'Ark' Sails In Over Boondocks Billy
We Live in the Present,
By the Past, but
for the. .
Dance Set
Tonight
Well, that's show biz.
Pop singer Billy Joe Royal,
apparently marching to the sound
of more profitable drums, backed
out on a planned concert Friday
night at FTU.
Big name entertainers have
broken contracts before, but it was
Royal's timing that had FTU
Village Center officials singing the
blues this week.
F very thing for Royal's
appearance here had been set some
time ago. There had been a verbal
agreement between the VC and
Royal's managers to have the singer
of "Down in the Boondocks" fame
appear here Friday night.
VC Director Ken Lawson called
Royal's people earlier this week to
ask if there was anything the
university could do to welcome the
singer.
"What concert?" was the
response that greeted Lawson.
Lawson tried to make the
manager remember Royal's FTU
verbal obligation, but was told that
Royal had a new hit record
out—the first in some time—and
decided he could push it better in a
Boston engagement.
When the word of the
cancellation hit the campus
Thursday, signs suddenly appeared
stating "Billy Joe can stay in the
boondocks," "We can do better,"
"Billy Joe ratted out" and "May he
get lost in Cherry Hill Park." :
"Cherry Hill Park" is Royal's
newest release.

Tech Tangles Tonight
FTU's first game of the season is
tonight at Massey Institute in
Jacksonville with the first home
game tomorrow night against the
University of Palm Beach. All home
games will be played at the new
Winter Park High School
gymnasium in Winter Park. Game
time is 8:00 p.m.
"Our main objective this season is
to get the team to play as a unit and
learn to work together." These are
the words of Coach Gene Clark as
he embarks on his first season as
the FTU head mentor after a highly
successful high school coaching
career. "The biggest problem this
year is that these boys don't know
my personality and expectations
and I don't know theirs," related
Clark. "But I'm sure this will
improve as the season progresses."
The team has already had two
scrimmages against outside

The blood bank was at FTU
Wednesday for the last visit in this
series. There was no collection of
blood last week as the decreasing
turnout made the blood bank's
FTU visit less profitable than
collecting blood elsewhere.

American Dream
Seminar Offered
The FTU English Department
will offer an undergraduate seminar
on the literature of the American

which the theme has been treated
by various authors.
The seminar will be led by Dr.
Richard Adicks and will center
upon works by Albee, Ellison,
Faulkner and Fitzgerald, with
additional reading of books and
poems by other American authors.
Enrollment in the American
