pared by the cafeteria under the
supervision of international stu-
dents.
The International Day will be
continuous, with something excit-
ing going on all day. The Club will
be inviting students from other
schools, such as the Austin School
for the Deaf, and also residents of
retirement homes in the area.
The idea for the event came
from the president of the club who
hopes to make it an annual affair.
The students are working very
hard on it and receiving help from
several organizations on campus.
Vida Nathan is the club’s stu-
dent senate and Student Activities
Council representative and receiv-
ed a donation of $75 from SAI.
SAC donated $600, and the Junior
Class has pledged support.
Watch for further publicity on
this event and plan to attend—you
might learn something new about
an old friend.

them all the time,” he smiled. He
seemed to control the entire board
and eventually forced the others at
his table into bankruptcy. He won
two tickets to “Tobacco Road,” a
Monopoly game and the chance to
travel to Dallas for the Regional
tournament. (Winners in Dallas
win an all-expenses paid trip to
New York and finally to Bermuda
for the Championship.)
Runner-up was Paul Beutel who
garnered a Monopoly game and
two tickets to the next theatre pro-
duction, “No Sex, Please, We’re
British,” starring his Monopoly
adversary, Noel Harrison.
There were also prizes awarded
to the separate table winners.
Carolyn Jackson, playing Monop-
oly for the first time, carried her
table. (Jackson recently appeared
in the Theatre Department’s fall
production “Born Yesterday,”
starring Broderick Crawford.) An-
gela Smith was the winner at Har-
rison’s table and could lay claim to
being the last one at that table
— forced into bankruptcy. Roger
Allen was the final winner.
To help keep up the strength of
the contestants during their strug-
gle, food and drink were suplied.
To keep things lively, Mr.
Monopoly (Will Casey) was ever-
present, assisted by two scantily-
clad Miss Monopolies (Cathy Nel-
son and Marian Albright). In case
of dispute, Mike Stuart was on
hand as Head Referee.
Coordinator for the tournament
was Bill McMillin who was disap-
pointed with the low studert turn-
out. Also discouraging v s the

idea of life in other countries.
The day will begin at 10 a.m.
with international music, a slide
presentation and movies to be
shown in the ReUnion. Tentative-
ly, there will also be informative
literature at booths in the Atrium.
International students will be en-
couraged to wear their traditional
dress all day.
At 4:30 p.m. on the Patio, a ma-
jor part of the activities will begin.
There are 217 foreign students on
campus representing 41 different
countries. These students will pre-
sent their culture in dance, music
and food. There will be a belly
dancer, Indian folk lore, a sitarist,
and a presentation from the Orien-
tal countries, to name but a few.
Some of the dancers will be semi-
professional, hired for the day. The
International Club would like the
United States to be represented by
the ballet.

“Go to jail. Do not pass go, do
not collect $200.” “Do you want
to buy that?” “You owe me $25.”
No, that’s not what you’ll find on
your parking ticket, that’s the
sounds of the First Annual Cele-
brity Monopoly Tournament,
sponsored by the Theatre Depart-
ment in conjunction with Parker
Brothers.
The first night was student com-
petition only, and though the turn-
out was small, a truly “great time
was had by all.” The big winner of
the night was Angie Oviedo, a
sophomore and theatre major. In
second and third place were Deb-
bie Gaughan and Mary Scheitin-
ger. These three contestants were
then eligible to compete the next
afternoon against local celebrities.
Among the celebrities were Disc
Jockey Bill Davis, who taped a
portion of his game for radio sta-
tion KASE; Bea Day, former man-
ager of the Country Dinner Play-
house, Caroline Jackson from
KTVV-KLBJ; Sandy Cannon from
KTBC (Channel 7) who brought
her cameraman Marty Manning,
famous for his association with
K-98 Radio; Roger Allen from
KCSW; and Paul Beutel, formerly
amusement writer for the Austin-
American Statesman, now editor
of Arts and Liesure Magazine.
Also present at the tournament
were John Carradine, star of the
current production at the Mary
Moody Northen Theatre, “To-
bacco Road,” and Noel Harrison,
currently in residence at the theatre
and director of “Tobacco Road.”
The big winner of the day was
Noel Harrison who confessed to
winning at Monopoly before. “I
used to play with some guys on
Wall Street in London and beat

go into the annals as the most
exhilirating program ever to be
witnessed on campus,” believes
Manohar (Mano) Lakshman, pres-
ident of the International Club.
The purpose of the day is for
West to meet East, to “unify the
Parts.” “The picture most Amer-
icans have of different countries
is vague. We need to know more
about America, too. We hope this
will promote friendship,” says
Mano.
Husni Mughrabe, a student
from Jordan, says he sees this
International Day as a good idea
because most Americans misunder-
stand foreign cultures. For exam-
ple, “They think we still ride
camels and live in tents. We have
all the technology that you have in
the West.” Americans will have
