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.

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

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.

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE. 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.
