PAGE EK;tiT Center Expansion Viewed As Investment in Future President Eric A. Walker said Saturday that the expan sion of the Altoona Center is an investment in the future of that city. Dr. Walker spoke at the groundbreaking ceremony for a $555,000 building on the Ivyside campus. Citizens of the Al toona area raised $405,000 of the amount while the University provided $150,000. By 1970, Dr. Walker said, twice as many young men and women will be seeking admission to our colleges as were admitted this past year. This will mean large expansions in physical plants, in creased facilities and increased salaries for faculty members, he explained. Colleges to Bear Duty Farce Set For Stage In o►ld Main "John, Tyb, and Sir John" by John Heywood will be presented :it 7:30 p.m. Thursday in the Little Theatre in Old Main. Written in 1525, the pre-Shakes pearian one-act farce was origi nally titled "A Merry Right Tale of Johan-Johan the husband, Tyb the wife, and Sir Johan the priest?' First performed by the choir boys of St. Paul's Cathedral in London. the play was written for the popular "rather down to earth" audiences of the 16th cen tury, rather than for literary values. Play is Term Project The play is being presented as a term project for English Lit erature 480 by George Cavey, graduate student in theatre arts from Springfield, director; Rich ard Higgins, graduate student in theatre arts from Pebble Beach, Calif., set designer; and Delmar Hendricks, graduate student in theatre arts from Reasnor, lowa, costume designer. Cast members ar e Theodore Pauloski, freshman in horticul ture from Sharon, as John-John; Joyce Andruzak, senior in arts and letters from Sinking Springs, as Tyb; and William Warthling, junior in arts and letters from Honesdale, as Sir John. The original verse form, ex cept those words unfamiliar to today's audiences, has been re tained and the costumes and sets have been designed in the spirit of the 16th century. The play is open to the public. Faculty to Hear UNIVAC Talk Dr. John Mauchley, head of UNIVAC Applications Research Division.

PENNSYLVANIA This growing demand for ad mission to our colleges will pro i vide the American system of higher education with perhaps the greatest challenge it has ever faced, Dr. Walker said. "Much of the responsibility for meeting this challenge will have 'to be borne by the community colleges," Dr. Walker continued, ;explaining that long-range plans 'of the privately endowed colleges l and universities show they do not plan to increase their enrollments !significantly. The University president em phasized that land-grant and 'state-supported universities can ,not meet these demands solely, ( through on-campus, resident in •struction. Opportunity to Be Welcomed "We shall have to have in creasingly more help from the community colleges," he contin ued,, and said that within the next few years community schools may have to accept almost full ;responsibility for the first two years of college training, permit ting the central campuses to con- Icentrate upon the upper-division land graduate work that requires more elaborate and expensive laboratories and equipment. "Forward-looking communities welcome this challenge as 'an opportunity because the eco- I nomic, social, and cultural health of the community is going to de (pend increasingly upon the local 'supply of h;glily educated, pro fessional people," Dr. Walker said. Brainpower in Demand Pointing out that today the critical need of business and in dustry is not transportation or raw materials, but brainpow•er, Dr. Walker believes that business and. industry are going to be drawn more and more to those cities and communities that have the best chance of providing a continuing supply of brainpower. "This development, therefore. is a significant investment —an investment that will pay tremen dous dividends in the future of Altoona youth, of the Altoona economy, of every facet of the life in the Altoona area," ne said.
