Oread 'Barracks'
(Continued from page 1)
"It seems like you get more done here than at other places," he said. "I like the individual rooms best of all. When you have a roommate he sooner or later will get on your nerves."
WHILE HE TALKED Calwell sketched a bluegill on the frosted glass of his door—the fish is his trademark. A particularly good one since he is on the swim team and turns the 400-meter free style in 4:50.
Many of the residents sketch figures or ink slogans on their doors, making a walk down the hallway an esthetic and an intellectual adventure. One door slogan informs the reader that certain beverages are manufactured inside. It adds: "Our beverages conform to AA regulations."
It's a long walk to chow at Oread—all the way up the hill to J. R. Pearson Hall—but Oread residents don't seem to mind.
"The walk is good for you," one savs.
"RESIDENCE HAS BECOME a status symbol but where you live is just a place. What is important is the individual himself. Material things, in themselves, are unimportant." he savs.
John Lovekin, Overland Park first year law student, agrees.

Milo G. Sloo, Topeka senior, agreed. "Nobody ever goes to the field house. Fraser Hall might be all right, but the Union might be a better place.
"Everybody seems to go through there (Fraser) but nobody ever stops," he added.
Defending the Allen Field House-Summerfield area as a possible voting district, Eben Omega Porch, Kansas City, Mo., business school senior, said, "Summerfield would be convenient for many students. All my classes except one are in Summerfield. All juniors in the Business School have all their classes there, too. And there are always lots of college students in the Hawklet."

Magnetic Lifesavers
A powerful magnet of nickel, cobalt and aluminum alloy may be used to save lives on snowbound mountain areas. Inserted in the heel of a boot, the magnet can be traced by sensitive instruments through 10 feet of snow, thus making it possible to find buried skiers and mountain climbers.

Lovekin does not add, but he might well have, that Oread Hall with its multitude of minor inconveniences-testifies for the old-fashioned idea of simple honesty.
Dance Fraternity Picks 8 Members
Tau Sigma, national honorary dance fraternity, has selected eight new members.
The new members are Judy Pettis, Helen Griffith, Jody Zirul, Pat Postlethwaite, Darlene Perkins, Gene Masoner, Waltb Bgoya and Thomas Poole.
The try-out period began last week with a two-day rehearsal during which each of the candidates were assigned basic dance techniques. Final selections were made Wednesday when the remaining candidates were given basic floor patterns to execute.
The first Tau Sigma dance program is scheduled for December 11 and 12.
Rose Receives Grant For Solids Study
Kenneth E. Rose, professor of metallurgical engineering and chairman of the department, has been awarded $15,110 research grant by the National Science Foundation.
Prof. Rose has been trying to find a simple method of demonstrating structural changes in metal caused by heat and other stresses.
His project will be "Demonstraction by Microscopy as a Teaching Aid in the Study of Solids."
With the assistance of William E. Miller, instructor of metallurgical engineering, he is seeking a material in which such changes are more readily visible than in metals.
Allen Speaks at KuKu Smoker
Former University of Kansas basketball coach and athletic director Forrest C. (Phog) Allen last night told KuKu pep club members "not to work for themselves but for somebody else."
Allen spoke to the men's pep organization at a rush smoker in the Kansas Union.
He recalled the tradition of the University when the first two sections of the stadium were constructed. Allen told of the "greatest day in the history of the University's tradition" when students were dismissed from classes to tear down the old McCook bleachers under engineer's guidance.
He said that Memorial Stadium was built for the Kansas Relays. He said the Relays give the University more national and international publicity than any other sport.
He said that the passing of the baton puts teamwork into the Relays thus accounting for their popularity.
The Good Old Days
MIAMI, Fla. — (UPI) — The Dade (Miami) County Civil Ballet Company is revising the title of its December presentation, "A Day in Havana," and will make it "A Day in Old Havana."
"The ballet is concerned with romance in the old, happy days of Havana," not with the current situation under Fidel Castro, a spokesman said.
Peace Corps Exam Given Tomorrow
A Peace Corps placement examination will be given at 8:30 a.m. tomorrow at the Lawrence post office.
Any citizen 18 years or older may take the test. There is no registration.
The next examination will be Jan. 26.
A new Orientation Week program has been outlined by the Orientation Committee of the All-Student Council.
Orientation Changes Asked
At a recent ASC meeting, Hubert R. Granger, Leawood junior, delivered the committee's report, a rough outline subject to revision.
THE COMMITTEE criticized the Saturday placement exams given new students.
"This year's extra day for placement tests caused many people to come to the campus much too early," said Granger. "This caused inconvenience, loss of money and made fraternity rush week three days early."
The committee suggested giving the placement exam on Monday instead of Saturday next year and enrolling students who take this particular placement test last.
"BECAUSE OF the Monday tests and the time necessary for grading the results, new students would have to enroll last," said Granger. "We think that by having the tests Monday and enrolling these students later, it would serve as an incentive for new students to attend a summer preview."
The committee also suggested that more entertainment be planned during Orientation Week.
The printing of a pre-enrollment program is in the planning stage.
