Landauer '23 of New York, president of the 1965 Alumni Council; Morrison G. Tucker '32, Oklahoma City, president of the 1966 Alumni Council; Professor Smallwood; President Dickey, and Nichol M. Sandoe Jr., '45 of Hanover, director of the Office of Public Programs, who will be the committee's executive secretary. Later members will include the Alumni Council presidents through 1970.

Professor Smallwood's Faculty and Staff Planning Committee includes Jere R. Daniell II '55, Assistant Professor of History; Albert I. Dickerson '30, Dean of Freshmen; Edward C.
