Hosting Committee Formed by Council
A hosting and hospitalities committee was created by the All Student Council last night as it turned down suggestions to allow a Student Union Activities group to do the work.
The new committee will act, when necessary, as an official host to parents, student groups, alumni, lecturers and other guests of the University.
THE VOTE on the measure was 14 to 10.
Larry Bast, Topeka sophomore, said the SUA has a committee with similar duties and told the council the chairman of the SUA group had agreed to expand the committee's realm to include the entire University if asked.
"The SUA committee is not bogged down at present." Bast said.
"I DONT THINK the SUA committee has proved it can do the job," replied Greg Turner, Seattle, Wash. senior. He said that Johnny and the Hurricanes, who played for the SUA Open House dance last week-end, were not given decent accommodations while in Lawrence.
Another opponent of the legislation was Mike Miner, Lawrence junior, who said the proposed ASC committee would duplicate many efforts of the SUA body.
"We're organizing a committee to step into the job of another committee," he said.
REUBEN McCORNACK, Abilene senior and student body president, disagreed with Miner's statement, pointing out SUA "is not the student government of KU."

Psychologist to Speak On Old-age Problems
Dr. Alastair Weir, Visiting Professor of Psychology from Glasgow University, Scotland, will speak to KU Psychology Club members on "Preparation for Retirement" at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow in the Cottonwood Room of the Kansas Union.
"The man who works at his job twenty-four hours a day, and enjoys it, is the poorest prospect for a happy retirement," Dr. Weir said. Weir will explain to undergraduate psychology students why this is so, and point out how they can avoid the pitfalls of a miserable old-age.
Dr. Weir, 36, is vice-chairman of the Executive Association for Mental Health, and Chairman of the Research Committee of the Glasgow Retirement Council.
Following Weir's talk, the Psychology Club will elect officers during a coffee hour.
an official welcome needs to be extended," McCormack said. "The ASG has done this informally in the past, but it should be done on a more organized basis."
The ASC also:
- Approved amendments to the elections bill. The major change would give the Elections committee authority to eliminate primaries in spring elections if necessary.
- Agreed to investigate a proposal for chartering a jet to Europe next summer at reduced rates. Tom Woods, Arkansas City junior, was appointed to work on the project.
- Voted to inform Kansas Congressmen of student support of legislation which would increase funds of the National Defense Student Loan Program. Since the program was established in 1959, 2,709 KU students have received more than $1.5 million in grants
- Swore in Roberta Smith, Oskaloosa senior, as School of Fine Arts representative. She replaces Jan Pepper, who resigned.
- Heard a complaint from the International Club that the Kansan has not sufficiently reported the group's meetings this semester. Representative of the club agreed to meet with Kansan editors to discuss the problem.
Instruction in naval life will begin tomorrow night in the Military Science Building for 28 women who plan to marry naval officers.
Future Navy Wives To Begin Instruction
The classes will continue throughout the year covering everything from military weddings to moving from station to station.
During the year, the women will meet with wives of KU naval personnel.
KU Goal Is $10,000 For United Fund Drive
The KU phase of the Lawrence United Fund Campaign has officially begun.
The goal for KU is $10,000. The over-all goal for the Lawrence campaign is $72,900.
Capt. Richard Gruber, professor of military science, and University chairman for the campaign, said letters had been sent to the faculty and staff members.
Oct. 22 has been set for the eventual completion of the campaign, but it will run until the end of the month.
"Anybody who desires to make a contribution can send a check or money order to me at the Military Science Building, made out to the Lawrence United Fund Campaign, which will be acknowledged by a receipt," Capt. Gruber said.
Union Exhibit Displays 'Primitive' Eskimo Art
Fifty-three primitive carvings made by Twentieth Century Eskimos are on display in the south lounge of the Kansas Union.
TIME MAGAZINE has said "The Eskimo sculptures looked strikingly modern, yet where most moderns can only try to imitate the power of primitive art—the caricature-like simplification, the economic, almost childlike use of detail—the Eskimo
The exhibition, organized by Eskimo Art, Inc., of Ann Arbor, Mich., and circulated by the Smithsonian Institute traveling exhibition service, is sponsored by the Canadian Embassy.
sculptures show a force that set them apart from the most sophisticated studio products."
The 53 carvings are the work of Eskimos living on Baffin Island and along the shores of Hudson Bay in the Canadian Eastern Arctic.
The carvings represent the daily life, and animals of the area.
Accompanying the display is a 32-minute color film produced by the National Film Board of Canada entitled "The Living Stone." The movie explains the significance of the sculpture through the portrayal of an old Eskimo legend.
The exhibit will run through October 26.
