There will even be a professional touch about it.
In what is expected to lure the
largest crowd in the long and colorful series of traditional Men's
Union All-Sports Night celebrations, this Spring's program will
resemble a who's who of professional football.
Included will be former Chippewa all-sports great Jim Podoley, who starred with the Washington Redskins last Fall and Joe
Kuharich, the celebrated head
coach of the Redskins.
Several players and team officials of the World Champion Detroit Lions will also join in the
night's festivities.
The big event is set for
Wednesday, May 14 in the CMC
Fieldhouse.
And to boot this Spring's gala
celebration will be free of charge
to all male CMC students with a
chicken dinner and all the trimmings donated by the Union
Board.
The special salute to Central's
graduating letterwinners will get
underway at 5:30 p.m. and the
evening will be capped by an all-
college dance in the Fieldhouse
Gym starting at 9:15 with late
permissions granted to all dates.
Also on the entertainment
billing for the evening are
musical selections by Valerie
Strong, Miss Michigan; the
CMC Concert Band, the CMC
Men's Glee Club and the Beavers, a group which features specialty numbers.
Union Board officials promise
a minimum of speech making
with Kuharich, the 1955 pro coach
of the year, delivering the main
address.
The  rest  of  the pro football
standouts will form a panel and
will discuss questions from the
crowd.

Central to Get
Budget Cutback
Central will be operating on
less money next year tha&i it was
granted for this year President
Anspach revealed at a faculty
meeting Monday afternoon.
The present operating budget is
$2,872,000, but for next year the
legislature cut the college back
and one half percent or $67,000.
"Part of this deficit," President
Anspach said, "will be offset because the legislature is allowing
us to keep our unexpended balance from this year which will
amount to approximately $20,000
making our new budget
$2,825,000." This is the first time
Central has been able to keep its
unexpended balance.
Dr. Anspach said the cutback
will be felt most where equipment and supplies are concerned.
