Six Added To Honor Roll
The names of six School of Business students were added today to the fall semester honor roll of that school by Assistant Dean Jack D. Heysinger in a supplementary honor listing.
The two-part honor roll was necessary because the students, with one exception, were engaged in out-of-town jobs in connection with the new School of Business "internship" program, and at the time of final examination late in February the reports from these assignments had not been completed.
The six bring the total number of students on the honor roll for the fall semester to 41, Dean Heysinger said.
They are: Seniors: John Carmack
Dieus, Wallace McKinney, Colleen
Helmlinger, and Fred Jordan Soper.
Juniors: Stanley Francis Anzicek,
Ivo Henry Feuerborn.

KU Ranks Ninth in Nation With 65 Foreign Students
If associations with superior students from foreign lands are part of one's education, University of Kansas students are among the nation's most fortunate.
For the current 1954-55 school year KU ranks ninth among all American schools in the number of foreign students attending, sponsored by the Institute of International Education. The institute, a private agency, assists in the placing of foreign students in American colleges and universities. Most of these students are in the United States on some sort of scholarship program through the U.S. government's Smith-Munett scholarship program. Nearly all these institute-sponsored students have highly superior records and are at the graduate level.
Harvard university is far to the front with 110 such foreign students. KU in ninth place currently has 65. Others in the first 10 are these universities: Michigan 92, Columbia and Cornell 85, Chicago 83, California and Wisconsin 71.
Dr. George B. Smith, dean of the university, said that this record represented a considerable tribute by an independent agency on the quality of KU's Graduate school.
Other area schools among the first 30 are University of Iowa tied for 24 with 27, Iowa State College, tied for 26th with 24, and University of Colorado 30th with 20.
Minnesota 69, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology 61.

Voltage, Lights To Be Displayed
The University School of Engineering and Architecture will bring a display of voltage control and light dimming equipment to the campus Friday.
George M. Beal, professor of architecture, said the large tractor-trailer type mobile display unit will be parked between Marvin hall and Hoch auditorium, and will be open for public inspection from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Friday.
In the van will be demonstration displays of variable transformers, automatic voltage regulators and light dimming equipment, alternating and direct current power supplies, and binding posts which provide several types of electrical connections in one unit.
Visitors will be able to work the equipment themselves, Prof. Beal said. The light-dimming equipment includes a miniature puppet stage with a multiple light control. Voltage control and power supply equipment will be rigged so visitors can subject it to various conditions of line and load variations.
The 260 square foot display is maintained by the Superior Electric company of Bristol, Comm., and brought to the campus through courtesy of the Foley electrical supply company of Kansas City.

Educational Objectives Told to IAWS Delegates
Real education creates recognition of reality, acceptance of responsibility and deepening of spirituality. Dr. Arthur Adams told about 325 coeds representing 42 states and 121 colleges and universities here last night.
Dr. Adams, president of the American Council on Education in Washington, D.C., was addressing the 15th biennial meeting of the Intercollegiate Association of Women Students here April 6-10.
The speaker warned his listeners, who are leaders in women's student government at their schools, that "there is no merit in a civic contribution made at the expense of personal, home responsibility, nor is there any activity in college worth the cost of academic failure."
Speaking with the experience of nearly 40 years of work with young people, Dr. Adams said, "Collegians are not the stupid dupes of propaganda and false ideals as their elders fear, yet it is only in times of great crisis, such as a world war, that the old folks are willing to give young people the credit they deserve."
Dr. Adams urged that the various AWS units direct more of their attention and projects at education goals.
Dr. Adams briefly described the activities of the American Council on Education. The membership consists of 131 educational associations and 960 institutions. It functions as a forum in educational ideas, as a liaison agent with government and other agencies, as a research organization and publisher of the findings; and finally its headquarters building in Washington provides central offices for many other educational bodies.
Other speakers at the convention included Mrs. Ernestine Gilbreth Carey, author of "Cheaper by the Dozen", and Miss Margaret Habem, Dean of Instruction and Student Services at the University of Rochdale, New York. Miss Habeam dean of women here from 1946 to 1952
Betty Lu Gard, education senior was elected southern region coordinator of the IAWS at the conclusion of the convention.
The 300 delegates also chose Colorado A&M college at Fort Collins as the site of their sixteenth convention in 1957.
Other officers elected were Pat Roberts of Michigan State college, president, and Povy La Farge of Colorado A&M. executive secretary

Her accompanist for the program will be Jerald Stone, education senior.

William R. Arnold and Barbara K. Becker, college seniors, have been awarded Woodrow Wilson fellowships for the 1955-58 school year. The announcement was made at the Wilson program headquar-ers in Princeton, N.J.
The awards were two of 159 made from among 1,522 students nominated for the honor by America 9 and Canadian educators. My Becker also was one of only 25 women to receive Wilson fellowships. Kansas was one of 28 schools receiving two or more awards.
The Wilson fellowships are sponsored by the American Association of Universities of which KU is one of 37 members.
