Amendment Designed To Cut Class Officers
Elimination of class officers was called for in an amendment to ASC Bill No. 10 introduced in the ASC senate last night.
The reasoning behind the amendment was that class officers do not have enough to do to warrant holding office. The amendment will be voted upon by the senate and house at the next meeting, Tuesday, March 23, and an open hearing will be held at 3 p.m. tomorrow in the activities lounge of the Student Union.

Their duties will entail designing, financing, and promoting the calendar, subject to approval of the ASC publications committee and senior class officers. All profits from the publication will go to the senior class.

The bill was approved with the exception of the YMCA and the YWCA, which were under the heading of "educational" in the senate and under "service groups" in the house. The bill will go to the charter committee for decision, and any organization dissatisfied with its classification may have its case reviewed before the University appropriations committee.

Greek Week Set For March 17-20
Columbia-Before the "great upset" last night, University of Missouri fans were hopped up about the idea of defeating the Jayhawkers, but few expected it would happen.

Even though the Jayhawkers were
"Make it easy on yourself," he was told.
"I'll take 15, because they beat us by almost 20 points before," it was reasoned, but there was no agreement on a bet.
Two Missouri students discussed the game. "How many points will you give me if I take the Tigers?" one asked.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS
As a part of pre-game activities Missouri students unfurled a large sign bearing the words, "Are we going to beat that answer, 'Hell yes.' As the band played, the two signs were carried around the floor.
Wednesday, March 10, 1954
The cheering section, without much enthusiasm, chanted "Beat KU" in a sort of jungle rhythm and counted off the number of consecutive layups the Tigers made in the pre-game warmup. One of the Missouri players missed after the team had hit 35 in a row.
At the end of the third quarter Missouri led 58-50, but even then the fans weren't sure the Tigers could win. "Too bad we can't hide the ball for 10 minutes," a Missouri rooter said as the fourth quarter began
At the beginning of the third quarter the Tigers trailed by four points, but less than a minute later they were ahead 36-35, and the student cheering section went wild.
But one blonde coed summed it up for the home team when she turned to a friend and said, "Wasn't that just the greatest game!"
When it was all over, the Missourians had plenty of compliments for Bob Reiter and Norm Stewart, who scored 46 points between them for the Tigers.

And it was—for the Tigers.
New York—(U.P.)—CBS television commentator Edward R. Murrow accused Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy last night of using his investigative powers for "persecution" and offered the senator a chance to reply on a later program.
DR. HENRY EYRING
Talk Slated By Utah Dean
Dr. Henry Eyring, dean of the graduate school and professor of chemistry at the University of Utah, will lecture here at 7:30 p.m. to-morrow in 426 Lindley. His topic will be "Non-linear Departures from Equilibrium."
Mr. Murrow, a member of the CBS board of directors, devoted his "See It Now" news program to a summary of the Wisconsin Republican's career since 1952. He charged that Sen. McCarthy's "achievement has been in confusing the public mind as between the internal and external threats of communism."
Dr. Eyring is a former chairman of the physical and inorganic chemistry division of the American Chemical association and a director of the association. He will address the Kansas State chapter of Sigma Xi, honorary science research organization today and will talk at the University of Missouri later this week.
He is a leader in the study and application of modern reaction theory in physical chemistry.
Navy Is Looking For New Secretary
Washington — (U.P.)— Speculation on a successor to Robert R. Anderson as Navy secretary centered today around Assistant Secretary of Defense Charles S. Thomas and Gov. John Davis Lodge of Connecticut.
President Eisenhower nominated Mr. Anderson yesterday to be deputy defense secretary when Roger M. Kvess leaves the post May 1.
When he became undersecretary of the Navy he resigned as president of a chain of Pacific coast men's retail clothing stores. He served with Naval aviation in World War I and was a top civilian with the Navy here in World War II.
Centennial Planners to Meet
Mr. Thomas, 56, was appointed undersecretary of the Navy last February. Last August he was named assistant defense secretary for supply. He is a native of Independence, Mo., but has lived in California since 1911.
Centennial Planners to Meet There will be a meeting of the Kansas Centennial Celebration committee in the Activities lounge of the Union at 4 p.m. today.
A Columbia Broadcasting system spokesman said a wave of telephone calls and telegrams hit CBS headquarters after the broadcast. He said they were overwhelmingly in praise of the program.
The CBS official said the half-hour program had been in preparation for several weeks and had no connection with the attack by Sen. McCarthy yesterday against CBS and the National Broadcasting company.
Sen. McCarthy, denounced CBS and NBC as "immoral" and "completely dishonest" for refusing to grant him free equal television time to answer what he described as a "personal attack" against him last Saturday night by Democrat Adalat Stevenson.
The Murrow program climaxed a busy day for the Wisconsin senator and others in the political arena. Developments included:
1. Sen. Ralph M. Flanders (R-Vt.) said Sen. McCarthy was "doing his best to shatter" the Republican party and set up a one-man party called "McCarthyism." He accused Sen. McCarthy of diverting the nation's attention from the "dangerous problem" of Communist expansion in Europe, Asia, and South America.
2. Sen. William F. Knowland, Senate Republican leader, said he thought it was "sound procedure" for the choice of a speaker to answer Mr. Stevenson's charges to be left to the Republican National committee. It was learned that President Eisenhower personally picked Vice President Richard M. Nixon to make the GOP rebuttal.
4. The Senate Republican policy committee unanimously approved recommendations for changes in the rules governing senatorial investigations. The changes were designed to answer Mr. Eisenhower's plea for an effective code of fair play covering Senate committees.
3. Vice President Nixon, in Philadelphia said his speech would present the viewpoint of the GOP as a whole and "particularly" of Mr. Eisenhower. He said he would confer with the President before delivering the speech. He made no mention of conferring with Sen. McCarthy.
5. Federal Communications Commissioner Robert E. Lee, a personal friend of Sen. McCarthy said he thought it was "very fair" for the television networks to offer the GOP free time to answer Democratic charges. He declined specific comment on Sen. McCarthy's rejected request for equal time.
