During the course of this academic year several special guests visited the campus. To avoid a depressing lull in social activity. Bufiy Sainte-Marie was contracted to give a concert in Haas Auditorium on the week-end after Homecoming. Albert Burke gave a lecture about educa- tion in November, and later that day he led an informal discussion on world affairs in Waller lobby, attracting several hundred students. Thousands of students waited in Haas Auditorium on February 6 to hear Vincent Price speak about art appreciation. Although he was late in ar- riving, students agreed that he was well worth it; they re- ceived him enthusiastically. Afterwards, he visited with the art students for a discussion and critique of their work. Jay and the Techniques were the featured perform- ers during Winter Week-end. And Yulbet and Hendra, an Enghsh comedy team, performed in Haas in March. 25
