13 Moslems Celebrate Month's Fasting Rites
Thirteen Moslem students here have been fasting for the past lunar month (April 23 to May 22) in an annual religious affair similar to the Christians' pre-Lent dieting.
The reason for the fasting is to "discipline our minds and bodies," according to Mohamed Kazem, graduate student from Egypt, who lost about nine pounds in the process. Kazem claims that the mind functions more clearly when the stomach is empty, and he finds he can concentrate on his studies better when hungry.
"The fasting also gives us a common feeling of unity when we realize that about 400 million Moslems throughout the world are doing the same thing." he added.
In addition to giving up food from sunrise to sunset, the Moslems also give up all liquids. They cannot drink even water during those hours. And possibly even more difficult to give up, especially near final time, is smoking.
The fasting period ended Sunday, no later, and the Moslems on the KU campus got together that evening to begin the traditional threeday feast which ends today.
"And what does the feast celebrate?" Kazem was asked.
Without hesitation, he answered:
"The end of the fasting, of course"

A Pointer
Schoewe Goes To Coal Parley
Dr. Walter L. Schoewe, who is in charge of the Kansas coal inventory program of the State Geological survey, recently attended the American Mining Congress Coal convention in Cleveland.
In a convention attended by almost 12,000 persons, the main theme was coal production from the operator's viewpoint, with emphasis being placed on more efficient and less expensive methods of producing coal.
technical sessions studied strip mining and deep mining, with lesser importance being placed on coal preparation and chemicals derived from coal.
The main feature of the convention was 300 manufacturer's exhibits of coal mining machinery and equipment valued at about $5 million.
