360 Attend Science, Math Day
The third annual Science and Mathematics day for students and teachers from local high schools was held on the campus Saturday, sponsored by 12 departments of the College, the Radiation Biophysics program, the School of Education, and University extension.
More than 60 junior and senior high school science and mathematics teachers and close to 300 of their students registered for the day-long program designed to provide an opportunity for the group to see first-hand the latest scientific and mathematical developments that are taking place in the United States today.
For the teachers a program was presented on the "integration of high school and university science and mathematics programs." The students were given information on the professional opportunities in science and mathematics. A luncheon for the teachers and a special lunch for the students was held at the Student Union.
The program opened with registration from 8 to 9 a.m. in the foyer of Malott hall where department exhibits were set up in the halls. The remainder of the morning session featured instruction courses for the teachers given by University and high school delegates. The students attended lectures in the biological sciences and mathematics divisions and physical and earth sciences group in Malott.
Each of the science and mathematics departments held open house sessions for the public in the afternoon in their respective areas on the campus. The exhibits in Malott were small demonstrations by. University students to show the delegates the work conducted by the various departments. Graded tours were conducted to all the College science departments during the entire day for the group.
The mathematics department held a math contest for the high school students consisting of five problems on a handout sheet. Three book prizes will be given to the high school students who submit the best papers before April 11.

The idea of having such concerts at KU received its impetus from concerts held in Bryant Park in New-York, where serious speakers and speakers at noon People would stop in the park on their lunch hours and listen to these programs, and many expressed appreciation of them.
It is hoped that such programs as the one offered at the museum will prove satisfactory, and suggestions from interested persons as to how these programs can be improved will be welcomed, said Edward Maser, museum director.
