Maintenance costs caused hall's demise
Joliffe Hall, scholarship hall for men, was closed at the end of the spring semester last year.
at the end of the spring semester last year. Purchased in 1941 with the aid of a $50,000 gift from the late O. Jolliffe of Peabody, the hail housed about 50 men. These students have been given the opportunity to move into other men's scholarship halls.
Dedication of institute next week
Dedication of the ALZA Institute of Pharmaceutical Chemistry is scheduled for 2 p.m. next Thursday in the University Theatre.
ALZA, a private corporation, owns the land west of Iowa Street where the building is located. It leases the building to KU.
Takeru Higuchi, the Regents Professor of Chemistry and Pharmacy at KU and laboratory director, is the main reason ALZA chose KU for the location of the laboratory said James E. Gunn, administrative assistant to the Chancellor.
Higuchi will direct a professional staff in fundamental studies aimed at discovering methods of bringing useful drugs to their maximum usage of action under optimal conditions and speed.
A public open house will be held from 4:30 to 6 p.m. in the new Institute building at 2201 W. 21st St.
Principal speakers will be Dr. Alejandro Zaffaroni, president and chairman of the ALZA Corporation, Palo Alto, Calif.; Chancellor E. Laurence Chalmers Jr.; Dolph Simons Sr., president of the KU Endowment Association; Governor Robert Docking; Dr. Arthur Kornburg, Nobel laureate and chairman of the department of biochemistry at Stanford University and Dr. Hans Selye, director of the Institute of Medicine and Experimental Surgery, University of Montreal.
Students use large grant

J. J. Wilson, director of University housing, said the closing of Jolliffe did not mean scholarship halls were being "phased out" as a form of University housing.

The building is being used as headquarters for the Head Start program of the School of Social Welfare.
NEW YORK (UPI)—Medical experts of the American Social Health Assn. said there is a possibility syphilis can be "eradicated" by 1972.
Wilson explained that maintenance costs on a scholarship hall were not paid by the University, but by funds set up for that purpose by the benefactor of the hall.
"Jolliffe was closed because maintenance costs were too high," he said.
"In the case of Jolliffe Hall," he said, "M. Jolliffe did not
make provision for the maintenance of the building."
Each student living in a scholarship hall pays $60 toward maintenance costs each year, Wilson said. The major cost of repairing and improving the building is met by the maintenance fund provided by the benefactor.
To expect the residents of Jollife to pay for the extensive improvements needed would be defeating the purpose of the scholarship hall, Wilson said.
KU has eight scholarship halls in use, each housing about 50
students, he said. A student in a scholarship hall pays $60 a month, for a saving of about $300 as compared to the cost of living in a University residence hall.
Because Jolliffe Hall will no longer be in use as a scholarship hall, Mr. Jollife's name will probably be given to some other building in the future as a tribute to his generosity, said Wilson.
The Endowment Association is now renting Jolliffe Hall to the University for one dollar a year.

Do you have to give up your identity to make it in a big corporation?
You've heard the stories:
One big corporation forbids you to wear anything but white shirts.
Another says it wants you to be "creative"—and, gives you a 4-pound rule book telling you exactly how to do it.
Yet another doesn't want you to buy a more expensive car than your boss because "it wouldn't look right"
Is this really happening in American business?
Have companies becomes origid and
fossilized that they're scared of people who don't fit the "norm"?
Not this company.
We are not hung upon trivial like that.
The advances General Telephone & Electronics has made didn't come from people hiding behind organization charts and smiling at the right time.
They came from people who used their brains:
People who revolutionized picture-taking with the Sylvania flashcube,
who developed the high-energy liquid laser, who came up with the sharpest color TV picture in the world, who pioneered instant electronic stock market quotations, and so on.
We are looking for more people like this—people who aren't afraid to stand up and try themselves out.
We are an equal opportunity employer:
All you need to make it with us is a good head on your shoulders.
