McCarthy's'Popularity'Grows
New York—(U.P.)—A Columbia Broadcasting System official said today hundreds of requests had been received for a repeat broadcast of Tuesday night's "See It Now" television program on Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy.
He said the program, which included an attack on McCarthy by commentator Edward R. Murrow, had been put on film and could be rebroadcast, but the network had made no decision on the matter.
And in Chicago, radio station WGN, an affiliate of the Chicago Tribune, extended an invitation to Sen. McCarthy to use free air time to answer criticism by Adlai E. Stevenson.
WGN manager Frank P. Schreiben said the station would "consent to allow any other radio station to operate" in the program without restriction.
Requests for the repeat performance of the television show were among thousands of telephone calls and telegrams received at CBS headquarters in New York after the broadcast in which Mr. Murrow charged that the Wisconsin Senator had repeatedly stepped over the line between "investigating and persecuting."
Art work done by high schools throughout Kansas will be displayed in the west end of Strong hall on the second floor for the high school art conference Friday and Saturday. March 26 and 27.
High School Art To Be Displayed
Four judges will comment on each piece of work Thursday, March 25. Only the name of the town from where that came will be put in "honor."
No awards will be given and the paintings will not be marked as "superior" or "good."
"The criticisms are intended to be helpful as to the type of problem chosen for the art work and the improvements for it," Miss Maud Ellsworth, associate professor of education, said.
Judges will be Hubert Hogue, art teacher in Tulsa; Mrs. Bernice Setzer, director of art in Des Moines; Miss Audry Miller, art teacher in Kansas City, and Miss Isabelle Gaddis, graduate student in design at KU.
Friday the critics will meet with groups of high school students to talk over their work.
A general discussion session, led by the judges, will be held Saturday in Strong auditorium. The students may ask questions and discuss topics ranging from the art departments in their individual schools to the specific paintings they have in the exhibition.
The display will be open to the public from 8 a.m. Friday to 1 p.m. Saturday.
"The purpose of the display is to let the high school teachers and students see what is being done in art work throughout the state," Miss Elsworth said.
Earthquake Recorded
Sod Being Laid West of Union
In 1951 the University contracted to buy 71,000 square yards of sodgrass for $14,200, or 20 cents per square yard.
Homesick students from Missouri can again see home territory without leaving the University campus. Missouri sod from Liberty is being rolled out like carpets west of the Student Union building.
The grass is purchased in sections 10 feet long and two feet wide and is being put down here.
Land around the Campanile and drive has been sodded with material from this contract and 13,000 square yards remain.

New York—(U.P.)A very slight earthquake, probably centered near the Mexican-Guatemalan border, was registered on Fordham university seismographs today. Shocks were recorded early this morning from a distance of about 2,000 miles to the southwest.
Washington—(U.P.)-The Agriculture department reported that Americans smoked two percent fewer cigarettes last year, the first annual decline since the tobacco shortage during World War II.
Americans Smoke Less
This decline, plus a 10 per cent drop in tax-free exports, caused manufacturers to turn out three percent fewer cigarettes.
The report said one reason for the drop may have been that those who shifted to "king size" varieties
Oakland, Calif.—(U.P.)—A grave-diggers' strike that has halted all but emergency burials in northern California's four most populous counties went into its 11th day to today, and a morticians' spokesman said it had created a "serious emotional problem."
smoked fewer cigarettes, but it made no mention of the possible effect of reports linking lung cancer and smoking.
An official spokesman for Bay Area funeral directors hit by the strike, agreed with civic leaders that there was no immediate health problem because there are enough storage and preservation facilities.
The strike began March 1 after three cemetery associations rejected requests for a $2.50 daily wage inage. The present scale is $15 a day.
Good English Every Day Helps Prepare for Exam
The English Proficiency exam to be given Saturday "is not the sort of thing that a student can do any last minute cramming for," said Mrs. Natalie Calderwood, proficiency exam chairman and assistant professor of English.
French, Rubens Art To Be Shown on Film
"Images Medieval," consists of scenes of medieval life taken from illuminated French manuscripts of the 15th century.
A 45-minute film, dealing with the art of the baroque painter, Peter Paul Rubens, will also be shown.
"The most important thing in English composition is good logical thinking." Mrs. Calderwood said.
The second in the series of films on art will be shown in the lecture hall of the Museum of Art at 7:30 p.m., March 17.
"The best way to prepare for this examination," she said, "is to do the best writing you know how to do every day of your life."
"It is a matter of acquiring proficiency in English composition which would enable you to pass this or any other examination."
