
certs according to Ray Kissner,
President of the S.U.B. Kis
sner attributed this mainly to
the limited operating budget
he has to work with. To get
an established group would
probably cost about $l,OOO to
$2,000 and in Kissner's words,
"We just don’t have that kind
of money to work with."
Although the S.U.B. has
no plans at the present time
to schedule large-scale con
certs in the new Ilighacres
Physical Education Building,
Dr. William David, Campus Di
rector, said, "Yes, having con
certs in the new gym of the
sit-down type is definitely
possible."

vote for the person o 8 people
that you voted for?" Since

LANE
TO
The foremost critic in the
world of the Warren's Commise
sion's report on the John F.
Kennedy assasination, Mark Lane,
spoke to a crowd of 700 people
in the Physical Education
Building on Wednesday night,
January 19. The lecture was
sponsored by The Student
Affairs Cultural Series and
The Highacres Club Advisory
Council. Lane spoke for three
hours and his remarks were
well received by the crowd,
as was apparent by the almost
300 signatures that appeared
on a mailgram to Thomas O'Neill,
Speaker of the U.S. House of
Representatives, asking for a
reinvestigation of the Kennedy
and King assasinations.
"I think that through this investigation," said
Lane, "we will learn whether or not our elected of
ficials really run the country." (Photo courtesy of

Lane's speech was divided
into three parts. His first
part, which was the most
lengthy portion of his speech,
dealt with Lane's opinions of
the investigation of the F. 8.1.,
the C.1.A., and the Warren
Commission into the Kennedy
assasination.
"I believe that the Warren
Commission was appointed for
the purpose of assuring
the Americah people that a
conspiracy never occurred- for
proving that Oswald was the lone
assasin," said Lane.
However, Lane concluded
that Kennedy was shot from two
