Dillon Quits As Sea
By EMERSON LYNN
Kansan Sports Editor
Chancellor Raymond Nichols announced today the resignation of David Dillon, Hutchinson senior and former University of Texas professor of sports from the athletic director search committees.
Nichols said he had named Mert Buckley, Wichita junior, student body president, to be Dillon's replacement. Nichols said that Dillon had resigned to prepare himself for the CPA examination and that he wouldn't have to devote to the search committee.
Buckley, Nichols said, would attend summertime at KU and would be helpful to students.
Dillon said he had been on the committee for five months now and with the new revitalization of the search, he thought this would be a good time to step down.
The search is now ending its fifth month without an athletic director. But search chairman Henry Shenk, professor of physical education, said he would not be rushed and would not quit until the proper man was found.
"Now all that has to be done is to convince the candidates that the University of Kansas is a good school."
Shenk said that the pressure on the committee to find a candidate was intense at times but much of it was relieved with the new KU chancellor Archie Dykes.
"After the selection of Dykes, it was smooth sailing," Shenk said. "When Dykes came to KU, I met with both him and Nichols and we agreed that the committee would be the best man. That was of the greatest value. It took a lot of pressure off the committee."
The months before the revitalization of the search were frustrating, Shenk said, and bogged down with indecision. But the group was ready to move into January that managed to get away.
"The committee has about 10 more prospects now," Dillon said. "And I haven't worked with any of them. So it will be a good time for Mert to take my place. And I will give him any information he needs to be given, with the past activity of the committee."
"We weeded he had covered most of the country before," Dillon said. "But we really badn't. Now we have asked the alumni to work on a project and some of the country's better prospects."

before Nixon's acceptance Monday of their resignations, sources said.
It apparently was prompted by continuing news accounts linking them to the Watageate swirl and was accelerated after reports that John Dean III, fired Monday by Nixon as presidential counsel, was ready to turn over to investigators certain documents relating to an alleged White House cover up of Watageate involvement.
Haldeman and Ehrlichman were seen leaving the White House Tuesday morning carrying stacks of documents. They rode off in a large truck to the back seat of a White House limousine.
Not long afterwards, it became known that Nixon's Watergate investigators had ordered that FBI agents be posted around the clock at the offices of Halderman, Ehrlichman and Dean and other locations where Watergate files are kept.
Ziegler said the resigned White House still had access to files in their offices but that whenever files were removed an account must be present to record the action.
Asked whether any files linked to Watergate were missing, Ziegler said he had been informed by Leonard Garrent, Donn's datties, that this was not a problem.

These KU students and alumni spent two months in this cabin in Estes Park, Colo., in the summer of 1889. They are, from left to right, William Allen White, John Frank Craig, Vernon Kellogg, Fred Funston, Edward Curtis Franklin, Henry Earle Riggs and William
Suddard Franklin. The trip, which was planned only a week before commencement, cost the seven a total of $500 including round train road fare, cabin rental and food. Every one of the seven were eventually listed in "Who's Who in America."
Beginning of Rock Chalk Yell Was Humble and Accidental
Spring, 1887—No less than a year ago, the Courier was still campaigning for a K. S. U. yell which was needed for those times when the University came out ahead in the State Oratorial Contest or on other occasions.
At the time, it was noted that every college of importance in this country had a college cry and that in every college town, the midnight air resounded with the hideous yells of students in victory, defeat or devilment.
Nebraska has a college with a $1 million endowment, 12 professors 200 students, but no distinctive yell. A college without a yell is a poor affair.
Students of the University of Kansas should be proud that K. S. U. has a yell which distinguishes them and gives them renown wherever they go.
Our yell had humble beginnings as the University Science Club Yell. It was invented by E. H. S. Bailey, professor of chemistry, for the club's annual "It" May 21. 1886.
Shortly thereafter, the "Rah-rah-Jay-Hawk, Science Club" was adopted by the whole student body and changed to "Rahrah-Jay-Hawk, K. S. U."
However, both Harvard and Yale have the "Rah-rah" in their yells, and we can thank R. A. March, professor of English, for his suggestion this fall that the "Rah-rah" be changed to "Rock-Chalk," in honor of the geological strata throughout the state.
The change sounds better. Chalk rhymes with hawk and, all in all, it makes you yell well.
The students here generally reserve their yell for occasions of great victory. But more and more, "Rock-Chalk-Jay-Hawk, K-U-U U" pierces the midnight stillness of Lawrence, reminding one of a band of Apache Indians.

A splendid body of students has been gathered from all parts of the state. They will soon begin to make their influence felt in schools and colleges, and responsibility in private and public life.
We have one of the finest buildings for educational purposes on the continent. The institution is fully organized and has a corps of able and experienced instructors, many of whom are experts, with favorably, in their various departments, with the professors of our oldest colleges.
June 17, 1875—We cannot refrain from congratulating the people of the state upon the prosperous condition of their University. We think we are entirely safe in saying that our university is in the union was ever so well advanced as ours is at so early a point in its history.
The people of Kansas ponder on the noble example. Great universities are among the noblest of human creations. They are fountains of knowledge, homes of wisdom and learning. They influence and, in all ages of the world, have been the citadels of Human Rights.
The educated and liberal minded citizens of the state should rally to the support of their institution. Those who believe their children need a liberal education should prepare them to enter the University of Kansas instead of sending them East. We should cultivate toward it a feeling of state pride as one of our things.
As a state, we have only to persevere in an enlightened and liberal course and our University will soon stand to the West as Michigan University does to the centre.

Michigan University, with its 1,200 students, makes Michigan known and respected all over the union. It attracts to that state a superior class of citizens. It pours into that commonwealth yearly a new school of teachers whose influence is felt in every walk of life. It gives Michigan the best common school teachers of any state in the union.
In the 1880s, the University of Kansas was known as Kansas State University because it was the only university established by state law. The first state school to be established was Kansas Agricultural College at Manhattan, which is today's Kansas State University. But in 1885, the faculty of KU proudly waved the K.S.U. banner and many are namesakes for KU buildings of today.
