KU Women Leaders Vocal at Conference
By CATHY STUMPFF
Kansan Staff Writer
A concern that the women were not being condensed in a Conference on Youth was sufficient impetus for two KU women who participated in the conference to call a caucus of all women.
Casey Elke, Kansas City, Mo., junior, and Karen Keesling, assistant to the dean of women, were the originators of the caucus, which, in a report submitted to the conference body, recommended the Conference on Youth supported a sex attitude based on the male.
The United States is "woeful remiss in combating sexism." The U.S. government has required the employment sector, the government, the U.S., ethos.
is not consider the woman . . . as a fully participating individual."
SPECIFICALLY, it noted a lack of recognition of women's problems at the conference.
There was no task force on women along the 10 task forces scheduled. Female representatives of the female population in the United States, despite conference calls, represented proportionally. The lack of women leaders in the feminist movement at the conference was clear.
In addition to formulating the report, Miss Eike and Miss Keesing said that they called for the caucus to urge women to bring up problems relating to within their individual task forces.
Among the task force headings were such subjects as legal rights and responsibilities, values, ethics and culture, the need for change in the court and Miss Eike said, the subject of women had never been brought
up in any of the task forces.
WHEN ASKED ABOUT the involvement in the movement of women to vote, she participated in the conference, Miss Keeling said that the black women had passed a resolution in 1975 that would end the prime issue in the women's movement. It was indicative of an increase in the status, she said, in view of a general black attitude that abortion is a genitalic tactic of racism.
She also said she thought it was significant that every minority group report except the ones who participated in the conference body by a woman.
Miss Elke, who was part of the task force on values, ethics and culture, said the issues discussed in her task force were such that individuals were predisposed to the status of women in society.
A DISCUSSION on the relationship, for example, between traditional concepts of femininity and masculinity did not allow men and women to become fulfilled in their roles. It changed, it was noted, in order that every person could express themselves. "I think that in my group," said Miss Eike. "that people became aware of women's status
Miss Eike and Miss Keesling agreed that the success of the conference would be judged more in terms of the extent to which it helped them to their advantages to the problem discussed than in federal implementation of the conference recommendations. They did note, however, that the President had allocated funds for an improvement to work toward passage of clean recommendations.
Nostalgia and excitement combined Saturday at the annual Kansas University Law School ceremony, where he especially remembered by the third year students because they are the ones who, while looking with anticipation to graduation, recalled their last three years at law school.

Bogggs, House Democratic leader, expressed the same view, saying "he is hardly a hardy man," and he fearful of using his telephone."
Celler, dean of the House now in his 49th year in Congress, said he had no evidence that his or any other congressman's telephones were tapped but that fear of being targeted led them all in their conversations.

Senate ...
From page 1
"THE CONTROL of the allocation lies entirely with the chanceler, and I trust his judgement in using the money."
Tuck Duncan, chairman of the Student Senate Elections committee, said the ballot was from the Student Senate resolution.
"The idea was to put the proposal in as positive a manner as possible." Dune said.
Some critics of the proposal have charged that the Senate action might create a dangerous precedent.
THE CRITICS, including the president of Emporia State Teachers College, say the legislature may use the action to force the state to be a greater share of the financial burden at state schools.
Dean Taylor
From page 1
THE DEAN SAID that another equally as excited aspect of the movement was that it is definitely world-wide.
But you see, it's just a matter of making ourselves and society believe that males or females, blacks or whites or whatever other discrimination there are, are very narrow conclusions that don't afford all persons equally to do what they choose.
"it is being led," she said, "all over the world by the educated who have the perception to see the world through a different way to do something about it."
While KU's first lady has countless ideas and knowledge to offer students and community, she describes herself as more of a looker at things lost in tourist camps away from home.
"I don't have any inhibitions about being labeled and acting like a tourist abroad," she admitted. "After all, that exactly matches what I am seeing everywhere there is in the seen and I hate in go, go anything."
A RECENT TRAVELING companion with the dean testified to this. She insisted that Miss Jasmine had been admitted a tourist to any of the 1800 castles and other historical sites she and her set out to see one of them.
"I read a lot about the places I plan to go before taking off," he says. "I look at photographs. When you see a picture and then see the actual setting, you have the experience of going there and it's much easier to pass things up. Sometimes it's deflating to think that things don't matter."
Miss Taylor said she always hired a guide or took a preservere home to pick her residence in a foreign country. She gets her bearing and they are good friends.
HER INTERESTS vary from the spectacles others put on to the
ordinary day to day activities an a feeling for living in a different way, from the Investiture of King Edward VII to middle-class family homes in Turkey. She likes to rent a car and drive in Europe, see the USA and Ireland, and travel the week before Christmas as it really is and during the Christmas week of pilgrims, and to go to England, the roots of Western civilization.
The three levels of the house at 87 Avon are galleries for artifacts from all over the world. Miss Taylor says that almost anyone can find the same moments in international art museums like San Francisco, hers are in immensely unique collections.

