ASC Acts Against Campus Prejudice
The All Student Council last night took action on a campus discrimination by providing for more frequent minority group ASC appointments.
A second provision in the two-step resolution called for campus organization presidents to air their views on discrimination at Human Rights Committee (HRC) meetings.
The bill, presented by John Young, Salina graduate student, and Rab Malik, Pakistan graduate student, overlapped suggestions made earlier in an HRC report.
- Periodical public HRC meetings.
- The HRC report called for:
- Structural examination of student organizations.
- Scientific student opinion samples on civil rights.
- Cooperation with the city of Lawrence.
- Work with the ASC Current Events committee.
- Declaration of Human Rights of the Associated Students at KU.
Phyllis Wertzberger, Lawrence graduate student, introduced two other resolutions which passed unanimously. One urged Chancellor W. Clarke Wescoe to allocate $50 to the freshman, sophomore and junior classes to be used by class officers.
"Last year, class officers had to pay for Jayhawker pictures out of their own pockets," Miss Wertzberger stated.
Jerry Dickson, Newton senior and student body president, said he might veto the resolution. He said the action should have been brought up at the ASC budget meeting.
The second resolution, prompted by the lack of student seats available for the MU-KU game, read: "The ASC and the Athletic Corporation Board should look into and do what is deemed necessary to assure seats for all students who
CRC to Seek CORE Ties
The Civil Rights Council tonight at 7 will discuss possible affiliation with the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE) in the Council meeting at the Student Union.
Don Warner, Topeka senior and CRC chairman, said that the discussion is part of an effort by the CRC to decide its future actions.
Other discussion will center on the CRC's future relationship with the All Student Council human relations committee (HRC) and with the Lawrence Human Relations Commission.
Earlier last week a Negro CRC member was refused service at several local taverns and the Lawrence Commission asked to work with the CRC in solving this and other problems in the human relations field.
Warner met with a representative of the Lawrence Commission Monday and said they discussed discrimination in taverns but no specific action came out of the meeting.
Warner said, however, that a tentative plan has been drawn whereby a special committee consisting of members from the CRC, HRC, and the Lawrence Commission, would consult tavern owners.
The plan will be discussed at the CRC meeting and also the 8 p.m. Lawrence Commission meeting.
Warner said several CRC representatives would sit in on the Lawrence Commission meeting.

In other ASC business, John Lettman, Public Relations committee chairman, proposed a speaker's bureau "to spread the image of the ASC" especially during election periods. Lettman said his committee this week will send letters to houses offering the services of such speakers.

He said the social committee is mainly concerned with the registration of all University social functions with the committee. Registering late or failing to register a function draws a $5-$15 fine upon the living group. A stipulation this year requires the fine be paid one month after it is accessed.
In another committee report Kenneth Keeler, Bartlesville, Okla. senior and social chairman, clarified the function of his committee.
Lettman said it is within the jurisdiction of the Social Committee to place a group on probation if a fine is not paid.

UNITED NATIONS, N.Y.—(UPI)
The United Nations General Assembly today censured South Africa for racial discrimination and recommended its isolation from the world community, a move that would mean a rupture of diplomatic relations and a trade embargo.
But South Africa stood firm. South African Foreign Minister Eric H. Louw told the assembly, "We know we are acting in the interests of the Bantu and other non-white population of our country." He said nothing about South Africa leaving the U.N. as had been predicted in some quarters.

Space Craft Power
LITCHFIELD PARK, Ariz.—(UPI)—A device that can provide future space craft with power equivalent to that used by three modern homes is under development at the Gooyear Aircraft Corporation facility here. Ground tests of the big dish-shaped device, called a solar concentrator because it collects energy from the sun, will begin early next year. In actual use, it would be packed into a two-part cylinder, shot into space and unfolded. Plastic foam would give it the required rigidity.
ASC elections committee chairman described first day turnout in campus elections returns "disturbingly low."
ASC Voting Turnout Is Light
John Stuckey, Pittsburgh junior and elections committee chairman, estimated that 688 students voted yesterday.
In the Vox primary, 183 students voted, 195 in the UP primary, and 244 cast their ballots in the race for freshman class president.
"This is a disturbingly low turnout for an all campus election," Stucky said.
He attributed the low voter turnout to the lack of campus issues to interest voters, lack of conflicts in individual ASC seat contests, and the lack of publicity of the elections.
Stuckey pointed out that none of the Vox Populi candidates will be eliminated in the election. In the UP primary, there is competition between candidates in only three of the ten districts being voted on.
In a debate held at the SUA
Joy Bullis, Davenport, Iowa, sophomore, explained that the UP platform calls for the establishment of a committee that will insure that only committee chairmen who are interested and qualified will be chosen.
sponsored elections party, party leaders rehashed arguments for and against a proposed merit committee to recommend chairmen for the ASC committees.
Brian Grace, Lawrence junior and Vox executive vice-president, defended the present ASC committees saying, "If all 28 ASC committees were functioning right, we'd be professional politicians, not students. We have to go to school."

WHY SHOULD YOU BUY STEREO COMPONENTS from
AUDIOIRONICS RADIO TV PARTS-PA SYSTEMS-HIGH FIDELITY
Regardless of the advertisements, you cannot buy a genuine high-fidelity system in every department, appliance, or furniture store. Not everything called and labeled ul-fi really is; in fact, very few of the units sold as such even begin to meet the minimum technical standards necessary to reproduce all sound types accurately. Some are original, it can be painful when listened to for long periods of time. Just as your eyes become fatigued and produce a headache when forced to work in poor light, so your ears will become fatigued and produce a headache when subjected to poor sound, particularly at loud levels and for long periods of time. A family has plunked down several hundred dollars for a hi-fi and instead has bought itself a very expensive generator of irritation and headaches.
When the market seemed large enough, the big electronic and appliance manufacturers (who incidentally with one or two exceptions, contributed nothing whatever to the development of high fidelity) began to rush into the field with mass-produced packages that were poor excuses for the ideas developed by pioneers. In most cases they did not even bother to copy the designs used by other manufacturers, so they stood, they merely threw in two or three more poor speakers and added several more knobs and tubes to the radio consoles they had been selling all along.
Many of you will find this hard to believe because these packages carry the labels of famous names, and are advertised in big magazines and newspapers, whereas you probably never heard of the names that stand for real quality—Acoustic Research, KLH Altec-Lansing, Dynaco, ACRO, Heath, Lansing, Mercury, Mercury, and Weathers to name a few. (The rest are listed in the Who's Who in High Fidelity.)
Curiously enough genuine high-fidelity components are not only better in design, materials and workmanship, they are no more expensive than their imitations put out by the big brand names. This seems to fly in the very face of the economic laws. We have come to accept that the mass producer is supposed to turn our own equipment at lower price. In this case we cannot for several good reasons. For one, a high percentage of the cost of a name-brand hi-fi goes into the cabinet.
This is the first in a series of advertisements explaining the decided advantages of stereo components over commercial "packaged" units. We at AUDIOTRONICS are proud of the lines we handle. Come in to see and hear them soon. Ask for David, Curt, or Fred. We'll be happy to be of service.
