State Senator Reynolds Shultz showed "guts" by appearing before the Student Senate, leaders said, but they were disappointed none the less.
Shultz, chairman of the State Senate Federal and State Affairs committee, forced William Balfour, dean of student affairs, to turn over to his committee the names of 21 students given private hearings before the University Disciplinary Board for their part in the disruption of the Chancellor's ROTC Review May 9.
Thirty-nine persons were suspended by the board after open hearings. Shultz appeared before
the Senate Wednesday.
Members of the Student Senate praised Shultz for appearing before the group. Rick Von Ende, Abilene, Tex., graduate student and chairman of the Student Senate, said Shultz's appearance took "intestinal fortitude."
"I have to give him credit for entering a hostile area," Von Ende said.
Peter George, Tuckahoe, N.Y., law student and chairman of the Student Senate Executive Committee, said, "Shultz had real guts showing up. He knew he wasn't going to change anybody's mind."
Some members claimed Shultz refused to answer most specific questions specifically.
Mark Retonde, Kansas City, Mo., senior and president of the Interfraternity Council, said repeated attempts at clarification failed.

clarification on a question, but he wouldn't answer. When he did say something, he would end up contradicting himself later," Retonde said.
The Norwegian television team will work in the Midwest and in the state of Washington, where there is a comparatively large Norwegian community in the Seattle vicinity.
Barbara Blee, Bonner Springs senior and president of the Panhellenic League, thought Shultz evaded questions, and she said she was disappointed in his answers.

Brushwood translation pictures Mexican life
A novel giving an intimate picture of the contemporary Mexican family has been translated into English by Prof. John Brushwood and his wife Carolyn. He is the Roy A. Roberts Professor of Latin American Literature at the University of Kansas.
The University of Texas Press has published Brushwood's English translation of "The Precipice," by Sergio Galindo. Galindo, one of Mexico's leading contemporary authors, published "The Precipice" in Spanish in 1960.
The novel is based on human emotions and universal themes which, seen in the context of a Mexican setting, is another testimony that life's challenges are similar whatever one's cultural or ethnic background.
David Awbrey, Hutchinson senior and student body president, said he felt Shultz probably learned something from the meeting.
An intoxicating new adult game!

"He jumped into this thing before he knew the facts," Awbrey said. "Now he can't get out, and he represents the feeling of a lot of people in the state."
Brad Smoot, Sterling sophomore, commented, "Shultz got really crunched by the audience when he talked about enforcing the injunction against demonstrations at KU. The Attorney General of Kansas can personally enforce the injunction because he has the names from the UDB hearings."
Emily Taylor, dean of women, summed up the attitude of most the senators concerning the value of the meeting.
"Although some students tried to make real points hoping to change the senator's mind, it seems to me nothing was accomplished by the meeting and minds weren't changed," Miss Taylor said.
