ASC Stops Own Pay; No Jurisdiction Decision
The All-Student Council Tuesday passed a bill removing the a-month salaries paid to the A.S.C. president, secretary, andreaser.
"We need economy on the Council," Donald Dirks, College sophomore, said. "This is a good place to exercise it. It's time we quit sponging off the students at the University."
Warren Andreas, College junior, protested the bill on the grounds that many positions of responsibility on the campus are paid positions.
"The editor of the K-book, student directory, and Jayhawker are all paid," he said. "Next year the A.S.C. president and other officers will have to do an increasing amount of work. They should be paid."
The form in which the bill was passed was contested by Wilson, who said the bill should be in the form of an amendment to the present bill. The Council voted to send the bill before the Student court to see if its form is proper.
The Council discussed appointing committees to check on student

housing and restaurant meals in Lawrence, but took no action. Chester Lewis, College senior, moved that the A. S. C. president appoint a committee to be approved by the A.S.C., whose members would look into student housing in Lawrence, handle complaints from students, and take any actions they saw needed. This motion passed, but amid general confusion from the members of the Council, the motion was rested by Lewis to allow the committee to decide its own function.
The Council tabled the restated motion until a committee could talk to the Housing office and the State Housing inspector and report to the Council.
Lyle Anderson, College sophomore, moved to set up a similar committee to investigate restaurant conditions in Lawrence. The motion was defeated after a heated discussion of the Council's true powers. Andreas called such a committee "out of the Council's jurisdiction on the basis of the Constitution" and James Logan, A.S.C. president, replied, "Anything in the interests of the students is under the jurisdiction of the A.S.C."
Wilson moved to submit this interpretation of the purpose of the A.S.C. to the Student court for a decision.
"I'd like to know whether the Council can consider every matter which concerns students or not." Wilson said. "It's time the matter was cleared up." His motion to appeal to the Student court failed.
Logan told Council members that he discussed the raise in student fees.
the secretary of the board of regents. The board hated to raise the fees and fell the raise might keep students out of K.U., but the legislature had "laid down the law" to them, Logan said.
"The board also blamed the disproportionate raise for out-of-state students on the legislature," Logan said. "The legislature thinks that Kansas taxpayers should not have to educate out-of-state students. Since the legislature will not be in session for another two years, I feel there is nothing we can do about the raise in fees."
At the suggestion of Exter, the Council members went on record as unanimously opposing the recent raise in fees.
The A.S.C. president made a recommendation for co-chairmen for the Campus Chest drive next year, but the Council members could not agree on the qualifications needed for this job and did not approve the recommendation.
The Council also:
1. Instructed the publications committee to hold a special meeting to interview students for editor, assistant editor, business manager, and
assistant business manager for the K-Book, student directory, and K.U. calendar.
2. Voted to co-sponsor with Student Union activities the Jayhawk Nibble for new students during Orientation Week next fall.
3. Ratified the appointment of the following students to the Student Union operating board: Chester Lewis, Robert Casad, graduate students; Joe Wimsatt, College junior; Donna McCosh, education junior; Vicki Rosenwald, College freshman; and Gene Rogers, engineering freshman. Logan and Christine Johnson, College sophomore, were automatically appointed to the board.
4. Heard the first reading of a bill to put six members on the disciplinary committee instead of the present five. The members will serve a year term, but three new members will go in at the first of the fall semester and three at the first of the spring. This is to insure three old members on the committee at all times. The bill will have its second reading at the first A.S.C. meeting next fall.
Red Offensive May Begin On Friday
Tokyo (U.P.)—Chinese and North Korean Communists threw probing attacks at Allied lines all across Korea today. One Allied commander said the Reds' all-out offensive may begin by the light of the full moon on Friday.
Chinese Reds recaptured Inje, highway hub five miles north of the 38th parallel and 25 miles inland from the east coast, Wednesday after one of the heaviest Communist artillery barrages of the war.
pass by. The show is directed by Miss Elaine Kutschinski, instructor in physical education. Mrs. John Kress, graduate student, has arranged the music. Reserved tickets are 50 cents.
Allied officers said the Red stabs were attempts to find a weak spot in the U.N. lines. The Reds attacked most persistently in the Inie area.
Most of the enemy attacks met rock-wall resistance. The Reds struck in groups of 100 up to two battalions, and used hand grenades, automatic weapons, and light artillery. Only the South Koreans back slightly. Other United Nations forces threw back the assaults.
Maj. Gen. William Hoge, commander of the U.S. Ninth corps, said the second round of the Chinese spring offensive is imminent. He and his troops will "welcome it," he said.
Dance Fraternity To Present Musical
"The Lammpost" adaptation from the story by Hans Christian Anderson will be presented at 8 p.m. today and Thursday in Fraser theater by Tau Sigma, modern dance fraternity.
The setting for the musical and the numbers is a street corner in New Orleans at the time of the Mardi Gras. The plot concerns an ancient lamppost and the people who pass by on the street.
The first assault in the spring offensive last month also began by the light of a full moon. The Reds hit with 300,000 troops. They are reported to have 300,000 ready for round two.
The U.S. Eighth Army communique said 2,890 Reds were killed or wounded in the stepped-up fighting Tuesday which apparently set the stage for the Red assault Wednesday.
The communique said the Reds were massing troops north of Uijongbu, on the road to Seoul, and throwing probing attacks against allied lines on the central front.
Allied planes broke through the cloud cover farther north and attacked the Communist buildup area near Chorwon. B-29 Superforts dropped 80 tons of bombs by radar on Sariwon, big Red supply base northwest of Seoul, and Hamhung on the east coast.
Mrs. Mable Hanson, pianist, will play her graduate piano recital today at 8 p.m. in Strong auditorium. The public is invited.

Money to furnish and equip the former University high school building as a modern social center was given by Roy A.

UN Considers Ban On Shipments To Red China
Flushing N.Y. (U.P.)—The United Nations, prodded by the U.S. Congress to slap an arms embargo on Communist China, moved today to widen its proposed ban on material shiromits to the Red regime.

its 12-nation Korean sanctions committee, will receive a five-power proposal to stop shipments of needed railroad equipment to the Chinese.
Sir Gladwyn Jebb, Britain's chief delegate to the U.N., explained the British attitude on trade with Red China last night in a major speech before the New York City bar association.
Britain, at first reluctant to join in any embargo against the Chinese Reds, aligned itself completely with the U.S. in supporting a strategic ban on shipments into Peiping's territory.

Salt Lake City (U.P.)-Govemor J. Bracken Lee wants Utah draft board members to ignore the selective service's "Bright Boy Law."
Because of clerical error or misplacing of mail, some faculty members may have failed to receive their invitation, Prof. Elmer F. Beth, chairman of the planning committee, said.
The new Faculty club will be organized at a meeting of charter members in the clubhouse at 8 p.m. Thursday, May 31, to consider a draft constitution drawn by Prof. M. C. Slough, associate professor of law and approved by the planning committee. Election of officers will also be held.

Governor Blasts 'Bright Boy Law'
Llee told a luncheon gathering of 200 draft board members that if he were in a position to do something about the regulation he would abolish it. He said the optional bill was "not in keeping with the principles of this country."
The governor's address yesterday immediately followed a talk by Colonel George J. Irvin, representing Selective Service headquarters. He spent the majority of his time on the platform lauding the theory of exempting men who show an aptitude for college through the tests.
