We Must Accept Brotherhood Murphy Says
The average American must accept interracial and interfaith brotherhood as a practical necessity for a successful, long range foreign policy, Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy said Tuesday.
"Our foreign policy has been somewhat baffling and often one of expediency for the moment rather than a long range policy," he told more than 250 persons attending the sixth annual Brotherhood dinner of the Lawrence League for the Practice of Democracy at the First Congregational church parish house.
The American democracy success story has become an "infectious virus" he said, "and has caused many of these peoples to follow our lead and aspire to freedom and an increased standard of living.
With the shrinking of the globe, "we have acquired a diversity of neighbors who share common denomensators with us. If we cannot create a foreign policy based on the logic of our own world are grasping their right to human dignity we cannot hope to have peace," he emphasized.
Wednesday, Feb. 27, 1959
Chancellor Murphy called for America to face the "essential realities of 1952 instead of 1900" in order to formulate a long range foreign policy. He maintained that all the people of the world are becoming each others' neighbors in a real way.
"friendship cannot be bought with dollars," he contended. People need the knowledge necessary to allow them to convert the material resources under their feet, he said, more easily than the United States should be exporting its knowledge rather than its dollars." he added.
The Chancellor contended that the real problem is "not to be so naive as to think our capital alone can raise the world's standard of living." The solution, he believes, lies in an expanded program of exchanging students, teachers and experts in many technical fields.
There is no question as to rearming, he said. "When there is a mad dog loose in the world, we should buckle on our armor. This buckling of on the armor is only part of a long range policy," he added.
However, to prove we are not being hypocritical, Chancellor Murphy said, "we must follow our ideals, continue to minimize our prejudices and critically determine if we are to continue to support certain imperialistic practices of eastern nations."

Flow Of Ideas By Education, Lecturer Says
The migration of ideas is better explained by education than by war, Dr. Gilbert Highet, professor of Latin at Columbia university, said last night in the second lecture of the humanities series in Fraser theater.
One part of history is the study of groups in competition and war, Dr. Highet said. "But the human race cannot have come so far with just competition."
There are more people on earth than ever before, he said. And with the increase in population, more social and technological progress is being made. The explanation of education is not to replace political or economic ideas of origin, but to fill them out, he added.
"History moves faster by education than by war. The periods of civilizations are the periods of the flow of ideas throughout the world. Civilization is not only material wealth, it has to have a meaning."
"The chief justification of conquest is the civilization of the conquered in which techniques or ideas are taught." This is one of the conquered teach the conquered such as the case of Christianity, he continued.

New Science Building Will Be Ideally Equipped For Study, Research
Bv RON KULL
The building will include laboratories, classrooms, research facilities, new apparatus and a huge scientific library. It will be divided in three parts to accommodate the needs of physics, and pharmacy departments.
An opportunity for greater scientific expansion will be given to KU in 1953 when its new science building, laid on its first stages of construction, is completed.
The east wing and lower half of the center section will be the chemistry section. The six story wing will house laboratories for graduate and undergraduate courses in organic, inorganic, analytic and physical chemistry.
In connection with these laboratories are balance rooms, apparatus rooms and supply and record rooms. Adequate space has been allotted
for offices for the senior staff, chairmen and laboratory directors. Study rooms will be available for graduate students.
The basement under the east wing and the center section will contain apparatus for research in radio chemistry. There will be a small maintenance shop with facilities for instruction in glassblowing.
The pharmacy department, located in the upper half of the center section, will have more laboratory and lecture space.
The top floor of the center wing will house a new scientific library with two study rooms. This library has three classrooms in the three departments.
The physics department will be
Four basement rooms will be kept at a constant temperature for research and storage of perishable supplies.
This section will be equipped with lecture rooms, laboratories and the equipment to teach atomic physics, optics, electronics and other divisions of physics. Twenty-five research rooms will be dispersed throughout the wing.
located in the five story west wing of the new science building.
The basement will contain most of the heavy equipment. A three million volt electro-static generator will furnish power for experimentation.
Electrical distribution throughout the wing will be made from a main switchboard. The switchboard is 20 feet long and has approximately 1,000 outlets and circuit breakers.
Also in the basement will be an extensive machine shop, a feature that is sadly lacking in Blake hall, the present physics building.

