College Students Favor Sexual Freedom, Poll States

At a time when everything is rising the cost of food, fuel and education a recent nationwide survey shows one thing dropping: barriers to sexual health. The only thing free in the future may be free love.
According to a survey released last month by Daniel Yanklovich, 61 per cent of college students today favor sexual freedom, which compares with 43 per cent in 1869. Apparently, more and more students have picked up the best of the frenzied use of the '90s who heralded in the sexual revolution.
Jan Sanders, assistant dean of women, said she believed sex had become much more open on the campus. "We're starting to realize that we do
"People have been doing the same things for many years," she said, "but now they're doing them more openly. A choice has been given to *students* and only they have the power to make it."
that each individual had access to information to make an informed choice.
Sanders, an adviser to the Commission of Human Sexuality program, said a new openness was helping to clear up conflicting messages and misconceptions that both males and females had.
She said it had become increasingly important
*Women are told 'Sex is an animal instinct; it is dirty on one hand, then 'Baited it for the one day.'*
"They're learning like they have choices and
don't have to perform like a sex machine just
being able to do it."
Sanders said she thought barriers against some sexual practices were also dropping.
Men used to have to prove what studies they were, which also involved a lot of pressure, she said.
"For example, people who are gay don't have to be locked in a closet anymore." she said.
A less optimistic view on the subject of sexual freedom came from Bill Robinson, assistant dean of men's studies.
"I suspect people are talking about the same
Dings they were five years ago," Robinson said. "Possibly they are talking more, but I see no one."
He said he wasn't 'at all convinced that people had become more tolerant.
"I find a new kind of intolerance, instead. There is a great intolerance that focuses on people perceived as being intolerant. It is what I call the reversed bigot."
Robinson said that on the college campus, at least, people who openly stated preference for homosexual relationships had a bit more freedom: "I have some concern it will get tighter, though. Gradually, it may lead to a highly polarized situation where people retreat to their privacy, even secrecy, than to cope with barbs and criticisms from opposing groups," he said.
Robinson said he thought women's liberation in regard to sex was a very positive thing.
"I think it is a good thing many women are willing to state personal rights and assert themselves in sexual relationships and demand their right to orgasms," Robinson said.
Dan Baton, assistant professor of social psychology, also indicated that the change may not be a complete reversal.
"I tend to attribute some of it to the change in the way of responding to questionnaire items," he said.
"If you think it's cool to answer questions a certain way, you do."
Batson also saw a trend toward "losening up" in the form of more equal relationships.
"I see a good deal more tolerance, not accuse him," he said. "It is more of an I don't want to deal with you."
Baton said that he saw a lot less tension on campus now than in the '90s, but he didn't sure what caused it. He says it's not related to him.
Lee Hubbell, Lawrence graduate student, an active member of Lawrence Gay Liberation, Inc., said he believed people were just now really deserving such things as sexual liberation and preferences.
"I wonder, though, to what degree people are afraid of being said," said W. apyathe set in on the sexual revolution.
Hubbell said homosexuality hadn't even come near acceptance by society today.
"It is more of a tolerance," Hubbell said, "but considering that we've gone from outright persecution to tolerance in a relatively short time, it is a pretty big step.
"It is more an awareness for individual freedom that we're concerned about, not necessarily just sexual freedom," he said.
"The ability to love without fear is much more than a sexual type of thing," she said.
A counselor for the Gay Counseling Service who requested anonymity agreed with Hubbell.
Lynn Taylor, dean of the Kansas School of Religion, tended to disagree with many of the reservations concerning sexual freedom on the University campus.
"It's a fact of life, that this is an open generation, both inwardly and outwardly. This is no nonsense, open, positively affirmative, got-to-get-a-job breed of young people," Taylor said.
Forecast: Plantly closely through Wednesday at partly thunderstormy High.

B-School Suffers Overpopulation
By SARA HOLLAND
Kansan Staff Reporter
Growing pains are being felt in the School of Business because of a 40 per cent general enrolment boom over the last five years. The result has also showed a 50 per cent increase last year.
"Reasons for the increase," said Joseph Pichler, dean of the School of Business, "might that the school is better known than it was when it started to deliver excellence in both scholarship and teaching."
The school also has the only nationally accredited graduate-program in Kansas, Pichler said. He said that other reasons might be that students were more interested in a professional education rather than a liberal arts education, new business fields were expanding, and there were greater opportunities for women.
