McNown To Visit Nigeria In Spring
John S. McNown, dean of the School of Engineering, will spend the spring semester in Nigeria developing a plan for engineering education in West Africa.
His trip will be sponsored by a Ford Foundation grant. During his absence, W. P. Smith, professor of electrical engineering, will serve as acting dean of the School of Engineering.
The trip will be McNown's second visit to Africa in the last 10 months. He and Merk Hobson, dean of the College of Engineering and Architecture at the University of Nebraska, visited eight educational centers in Sudan, Kenya, Nigeria, Ghana, Ivory Coast and Senegal April 1-20.
McNown's headquarters will be at Ibadan, Nigeria. From there he will visit and explore engineering facilities at nearby universities.
He will attempt to determine the differences in a student's preparation to study engineering in West Africa as compared to the United States. McNown said that on his first visit only the countries within or formerly within the United Kingdom offered programs in engineering. The programs in civil, electrical and mechanical engineering are heavily oriented toward the pattern prevalent through out the United Kingdom.
Dean McNown's family will accompany him on the trip. His oldest son, Steve, who attended KU his first two years, is presently studying at the University of Ibadana. His son Bob, who is a KU freshman, will also attend the University of Ibadana the second semester.

ELISABETHVILLE, Katanga — (UPI) - U.N. forces prepared today to start moving into the Katangese stronghold of Kolwezi on the basis of an agreement with provincial President Moise Tshombe.
UN Prepares To Move Forces Into Kolwezi
U. N. occupation of Kolwezi, a mining center and air base 150 miles northwest of here, was expected to make possible further talks on ending Katanga's secession and settling the 30-month Congo crisis.
McCoy's
A FIVEPOINT AGREEMENT between Tshombe and U.N. officials here yesterday stipulated the U.N. take-over of Kolwezi would be completed peacefully by Monday. The agreement followed Tshombe's Tuesday announcement of surrender in the face of U.N. military pressure.
An estimated 2,000 Kattangee gendarmes and 300 white mercenaries were massed at Kolwezi, Tshombe's last bastion, but U.N. officials anticipated no trouble from them. Tshombe agreed to order the gendarmes and the population to cooperate in the U.N. occupation.

However, Tshombe's agreement with U.N. officials still has not convinced central Premier Cyrille Adoula of the Katangese leader's sincerity to reumite his mineral-rich province with the rest of the Congo.
ADOULA SAID in Leopoldville yesterday that Tsbombe several times has "renounced his ambitions for an independent Katanga" only to renge.
Tshombe's agreement to end Katanga's secession was on condition that he and his followers receive an amnesty from the central government. Adolua assured Tshombe of the amnesty by letter Wednesday.
Under the agreement signed yesterday, all mines and other explosives installed around Kolwezi will be removed immediately.