Don Hull, college senior and president of his class, will be the master of ceremonies at the queen presentation during the dance intermission.
Phil Kassebaum, college junior, and Helen Maduros, education senior, are co-chairmen of the dance. Virginia Mackey, journalism junior, is in charge of publicity, and Blaine Scheideman, education junior, is in charge of ticket sales.
Although the two classes have had dances together in previous years, they have never had a name-band.
Tickets for the dance are $1.50 each. Spectator's tickets are 75 cents each.
Husband-Wife To Present Recital
Raymond Stuhl, cellist, and Mrs. Alberta Stuhl, pianist, will appear in a recital at 8 p.m. today in Strong auditorium.
Mr. Stuhl, associate professor of cello, studied with the Hungarian virtuoso, Paul Hermann. At the Royal Academy of Music of Berlin he was a member of the cello class of Prof. Hugo Becker.
Mr. Stuhl returned to the U. S. in 1930 after a five year period of study, concerts and teaching in Europe.
He was chairman of the cello department of the Conservatory of Music in Kansas City. He played two seasons in the Philharmonic orchestra under Karl Krueger.
He has specialized in introducing and promoting interest in the stringed instruments by playing at the orchestra and high schools in the southwest.
Mrs. Stuhl, former instructor in piano at the University, did her advanced study at the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia.
The recital is open to the public.
Folk Songs Feature Carillon Program
Four English folk songs will be played on today's carillon program at 7 p.m. by Ronald Barnes, carillonneur.
They are "The Keeper," "Driving Away at the Smoothing Iron," "Hares On the Mountains" and "Blow Awake the Morning Dew."
Other numbers on the program include:
"Angelus" by Massenet, "The Old Refrain" by Kreisler, "Sonata for a Musical Clock" by Handel, Theme and Variations for carillon by Rusterholtz and "Abide With Me" by W. H. Monk.
The play, by Christopher Fry, has been called by critics as his "most richly rewarding" one to date.
A New York Herald-Tribune critic referred to the play as "a poetic fantasy of sheer delight which brings back to the theater the eloquence and excitement of illusion that it should always have."
In the play an arrogant world-sick ex-soldier meets a girl who is called a witch because she wishes to live her life independently. They meet by accident in the small market town of Cool Clary, England, in the 15th century, "more or less, or exactly," as Fry says, and have a hard time explaining themselves to the authorities and to each other.
Astonishment is the key to much of the humor and the engrossing progression of events. The ex-soldier's insistence upon being hanged for crimes he did not commit has a series of savage comic twists, while the lovely innocence of the lady condemned to burning confounds even those who are convinced she is a sorceress. The surprise of their joint predicaments has been exploited by Fry with a wealth of pertinent dialogue.
Bob Allen, KLWN announcer, will play the role of the soldier, the sardonic Thomas Mendip, who wishes for death so fiercely that it is clear how deeply he cares for life..
Mary Lou Jukes, graduate student, will play Jennet, the lady of the title, who dines with her peacock and is sainer than anyone surrounding her.
Lynn Osborn, college senior, and Dee Price, fine arts freshman, will play Richard and Alizon, the lovers in a subsidiary marriage. Mrs. Molly Krival, wife of Arthur S. Krival, instructor in English, will play Margaret Devize, flutter-brained sister of Mayor Hebbie Tyson, played by George Herman, instructor in English.
Sam Sebesta, education junior, will be seen as a drowsy violin playing chaplain, and Allen Crafton, professor of speech, as Matthew the rag and bones man whose supposed death causes all the complications.
Others in the play include William J. Sollner, assistant instructor of English, as Humphrey Devize; James Clausen, college junior, as Nicholas Devize, and Dan Palmquist, instructor of speech, as Edwin Poinnay, Joseph Lewis, steward, education senior, will be the prompter.
Harold Harvey, instructor of speech, built the set.
