No intellectual activity is necessary to follow the parade of daring episodes in "The Big Circus," Allied Artists' extravaganza under the Big Top, in cinemascope and technicolor.
Friday, Oct. 16, 1959 University Daily Kansai
If you're in need of mental relaxation, drop by the Varsity Theatre this weekend.
It may keep you on the edge of your seat—if you're a 6-year-old. Otherwise it will provide numerous hearty laughs and should relax you sufficiently to face the classroom grind on Monday.
The bank sends along Red Buttons to keep an eye on its money, and Rhonda Fleming to handle publicity for the show. Both are soon under the spell of the Big Top and ultimately marry into the game.
Kathryn Grant, the owner's demure little sister who acts as secretary for the circus, secretly practices a trapeze act, and dramatically steps into the spotlight in one of the film's many crises.
Everyone in the movie is enchanted with the glamorous and exciting life of the circus. The circus crowd even drags in outsiders, who also inevitably become enchanted.
Victor Mature is the owner of the show. He borrows money from a bank to make a sweeping tour of the country and put the faltering circus back on its feet.
Gilbert Roland and David Nelson, members of the aerialist team, Peter Lorre, the clown, and Vincent Price, the ringmaster, are right in the thick of the danger and intrigue.
A rash of disasters strikes the valiant crew as they struggle to make a profit on their cross-country tour. A lion breaks loose, fire in the hay threatens the Big Top, a train wreck and widespread floods delay their travel, and finally, a subway strike in New York City makes it impossible for the patrons to come to the show.
As if this isn't enough, viewers must swallow a dramatic tightwire walk across Niagara Falls as Roland tries to regain his courage and confidence, lost in the train wreck which claimed his wife.
Does he make it across? Do the loyal circus hands get paid at the end of the tour? Does the lovely Miss Fleming patch up her quarrel with the handsome circus owner? Is the outbreak of "accidents" halted by the death of the saboteur?
Don't ask me. I'll never tell.
Go see for yourself. You'll get needed relief from your Do-Doz nerves, and a bit of relaxing laughter will do you good.

United States May Orbit Mannequin in Capsule

Remains of Secret Weapon Lost in Southwest Kentucky
HARDINSBURG, Ky. — (UPI) — Air Force recovery crews searched southwest Kentucky today for the remains of a top-secret nuclear weapon loosed in the sky collision of a B-52 jet bomber and its refueling tanker last night.
ALBUQUERQUE — (UPI) America may orbit a plastic man in advance of the Mercury astronaut to test the amount of radiation the human space pioneer must encounter, it was revealed here today.
Somewhere in the lonely countryside lay the remains of the bomb. Presumably clad in protective clothing against stray radioactivity, disaster crews were at work seeking it in the scattered wreckage of the two planes.
At least three airmen died in the bomber's flaming collision with a fuel-filled KC-135 tanker. Seven more were missing. Four survivors had been found, injured.
The Air Force said the bomb carried by the Mississippi-based B-52 did not explode, and could not.
The giant eight-jet Stratofortress and its KC-135 jet tank, both from the Strategic Air Command Base at Columbus, Miss., collided while refueling over north central Kentucky at 6:45 (Lawrence time) last night, with an explosion that was seen for more than 100 miles in all directions.
The Air Force said that in spite of the tremendous flash which lit the sky, there was no nuclear explosion and that there was no danger of one.
The planes fell about four miles apart in low wooded hill country of the Rough River Dam area about 20 miles south of here, some 75 miles southwest of Louisville.
Construction Bid Accepted
Construction plans for the $250,255 KU Center for research in engineering science went into full swing Tuesday as the B. A. Green Construction Co. of Lawrence submitted the lowest bid to the Endowment Association.
The bid will be presented to the center's board of directors.
The center, announced last June by Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy in a commencement address, will be entirely financed by funds from the Solon E. Summerfield Foundation through the KU Endowment Association.
The building will be constructed on a 13,000 square foot plot west of Lawrence.
The research project will start
Baptist College Rejects Aid
PLAINVIEW, Tex. — (UPI) — A small West Texas Baptist College has rejected a $688,000 federal loan on the grounds that acceptance would violate the principle of separation of church and state.
"I regard this as a basic matter," Dr. A. Hope Owen, president of Wayland Baptist College, told his trustees. "We depend upon God instead of the government."
The United States spent 215 million dollars on public education in 1900, compared with the 14 billion dollars being spent this year.
with a $50,000 annual budget. Within five years it is expected to grow into nearly a half million dollar institution and maintain a staff of eight to ten senior researchers, plus about 30 research associates and post-doctoral workers.
CBS TV Cancels Mae West Interview
Dean John S. McNown of the School of Engineering and Architecture will serve as director of the center.
NEW YORK — (UPI) The "Person-to-Person" television program has cancelled tonight's scheduled appearance of busty Mae West.
The Columbia Broadcasting System, in announcing the cancellation yesterday, said, "It was felt that certain portions of the interview with Miss West, 66, might be misconstrued."
"Maybe it was too good, I was very honest," Miss West said in San Francisco.

The mannequin would be filled with tissue-equivalent fluid that would absorb as much radiation as a human body. The disclosure was made by Lt. Col. S. E. Lifton, deputy chief of biophysics at Kirtland Air Force Base here.
Four members of the bomber crew were picked up alive and apparently not seriously injured shortly after the crash. They were taken to an Army hospital at Ft. Knox, 30 miles east. No interviews with them were permitted.
At least three charred bodies of crewmen have been found, one of them identified at the Columbus base as S/Sgt. Paul E. Thomasson., 27, Lancaster, S.C., tailboom operator on the tanker.
Seven crewmen, apparently including the two unidentified dead, were listed as "missing."
Although Air Force officials stated there was no danger of an atomic explosion from the weapon carried by the bomber, it was obvious that a nuclear warhead containing radioactive material lay somewhere in the area and could be dangerous to any unauthorized persons who might come across it.
