Bulletins
The Ernest L. Stover Fund has been established by the Eastern Illinois University Foundation. The
request to establish the fund and the original contribution came from former students of Dr.
Stover, professor Emeritus and former head of the botany department. During the time the fund is
small, it will be used as a "very short term" emergency loan fund. When the fund has grown to
sufficient size, it will provide an annual scholarship of "significant" size. The Stover Fund will be
"first and primarily for the use of students specializing in botany."
A Newman Alumni group is being organized by former members of the Newman Club on East-
ern's campus. The organization will aid in the development of the Cardinal Apostolate on the
campus. Interested parties may contact Don Buscher, president pro tempore, at 1248 East Ryder
St., Litchfield, Ill.

sity. Eastern meets the Braves October 6 at Peoria. The remainder of the schedule is September
20, Illinois State at Charleston; October 13, Northern Illinois at DeKalb; October 27, Eastern
Michigan at Ypsilanti; November 3, Western Illinois at Macomb; and November 10, Central Michi-

Eastern's 1962 Homecoming is scheduled for October 19 and 20. Student chairman of the Home-
coming Committee is Gale K. Crouse, senior from Newton and vice-chairman of the 1961 Home-
coming Committee. Two reunions are being planned for the annual affair. One is the 50th anniver-
sary reunion of the Class of 1912; the second is a 30th reunion for the Class of 1932. Plans for the
latter are now in the making, with Ken Wilson, '32, of Decatur, Ill., at the helm.

ership qualities, and who has demonstrated
above-average scholastic ability.

dent for instruction; Dr. John W. Masley, ath-
letic director, Dr. William Zeigel, dean of stu-
