What a choice
No one ever asked this KU student whether the befuddled look meant the book he needed was gone or whether it cost $20. It was a look common to the bookstore during the post-enrollment period. Maybe he can borrow someone else's and have it photocopied.
Student receives Strickler award
Bruce O. Francis, Garden City, has been awarded a $700 Thomas J. and Margaret A. Strickler Scholarship for the 1969-70 academic year in the University of Kansas School of Engineering.
Francis, who will be a sophomore in electrical engineering, has a cumulative grade point average of 2.58. He previously held the Kansas Electrical Contractors Scholarship.
The scholarship was established by a bequest from the late Thomas J. Strickler, a 1906 graduate of the School of Engineering and a civic leader in Kansas City, Mo.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. (UPI)
-The U.S. Congress on Evangelism may have been one small sign that at least the fundamentalists are awakening to social involvement.
Evangelists learn of ills
SUZZARA, Italy (UPI)—Traffic Policeman Mario Voletich proved that the law plays no favorites when he found himself driving the wrong way on a one-way street. He stopped his car and fined himself $1.60—the standard penalty for the offense.
NO FAVORITES
There are two big reasons for this:
—Their own most basic beliefs, especially that in the Bible.
— They are getting the message from within their own ranks.
The congress was attended by 4,700 delegates from 93 denominations. Most of them were white and most of them Evangelical. The congress had one big motivation: to study how the message of personal commitment
Sneezin' season, wheezin' reason
NEW YORK (UPI)—The sneezin' season, or misery time for hay fever sufferers, goes on until frost. But you can do something to help alleviate the discomfort if you are a victim, says the Health Insurance Institute; something that is above and beyond what your physician prescribes medically.
Here are some suggestions from the institute:
—Stay indoors with windows and doors closed whenever possible.
—Try to stay in air conditioned or air filtered environment.
-Avoid swimming in chlorinated pools. The chlorine irritates nasal passages, making the hay fever victim all the more uncomfortable.

to Jesus Christ can be made effective in a modern age.
—Stay out of gardens and open fields.
But throughout the week, in a rising crescendo, there was increasing attention paid to the fact there is what Evangelist Billy Graham's brother-in-law, Leighton Ford, called "a racial revolution, and as Christians we had better do something about it."
Evangelical Protestants have tended to be uniformly conservative—in their religion, in their politics, in their style of life. They tend to be suspicious of preachments from liberal theologians and other social activists, and they generally turn off.
But when Graham; Ford, who is Graham's heir apparent; Black Evangelist Tom Skinner of Harlem; and Sen. Mark O. Hatfield, R-Ore—all with impeccable Evangelical credentials — speak about the sin of racism, other Evangelicals sit up and listen.
And when the Rev. Ralph David Abernathy, Martin Luther King's successor as president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference—an organization whose activities have been an anathema to many Evangelicals—came to the conference and made his appeal for black-white brotherhood in fundamentalist language, the delegates gave him a standing ovation. Abernathy said his visit had not been in vain.
The fundamentalists have begun to realize one cannot take the Bible seriously without coming to grips with Jesus' great commandment to "Love thy neighbor as thyself."
