Priests Cast Votes on Italian Influence at Huge Conclave
VATICAN CITY—(UPI)—The more than 2,500 "fathers" of the Ecumenical Council voted today for members of 10 commissions that will determine whether the strongly-Italian Vatican administration will dominate the great conclave. Then they adjourned until Saturday.
The balloting signaled an end to the deadlock in voting procedure that had marked the opening session last Saturday when a liberal group of cardinals urged a postponement so delegates could become more familiar with candidates.
THE COUNCIL, cardinals archbishops, bishops and abbots filed out of St. Peter's Basilica one hour and 20 minutes after they had convened.
One of the bishops said, "the work was achieved. The council fathers voted for 10 commissions, filling out 10 separate ballots with 16 names on each.
He said he understood the general congregations of the council will be postponed until Saturday to allow time for vote counting.
THE NEXT GENERAL congregation originally had been fixed for Thursday.
Two Italian cardinals raised a last-minute question about the voting procedure, but this was worked out by the council presidency made up of 10 cardinals including Francis Cardinal Spellman of New York.
WASHINGTON — (UPI) — President Kennedy today arranged a Thursday meeting with Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko amid growing U.S. concern about a possible new East-West flareup over Berlin.
Berlin Meet Slated
The White House said the Russians had "indicated a desire for Mr. Gromyko to see the President," but gave no reason.
IT SEEMED CLEAR, however, that the Berlin situation would come up at the meeting. The administration said yesterday it believed the Russians might stir up
Meanwhile, there were these other developments:
a first-class new crisis over the divided city by Christmas.
- Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev conferred for three hours in Moscow with Foy D. Kohler, the new U.S. Ambassador to Russia. A communique on the talks was to be issued later today.
- Also in Moscow, informed sources said the central committee of the Soviet Communist Party will convene Nov. 15-20 to discuss domestic and international affairs. The latter probably will include Berlin. The committee is the party's policy-making body.
Peace Corps VIP Gets KU Publicity
Last week if you had asked a University of Kansas student who Warren W. Wiggins was, he probably would have answered your question with a blank stare.
Now Wiggins, the second in command of the national Peace Corps organization, has become a subject of campus-wide interest.
He became well-known here when the KU committee on convocations and lectures ruled out a Nov. 2 student body convocation with Wiggins as speaker.
Since the convocations committee decision, the KU Peace Corps committee has been circulating petitions protesting the ruling.
Jerry Harper, Wichita junior and Peace Corps publicity chairman, said: "The petitions indicate definite student and faculty interest in Wiggins—enough, he said, to warrant a University convocation.
THE CORPS COMMITTEE invited Wiggins to KU after they learned Sargent Shriver, Corps director, was unable to come.
Wiggins, the Corps' Washington, D. C. director for program development and operations, will become acting director of the Corps program this month when Shriver travels to Africa.
In recommending Wiggins for a government award which he won, Shriver said Wiggins' ideas were "responsible for the miracle of planning and organization that has brought the Peace Corps into being."
WIGGINS said later he wrote "The Tower Task" strictly on his own initiative and "out of a quickly aroused enthusiasm" for the proposed agency.
Wiggins, an Army pilot of World War II, flew over the Hump 36 times.
He was graduated from the University of Colorado and received his master's degree in public administration from Harvard.
HE ENTERED government service in 1949 to become one of the 15-man missions which administered the Marshall Plan in Norway. Three years later, he began work for Averell Harriman in the office of the President, where he was charged with coordinating U.S. economic programs in Western European nations.
Wiggins was sent to the Philippine Islands in 1954 as senior U.S. economic adviser to the island government. Three years later he was transferred to Bolivia as deputy director and later, acting director of the U.S. aid program there.
Men's Scholarship Halls Allegiance Goes to Vox
Vox Populi emerged last night as the dominant party in the small men's residence hall voting district when Battenfeld and Jolliffe scholarship halls voted to become Vox members.
Grace Pearson, another small men's residence hall, voted to break its ties with the University Party and remain politically independent.
Football Tickets Are Unclaimed
The KU athletic department reports nearly 200 students have not claimed their fall football tickets.
Students who have applied or paid for tickets last spring or this fall must obtain their tickets from the south ticket window in the main lobby of Allen Field House before Friday, said Monte Johnson, director of public relations of the Athletic department.
The office will be open from 8:30 to noon and 1 to 4:30 p.m. Most of these students picked up their first ticket to the Colorado game, but did not return for the remainder of their tickets. Johnson said.
"Over 9,000, including students, students' wives and medical students, have student tickets this year," continued Johnson. "Last year there were 8,200."
"We want the rest of the students to have their tickets, but it is impossible for our office to handle them after Thursday," he said.
Johnson said the student seating committee of the All Student Council (ASC) will decide what will be done with unclaimed tickets.
Johnson said there will be no exchange of student tickets. In the past, some students such as transfer graduate students who were dissatisfied with their tickets, were allowed to trade them for better, unclaimed tickets.
Students who wish to claim their tickets must bring their ID cards and student fee receipts to the field house.
"Since there are only a handful of those tickets left over," said Johnson, "An exchange would hardly be worthwhile."
- Now affiliated with Vox are Foster Battenfeld, and Jolliffe Halls. Pearson and Stephenson Halls are University Party members.
David Nowlin, Holton junior and president of Battenfeld, said that his house voted 40-2 to reaffiliate with Vox.
"I think the candidates that we have will have a better chance with Vox." Nowlin explained.
Jollife, which had previously been a UP house, voted by a slimmer margin to affiliate with Vox.
Jolliffe vice-president Dick Lawson, Wichita junior, said that both Roger Wilson, Wichita senior and president of Vox, and Vox executive vice-president Brian Grace, Lawrence junior, spoke to his house, but UP did not send a representative. He explained that UP had planned to send someone, but the visit never materialized.
Tom Hardy, Hoisington senior and former independent co-chairman of UP, explained that UP had sent no representatives to Jolliffe, but that they did have several UP committee appointees living in the hall.
Dave Madison, McCook, Neb,
sophomore and Grace Pearson Hall president, said his hall may vote again in an attempt to affiliate.
"One of the boys, a transfer student, wants to run for office," Madison said today. "It is possible that we will take another vote.
Nancy Lane, Hoisington junior and UP independent co-chairman, said Jolliffe is not too solid behind Vox.
"The vote there was 19-13 in favor of Vox." she said.
Leaders of both parties spoke to the halls yesterday evening prior to voting.
party leaders will speak to Corbin Hall women tomorrow night at 6:30. The informal, after-dinner meeting, will be sponsored by the All Student Council.
Dean Salter, chairman of the ASC,
will speak on student government.
