The birds met at mid-field, eyed each other, shook their heads and returned to their jobs of keeping the crowd cheering.
Homecoming's Relevancy Let by HOPE, Benefit
Homecoming festivities are past, but the theme of relevancy may not have died.
As a part of this year's effort to
increase coming toward more
relevant audiences, the group
began with a benefit concert,
proceeds going to Headquarters.
Dick Wintermute, executive director of the Alumni Association estimated the contribution at about $200. He attended 1000 room events during the Friday night benefit at which four bands played.
Several living groups also help decorations or supplemented displays with donations to charities and projects to help the community.
Alumni could be seen driving through campus, walking through the Kansas Union or visiting the living groups.
The pace of homecoming
weeks is a record-setting with the registration of incoming alumni, Editors' Day activities, the 1923 football team and class of 1924, and discussions by Chancellor Palmermers and Watson, Law, city manager
Many alumni were among the approximately 275 persons who registered for Kansas Editors' T. Beek, left, editor of the Hotton Recorder, had been named to the Kansas Newspaper Hall of Fame.

Workshop Will Include 'Life Games'
Role-playing will be one method used by the Commission on the Status of Women in a workshop designed to help senior high school women cope with the joys of life beyond high school.
The Commission's "Beyond High School" program will sponsor the workshop Nov. 7. Its goal is to help women to think about their upcoming women, according to Colette Kocour, Kenilworth, Ill., director, chairman of the program.
Women will be given roles to act out during the "Life Games" portion of the workshop. Each woman will be assigned a life game and then respond to that life. The woman then will be asked to solve the conflict.
After "Life Games," the women will be escorted to lunch in different living groups including apartments. This will acquainted you with the informal life they will lead at a university.

school seniors a chance to
speak with women with various
experiences at the University of

A panel of three commission members will then discuss human sexuality and women's rights.
Roger Stanton, president of the class of 1960, said he did not think things had changed much on the surface and he said he thought students today were "more sophisticated on the surface and more intense" than before.
Another feature of the workshop will be a film on KU campus life, compiled from film clips of the past 30 years.
The only comment the president had about his classmates at their first reunion was that they looked younger than he. Helping to carry out the theme of relevancy for homecoming
was the presentation of the OWE award at half-time of the KC Knicks on Saturday afternoon. The award, presented annually to an outfielder in the regular class, was received this year by James L. Koevinger, associate president of the presentation of the award replaced the traditional crowning event.
In addition to those from Kansas, there will be high school women attending the workshop in Moines, St. Louis and Chicago.

Growth and Change Mark Free U.
Kancon Staff Writer

It started more than a year ago, offering no degrees, no fees, no grades and "education for the hell of it." Since then the Kansas Free University has grown from 20 to more than 50 classes, which offer alternatives to the structure of the University of Kansas.
The idea for an independent
thesis was conceived in 1987 but the
plans fell through and the idea
was dropped until the spring of
2001.
Four people, Luke McLeary, Carlos Rumbaut, Topea senior, Carlos Bumbait, Martha senior, and Mehmet Gurkaynak, Bigtura, graduate student, visited the free university in Manhattan, the University for Applied Sciences, a free university in Lawrence. The idea took form at an organizational meeting in Sep. 1986 in the Kansas Union. The meeting was ducted by the four man formation committee and was attended by representatives of the Manhattan community and the university of the new school were discussed.
No grades, no degrees and no fees were advantages of the new school which were stressed. One teacher said, “the reward is the pleasure of learning and the sheer joy on her own life over your own life and work.”
The Free University has been registered and recognized by the Student Senate since its formation. The University from the Senate which covers costs of stenitis, stamps and postage is also registered and correspondence. Although registered with the Senate, the Free University is not sponsored by the Senate.
"No one is enrolled in the classes," McCleary said at the first meeting. "We measure our success by the interest the people come show in the course, not by the number of people who are there."
The first office of the free school was held in 1907 W. 7th, the basement of the Hotel Elldridge. During the first semester, the school moved to a rafted range from mysticism and yoga to astrology and a sunset wetland.

Under Averill's direction, the Free University office was moved from the peace center to the House. 1181 La. A mailing list was compiled for sending out letters on activities of the school and the office began to receive letters in October free universities in the country.
The Free University developed a newsletter which was published on occasion by members of the school informed on major changes of schedule, course content, which were being offered. The newsletter, it was said, which means a combined operation or action such as a group of organs