THE BIGGEST PROBLEM in summerfield now is a lack of space. Pichler said there were too few faculty offices, not enough classrooms, cramped quarters for
the placement bureau and a library that seated only 46.
Space problems will be alleviated when the Computer Center, which is not connected with the business school but which is now in the basement of Summerfield, moves to a new location. The possible conversion of the "Hawket," a concessions and food services area, into the library would also help. Pichler said.
EARLIER IN THE YEAR there was talk that the School of Business would lose its accreditation, but Pichler said that this was merely a rumor. He said the rumor could have been circulated because the school is due for its five-year accreditation review. There are things that will be criticized by the review team, Pichler said, but the
He added that the library was "miserable" and that it didn't have enough room for all the periodicals. He said there were usually waiting lines for use of the library and many students had to study on the hallway floors.
Accreditation is partly dependent upon the ratio of faculty to students. To keep accreditation, classroom and office space must be well stocked; need progressive increases, Picher said.
business school is still 20 per cent over the accreditation standard.
Jordan Greets Nixon
AMMAN, Jordan (AP)—President Nixon got a red carpet welcome yesterday in Jordan, the last stop of his Middle East tour. He flew in from Jerusalem after an airstrike by a nuclear reactor sales program for the Israelis to match a similar pledge to Egypt last week.
"It is only the beginning of the journey for
Nixon. Nixon卸掉Jordan's King Hussein
and replaced it."
As he has in other Arab capitals, Nixon received from Hussein a catalogue of conditions for permanent peace between the Arabs and Israelis.
Hussin told Nixon at a state dinner he wanted Israeli withdrawal from the Jordan Valley, the return of Jerusalem to Arab sovereignty, restoration of the legitimate rights of the Palestinians and an end to Israeli occupation of Arab lands.
U.S.-Egypt Conference Worries Israeli Officials
JERUSALEM (AP)—Israel feels assured by plans for the long-term supply of American weapons but still is concerned by the forthcoming U.S.-Egyptian war.
Miriam Mitzhak Kabin
Hulain called a news conference yesterday, his first visit to Israel. Meir as president last month, just 3% hours after Nixon left Israel for Jordan. He said Nixon's 28-hour visit had strengthened Israel's essential ties with America, and that Israel has already received $4.5 billion in aid from the Nixon administration.
Rabin and Nikon announced in a joint communique earlier yesterday that negotiations would begin soon on new armies supplies, but Rabin said details of information. Informed Israeli sources said Nikon had outlined an arms deal to the United States more than $1 billion a year in loans, grants and credits, most of it for weaponry.
Rabin said American friendship and support "is one of the dearest assets Israel has, and it must be built up, nurtured and strengthened."
BUT THE PREMIER MADE CLEAR that his government was still wary of Nixon's announcement Thursday in Cairo that the United States would be laying Egypt in the construction of nuclear power plants, despite assurances from the president that longer than the nuclear cooperation would be directed toward peaceful ends.
Rabin said he had appointed two specialists—"qualified professionals"—to advise him on whether nuclear reactors for Egypt could lead to the develop-ment of a new atomic energy source.
"I'll hear their opinion, I will say no more on this subject," Tabin said. Pope Francis told yesterday a nuclear technology and fuel deal with Israel to match the agenda.
Rabin said an Egyptian delegation had been in the United States for weeks, openly negotiating with commercial firms on nuclear purchases, but Israel had not been informed of it by Washington. After talking with Nixon, he said, the question was certain that "in future these sort of things will not be repeated."
Nixon gave the same form of response he has given at other stops in his week of disastrous events.
"I wish I could have brought a briefcase full of solutions," he told Hussein. He said he didn't, though he spoke of unspecified items that have reason to give us hope.
"War is not a solution," Nixon said at the dinner after receiving cheers of welcome from tens of thousands of Jordanians and Palestinians along his motorcade route. "We must try another way, we must try the p.th of peace."
Hussein laid down his conditions for a permanent Middle East settlement after warning that if the U.S. initiative lost momentum "the days of no peace, no war, will be with us again in a potentially more dangerous and explosive situation."
The nuclear program for Israel was announced by Nixon and Israeli Premier Yitzhak Rabin in Jerusalem. U.S. officials insisted that safeguards built into the nuclear program would prevent the conversion of the nuclear material or technology to military use.
They made the same promise in response to Israeli criticism of the Earvust plan.
