1 Woman, 39 Men To Take Expedition
Bv RON GRANDON
There are some who would disagree if we said a woman's place is with 39 men geology majors at a summer field camp in the rough and rocky Garden Park area just north of Canyon City, Colo.
But Jane Lucille Armstrong, college junior, is not one of these dissenters. In fact the intrepid geology major, when asked if she thought she could keep up with the 39 men members of the expedition, said simply, "I know I can."
The expedition in this case is the annual geology field trip which will start June 9 and end July 14. Forty geology students will go on the required trip.
William Hambleton, assistant professor of geology and director of the field trip, said he had no doubt Jane could keep up and maybe "go the male members one better" in all the required work of the geological mapping and exploration planned for the summer camp.
The group will stay at a permanent University site in the area most of the time, with daily forays into the surrounding rocks and mountains to practice geology field work in mapping complex rock structures with the aid of aerial photographs. Groups of three and four student members of the expedition will work in specific areas submitting their studies of the rock formations to instructors who are working with the group.
All-American Girl — Jane Armstrong, college junior, will be the only woman student among a group of 39 men students, 2 faculty advisers, and 3 graduate assistants who will make a five-week study of Colorado rock formations on a geology field trip this summer.
The permanent camp includes all the modern conveniences f r o m showers to electric lights with four student cabins, a recreation hall, and staff cabins. Even here, studies hold sway, and Prof. Hambleton said the recreation hall was used mostly for studying.
But the group will camp out about three weekends during their stay on trips to various parts of Colorado.
During these weekends the group will visit such geologically-interesting locations as Cripple Creek, where famous gold, silver, and other mineral deposits are stored; Spanish Peaks, where the group will get a
chance to see a "dike" system formed by deep-bed or igneous rocks which are near the surface; and lead and zinc mines owned by the New Jersey Lead and Zinc Co.
Dr. Louis F. Dellwig, assistant professor of geology, will assist Prof. Hambleton on the trip, and three graduate assistants will help the professors supervise the students" "chippings." Dr. Dellwig will take his family along on the trip. The three graduate assistants are Ralph Lamb, John Kelly, and John Padghan.

Dulles Believes Arms Intended For Canal Zone
Washington —(U.P.)— Secretary of State John Foster Dulles said today that the Communist arms shipment to Guatemala could be intended for use in building up a military strongpoint near the Panama canal.
Mr. Dulles said that the important question in connection with the Guatemalan situation is whether Guatemala is being subjected to Communist colonialism.
Mr. Dulles said that if hostilities should break out in the Central American area, we would expect collective action under treaty obligations to stop them.
"The extension of Communist colonialism to this hemisphere would, in the words of the Caracas nation, endanger the peace of America," he said.
He said that a meeting of the American nations could be called on 24 hours' notice and, in such an event, he would anticipate possible action speedily.
Discussing the recent shipment of arms from Poland to leftist Guatemala, Mr. Dulles said the shipment "was effected under conditions which are far from normal."
He said the arms were cleared for Dakar, Africa, but "the operation was cloaked under a series of chartering arrangements so that the real shipper was very difficult to discover."
Military sources said that more U.S. arms are expected to follow two rush planeloads dispatched to neighbors of Guatemala. The Central American country recently supplied with arms from Iron curatin sources.
Faculty Group Elections Held
The elections of Albert Palmerlee, professor of engineering drawing, and Charles D. Michener, professor of ontology, to the advisory committee of the University of Kansas Senate was announced at vesterdav's meeting.
Ray Q. Brewster, professor of chemistry, succeeds himself on the Senate's committee on committees. In the mail ballot held prior to the meeting, Carroll D. Clark, pro-education and biology and mathematics, Smith, professor of mathematics, were re-elected to the athletic board.
The Senate referred back to the advisory committee a proposal for changing eligibility rules for student participation in non-varsity athletic activities. The matter will be taken up again next fall.
The Senate is the All-University faculty governing body. Its membership is faculty above the rank of associate professor and deans and directors of certain divisions.

McCarthy Hits Army's Charts
Washington —(U.P)— Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy accused the Army today of producing "phony" charts about Pvt. David G. Schine's passes, but Schine's former commander declared that the charts told the truth.
$15 Million Set For Fiscal Year
The total operating budget of the University of Kansas for the fiscal year beginning July 1 will be approximately $15,760,000. Raymond Nichols, executive secretary of the University, said today.
However, the budget for the University proper, excluding the various subsidiary activities such as housing, sponsored research, Student Union, will be $13,099,622. Of this, $7,377,910 is the budget for the Lawrence campus and $5,721,-712 for the KU Medical center.
The Lawrence campus budget reflects a 4.1 per cent increase over that for the fiscal year ending June 30. The Medical center budget is 8.8 per cent larger. The difference results from putting several new facilities into use at Kansas City.
The legislative appropriation for operations on the Lawrence campus is $6,075,000. At the Medical center hospital fees cover a much larger portion of the budget and the appropriation for the year there is $2,367,500.
Senior Invitations Available Now
All senior announcements are now available at the business office, H. I. Swartz, accountant, said yesterday.
Those seniors who have placed their orders for announcements should pick them up at window No.4.
The charts were introduced in the 20th day of the televised Army-McCarthy hearings to show that Pvt. Schine got 16 passes at Fort Dix, N. J., in a period when the average trainee got only six.
Sen. McCarthy did not dispute these figures. But he complained that the pass record on Pvt. Schine's chart was marked heavily in black while that on the chart for the average trainee was not.
Sen. McCarthy asserted this was a "dishonest" and "phony" attempt to deceive the television audience. He and an aide went over the charts making black marks on the "typical" trainee's record.
Maj. Gen. Cornelius E. Ryan, Fort Dix commander, testified that Pvt. Schine was given the passes at the request of staff members of the Senate Investigating subcommittee for which he was an unpaid consultant until he was drafted Nov. 3. Gen. Ryan said this was "absolutely not" improper on the part of Sen. McCarthy and his subcommittee aides, since Army Secretary Robert T. Stevens had authorized passes for committee work. But he insisted the story told by the charts was true. He said he supplied the information on which the charts were prepared.
"I don't see anything, dishonest about them," Gen. Ryan said. "They reflect the truth. They are not inaccurate and misleading."
Gen. Ryan said he personally put a stop to week-night passes for Pvt. Schine on Dec. 8 after the youth had been out late several nights in a row. He said he felt Pvt. Schine had to get proper sleep lest he kill himself or someone else during training with weapons.
The Army has accused Sen. McCarthy and two aides—subcommittee chief counsel Roy M. Cohn and staff director Francis P. Carr—of using "improper means" to get special fayors for Pvt. Sehine.
Gen. Ryan testified that, except for the passes, Pvt. Schine got "no special favors at Fort Dix."
LAST MINUTE RUSH—William Francis, pharmacy freshman, Sara Deibert, college junior, and Cynthia Reade, college junior, finish up "unknowns" during the last meeting of their qualitative analysis laboratory. Next semester all chemistry classes will be held in the new Science building.
