Smith, Shenk, KU Administrators, Retire to Teaching
By DEANNA VANDERMADE

Two long-time faculty members, George Baxter Smith and Henry Shenk, have recently retired from administrative
positions and are returning to teaching next fall.
After spending twenty years at KU as an administrator, George Baxter Smith will return to the classroom this fall.

"It's not really that much of a

"I've been living for the past twenty years what I will now be teaching." Smith said.
FOR 20 YEARS he worked at keeping up-to-date with educational trends in relation to the curriculum and implementing those that were beneficial. He worked primarily with research projects and was involved in the research is switching from working with practical applications of these to a theoretical and philosophical approach to higher education in university.
Smith was retired July 1 as vice-chancellor and will return to teach for five years in the School of Education. He came to KU in 1841 as dean of the School of Medicine and was appointed vice-chancellor in 1982.
"I'm not really changing roles as much as one would think," Smith said. "I'm merely changing the emphasis of what I'm talking about."
Smith will teach one undergraduate course, a seminar in development of professional programs in teacher certification

"We hope to be somewhere between $2,000 and $8,000 in the black at the end of next year." Bailey said.
The 1972-73 Jayhawker Yearbook will be in the black financially, John Bailey, yearbook editor, said last week.
Next year the bookwill have less color and fewer pages than in the past, but it will be a great book, he said. The 1972-73 Jayhawk will be a one-vOLUME, having 452 pages of material.

"BUT THAT don't mean we won't be involved in administration," Smith said. "Smith is very quick to add: 'You still be getting enrollment reports from us.'"

"A professor is supposed to get a sabbatical leave every seven years," Smith said. "I finally got one after thirty-one years."
Smith is returning to the School of Education to assist Kenneth Anderson professor of education. He also started a program program started three years ago. But before he begins his work in the classroom, he goes on to teach in the fall.

The Jayhawker was able to reduce the $1,500 debt to $11,738 and fund the yearbook funded the yearbook $7,293.75, leaving a debt of $8,793.75. This amount was collected during the past year, leaving the yearbook debt at $7,643.50.

SMITH SAID he would study and make records of what services were actually performed and of what benefit those could be given to their students KU. All of this would be in an attempt to build a solid foundation for reference materials for those people who are interested in careers in higher education, administration or planning and teaching.
THE JAYHAWKER is avoiding a trend that has hit many colleges across the nation, that of eliminating their bookseeks.
Kansas State University is uncertain about the future of its yearbook, the Royal Purple. It will appear in 1973 but may be obscured that, as accented by Bill Brown, director of student publications.
"WE'RE GOING to try it this year," Brown said, but added he wasn't sure about the future.
Brown said the Student Senate at K-State voted last spring to cut all funds allocated to the yearbook, but he didn't see it how it could survive.
He said about half the cost of the book was supplied by Student Senate. A number came from students and others who purchase the book for $8 a book.
More than 50 per cent of the students buy the book each year, and Brown called this a large resource for a larger storage area for a university campus.
"I think the students should have whatever they want. Brown has half of them have been buying the book for two or three years, and then the Student would have bought because the yearbook is 'no longer relevant to students,' that seems contrary to a majority opinion."
HE SAID when the Student Senate decided last spring to cut the yearbook fund, students were aware that it had happened. This could mean a discontinuation of the book in future years.
Asked if he thought students would react when they realized the situation, he said, "I hope they do. I know a will."
"Very few major changes have taken place," he said. "The students are basically all the same. They're great folks."
Smith remembered back to his own school days, when the rage was racoon catse and seeing a dog he was be squeezed into a phone booth.

Smith reminisced a little about his years at KU.
"THEY SEE how many they can get into a Volkswagen now," he said.
He saw major emphasis being placed on the scientific approach of using the Spunik era. Now there is a turnabout and the emphasis is on a technical

"The students are better prepared when they come and the lesson has increased tremendously. We have some glants in the education system."
In a more serious vein, Shenk commented on what he considered the improvement in the level of academic endeavor over the years.

Eubank's work consists of examining rock cores and cut samples which consist of diagrams of electrical responses to rocks or measures of their radioactivity, especially in those materials and reports made by other geologists and examines details of occurrences of different rock types.
A former staff geologist for Ashland Exploration Company in Houston, Bubank has been in residence in frontier provinces of the United States. He has had experience in subsurface and rock mapping assignments ranging from detailed facies studies to regional stratigraphic and tectonic maps and in carbonate petrology.

"The techniques they learn," he said, "are exactly the same as their exploitation, locating mineral deposits, or studying enriched rocks."
HENRY SHENK is stepping down of the chairman of the department of physical education which he has held since 1946.
Bickford said nineteen students were attending this year's camp, which is being conducted during the regular KU summer session. This year's camp director is James M. associate professor of geology.
HICKFORD described the camp site as a "particularly desirable area," with a "great 3-dimensional rock features."
Bickford said the purpose of the camp was to give students practical experience in studying geological formations.
"THE PRINCIPAL activities are meant to show the geological evidence, Bickford said, "and making geological maps of the distribution of rock types and rock ages."
"The students learn a kind of mental, 3-dimensional geometry by drawing three-dimensional structures overall structure is like by studying the visible portion of a cube.

Bickford said volleyball was the main recreation.
Every summer, according to B. E. Campbell, the camp challenges the University of Oklahoma to a game of "teamwork," and he beat them "very soundly." The game was played at Phantom Canyon, 5 miles east of the KU campus.

MANY CHANGES have taken place on the KU campus since Shenk's first recollections of it.
