'Women in Society' Course Offered
For the second time at KU, and possibly anywhere, the course "Women in Contemporary Culture" will be offered on the junior-seniorgraduate level by the home economics department.
Muriel Johnson, assistant professor of home economics, the instructor who has been on leave since she last taught the course in the spring of 1960, says that the course is, to her knowledge, the only one like it in the nation offered by such a department.
THE COURSE, numbered 158 will meet at 10 Tuesday and Thursday and will carry two hours credit. Prof. Johnson said that the emphasis will be on discussion.
"The purpose of the course is to help the college woman think what her life will be in the future so she can face it more realistically," said Prof. Johnson.
Psychology I and Sociology I or Anthropology 8 are prerequisites.

Reserved Seats For This Season
In accordance with All-Student Council legislation of last spring, passed amidst heated debate, petitions and letters, KU students will sit in a reserved seat section at home football games this year.
KU officials signed the bill passed by the All Student Council creating the system.
The system covers only football games. The season tickets cost $1.50 each, which covers the cost of administration of the program.
The tickets are issued on a seniority basis. Upperclassmen reserved their seats this spring. Transfer students and new freshmen will be given an opportunity this fall to purchase their season tickets. Single game reserve seat tickets also will be available.
Under the program University officials will be able to more closely estimate the number of students planning to attend any specific game and thus will be able to sell more seats to the public. Previously a seating block large enough to handle most of the student body had been set aside at games.
Two Ancient Mines Remain
Tin from Cornwall, England, was traded in the Mediterranean as early as the 4th century B.C. Most of the mines are now abandoned, but two remain in operation. In one shaft, which extends under the Atlantic, miners can hear water rolling massive boulders on the sea floor above them.
"THE COURSE will be based on readings and research studies with varying viewpoints, selected according to interests and background of the class," said Prof. Johnson.
Some of the questions which Prof. Johnson hopes her course will answer about the American woman are:
WHAT IS her life after college graduation or marriage? What social pressures face her? How is she reacting? Why is so much being written about her "problems" today? What preparation does she have for her actual life pattern? Why does she wonder who she is and "if she inhabits her home?"
Birchers Planning Chapter

them, at which time a 2-hour film is shown of Welch reading from the Blue Book of the Society.
A QUESTION-AND-ANSWER SESSION follows, and society literature—especially the two-dollar-a-copy Blue Book—is sold. After reading the Blue Book, a statement of Welch's political philosophy, persons who want to join the society pay annual dues of $24. The student rate is $12.
IN ANOTHER ANTI-COMMUNIST ACTIVITY, nearly 1.000 Kansas Citians attended a lecture in August by Fred C. Koch, a Wichita businessman, who is a member of the advisory council of the Birch Society.
Koch, who spoke about an hour and one-half before a showing of "Operation Abolition" at Shawnee Mission East high school, urged his audience to join in fighting what he called a massive Communist conspiracy that is seizing control of American society.
Steffgen said he also might go to Topeka to organize a group.
He apparently was successful in organizing chapters in the Kansas City area. One is known to have met in Grandview, a suburb.
"Maybe you don't want to be controversial by getting mixed-up in this anti-Communist battle," Koch asserted.
"But you won't be very controversial lying in a ditch with a bullet in your brain."
