Did Union Plan
By RICHARD OKI. IN AS
Plans for the $1.5 million Student Union were sent to the Federal Housing and Home Finance Authority in Atlanta, Ga., this week—but they didn't give enough thought to the cafeteria.
Mrs Dorothy Johnson, cafeteria manager, said yesterday that "sufficient consideration
has not been given for the exacted increase of students who will lie drawn to the new Student Union."
The cafeteria plans call for a 50 per cent increase of present cafeteria space.
"The improvements will help the situation some," said Mrs. Johnson, "but the new sports
facilities will induce many students to remain on campus who now seek their recreation elsewhere
"This will mean a greater increase in the number of students using the dining area.”
ARCHITECT PI.ANS show that a new bookstore will occupy the area now used for the
lower level of the soda shop.
The plans show no expansion of the congested breakfast-line area, and no provisions have been included in the plans for getting ham - and - egg - break-fasters untangled from coffee-and-doughnut-breakfasters.
Tffi- recreational facilities added to the present building will
include a large swimming pool, a twelve-lane bowling alley and tahlc tennis facilities There will also Ire four floors of meeting rooms for clubs and organisations.
A separate dining room will lie constructed for athletes. A faculty dining room will be built on the second floor.
"These improvements will all help the situation,” said Mrs Johnson, "but I still won’t have the facilities I need for accommodating private functions.”
“I do want to emphasize, though,” she said, "that I don't believe the present plans have been accepted as final. There may still be changes."

A project now under consideration by a faculty committee would create at least three additional required courses for all freshmen and sophomores.
The plan was described hv committee chairman and University Vice President Charles Doren Tharp as a move to “decrease the large number of students who drop out for academic reasons.”
I^ast year. University officials estimated, M per rent of the freshman class withdrew—many for academic reasons.
“The new courses would be of the interlocking type," said Tharp, “dealing chiefly with math and the physical sciences, social sciences and the humanities."
“THE COURSES will not he
of the* survey type,” Tharp said
“For example, the humanities course would combine theories of drama, literature, philosophy and point out the cultural development of mankind—to make the student aware of his own cultural development."
The faculty committee, which
has been meeting for the past two weeks, expects to present better-developed plans within a month, according to the vice president.
At present, only the orientation courses are required for all students.

Plane	Can't Land!
Stewardess: ‘Coffee, Tea Or Milk?**
By SCOTT YATES
"Stewardess,” said the worried passenger, “the wing is on fire."
"Coffee, tea, or milk?" she replied.
This sick joke may be funny on records, but to the 45 passengers aboard the DC-7 circling above Miami International Airport Sunday it was anything but humorous.
The plane, coming in from Los Angeles via New Orleans, couldn’t free its landing gear for nearly an hoar.
“1 was scared silly,” said Robert Stanton, UM radio-TV instructor, who helped cover the UM-LSU game Saturday night at Baton Rouge.
Stanton had considered returning with the team, but wanted a good night’s sleep and a quiet trip home, so he decided to go commercial.
His companion on the plane was Jimmy Bums, Miami Herald sports editor.

Gloom Over Miami
ALL WAS PEACEFUL until Stanton happened to look out the window. Turning to Bums, he said, “Jim, are you sure we’re on the right plane?”
“Damned right we are,” said Bums. “We checked for an hour in New Orleans to make sure.”
“Don't look now," said Stanton, “but we just passed Miami. It looks like we’re headed
for Cuba.”
Soon afterward, the pas sen-1 gers were told the plane was not headed for Cuba but was in minor trouble. Like, it couldn’t land.
“The stewardesses were running around like chickens with their heads cut off,” said Stanton, "but everyone managed to stay fairly calm. There was some weeping and a few ashen faces, but they were the exception rather than the rule.”
Passengers had to remove glasses and take all objects out of their pockets. And then they were strapped securely in their seats and told to lean forward to prevent broken necks.
WHILE the passengers were in this position, the pilot performed some intricate maneuvers in an attempt to shake the landing gear loose.
"Finally given the go-ahead, we began to make our landing,” said Stanton. “It wouldn’t have been so bad if we hadn’t seen the crash trucks waiting along the runway ”
faculty committee are formulating the plan: Dr Paul Vonk, assistant dean of the College of Arts and Sciences; Dr. James Vadakin economics; Dr. Alfred Mills, chemistry, and Drs. John McCollum and Jack Reynolds. English Also: Dr. Max Lepper, music Dr Herbert Wey, education, and John Gill, English
Tempo Editor Quits After ‘Veils’ Furor
David Foster Cupp, Tempo editor, resigned last Friday. His resignation came at the request of University President Jay F. W. Pearson following the Oct. 5 distribution of the monthly photo magazine. He was charged with “using poor taste” in the shooting of “The Dance of the Seven Veils.”
Pearson asked for Cupp’s resignation following a meeting with Wilson Hicks, director of student
publications.
Cupp, who had been given an appointment with the president last Friday, said Dr. Pearson refused to see him. The president then left town for a week of business engagements.
"I explained everything involved in David's shooting of the Seven Veils story,” said Hicks.
“and I know the president realizes	DAVID CUPP
David did it as a spoof."	Just A Spoof
"The president feels that David is not capable of handling the editorship.” said Hicks, “but he still may take pictures for University publications."
'1 think it was a case of bad timing," said Cupp. "Someone pushed the panic button ”
The “firing" ended a week of furor which started with a phony UM pin-up story in a national magazine. The Tempo article appeared two days later.
Pearson said the University would take no action against the 1 national magazine, Rogue.
Religion Groups Schedule Forum

If At First You Dont... Drop Course
As the pressures of weekly tests and 75-page reading assignments increase, a pivotal date on the student calendar approaches
The last day for dropping
classes is Oct. 30.
The procedure is:
■	Get the permission of your academic dean He will deal you two cards—one to drop and one called a “change course” card
■	Hurry to the cashier's office on the first floor of Ashe to obtain a tuition refund—if one is due.
Coeds and foreign students should take these steps cautiously, however.
• No coed may drop below 12 credits and remain a resident of the dorms. Deportation proceedings will also be begun by immigration authorities for any foreign student who is attempting less than 12 credits.
