Kansas Gets $2.5 Million For Schools
Kansas colleges and universities will get about $2.5 million per year for three years from the recently enacted federal aid to education bill building fund, said Max Bickford executive officer of the Kansas Board of Regents.
Gov. John Anderson will designate the agency in Kansas to distribute the funds, Bickford said in a telephone interview yesterday.
KANSAS' SHARE of $2.5 million was determined on the basis of student population in Kansas. KU's share has not yet been determined.
The entire $1.2 billion bill, passed by Congress Tuesday, allocates $180 million per year for three years for libraries and facilities for instruction in physical and natural sciences, language, and mathematics.

"There is some doubt that such an agency exists at this time," Bickford said.
THE BILL STATES, according to Bickford, "The agency to be designated must be broadly representative of higher education, including public and private institutions and junior colleges."
The Board of Regents, Bickford said, does not represent junior colleges and private colleges.
Some of the funds should be avail- able for building programs by July 1, 1964. Bickford said.
THE BILL could possibly alter plans for KU's building program, Bickford believes, but declined to comment further at this time.
At present, state funds have been appropriated for the construction of a new Fraser Hall and a new Robinson Gymnasium.

SMOP Post Office Project Making Card Delivery Free
The Christmas Card Post Office has been changed from a money-making project into a service project.
The Memorial Scholarship committee (SMOP) of the Associated Women Students (AWS) had planned to raise money for scholarships by delivering campus mail for two cents a letter.
Originally advised that the plan was within legal bounds as a "private messenger service,""the committee was told Tuesday by the postal inspector that their plan had to be altered because of postal regulations. They are not able to charge for the mail.
Rather than abandon the post office, members of AWS decided delivering campus mail free today, next Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Packages still cost ten cents to mail.
The SMOP Post Office is located in the Information Booth between 9:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m.Daily deliveries are made to organized houses, departments, and faculty offices.
Elizabeth March, Tulsa, Okla. sophomore who is working in the SMOP project, said the delivery service was receiving quite a few letters, but only a few packages. She said most of the letters are inter-group Christmas cards.
Friday 13, Fact or Superstition?
Everything gone wrong today?
No wonder: it's that unluckiest of unlucky days. Friday the 13th.
There are those who scoff at superstition: the cold shower, the fall down the steps of Marvin, the hour-exam failure can be logically explained by the natural phenomena of physics, weather, and lack of study.
But there are those with stronger ties with the spiritual world who realize that they were doomed today.
Adam and Eve, myth has it, were driven from the garden of Eden on a Friday. Romans were afraid to attempt business of any importance on that day.
