Little Hoover Committee To be Announced Tonight
Membership of the Little Hoover Commission is expected to be announced tonight by Reuben McCornack, student body president.
McCornack, Abilene senior, had said last week that names of members of the committee would be brought to the All Student Council last night for approval.
THE COMMISSION will study the activities of the ASC's 25 committees and recommend consolidations and eliminations if it finds the necessary.
He said last night, however, that a night examination in one of his courses prevented him from appearing at the ASC meeting until its concluding moments.
One committee apparently feels its useful days are over.
Bob Enberg, McPherson junior and chairman of the Housing Committee, told the ASC last night that his group should be abolished if no new purpose can be found for it.
He said the committee had discussed three areas of activity in which it could work that could be handled just as well by the University Housing Office.
THESE FIELDS were listing available housing, investigating complaints of racial discrimination by landlords and judging the quality of for-rent housing.
Enberg said the KU housing office maintains a housing list and requires that landlords not discriminate racially before placing their names on the list.
"The idea of inspecting the rooms for rent and classifying them as to quality is impractical because complaints of poor rooms go to the University and they get a good idea of what is offered." Enberg said.
He said he would not then recommend that the Housing Committee be eliminated, "because we want to continue to work if the council can suggest something for us to do."
Suggestions were not forthcoming, but neither was any resolution to abolish the Housing Committee.
Law Alumni Form Club
The KU School of Law has its own answer to the athletic department's Century Club.
The young organization, known as the Committee for a greater Law School, is composed of 12 KU alumni, each of whom gives $200 or more to the law school scholarship fund.
Dean James K. Logan recently entertained the committee members at a Lawrence meeting and explained their positions as both honorary and working members of the committee.
EACH MEMBER received a small walnut office plaque during the meeting, and a large plaque will be placed in the law library with all members' names on it.
DEAN LOGAN also said he hopes
to expand the scholarship program eventually where substantial scholarships and loans, not just fee awards, will be available for those outstanding students who might otherwise accept scholarships and attend other universities instead of KU.
Those on the committee are:
Richard A. Barber, Lawrence;
Judge Walter A. Huxman, Topeka;
Keith Q. Hayes, Prairie Village;
Jason V. Ott, Prairie Village; Olin K. Petefish, Lawrence.
Robert A. Schroeder, Kansas City, Mo.; Solon W. Smith, Oklahoma City, Okla.; Nona E. Snyder, Kansas City; H. Lee Turner, Great Bend; Eldon Wallingford, New York, N.Y. Herbert H. Sizemore, Newton; Paul Parker, Bartlesville, Okla.
"Zero for Conduct," a French film, will be shown at 7 p.m., today, in the Forum Room of the Kansas Union.

The movie is the sixth film of the Classical Film Series, sponsored by SUA.
US and Canada Ponder Project On Resources
OTTAWA — (UPI) — Canada and the United States are taking a cautious look at the possibility of discarding their national approach toward energy resources in favor of a more continental outlook.
The project is barely off the ground at this stage and can hardly be regarded as a "high priority" term between the two governments.
SHOULD THEY carry through on it, however, the idea could have considerable long-term significance for both nations.
The suggestion, as raised by trade minister Mitchell Sharp during recent ministerial talks in Washington, is that the two countries adopt a "North American" view of energy resources, and free this field from the normal national considerations that govern most other resource products.
IF TRANSLATED from theory into practice, it would mean the development and marketing of such products as petroleum, gas, coal and electricity on the basis not of what's best for either country individually, but rather on the most efficient formula to meet their collective needs.
Such a concept is embodied in many joint projects, such as Columbia River Development undertaken by the two countries.
As a preliminary step, the Canada-United States economic cabinet committee agreed at its Washington meeting to have government officials assess the situation and report back to their next session. Officials in both capitals now are working on background papers and are expected to compare notes shortly.

Designer Craftsman Show Features Kansas Work
Eighteen prizes and 15 honorable mention awards in the 10th annual Kansas Designer Craftsman Show at KU have been announced.
The show displays 137 pieces of work in ceramics, sculpture, jewelry, silversmithing, weaving, textiles, glass, furniture and hangings. The 69 craftsmen with work selected for the show received a total of $865 in prizes contributed by interested persons and firms.
THE CRAFTWORK will be on display in the Kansas Union until Nov. 30.
The exhibition pieces were selected from 270 entries of craftsmen who have lived in Kansas or the Kansas City area for at least one year. The judge was Robert von Neumann, professor of art at the University of Illinois in Urbana.
"The consistent high level of concept and execution in all media made selection and award-making
a process of refinement rather than of selection". Prof. Neumann said.
"I sincerely feel that the artist-designers of Kansas should feel extremely proud that they create and contribute to an environment where quality in the visual arts thrives," he said.
The show is sponsored by the KU design department, University Extension, Kansas Union Activities and Delta Phi Delta, honorary art fraternity. Its purpose is to encourage craftsmens in the area and to stimulate an interest in the purchase of crafts.
