Homecoming Queen
Candidates register soon
Women students have one week to select candidates for the 1967 Homecoming Queen. As a new policy for this year's contest, women not living in organized groups will be allowed to submit a candidate.
Nominations must be received in the Office of the Dean of Women by 5 p.m., Oct.10.
As in the past, finalists will be selected by a panel of judges made up of faculty, students and townpeople. The queen will be announced at half-time of the
KU-K-State Homecoming game, Nov. 4.
Because of the large number of undergraduate women not living in organized residences, the Homecoming Queen Committee is accepting candidates not belonging to any group, as well as one candidate from each sorority and scholarship hall, four from McCollum and Naismith, six from Lewis and Hashinger and even one from the upperclass women in the Oliver "Penthouse." The nominations from the unorganized
women must be accompanied by a petition signed by 50 women students.
Block tickets for the Louis "Satchmo" Armstrong homecoming concert will go on sale Oct. 16, according to David Pitts, Wichita junior and chairman of the concert steering committee.
Nominees must have completed at least one full semester at KU, be enrolled for Fall 1967 and have at least a 1.25 grade point average.
Armstrong, whose recording of "Hello Dolly" sold more than a million copies, will play his horn and sing at 8 p.m., Nov. 4 in Allen Field House.
Satchmo block tickets slated for sale Oct.16
Pitts said tickets will go on sale at the information booth and in the Kansas Union Oct. 23 or
Interviews at luncheon
Every hotel and motel room in Lawrence is taken.
Motels say rooms taken for weekend
"We are also booked solid for the following three home games," she said.
25. Prices have not been determined, he said.
Jeff Bailey of the Virginia Inn said latecomers could have a chance to get a room only if the motel had a cancellation. But that chance is very slim.
Out-of-towners who plan to attend Saturday's KU-Ohio game and have not made previous sleeping arrangements shouldn't bother.
The Eldridge Hotel has been booked for three months, according to Beulah Crawford, desk clerk.
Armstrong will be accompanied in the concert by his "All-Stars," who have performed with him during engagements throughout the world.
Not only is the Lawrence Holiday Inn full—so are branches in Topeka and Kansas City. "Even our inn in Ottawa is filling up," said Helen Hail, desk clerk.
First becoming interested in music as a boy in New Orleans, "Satchmo" has been blowing a horn for more than 50 years.
His first instrument was a four-string guitar made of a cigar box, copper wire, and a piece of flat wood for the neck.
While in a waif's home in New Orleans, Armstrong learned to play the bugle and cornet. He played with several jazz bands throughout the country, and in 1925 abandoned the cornet for the trumpet and formed his own band.
Widespread performances
Armstrong has not only performed throughout the United States, but has also played in many parts of Europe as well as in Russia and Africa.
Among his best-known recordings are: "Chinatown," "Tiger Rag," "I Can't Give You Anything But Love," "Treasure Island," "Ain't Misbehavin" and "You Rascal, You."
In-dorm drinks still not allowed
The use of dormitory social funds for the purchase of beer at social functions does not mean drinking will be allowed in residence halls.
Donald K. Alderson, dean of men, said this is strictly for off-campus parties.
P-to-P tour, picnic
A free bus trip to Kansas City followed by a picnic dinner will be sponsored by People-to-People Sunday.
"This is the first of a series of monthly tours for new students, especially foreign students," Kathy Alexander, Pratt junior and hospitality chairman, said. "It will give them a chance to see places of interest off the KU campus."
After touring the Nelson Art Gallery in Kansas City and the Truman Library at Independence, Mo., the group will stop for a picnic at Swope Park.
Food will be provided by People-to-People.
New students interested in the tour, limited to 34 people, can sign up in the People-to-People office in the Kansas Union.
The bus leaves at noon Sunday from in front of the Union and will return at 6 p.m.
Future trips will include tours of Hallmark Cards, the Menninger Foundation, Proctor and Gamble and the Goodyear Tire Plant.
The judging will be at 1 p.m. Oct. 22, at a luncheon and interview session in the Centennial Room of the Union. Candidates will then be judged on their poise, personality, appearance and contribution to the university. The three finalists will be announced shortly after the luncheon.
The finalists will then make television, radio and personal appearances the week preceding homecoming, climaxed by the crowning of the queen at the game and an appearance at the show that night.
