Burge Likes Tough Job
By JEWEL,SCOTT
Koncan Staff Welfare
It's been a rough year, Frank Burge says, but he speaks more about the good times than about the bad ones.
Burge is the director of the Kansas Union, a job he says will continue to the demanding position. "We work with people, buildings and products."
Before coming to the University of Kansas in 1952, Burge was the assistant director of the Iowa University Union.
"Today's climate puts a lot of demands on all Union administrators." Burge said in an interview Thursday.
"People working in the Union should be patient, be without prejudice—or not show the love—and control their emotions."
Burge firmly believes the staff said he was particularly pleased by the number of qualified students on the staff and com-
"Their tremended input and contributions, and their analysis of the way things are." Burge's words help in making decisions.
Burge added that he enjoyed seeing the creativity with which students became involved and produced results in activities.
The Union operating board and executive committee are ultimately responsible for the preparation of the Union, Burge said.
As director, Burge said it is his job to help the board's wishes and concepts of what the union should be. He lists his other responsibilities as a supervisor, engaging a staff and assisting in the organization, planning and executing the projects.
The Union is the location for 12,000 functions a year, Burge said. He estimated 10,000 people passed through the Union on Thursday but held another one when persons were asked to use the Union Tuesday night.
He and his staff, Burge said. are faced with new problems every day.
"I think the night night and day I ever spent went after the nurse," she said. "As the shock wore off, our first concern was how to get back
During the fire, however, Burge said he was mainly concerned about the safety of people. This was followed by a "deep understanding of how to complete cooperation and efforts on the part of the student body."

Burge said he would never forget that students the hardest to obtain the ability save the precious and irreplaceable 'art object in the world'.

the Union.
Finally, Burge said, he was pleased that the Union executive committee had a complete insurance program.
"Our service has not been as good since the fire." Burge said. He added that they are building back into pre-fire condition and totally useable by May.
Students have changed since he first came to KU, Burge said. He sees today's students as more

If the people who decide these things let us have problems, our students are able to drink responsibly. Our students have already demonstrated many times that we are able to drink responsibly.
Socialist Airs Views
Socialism as a viable alternative to the capitalist system was explained by Nancy Cole, the executive secretary of Young Socialist Alliance party. Her Wednesday night speech at the Kansas Union sparked a likely discussion on the attributes of socialism in the United States.
"The Youth Socialist Alliance is a revolutionary movement," Michael Levin remarks. "Our aim is to transfer this system into a socialistic one."
Most of the people present agreed that changes need to be made to question was raised about why students fought for Miss Cole said the YSA for holding capitalism was no big deal, and many majority of the people in the U.S.
"Socialism is the only alternative to the system we already have," she said.
Although Miss Cole said she thought the revolution could only be accomplished by the year 2000 she said she felt that the socialist party was best organized to initiate and coordinate a revolution because of its structure.
"The YSA has the potential to be the party to lead the American reorganization is that of a democratic institution after the democratical attack on the bolshevik party which overthrew the Russian government," she added.
"The reasoning behind putting up candidates is to present alternatives to the capitalistic system and also enables us to air our ideas."

One way the party is working to solidify the black freedom movement, women's liberation movement and the antiwar
Miss Cole said she felt that nationalization of industry and resources and the elimination of the family institution would change the changing of people's values that exist in this capitalistic system.
"We want to change the whole social structure so that people can govern themselves," Miss Cole said. "As soon as you change institutions in power you can change your attitudes and ideals."
"I should think that party

played in the revolution," said
Joseph McNeil.
The greatest arena for the party to appear its views is the annual national debate, which often felt that approximately 2000 national delegates would be held in New York. A conference being held in New York Dec. 16 would convention provide a forum for discussion and an arena for debate, and the convention for the party in the forthcoming year. Delegates are elected in the primary election to serve on the members but the convention is open for anyone to attend. Each delegate will represent national nations are invited to address group with last year's nation, France, Australia and England.

These people got together once, twice or three times a week to prepare for the trip. They travel Portuguese, Spanish or Russian in the various cafeterias in the city.
For about 60 students and faculty members lunch at the Kansas Union this semester involved more than just eating
For example, the Russian Table met every Monday, Wednesday and Friday in the library. About 15 people, including
Gerald Mikkelsen, assistant professor of Slavic languages and literature at the University of the Russian Table, said that the purpose of the program was to help students develop an opportunity to improve their Russian or to keep it in practice.
Lunchtime Popular for Languages
Spanish and Portuguese, said that a language table such as the Portuguese table presented a teacher's faculty, could meet informally.
The Portuguese table met every Friday from 11:30 to 1:30 p.m. in Alcove D of the Union cafeteria.
Antonio Vieira, a native Brazilian and instructor of
Native speakers on KU's faculty often participate in the discussion, which leads the conversation. Sometimes they discussed the topic with a guest speaker.
Theodore Johnson, head of the French and Italian department, said the language tables offered with the students and faculty must be tuned to tone up their language and to get together informally
The French table met ever,

College Assembly to Vote On Five Bylaw Amendments
The faculty of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences failed to pass the proposed bylaws of the Assembly by a vote of 191 to 190.
Delbert Shankel, associate dean of the College, said the Representation and Bylaws Committee would propose five
The interviews are necessary because no mechanism is available to monitor the interview for conducting mid-term elections. Also, with only the short term remaining, the interviewers will be people willing to continue next year.
Applicants Questioned
Applicants for five vacancies in the Senate were quizzed concerning Thursday night. They were questioned what they may be doing to devote Senate and plans they had to better represent their graduate education.

amendments at the next assembly meeting Dec. 15.
The fourth amendment reads.
The number of teaching
instructors exceeded 10 per cent of the total
regular faculty. The number of
teachers exceeded 35 per cent.
The first amendment would give the government power to supplement its membership with appropriate representation from minority members.
Amendment two would be added to the section dealing with elected committees. It reduces the power of students on the committee and the tenure committee from the originally proposed bylaws.
It reads, "In the case of the Promotions and Tenure Committee, the graduate student committee shall consist of two members of the committee shall participate in the formulation of general policy, but shall not participate in the discussion of individual cases or in the final vote."
The third amendment also comes under the section dealing with elected committees. If a committee is appropriately represented on the committees of the College as a result of normal election procedures, its subject to approval by the College Assembly, supplement their membership with appropriate from minority groups.
the Assembly shall equal the number of full-time equivalents at the rank of assistant instructor on the budget of the College."
"A motion to change the bylaws requires a two-thirds majority for passage." This is the final amendment proposed. It will be the number of votes necessary from a simple majority.
The fourth amendment changed this to the number of graduates elected to the assembly equal but not exceed 10 per cent of the total faculty. This cuts both the number of assistant instructors and the number of assistant instructors by considering them as a group and reducing the overall number.

What Did Reading Dynamics Do For You ??
Lea Hirschberg

"What's everybody's main hang-up about reading? Seems to me it's confidence—feeling that you're not getting much out of it, that everyone else has got it over you. After taking Evelyn Wood, I know I can do it, and that feeling is absolutely worth the course. It goes without saying that you learn better study habits from the course, too."
