"I hate speech"
Actor's son film shy
Like many KU freshmen, Mike Nagel has chosen not to follow in the footsteps of his father.
Few of the students on Nagel's floor in Ellsworth Hall or in his classes realize that his father is Conrad Nagel of silent film fame and founder of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and honorary life member of the organization.
Currently his father is doing a television program out of New York titled "Stage '67."
NAGEL SAID he likes to think of his background due to his father's fame as nothing unusual.
Mike is majoring in mammalogy and lists speech as his most hated subject at KU.
The New York City, N.Y., freshman chose to come to KU because of the reputation the school has earned in the field of mammalogy. Nagel says it is the second-best school in the country for this field.
This is the first time Nagel has gone away to school as such. The prep school which he attended, Collegiate, was in Manhattan and was only a day school.
BE IS AN enthusiastic proponent of KU and said, "I think it is great, much better than anything else I could have found."
He describes the KU atmosphere as "less tense and more relaxed than that of New York with friendlier people."
"Without my father I wouldn't have had any idea what acting was like. I think this is the only
NAGEL SAW KU for the first time when he like other freshmen came to the campus for previews. He agrees with the stereotype of the midwesterner as easy-going with no troubles.
Nagel said his father has visited him at KU a couple of times since September.
"Shopkeepers don't try to push their products very much," he said.
"There are more things to do in New York than there are here but I can be satisfied here," he said.
"Right now I miss not being able to go around to different areas. Here you need a car and this is unheard of in New York." he said.
advantage I have had unless you want to say that meeting people is an advantage," Nagel said.
NAGEL'S FAVORITE activities are camping and trapping. He became interested in these areas when visiting a place in Vermont which his aunt owns.
One of his favorite courses at KU this semester is zoology. He is especially interested in the term project for the course which will involve trapping.
in animals and aided his decision to major in the field.
Nagel describes his father as reserved and says he has no favorite role or characterization for him. Nagel feels that this is one thing which aided his father in his career.
Conrad Nagel is best known for his roles in "The Kiss" with Greta Garbo and "The Divorcee" with Norma Shearer.
Nagel has worked for four years in the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. His work there in the Mammalogy department sparked an already well-developed interest
Nagel has lived with his mother, Canadian-born Michael Nagel, since his parents were divorced in 1958. He has maintained a close relationship with his father as all three members of the family reside in New York City, N.Y.
NEEDS NO TELESCOPE
WAILUKU, Maui, Hawaii — (UPI)—Astronomer Chester Dilly went to the top of 10,000-foot Mount Haleakala early Wednesday to observe the leonid meteor shower—and got a much closer look than he desired.
An object, believed to be a small meteorite from the fiery display, smashed into the concrete block observatory beside which Dilly was standing.
Other scientists have joined Dilly in a search, so far unsuccessful, for minute particles of the object.
