'Affairs' deflated
The week almost wasn't
By John Gillie Kansan Staff Reporter
It was the week that almost wasn't.
KU's first World Affairs Week, carefully planned since the spring of last year, was plagued with a succession of cancellations that threatened to deflate it before it even got started.
But Joe Goering, Moundridge junior and chairman of World Affairs Week, said, "Despite all the adversities I believe we accomplished a lot. It may sound trite but I think it was worth the time and effort that was put into it. It was a success in relative terms. We exposed a large number of people to at least a small amount of controversy."
Goering's troubles began last Friday night when he was notified that the keynote speaker,
Paul-Henri Spaak, former Belgian premier, was bed-ridden with pneumonia in Iowa.
"I was in Kansas City to celebrate the coming success of World Affairs Week, when I received the call." he said. "I was shocked but I wasn't really upset. No one had ever thought of the possibility that Spaak couldn't come."
Goering said, however, that he was pleased with John Hlavacek, Spaak's replacement.
"He talked about the common people and their feelings. He presented an aspect of the problem that deserved to be told," Goering said.
The second foul-up came Monday night when the second major speaker, Ramparts editor Donald Duncan, canceled his Tuesday speech because of the death of one of his parents.
While Goering's committee had not handled Duncan, they had included his speech in the week's agenda. Goering felt the cancellation was a blow to the week's activities.
When the films produced by Vietnam's National Liberation Front failed to arrive Tuesday, the week's organizers were miffed.
"I had called the outfit in New York a week before," said Goering, "and they said they had put the films in the mail that day. We haven't gotten them yet. When we get them we'll probably use them for a Minority Opinions Forum."
Wednesday, another film, "Vicious Circle" didn't arrive and speculation began among Goering's committee members that Ferene Nagy, the week's third major speaker, might not appear.