The communique issued by Nixon and Rabin in Jerusalem also disclosed plans for a long-term military sales program with Israel, reportedly totaling $5½ billion over Previous U.S. military sales to the Jewish state have been on a year-to-year basis.
Like its neighbor across the Jordan River, Jordan has received extensive supplies of U.S. military hardware in the past. Much of it was at Amman airport in the tightest corner and has seen in the four Arab nations that the greater part of his Middle East tour.
As the presidential jet Spirit of 78 touched down, armored cars with light machine guns stood about the tarmac and tanks and heavy machine-gun emplacements were standing watch on hills overlooking the airport.
Farmers Hold Livestock Off Market

Livestock supplies at Midwestern markets were way below normal yesterday as some cattle feeders and hog farmers held out for higher prices.
Nixon Aide Gets Prison Sentence
WASHINGTON (AP) — Herbert W. Kalmbach, who collected millions for Richardixon's presidential campaigns and handed his private legal affairs, was sentenced yesterday to serve at least six months in prison for violating election laws
"Your honor, I'd like you to know how deeply embarrassed I am and how much I need standing before you this afternoon," the 52-year-old Kalmbach said, head down, eyes blinking hard in an obvious effort to retain control.
U. S. District Judge Jalbh. Sir Aicia also imposed a $10,000 fee as he sentenced Kalbhm to a six to 18 month on term one felony count and six months for a midemener. The sentences will currently and will be served at a minimum-security institution.
Kalmbach was the 15th individual sent to prison in the Watergate aftermath. He will report, probably to the prison farm at Lompoc, Calif., the institution closest to his home at Newport Beach, Calif., on July 1.
In return for Kalmach's guilty plea on the two counts—one a technical campaign violation, the other barring an artery.
By his own testimony, Kalmach had been the paymaster for political dirty trickster Donald H. Segetri, had raised $220,000 and entered burglaries quiet, has confirmed a $2-million campaign package after the White House decided to raise dairy support prices.
bassadorship for a $100,000 contribution—the government promised not to prosecute him for any other violations.
"He is a man who accepts without hesitation the truth of statements from those he accepts as friends." O'Comar said. "What is deplorable to me, shameful, is that these men were so aware of Herbert Kalmach's willingness to trust.
His lawyer, H. O'Connor - a trust for 25 years-told Kaimbach was a man whose trust was abused by the White House.
"He was not on the White House team. He was not in the planning, the scheming of whatever the White House was doing."
"O'Connor said that Kalmbach, a lawyer who "risen to a position of considerable distinction in the legal profession," had a law degree.
Sirica made no comment as he pronounced sentence.
"Farmers are holding their cattle and off the market," he said.
Marsail said the markets estimated that they would handle 13,500 slaughter steers a day.
Hog receipts also were down, Marshall said, with an estimated total of 39,700 hogs at the 11 markets compared to 55,100 last week.
In Washington, the Agriculture Department said an estimated 117,000 cattle were slaughtered under federal inspection yesterday, compared with 119,000 Monday last week and 111,000 on the same date last year.
Hog slaughter, USDA said, was estimated at 280,000 head yesterday, down from 323,000 a week earlier but up from 272,000 a year earlier.
John Larsen, a livestock economist in the Department, said those figures did not indicate any significant holdback by farmers on another day or two might show something.
MEATPACKING SHOWED a similar trend last week when 635,000 head of cattle were slaughtered, down from 653,000 in the week ended June 8, according to preliminary USDA figures. Last week's however, was up from 397,000 a year earlier.
Last week's hog kill under federal inspection was 1,87,000 head, compared with 1,165,000 a week earlier and 1,378,000 in the same period a year ago.
The withholding action, which did not have the support of all the cattlemen came to his assistance.
D. C., to try to do something about the problem.
Kenneth Rush, President Nixon's top economic adviser, said after the meeting, "The administration is exploring ways for benefiting the meat industry."
"The real problem is to move this beef we have," Butz said.
Rush and Agriculture Secretary Earl Butz said telegrams would be sent to retailers and wholesalers asking them to stock their retail prices with the aim of reducing them.
Among other actions being discussed were increased government meat purchases and a temporary ban on meat imports moving to enable farmers to export beef to the US.
Wholesale prices have been declining in recent months and the cattlemen, particularly the feedlot operators who fatten the cattle for market, say they're selling their animals for less than they paid for them. At the same time, however, retail
