William E. McGovney, chairman of the summer program committee, has invited all Protestant student groups of the city to take part.
Plan Summer Youth Groups
The Student Religious council is planning religious activities for inter-denominational youth fellowship during the summer session.
According to McGovney, fellowship and student interests will be the basis for this program. This is the second year that the Student Religious council has functioned in this respect.
Its primary purpose is to fill the gap that is left during the summer months in most denominational youth group programs, McGovney said. This program, will have the benefit of inter-denominational fellowship and the sharing of ideas, he added.

'Goal Of Modern Dancer Is Expression Of Personality. Through Body Movement'
The modern dance classes begun at the University about 10 years ago are very often confused with a different type of dance, ballet.
This was the opinion of Miss Elaine Sellicovitz, modern dance instructor, who was recently interviewed by a University Daily Kansan reporter.
"The goal of modern dance," explained Miss Selicovitz, "is to let each person develop his unique personality by creating combinations of bodily movements for whatever he wishes to express, whether it be a lynching, a psycho-neurosis, or baseball. The movement may be weird, graceful, powerful, or grotesque.
quine.
"The purpose of ballet is toward beautification of certain steps and positions which are the same for a period of years. Steps in the ballet dance as presented before spectators are exactly like the exercises which the dancer practises."
Ballet in its original form was
strictly technique and had no relation to what it accompanied, but it has gradually become more meaningful in recent years because of the influence of modern dance, she added.
"The modern dancer, like the bullet dancer, must go through a definite training period," continued Miss Selcovitz. "He must take exercises of limbering, stretching, bending, and aerial work to obtain a movement vocabulary just as a student of speech must develop a speech vocabulary."
Guest Day Is May 15
Miss Sellicovitz explained that the two dances may overlap in that there is a limit to the number of techniques, or exercises, which the human body can do. During his training period the modern dancer may rehearse the same techniques practiced by the ballet dancer, and then use them in his dance as basic movements for control and poise.
K. U. Guest Look day, which is May 15, is the time when high school seniors from surrounding areas are to be guests of the Jewish Student Union at the University.
