Interest High In J-School
Page 5
Interest in journalism at the University of Kansas is rising again.
Enrollment in the junior-senior level in the William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information is 97, highest since the veteran-swollen student bodies after World War II, Dean Burton W. Marvin reports. Last year 80 students were enrolled.
The advertising curriculum is the most popular, having 39 majors. There are 37 news-editorial majors, 20 in the radio-television sequence and 1 in home economics journalism.
The 1962 total in the school is 108, including 4 special students and 7 graduate students in residence.
KU Radar Trails Storms
University of Kansas research radar assists local Civil Defense Director Howard Lindley in finding and tracking severe thunderstorms and tornadoes.
The radar system is on loan to the KU Department of Mechanics and Aerospace Engineering from the United States Weather Bureau for research on severe thunderstorms and tornadoes.
The peculiar talent of the radar, from Lindley's standpoint, is it can "see" these storms moving into and through the area within 60 miles of Lawrence.
Often there are patterns on the radar, "echoes," from these storms that tell a tornado is likely. The relative intensity of the storm also can be deduced from the echoes. Storms can be tracked and their direction and speed computed so closely that mobile ground observers can move to positions to observe them best as they approach Lawrence.
Young Democrats To Meet for Rally
The University of Kansas Young Democrats will meet with the Douglas County Young Democrats for a rally at 7:30 this evening at the Teepee.

A beer party will be announced at a later date.
The Collegiate Council of Young Democrats will meet Oct. 20 in Topeka.

Three University of Kansas women arrived in Aix-en-Provence, France, where they will be students this year at the Institute for American Universities.
KU Women Begin French Studies
Jane Albrecht, Lawrence junior; Victoria Kimbrough, Lawrence junior; and Joyce Voth, Kansas City sophomore, are participating in this university-abroad program now operating for its fifth year under the auspices of the University of Aix-Marseilles.
The students will have the benefit of a faculty which includes American professors and scholars from famous European universities. The purpose of the Institute is to make a year of education in Europe available to more American students.

Legalized abortion will be the subject for a four-member panel at the annual KU-Y English Style Debate to be held at 7:30 p.m. Friday in the Kansas Union Ballroom.
Panel Will Debate Legal Abortion
The faculty members and the physician who will participate have been assigned their topics, and therefore, do not necessarily believe what they will be arguing for.
The audience will be asked to sit on the side with which they agree — pro or con — at first, and then as they are persuaded from one side to another, they can move to that side of the room. The panelists having the most students sitting on their side at the end, wins the debate.
The International Club has been invited to attend the debate, and has accepted as a group.

Individuals can purchase tickets at the Delta Chi house or phone in their reservations.
"We want to make this as fair
as possible." Anderson said. "We're trying to enlarge the Big Barn and we've even considered getting a tent."
Lewis has been barnstorming the midwest and drawing "unbelievable" crowds, according to Anderson. Last weekend the singer played in Chicago.
Lewis has recorded "Great Balls of Fire," "A Whole Lot of Shakin'" and other pop tunes.
