Other com mittee members are John Olin and Frank Murray, a golf course architect.

Esther opened by pointing out that Boca Raton has grown from a population of in ivm tn 15.100 1964, With a lf.UW estimate for 1966. not counting winter visitors. A municipal golf course, he said, Is the only thing lacking to round out the local recreational picture.

Defense counsel John Thabes of Fort Lauderdale put Dr. John R.

Steele, of Lauderdale-by-the-Sea. on the stand. Dr. Steele testified he had prescribed the pills for Ferris about a month previous, and had cautioned him In their use. Taken with alcohol, the doctor said, there was no telling what might happen.

BOCA RATON Approval of a master of education program at Florida Atlantic University by the Board of Regents Mon day was announced Tuesday by FAU president, Dr. Kenneth R. Williams. Authority was granted for both on-campus and off-campus courses in four areas of profes sional education leading to a master's degree. It Is expected, Dr.

Williams said, that about 100 students will enroll for full time courses on campus, and another 1,500 for Individual courses. "This authority to expand our program was given in recogni tion of the greut need for gra duate teacher education In this part of the state, and of the excellence of our faculty," Dr. Williams said. This Is FAU's first fully ap proved post graduate course. Master's degree will be offered in the areas of administration and supervision, curriculum and instruction, guidance and human behavior.

During the past year the university gave Instruction to more than 1,400 teachers under the former FICUS program. It is expected that from 30 to 50 teacher students from this group will be given master's degrees In December, at the mnnlucinn nf fVlA fall trimes- er The action by the regents makes FAU a three-year Institution, Dr. Palmer C. Pllcher, dean of academic affairs, explained. The Institution started with junior and senior college years, and the award of bachelor degrees.

It Is expected, he said, that the majority of master's candidates will come from Junior college graduates who have elected to work for their bachelor degrees at FAU. Now, with an extra year's work, they will be able to start their teaching ca reers with a master degree and a class 2 rating, in a proportionate by higher salary bracket. Dean G. Ballaid Simmons of the College of Education said that his faculty would comprise 23 per cent of the total for the university by September, while 1,396 education undergraduates account for 47 per cent of the university's enrollment. The field of education was the first to be picked for a master's program because of public need, Dr.

Williams explained. Approximately one third of the teachers In Florida live and work In the Dade-Browarri-Palm Beach Countv area, which has never had a state-supported graduate level program in education. Simmons said a survey showed that if graduate courses leadincr to a degree were offered at F.MJ. 1.000 teachers In Broward. in Pa'm Bench and 600 In Dade Counties would be Interested In enrolling.
