Ex-Chancellor To Be Heard On KLWN Sunday
The voice of former Chancellor Deane W. Malot will be heard for the first time here since he left KU when his talk "America the Profligate" will be aired by KLWN Sunday morning at 9:45 on the Sociology on the Air series.
Mr. Malott will be the tenth speaker in the weekly series sponsored by the department of sociology and anthropology.
Although the ex-KU chancellor will not appear in person, his speech has been tape-recorded especially for the KLWN broadcast. His talk will run a little more than 15 minutes.
Speakers this semester have included Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy, Dean Paul B. Lawson and such college faculty members as John Ise, Seba Eldridge, Esther Twente, Lawrence Bee, E. Jackson Baur, E. Gordon Ericksen, Nino Lo Bello, and Carroll D. Clark, chairman of the sociology department.
The Sociology on the Air series has been going since last March when the program was inaugurated. It is the first time a college sociology department has sponsored a regular series of talks over a commercial station.
After Mr. Malott's talk, the next two speeches in the series will be given by J. Eldon Fields, associate professor of political science, and Carlyle S. Smith, assistant professor of anthropology, during the new year.

Arthur Capper, Ex-Senator, Dies After Extended Illness
Topeka—(U.P.)—Arthur Capper, U.S. Senator from Kansas for 30 years and president of a vast publishing empire, died here last night at the age of 88.
"Senator Capper will long be remembered for his distinguished and unselfish service to his state and nation," Landon said. "But he also will live long in the hearts of many people for his kindly thoughtfulness and his helpful work through the Capper Foundation to restore children to health. He loved people."
Miss Julie McKee, his private secretary for many years, and Henry Blake, vice-president and general manager of Capper Publications, Incorporated, were present at the bedside in January 1980 when his wife's relatives also were nearby.
Former Gov. Alf M. Landon, GOP presidential candidate in 1936 and still a leader in Kansas politics, paid tribute to his dead colleague.
Capper, who built his political and publishing fortunes from a start as a printer's devil on a Topeka newspaper, lapsed into a coma in his suite at Hotel Jayhawk Wednesday afternoon and died at 9:29 p.m. Funeral arrangements have not yet been announced.
Mrs. A. L. E. Eustice of Evanston, Ill., a sister, was his only survivor. His wife, Florence Crawford, died in 1926.

Assistant Attorney General James M. McInerney said the grand jury will meet after the Christmas recess, raising the possibility that future indictments might deal with charges of bribery and fraud in getting loans from the Reconstruction Finance Corp.
