The sponsor of the sports program, which runs from 5:30 to 6 p.m., has refused to give up his time to televise the first Spring Week event. However, Jun Hiller, chair man of the week, said there is still a chance the parade will be televised. Niiler said that with the station manager and the University in favor of the telecast it is possible a last min ute change in the sponsor's atti tude may be made. The decision on the part of the sponsor not to show the parade came after the Board of Trustees had given permission to have a sponsor for a University func tion. Johnson said he had hoped to get the parade on the television Blocks •of tickets for the Spring Week Awards Night April 29 will go on sale at the Hetzel Union desk today. Only seats sold in blocks will be reserved. cable which services a large seg ment of the state but conflicts in local station programming had stopped this idea. However, he said that the parade may still be filmed for broadcast at some other time more convenient to the local stations. According to Niiler. the parade will still be run as though it was being televised. This means it will start at 5:30 p.m. and run from east to west on Pcllock Road and then from west to east on College Avenue. This would enable the tele vision cameras to be set up on Boucke Building and get more of the parade than if they were on College Avenue. Niiler said special arrangements had been made with the borough to run the parade from west to east. He said they usually wanted parades run in the other direction to leave the way open for fire (Continued on. page eight) If weather permits they will,per form on the netzel Union lawn; if not, in the ballroom.
