Starting at 8 p.m., and ending at midnight, the dance will be held in honor of the camp queen and king chosen through balloting by the campers.

"Entertainment for the dance is still up in the air," said Paul Young, supervisor of Lewis Hall. Young is in charge of the dance and all arrangements. "We are negotiating with a rock band, but we can't say anything about that yet," Students who wish to bring a non-camper to the formal may do so. However, they must have a form signed by their camper. If the camper may bring an outside date.

The adult supervisors, who will be in charge of keeping order and seeing that the students have a good time, will be Mr. Murphy, Dr. Brumptt, and Jim Murphy, Dick Brumptt, and Young. In some years past, entertainment has been provided by bands from the music camp. However, because most students like to participate in the dance, they are not as willing to play in the dance bands. Musicians served in place of a live band for music. For further information on the dance, you are asked to write to the Midwestern Music and Art Camp Office, located in 214 Murphy Hall.

Wiley Honored At Anniversary By CURT CLARK Kansan Staff Writer The 35th birthday of the Midwestern Music and Art Camp was marked Thursday by a reception in Russell L. Wiley's office in Murphy Hall. Wiley, the director of the camp, was also its creator in 1897. A group of about 18 people gathered in a Murphy to have cake, punch and speech. The reception was the planning of Wiley's three secretaries, Paula Schroeder, administrative assistant, Bette Anderson, accountant, and Ellen Barber, receptionist. "This party is a surprise to me," said Wiley. "The party was at 2 p.m. and it wasn't till noon when Paula, my secretary, asked me if I was going to be here." Schroeder said the reception was simply an "informal anniversary party in honor of Mr. Wiley for his 35 years with the camp." This is second such party held. The first was for the camp's 25th birthday. After many pictures by a Kanasn photographer, the secretaries, and Wiley Hammond, she drew the cover. He replied, "I'm not a good cake cutter." He cut it anyway. The inscription on the cake read, "To Mimi and the newtwestern music and Art Camp, 30 years." Invited we the department heads, Del Brinkman, journalism, Dean John McKav.

Jackie Raymond, advisor to the campers working on Tempo, said one of the problems this year was that there were no campers in the dorm room. 1066 students. Fair coverage to all of the divisions will be hard to do in this short time, she said. In previous years, the journalism campers have been at camp every day with more time to combine Tempo's contents. Atop the power plant behind Flint Hall stands a little monster 28 inches in length. Conductor Receives Golden Record The theme for Tempo is chosen before the campers arrive so the advisors can make tentative plans in format for the students to follow. By JACKIE WHITE Kansas Staff Writer Seen around camp dressed in his University of Kansas t-shirt and tennis shoes, is L. Col. Sivir Dum, the guest conductor for the second week of camp. He has been the only conductor awarded a golden disc for the sale of one million Royal Marines records by HMV and Columbia. Sir Vivian, from Haywards Heath in Sussex, England, is the only coach to be given the distinction of the Order of the Lion. He was awarded the honor in 1968.

"The teaching of young musicians, whether they be high school or university students, Royell Martins or students of the same," said the same, is the "same," said the guest conductor. Dunn left Monday for Chicago, where he was the guest conductor for a Fourth of July program at Blue Island. Then he began his National Music Camp in Interlocken, Mich. In 1969 the American Bandmasters Association conferred upon him the Honorary Membership of the ABA.

This is Dunn's fifth year with the Midwestern Music and Art Camp. “In my experience, this year’s bands and orchestras are the best I have worked with at KU,” said Dunn. “I find that the young players and instrumentalists of us are capable of the most wonderful performances, both technically and musically.” When in Lawrence, he enjoys visiting George's Pipe Shon. Other music camps he has visited include Lamour, Beaumont, Tex. and Purdue. Next year Dunn has accepted product in North Dakota and Richmond, Wash. "i especially enjoy seeing the red Indian chief, which stands outside the door," said Eric. Dunn is married and has three children and six grandchildren. However, at 8:50 a.m. when the whistle was scheduled to blow, nothing happened. Officials were unable to explain why the whistle didn't work. After a few days repairs, the whistle was finally put into operating condition, and on April 17, 1912, a daily Kansan headline read "New Class Period Save Time For All—The Whistle and 50 Minute Hour Brought Order to Classroom." The story read in part, "The superiority of the new system is greater than it was expected to be. A number of instructors were opposed to the change before it was tried. Now these instructors are thankful for the changes that have been made features of the whistle failed to appear." A headline in the Daily Kansan, March 25, 1912, read, "The Tool Manifesto Begins Today." On this day orders were given by Edward E. Brown, the secretary of the University, for the whistle to begin its regular duty. It seems as if there was slight resistance to the whistle in its early days of operation but it soon gained wide acceptance of both the students and the faculty. This interesting piece of machinery has a lot of historical background from as far back as 1912, when it was first brought into use. A few years after it was installed, it blew off and was replaced by a gift whistle. This was presented by a former student of the University, Robert E. Haggard, in May 1946. Haggard salvaged the whistle from an old car and that had been scultured in Leghorn, Italy. It was in service at KU only a few months because "the plant engineers couldn't stand the screeching monster" according to the Feb. 18, 1948, Kansas. When it was first in use, before the German whistle, it could be heard only nine miles away. After welding, it could be heared 16 hours later and been replaced in new service in nearby towns. So the engineers wiped the old one back together and used it until March 1966 when it finally could no longer stand the strain and suffered a cracked seam. Fritz Made Camp Mascot In the Nov. 20, 1959, Kansan, Eldon Ulich, power plant foreman, said the whistle now in service was one of the finest to be found. Rv CHUCK SMITH "The theme this year is one that the staff seems to accept and identify with," said Sarah Clements. By CHECK SMITH Kansan Staff Writer Campers visiting or roaming in Lewis Hall may, on occasion, see a small gray schnauzer. There is no cause for alarm—it's Fritz, the hall mascot. Bob Hollowell, administrative assistant and owner of Fritz, said he didn't know when Fritz became the mascot, as it started out to be an informal title. Fritz is a miniature schauzer and is a little over one year old. His mother is a great friend. Wiley, who also owns a schnauer, Miles, and another fellow teacher. Hollowell said that he feared in the Pierce case. the first time he saw him, but it took a little longer to persuade his wife. Now they are rarely separated. When the Hollowells leave on a trip they take Fritz along whenever possible, as Fritz is now an extension of their family. Last week Fritz got his own name tag, Hollowell said that campers kept asking him where Fritz's name tag was, so he had one made. Fritz wears it on his collar. Fritz is a little shy around strangers, especially if they approach him rapidly or move too fast. It let him come to them he is usually a gentle dog. He loves to play with children and is also attracted to campers. "It is a three barrel whistle with each of the barrels shorter than the other," he said. "This is supposed to make it harming, guess that on a cold, clear day it will be very effective." And indeed it can, as any student, m- structor, or camper can testify. Bv DEBRIE FAWKES Camper Prokop Assaulted by GERDINI AWILL Kansan Staff Writer Lawrence police are now investigating the alleged assault on June 26th of Alan J. Klepph. He was waiting for a bus outside McDonald's in the head when attempting to return a juvenile's hat to him. The hat had fallen off the alleged assaulter's head while he was running. According to Leslie Friend, McColm supervisor, if a non-camper annoys you, either ignore him or find someone who can help you with the problem. When out late one should: 1. stay in a small group on camp and 2. stay in a large group off camps Caution should also be taken in poorly lighted areas. She said campers should never take a short-cut home after dark, stay on well lighted and populated streets to avoid the desk of your dorm to pick you up. Above all use common sense and avoid trouble.