Hographers could be kept busy for years sketching Dean Emily Taylor with words, recording her sketches and writings and her innovating ideas.
"I suppose if I ever did retires into private life I'd review these books and find that I haven't happened to me, but I've never been the least hit satisfied with what I've written. There just aren't enough books to write and rewrite and say what you mean well." she said leaping out of a secretary's second prompting.
She was late to a meeting, her scheduled activities entered in the book back to back.
"Good heavens," she said.
"What time is it? It isn't that terrible. I have two perfectly good meals. I don't wear other one of them.
"Time, there just never seems to be enough of it. Luckily I don't need much of it for sleeping."
Senate 'Gift'
He said that these measures included positions left unfilled, a reduction in the number of books, a reduction in salaries, a reduction in the number and wages of student employees and teachers, a reduction in materials. He said the donation of $130,148 would be sufficient to fill salaries and fill open positions.

--the University funds by $130,148.
He said the governor would have to consult the attorney general in this case and that the Republicans would probably file his report to the governor. He said that in such a case he would know which allocation would be given to the University.

run there will be cuts in teaching
quality while salaries are going
down and, even now,
necessarily help education."
HE SAID THAT if Gov. Robert Docking vetoed the bill, the funds from the activity fee would not be needed. He warned, however, that if the governor vetoed the bill he would constitute an increase in the original University because the original bill which was passed did not cut
HIX BROUGHT the meeting to a close by summing up what had been discussed at the hearing. He said that the state legislature's donation included the harm which will be done to student organizations, the chance that it could move forward with conditions, and the chance that the state legislature might expect donations from the student association to the University in the future.
Chalmers does not foresee problems with the legislators.
He said the proposal would be more efficient than "to go to the state legislature to raise a little hell." He also said that it would encourage faculties to work.
"I don't think this action will cause adverse effects in the legislature. This allocation is a pledge for only one year. I cannot impose it on the legislators are impressed and surprised by the vex," he said.
'Any effect the proposal will have is to be good. Smith said, 'It might be good legislators and convince them that the state schools deserve better.'
Glee Smith, president pro tem of the Kansas Senate, agrees with Chalmers.
"I THINK the Senate's action is a fine gesture to help meet the crisis. It is too bad we didn't give the University the proper budget in the first place. Some of us, but we did not have enough time."
"I also have been told that students spend more time outside the classroom than professors do. I just think some of these things should be looked into before the Student Affairs aid of the faculty." Strong said.
House Speaker Cal Strowig, R Abilene, said he wasn't too happy with the proposal.
NO ONE IS sure how the action will affect the Legislature, but no one can list specific benefits on which they would actually be used is still not clear, and administrators and Student Senate officers say specific allocations won't be further under the referendum; it masses.
"I've been told that the latest measure of prestige on campus is how many hours a professor does in class. I don't know how many hours he is in the classroom.
"I hope the Student Senate has comprehensively studied the KU budget. There are things that should be looked into.
According to state law, the chancellor is in control of the allocations. He will ultimately assign the budget as it is shifted from the University budget to the Student Senate budget, and he will allocate the budget to the faculty and department responsibilities. Will University departments be reimbursed when they trim the budget to targets set by graduate teaching assistants get a salary raise? Will the Student Senate end up footing the bill for the university?
Answers to these questions will be supplied after the referendum on Tuesday, if it passes.
Law Beauty Pageant Stirs Ire of Women
A group of 11 women presented a memorandum to the Law School Fun Day committee calling for the abolishment of the Law School Beauty Pageant. The committee, a speaker for the group, said that the statement had been written by women law students and other concerned students. The statement was read at the Law School Day conference day by Lelvington, Macedonia, Ohio, first year law student.
★★
Miss Wells said that permission had been granted to the group to present the paper by the people there in charge of the pagan.
The group had also contacted all 14 participants of the contest prior to Saturday. Of those who were originally to compete, only seven showed up. Miss Wells said that she thought that these came primarily because of pressure from their living groups.
The memorandum began by saying that such a pagent was degrading to women and all human beings.
"We are tired of such things be perpetuated by people who don't understand their own part in their neighbors," classmates" and wives" op-
"We feel that it is necessary to point out the conditioning and the unnaturalness of a 'beauty' system."
The statement went on to say that women were susceptible to a self-hate, "what's wrong-with-mouse" attitude. Such thoughts are
dominant in a society where the pretty girls win pageants and get awards. How much is a real thing among women because physical beauty is most often rewarded. What you do, how you think and who you are,
Beauty pagesperte perpetuate an evil myth, the statement said. The myth is that physical beauty is important in most cases solely important.
"We object that the fun of the day is at the expense of women exposed to the "human warmth and hollowing" and hollowing. We object to perverted qualifications used to judge women," the statement
"The attitude which a few unenlightened law students still hold—that there is no place for them to work—speaks poorly of professional training for a lifetime of service for equal rights of all people that women be singled out in a law program for humiliation and abuse.
"We must be aware that the law school beauty pageant is not an isolated example of sexual exploitation. The daily crowds of men, who on the steps of the hall, flashed out numbers which evaluate a group of women passing by, is a prime example.
"To think that three professors at KU have adding better to do that, and that young old women is disgusting, and a poor indication of the academy's progress," she said.
