Davidson, head of the Music Department, and Ratcliffe, of that department's faculty, will be joined by the Cal Poly Little Sym­ phony Orchestra for the programs' finales, w. A. Mozart's "Concerto in E•flat Major for Two Pianos and Orchestra." Clifton E. Swanson, also of the Music Department faculty, will conduct the orchestra.

MEMBERS OF CAMPUS FACULTY DESIGN, EXECUTE MEDALLION, MACE FOR INAUGURATION Roger Bailey and Thomas Johnston, although not in the foreground during Wednesday (April 3) morning's inauguration program, have nevertheless made major contributions to the ceremony during which Robert E. Kennedy will be inaugurated as president of · Cal Poly. Bailey, a member of the art faculty of the Education Department, designed and executed the President's Medallion which Dr. Kennedy will receive, and Johnston, a member of the School of Architecture faculty, designed The Mace, which is the symbcl of the college's authority. Final execution of The Mace was by the School of Engi­ neering's Manufacturing Processes Department, Bailey's design of the medallion emphasizes the fact that Cal Poly is one of the California State Colleges. This relationship is shown through a combination of the Seal of the California State Colleges and the name of the college as an integral part of the design. This is a symbolic representation that within the state college sys­ tem Cal Poly is a vital and important part of the unity. The medallion is symbolic of the authority conferred upon the office of the president of the c~llege. Johnston's design for The Mace represents the eternal flame of education to which Cal Poly is dedicated, The flame is symbolized by rods which are emblematic of the schools and departments of the college, each contributing to the over-all educational and social development of the student. · · PARKING LOTS RESERVED FOR INAUGURATION GUESTS LISTED Parking Lo~s S-6 and S-7 along Grand Avenue, Lot E-5 west of the Staff Dining Room, and Lot E-6 near the Men's G1mnasium will all be reserved for parking for guests of the college who will be on campus for the inauguration of President Robert E.

' · CHARLES LUCKMAN NAMED HONORED GUEST FOR POLY ROYAL Charles Luckman, an internationally-known architect, has been named the honored griest for 36th annual Poly Royal festivities -which will take place on campus April 26-27. His acceptance of the college's invitation to participate in the traditional open house event, which is sponsored by the Associated Students, Inc., was announced by Jack W. Knoblock, who is student superintendent for the affair. "Combined with the fact that his son, James M. Luckman, is a graduate of Cal Poly and his interest in the School of Architecture, the fact that Mr. Luckman has been a member of the Board of Trustees of the California State Colleges since it was formed in 1960 makes him a fitting choice for honored guest," said KnoblC'ck. Luckman, who was named a fellow of the American Institute of Architects for his pub~ lie service activities in 1963, is expected to join a crowd numbering in excess of 60,000 for Poly Royal. The Los Angeles Architect, who recently embarked on his third "career" when he became president ·of the Ogden Development Corporation, New York City, will be specially honored. during opening ceremonies of Poly Royal the morning of April 26. He is also expe·c ted to participate in and attend various I other activities thro~ghout the two days. The 59-year-old architect began his first "career" soon after graduation from the School of Architecture of University of Illinois when he joined the Colgate­ Palmolive-Peat Company. He joined Pepsodent Company in 1935 and by 1946 had risen to the position of president of the parent Lever Brothers Company. In 1950 Luckman resigned that post and in partnership with William Pereira, formed the architectural firm of Pereira and Luckman. He purchased his partner's interest in the business in 1958 and formed Charles Luckman Associates, which he still heads. Luckman continues as head of that firm which is now one of the three largest archi­ tectural concerns in the United States. It employs several hundred planners, re­ searchers, architects, and engineers in offices located in Boston, Los Angeles, New York City, and Phoenix. - 8 - COMING EVENTS -- COMING EVENTS -· COMING EVENTS Cal Poly Women's Club, Bridge Sections-- Monday, April 1, 8:00p.m., Room 129, Dex­ ter Memorial Library.

NEW TRUSTEES Two new trustees were named by Gov. Reagan this week to succeed retiring trustees Donald M. Hart, chairman, and Gregson E. Bautzer whose terms expired March 1. The new trustees are Dudley Swim, 62, of Carmel Valley, and Karl L. Wente, 40, of Livermore. Swim is chairman of the board of National Airlines and a member of the Coordinating Council for Higher Education. Wente is president of Wente Bros. Winery and Wente Farms, Livermore. BUDGET The governor's budget proposed for the State Colleges provides for the maintenance of the existing levels of support in the next year, a restoration of essentially all the 1967~68 one-year economy program, and funding for some improvement in the student-faculty ratio and systemwide data processing. Although the budget does not contain the deep cutbacks of the previous year, it still does not provide adequate funding for much-needed improvements in the quality of our academic programs. I am deeply concerned with the prospect of the cutback in the requested salary increases and program augmentations. The support proposed for the California State College
