Soviet television snubs Khrushchev
MOSCOW —(UPI)— If Nikita S. Khrushchev had anything to do with the Soviet Union in 1957, Moscow television doesn't know about it.
For the second night in a row a television broadcast reviewing the years in which Khrushchev ruled Russia avoided any mention of the deposed former premier and Communist party leader.
Taxes-
Continued from page 1
Continued from page I has been held in an impounded fund until the case is decided, said Edythe Norman, Douglas County treasurer.
The amount of personal tax money that would be lost per year by the county if the Greeks win the suit has not been determined. There are 40 fraternities and sororites at KU and the amount of personal property tax protested by 15 amounted to about $5,000 a year.
A number of suits have been filed by the 15 KU fraternities and sororities, said Fred Six, a Lawrence lawyer representing the organizations.
KU fraternities and sororites appealed to the State Board of Tax Appeals but their request for a personal tax exemption was denied June 22, 1966.
No matter how Judge Gray rules the issue may have to be decided by the Kansas Supreme Court if the decision is appealed.
Named as defendants in the action are the State Board of Tax Appeals, the Douglas County Board of Commissioners, the Douglas County Treasurer, the City of Lawrence, and the Board of Education of School District 497.
Sunday night's program covered 1957.
The exact number of KU Greek organizations involved in the suit was not available at the District Court clerk's office. Fourteen who have paid personal property tax under protest are Kappa Kappa Gamma, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Sigma Chi, Alpha Phi, Phi Kappa Psi, Alpha Omicron Pi, Acacia, Kappa Alpha Theta, Tau Kappa Epsilon, Gamma Phi Beta, Phi Delta Theta, Alpha KappaLambda, Phi Gamma Delta, and Sigma Nu.
It was 1957 in which Khrushchev solidified his control over the Soviet Union and the Communist party.
Last 2 Days!
"Grand Prix"
Show at 8:00 p.m. only
A program Saturday night on the year 1956 declined to mention Khrushchev's famous speech in which he denounced his predecessor Josef Stalin and started the Kremlin's still-continuing destabilization Program.
Wednesday "THE AMBUSHERS"
Sunday's program was the latest in a series of documentaries on each year since the 1917 revolution. The stories of the first five years of Khrushchev's rule made it clear that Moscow television intends to tell about his era without once mentioning him.
The main event shown Sunday was the world Communist summit in Moscow. Khrushchev was the host, but the only prominent Soviets shown on television were the present leaders Leonid I. Brezhnev and Alexei N. Kosygin—then relatively low-ranking—and ex-president Klimient Vorshilov
"REFLECTIONS IN A GOLDEN EYE"
Show Times 2:30 - 7:15 - 9:15
Some sharp-eyed viewers thought they caught a glimpse of Khrushchev in profile in one scene, but this could not be confirmed.
Wednesday!
"I, A WOMAN"
Since his ouster in 1644, Khrushchev has not been cited by name by the Soviet press, television or present leaders.
Talented television producers and editors, who foresaw these problems, refused to work on the program, sources said. The result has been a pastiche of film clips whose quality ranked only slightly higher than their historical accuracy.
Buses—
Continued from page 1 from 10 to 15 cents "a couple of years ago."
The cost of buses is a major factor in the fare raise.
"Buses are up $1,000 this year," Ogle said, "but there is no anticipated raise in fares as of now."
"This is a volume business, and if we can haul enough people, we won't have to raise the fares," he said.
Some students complained about the 25-cent fare they must pay to go downtown.
"When you leave the campus," Ogle said referring to the quarter fare, "You have to pay the same as anyone else."
Bus driver Tom Scanlon, Wichita law student, said he has a complaint about the way some passengers treat the drivers.
"We have tried to schedule buses according to students' needs," Scanlon said, but some of our riders don't appreciate this fact.
Weekend thefts net bicycle, tape player
Two thefts of property valued at a total of $170 were reported to Campus police over the weekend.
Michael Blau, Overland Park freshman, reported the theft of a tape player from his car parked in A zone sometime between 10 p.m. Sunday and 4 a.m. Monday. The player is valued at $130.
Elau said another one had been stolen from his car Dec. 15.
A black bicycle valued at $40 belonging to Michael A. Gordon, Kansas City, Mo., freshman, was taken from the west side of Haworth hall sometime Friday.
Romney may quit says Sen. Javits
NEW YORK —(UPI)— Gov. George Romney of Michigan will withdraw as a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination and actively support someone else if convinced he cannot win it, says Sen. Jacob K. Javits, R-N.Y.
"When the signs are clear, he will do his utmost to gather support for another candidate," Javits said. He indicated Sunday that the other candidate might very well be Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York.
Javits said, however, it was "unthinkable" that Rockefeller, a strong Romney supporter, would declare his own candidacy at this time. The senator said Romney should remain the candidate of
Republican moderates unless he failed in the New Hampshire and Wisconsin primaries.
While acknowledging that Romney had suffered "serious reverses" and former vice president Richard M. Nixon commanded a "big lead" at present, Javits said Nixon was not the candidate of the "moderate section" of the party.
"The fact is he is . . . an old face, not a new face." Javits added. "I think we need a new face if we're going to win.
"If Governor Romney should fail," Javits said, "then people like myself must look elsewhere. I am not inhibited . . . from looking to Governor Rockefeller in that event."
