Liason Weak
By Nancy Whitfard
There are "breaks in the
communication between the
University and the legislature
and the public as a whole
and they must be repaired.
Sea. Richard Marvel of Has
tings told members of the
American Association of Uni
versity Professors.
Marvel, said people "out
side the college walls' never

college is doing.

begun with the assucp
tktm that the University is
basically soaad and only
seeds a paint and polish job,"
Marvel said.
There are two sides to the
communications picture. Peo
ple request information and
foe University interprets its
goals and mission to the leg
islature and people.

"One of the great trage-

weal oa to say that fa the years past the attoadaace always
ranged betweea 2W aad 2S4.
During the conference, the stodenls will get a chance
to see IS dii'ferent demonstrations of basic science in action
in agriculture and home economics, outlined Dr. Eliridge.
"AgSckace"
This conference on "Science in AfricuMaire" has been
developed by the College of Agriculture to call to the
attention of capable high school students in the upper
scholastic quarter of their Junior or senior class:

E-Week program that e n g i-

come this opportunity to give
you a view of the interests
and the activities of our fu

no time i the affairs of man

soch an important role as it
does today."
He noted a conservative de

Major Element
"Technical experts in all
phases of applied science are
being called upon in increas
ing numbers to participate as
instruments of our national

ing seem to constitute the
major element in the defense
of our country."
"The traditional challenge
