Union Calms Appetites Of 5,000 Every Day
Feeding many of the approximately 1,000 persons who attend any one of about 30 meetings scheduled in the Student Union on a regular weekday plus over 4,000 students who eat in the Union at sometime throughout the day is the job of the Union catering and food services.
During the regular 16-hour day at the Union, about 1,200 persons are served in the cafeteria, and about 3,000 in the Hawk's Nest for short orders and coffee, according to Bill Williams, Union catering manager.
Union facilities for serving large numbers of persons include four kitchens, the main kitchen in the cafeteria, the Hawk's Nest kitchen and two banquet areas on the upper floors of the building.
Eight University students work part time in setting up, serving and clearing tables for lunch and dinner. Thirty women from Haskell Institute work in the same capacity in the evenings and on weekends. Mr. Williams said. The staff also includes one full-time employee who oversees all work in banquet kitchens and serving areas.
Satellite To Go Up Wednesday

The United States hopes to put its own space satellite into an earth-circling orbit this week.
Launching of the first American entry in the space race probably will be Wednesday morning. It will be a six-inch test sphere with a radio transmitter but no scientific recording instruments.
In Florida, unofficial reports indicated at least four missiles, including the Vanguard satellite launcher, rocket, were being readied on the launching pads for this week.
