Two KU Students To Appear In Movie
When the cameras begin to roll on the premier showing of "Cool and the Crazy," a United Artists release, Paul Culp, Kansas City, Mo. senior, and Kenneth Plumb, Sunflower graduate student, will make their screen debuts.
These two University students spent most of the month of April on location in Kansas City filming the movie which will be released in early June. They were picked for the cast from auditions. The movie is from the story by Dick Sarafin about teenagers and dope.
The greatest thrill of the experience, the boys agreed, was working with Hollywood professionals such as director Bill Whitney. Mr. Whitney has directed many pictures for Republic Pictures.
"Much of the fun of working under the bright lights was lost when the working day ran until 4 a.m.",
Culp said. "We would shoot a 'take' for about ten minutes and then sit around for 30 while the lighting was changed and everything rearranged to achieve the right effect."
The movie stars Gigi Perreau in the feminine lead, Scott Marlowe, Richard Bakalyn, and Dick Jones.
Both Plumb and Culp have been active in the University Theatre and Studio Theater productions.
"All in all the work was more of a strain and I rather missed the excitement of a stage show," Culp said. "Movies are, however, a more perfect way of doing a play. In the end it will be technically better than a stage play."
Plumb said that he had learned more about acting and its technical phases than he had ever learned in class.
"You can't beat experience for learning," he said. "And contrary
to the way magazines seem to stereotype Hollywood people, they were wonderful to work with."

Scientist Suspects Satellite Now Aloft
Sunday night, at least five months before U. S. scientists have said they would be able to launch an artificial satellite, the director of the "moonwatch" program in Indianapolis, Ind., Dr. William Garnatz, said he "is suspicious that there is now an artificial satellite in the sky."
An Associated Press report gave no details as to why Dr. Garnatz, who is in charge of a team of amateur astronomers in Indianapolis, suspected that an artificial satellite had been launched. The "moon-watch" team would be responsible for watching a certain section of the sky in the event a satellite was launched by the U.S.
Dr. Garnatz said chances are there are no satellites in operation yet. But he said due to international rivalry there is a possibility.
"If I had to make a.g. guess, I'd say the chances are 60 to 40 that there is none," Dr. Garnatz said.
Dr. Garnatz, an industrial plant mechanical engineer, said 10 or 11 telescopes will be trained on the skies in the local test Friday from a point south of Indianapolis. The test is to determine whether any man-made satellites are already circling the earth.
Connected With IGY
The American satellite program, which is connected with the International Geophysical Year, has scheduled a launching of an artificial satellite sometime this fall.
The directors of the program are Dr. Frederick Whippe and Dr. J. Allen Hynek, both associated with the Smithsonian Astrophysical Institute at Harvard University, Cambridge, Mass.
Dr. Hynek, who is in charge of the satellite tracking program, spoke at the University October 26-27 at the Math-Science Dav.
When he was at the University Dr. Hynek said that the U.S. was not the only country trying to send an artificial satellite aloft. Russia is also pushing the project.
"The satellite we see may not be our own," he said at that time.
However, according to N. W. Storer, associate professor of astronomy at the University, "how would Garnatz know a satellite is aloft and if he did see something how does he know it's artificial?"
Dr. Storer explained that the proposed U. S. satellite is only 20 inches in diameter and would reach an altitude of about 300 miles.

Campus Briefs
"It would just be a point of moving light in the sky," he said.
It seems highly improbable that anyone accidentally saw a satellite in the air. Two hundred "moonwatch" teams will be set up over the U.S. to track the satellite. These teams are made up of amateurs with small telescopes. Each team is responsible for watching a certain section of the sky and from reports of these teams scientists plan to determine the orbit of the artificial satellite once it has been launched.
Dr. Storer said that he knew the Soviets were working on a satellite and that American scientists have been having a great deal of difficulty with the U. S. satellite.

Retired Copper Magnate Dies
NEW YORK — (UP — Cornelius Francis Kelley, 82, retired chairman of the board of the Anaconda Co. and a leading figure in the copper industry for nearly half a century, died Sunday at the Columbia Medical Center following an operation.
Under his leadership the company expanded from a Montana copper mining company to an organization operating throughout the Western Hemisphere and producing many other metals.
Fulkerson Jr., Muskogee, Okla., also was under questioning in connection with a series of fires that appeared to have been set on the campus of the Parkville, Mo., college last week.
A Parkville fireman identified Fulkerson as the youth he saw throw a dust mop saturated with flamable fluid into a trash barrel only minutes before a fire broke out in a quonset hut about 200 feet away.
The poisoning incident took place about three days after the series of fires. Officers said Fulkerson denied knowledge of any of the incidents.
