The university's primary roles of education, re~earch and service are largely focused on this area, affording op­ portunities for thousands of students of all ages to advance academically, contributing to the increase of knowledge, and providing a wide variety of community services, rang­ ing from the upgrading of elementary education to the delivery of health services. The university's programs and its calendar of events cover almost every aspect of life and make possible fre­ quent interaction between the unive rsity family and its neighbors. This gathering tonight is but one manifestation of this, offering not only recreation for thousands of persons but also a chance for visitors to see the obvious signs of Tulane's progress and to exchange views with students, faculty and staff about the university's mission and its impact on the community. Athletic events bring visitors to the campus throughout the year. And there are many other occasions. Stage performances, concerts, lectures. And, also, throughout the year, conferences, seminars and major conventions of scientific, professiona l and busi­ ness organiza tions which attract to the campus not only persons from this area but visitors from many distant points. Tulane, in fact, has become a core of many com­ munity interests-in art and the perfo rming arts, in health and medicine, in science, law, engineering, architecture, business and education, to name but a few. For whatever stimulus it does provide, Tulane is re­ warded amply through the stimulation it, in turn, receives from the participation in its activities of so many from outside the university. For the public's participation in all of these functions provide the leavening ingredient needed to enable Tulane to continue to improve in the accomplishment of its missions.

Curci led the 1959 Hurricanes to a 26-7 win over the Green Wave. Building his team around 31 returning letter­ men, Curci has already matched last year's victory total for the Spartans. Tampa was 2-7 in 1967. Tampa is led by quarterback Del Gaizo, full­ back Monk Coleman, and running back Leon McQuay. Del Gaizo and Coleman hooked up for six complete passes for 87 yards and two touch­ downs at Santa Barbara. The Spartans upended Santa Barbara after the Californians had battled perenially-tough Texas -- El Paso to a 14-14 tie a week earlier.
