CRC Chooses Chairmen Slowly
The Civil Rights Council ran into trouble last night.
It suffered from a malady known as difficulty finding people to run for office.
The meeting was opened by the out-going chairman, Stephen S. Baratz, New York graduate student. It went like this:
8:18 P.M.—Baratz: "The first order of business tonight will be the election of officers. Are there any nominations for chairman?"
(There were three: Charles Menghini, Pittsburg senior; Denis Kennedy, English graduate student; and George Buford, Kansas City junior.)
8:40 P.M.—All of the nominees had declined, saying that their work schedule didn't allow enough time for the CRC chairmanship.
Baratz asked them to reconsider. "We must have good officers and you are the cream of the crop," he said.
9 P.M.--After a long silence and nervous shuffling, the solution was reached. "I think we should adopt a co-chairmanship. This would take the work load off of one person," a member said. A formal motion and a unanimous vote makes the idea official.
9:10 P.M.-The CRC has two new chairmen, Menghini, and Buford. The council moves on to other business.
The members present agreed to adopt five committees. They are: 1) housing, 2) barbershop, 3) watchdog (to check on civil liberties violations), 4) public information, 5) civil liberties (to discuss rightist groups such as the John Birch Society, and to work on academic freedom problems).
Committee members will be selected by the co-chairman before the CRC meeting next Wednesday evening. Member approval is necessary before committee appointments will be final.

Diplomacy Topic For P-T-P Forum
Vaclai Mudroch, assistant professor of History, and Gen. Harold K. Johnson, commandant of Ft. Leavenworth military school, will speak on "The Value of American Diplomacy" Oct. 8.
THE SPEAKERS WILL BE the first in a series of forums presented this year by the People-to-People program, William Dawson, Kansas City, Mo., senior announced today.
Dawson said that the forums will present discussions on international topics. Future speakers are being obtained through the U.S. Information Service, he added.
The "Big Eight" People-to-People conference is being planned for the end of October, Dawson said. Its purpose will be to establish similar programs in the other universities.
A TRIP OCT. 6 TO the Nelson Art Gallery in Kansas City will be the second in a series of People-to-People tours. The first was to the Cook Paint Co. last week in Kansas City.
Dawson said that the final draft of a report on the People-to-People pilot project at KU will be completed in two weeks. The draft will include: an information book explaining how to organize the program, who to contact, and other structural aids; and a "Director's Manual" giving the same information only in more detail.
