Who Killed JFK
East Union movie
A tie-in between the Watergate break in i o
the assassination of former President John F .
Kennedy?
According to Bruce Anderson, chairman o"
the East Campus Program Office educational
committee, this possible tie-in will be present" d
in a slide presentation entitled "Who Kilhd
JFK?" tonight at 7 p.m. in the East Camp as
activities building.
The $700 program will be presented by
Robert Katz, from Lordly Dame Inc., a
speaking program bureau.
The slide presentation will include parts of
the Zupruder film. Zupruder, an ana,.-.,
photographer had focused on Kennedy when be
was shot 10 years ago in Dallas.
Zupruder's film shows Kennedy's he a. ; ;,u-
backwards after being shot rather than foi ware:
Ron Burrus, East Union manager, said
some people interpret this to mean h
Kennedy might have been shot from the fro a
as well as from the back as had previously I ..:?: i

Macvey establishes criteria which must be met b
any planet to support life as we know it. U
concludes that there are "probably 100 million
planets capable of nurturing a form of life." He terms
this estimate conservative.
Assuming this, Macvey presents his second c.r.
t'-at of using radio telescopes to detect signals from
Hii.'iligent life.
He explains the background of radio telescopes,
detailing their operation, functions, and the
: i-Mntages and disadvantages of them for studying
the universe.
