These great silent classics will be coupled with Marcel Marceau, the internationally famous pantomimist performing in Gogol's "The Overcoat." With his company of mimists Marcel Marceau has created a pantomime-ballet which achieves great poignancy and satirical humor as it tells the story of the poor clerk who saves and scrapes to get an overcoat, revealing Marceau's genius for stylized rhythmic movement.

Louis Armstrong Is Gravely III in Italy
SPOLETO, Italy —(UPI) — Louis (Satchmo) Armstrong lav in a comtodav in "grave" condition with bronchial pneumonia complicated by heart trouble.
The famous American Negro jazz musician passed into unconsciousness after suffering a second relapse this morning.
Doctors kept him in an oxygenter most of the time, and his breathing was reported to be labored.
That statement came from Dr Vernon Wilson, acting dean of the University's Medical School and acting director of the center at Kansas City when he and State Budget Director James W. Bibb appeared before the State Board of Regents in a special meeting.
Reason for the meeting was a matter of $196,929 which the Medical Center said it has exceeded in budgeted spending for the current fiscal year.
The center Tuesday asked the State Finance Council to authorize the $196,929 for the remainder of the fiscal year, which ends in five days.
The center and the regents asked the State Finance Council Tuesday to permit the use of a $252,000 balance in a restricted fees fund to tide it over until new budgeted funds become available July 1.
Wilson said the biggest reason for exceeding the budget was a greatly increased number of heart operation performed at the medical center.
The seven-man board of regents Wednesday went over the reasons why the request for extra money was made and how to prevent overspending in the future.
Gov. George Docking suggested hat the regents meet.
The governor said before leaving for Chicago to attend an Eisenhower library fund-raising meeting that he will call the finance council together shortly after his return to Toneka today.
He said, however, he wanted assurance from the regents that tighter control would be exerted over the Medical Center budget in the future.
The regents approved a resolution calling on Bibb to help the center work out its future budget problems and for Clement Hall, regents chairman, to appoint a two-man committee of regents to work with Bibb and center officials.
Bibb said his agency will provide a management analysis of the center. He also suggested the center should make a quarterly review of its budget so he can report to the regents.
Wilson asserted that "over-expenditures will not recur."
Murphy Warns Of U.S.Education Complacency
Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy said Wednesday night if we do not come to grips with the intellectual development of our children, we will become a nation of uneducated, highly-skilled technicians.
"It is unfortunately true that too large a percentage of our fellow citizens still sit in naive and dangerous complacency," Dr. Murphy said. The chancellor spoke at the second general session of the Teachers Education and Professional Standard Conference (TEPS).
The conference opened with the 1,085 educators attending a dinner and first general session Tuesday night. The following morning the educators met in various study groups to discuss an overall collegiate curriculum for teachers.
Attending the conference are: 191 representatives of liberal arts, 258 teacher education specialists, 303 classroom teachers, 124 educational administrators, 55 representatives of state educational associations, 58 representatives of state departments of education, 84 future teachers, and 12 representatives of such groups as the PTA and school boards.
Chancellor Murphy said it is time to re-examine our educational needs and to gear them to the 20th century.
"By any measure these are revolutionary times and must be met with imaginative and vigorous action," the chancellor added.
Chancellor Murphy said that those who would respond on the crucial educational front identify two basic questions.
"I get the impression that large numbers of the people in education are eager to get financial support from the state or national government, yet I do not find equal interest on the question of standards of performance." he said.
1. Will the people provide the money, material and moral support necessary for the type of education we need, rather than the one we can afford?
2. Society asks education in turn, whether or not they have the curriculum patterns and philosophies geared to the realities of today and tomorrow, rather than to those of a generation past?
In reference to the last question, Chancellor Murphy asked if it were proper to ignore demands of citizens who ask national minimal standards of academic performance.
Chancellor Murphy said educators must demand, not ask, all that is necessary to permit them to prepare our children for what he termed "the battle for its (the nation) survival."
"But above everything else, you and I have the responsibility and imagination to create and implement programs and educational points of view deserving of this support which we request.
