named to replace L.A. "Bud”
Mangels, assistant dean of men,
who resigned from the University
staff to accept a position 11s a
director of the student union of
Kent State University, Kent,
Ohio.
Dean of Students, Donald M,.
DuShane told the Kmerald Wed
nesday "there will be a news re
lease on the situation sometime
next week.”
Mangels said Tuesday, "With
out reservation, I have enjoyed
the time I have spent here at
the University as well as the as
sociations I had with those peo
ple with whom I worked.”
He said, “This is a rather fan
tastic opportunity. It is a situ
ation similar to the one I stepped
info here at the University. A
new job is being created.
“I’ve always been interested in
Student Union work . . . Kent'
is a growing institution, a bit
larger than the University of
Oregon," he added.
He also said that much of his
family is located in the Midwest.
Finally he said, “The opera
tion there is completely differ
rent from that of the Student j
Union here. The facilities are all
new. There are six activity cen
ters instead of a single build
ing. I like this idea, and this
helped entice me to take the
job.”
Mangels has been at the Uni
versity for over two years.

The "King of the World" plans
to crown himself “King of the
| University of Oregon . . . for
i Good” at 4 p.m. today. He has
I lot yet specified where the coro
} nation will occur.
IIOMEK A. TOMLINSON, 68
•ear-old head of a religious or
ganization called the "Churches
}f God.” will arrive via Grey
hound bus, and will carry his
own portable throne, pne gold
ind one silver crown, a $600
royal robe, and an umbrella.
An unsuccessful U.S. Presiden
tial candidate, Tomlinson is a
nrofessional self-crowner who
has dubbed himself king of 101
'ountries. all 50 stales, 187 city
halls, and 42 universities.
BROTHER HOMER, as he is
known to his constituents, will
announce the place of his corona
tion when he reaches the main
doors of the Student Union,
around 3:30 p.m. He also in
formed the Emerald that he will
hold a press conference in the
Emerald office at 2 p.m. Emerald
Editor Dan Pfaff said no plans
have been made for a press con
ference.
Tomlinson will ask for two
student volunteers, one to be a
, "prince,” and the other to be a
! "princess,” to help organize what
he calls a "Theocratic Band." The
band’s main task will be to con
j duct a "School for Kings" for stu
j dents to he "raised to the pur
j pie.-’ These students will be "fully
: prepared to become rulers of
nations, to administer peace,” ac
| cording to his newspaper The
Church of God.
HE WAS TO have visited Gon
zaga University Wednesday.

3.000.000 votes in the 1960 presi

new construction and 5,600 square
feet of alterations.
PRESENT DINING space and
meeting rooms available for cafe
teria luncheon meetings will be
more than doubled. Seating ca
pacity for the soda bar-grill op
eration will be increased by about
one half.
The bowling alley area in the
basement will be doubled, and a
barbershop location of more con
venience and economy provided.
Sales space for the SU main
desk will be expanded.
Crowded conditions in the Erb
Memorial Union have resulted
from increasing student enroll
ments in the past few years.
The new addition will alleviate
some crowding, but "even with
the increase in space, we still
will be about two years behind in
space and facilities,” EUingson
estimated.
THE $685,000 addition is a self
liquidating project not involving
tax funds. Preliminary planning
for it was started in 1957.
L*>ng-range plans are being
I made for a second addition, but
! nothing is on the drawing beard
| yet, the SU director said.
AMONG FACILITIES to be
included on the f.rst floor of the
new addition arc a snack bar
dining area to se-ve 140-190 per
sons; and a combination dining
room for 180. banquet room for
about 250, which can be converted
into an assembly room seating
400 or more.
The first floor also will have
seven meeting looms each ac
commodating about 2* persons
and two larger meeting rooms for
around 35 each.
IN THE BASEMENT, plans
cal! for eight bowling lanes, two
meeting rooms, a combo practice
room, a sports repair and rental
shop, and the birbershop area.
SU game area Board problem
Use of the games area of the
student Union may be restricted
| to certain groups on nights des
;gnated by the Games Committee
is a result of action taken by
the SU Board Tuesday.
UNLESS REGULATIONS of
another, committee or board are
nvolved. the Games Committee
nan set aside the area for use
by a special group, such as mar
ried students, or can limit the
use of the area to college stu
i dents.
wnen tne motion was present
' ed at the last meeting, Oct. 11, it
I was suggested that frequent use
' of the area by high school stu
. lents might account for the limit
ed participation by University
| students.
KILL DAVIS offered a substi
tute motion for the one presented
I by Dan Williams Oct. 11. which
; required consideration of the SU
Board in restricting use of the
game area. The motion passed
unanimously.
A change in SU Board policy
decided the question summarized
by Dean Donald DuShane. "Do we
j want to co-sponsor events if the
sole purpose is to raise money for
the organization's treasury?" j
A DETAILED plan presented
by Bob Forsyth, giving restric-j
tions if the group wants the SI’
Board to share in the financial
responsibility of the event, will
be filed for reference.
As it now stands, a campus
Organization may request the SU
Board to co-sponsor an event. If
pproved. the group may go ahead
independently with its program,
accepting profits and assuming
responsibility for losses.
WITH APPROVAL of the
Board, other arrangements can
be made so that the Board will
absorb an agreed percentage of
the losses or receive a percen
tage of the net income from the
function.
Prices for the Cal Tjadar Quin
tet and the George Shearing and
Four Freshmen programs were
announced by Mary Alden. "T jazz
by T.iader," Nov. 3, 7:30 p.m. in
MacArthur Court, will be $1.25,
students; $1.75, adults; $2.50, re
served.
Prices for the Four Fresh
men program, to be held in the
SU ballroom Frb. 24, are SI,
student; SI.50, adults; S2.50 re
served.
Air Force Band performance,
she reported, cost S2000 plus $400
for promotion and physical ex
penses. About $1900 was received,
ind the $500 loss has been under
written by the Budget Board.
Jay Jackson, SU Board chair
man. said the Iocs was expected
and may be cancelled out by prof
its from other events.
International Friendship Union
chairman is Bill Freck, junior in
business administration, Jackson
announced.
nave Hill reported that there
will be a Fr;day at Four. Nov.
10 in the SU Fishbowl. He will
talk to freshmen interested in
working on SU committees Nov.
13.
Si Ellingson, SU director, ex
plained the standing policy that,
because of added custodial cost,
no food other than sack lunches
may be brought into the build
ing. He said that groups wishing
to bring their own refreshments
can request the use of Gerlinger
Hall.
