Homecoming plans continue
Plans for Homecoming 1969 are well under way, said Jay Cooper, Prairie Village senior and publicity chairman for the homecoming committee.
Cooper said the entire weekend would revolve around the theme "Kansas Cookout, or A Spoonful of Pepper Helps the Buffalo Go Down."
Highlights of the weekend include a barbecued beef lunch in the Kansas Union and a covered wagon display near Memorial Stadium.
Participation in the decoration contest is not limited to organized living groups, Cooper said.
Frosh officer petitions set
Petitions for freshman office candidates will be available Oct. 16. The class of 1972 will elect officers for the 1969-70 school year from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 12.
Any freshman interested in running for president, vice-president, treasurer or secretary should obtain petitions from the Student Senate office, 105 B Kansas Union, said Tom Gleason, Ottawa senior and co-chairman of the Elections Committee.
Each candidate must return his petition with the names of 50 freshmen to the Senate office by Monday, Oct. 27. A $5 filing fee must be paid at the time the petition is turned in.
Campaign expenditures may not exceed $50 per candidate, Gleason said. The election polling places are scheduled to be in the Strong Hall Rotunda and the Kansas Union.

Check into it. Call me.

Three McPherson youths have been awarded $600 Lee Miller Scholarships for the 1969-70 academic year at the University of Kansas.

The scholarships are from a fund provided by the sons and daughters of the late Lee Miller and are specifically for McPherson students. The scholarships are renewable for the full four years if the recipients maintain a good academic record.
The recipients are: Cynthia Ann Stuart, who will be a senior, Rose Marie Ledell, who will be a freshman, and Gary Alan Gardner, who will be a sophomore.
groups would not be offered, and maps of the campus showing the locations of the decorations would not be distributed.
HELSINKI (UPI) — Motorists driving to work got a shock when they saw three elk striding down the highway towards Helsinki. Police, alerted to a traffic jam, arrived and shooed the animals into a nearby forest.
Cooper said the homecoming committee would meet with the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce to work on a coordinated effort with the city.
SURPRISE STROLL
"This homecoming should be the best ever," he said. "We are confident that we will have a lot of participation this year."
School moves
Undergraduate offices in the School of Social Welfare will be moved Oct. 15 from Blake Hall to Snow Hall.
The move was necessitated by overcrowded facilities. Graduate offices will remain in Blake Hall, but the undergraduate offices will be in 519 Snow Hall.
Henrietta Waters, assistant professor and co-ordinator of undergraduate programs, said the two offices, hopefully, will be reunited next year.
