CORE Asks For Revision Of Civil Rights
Governor Frank Carlson told a delegation from the Committee on Racial Equality Thursday that he "would have something to say on racial discrimination in my address to the next legislature."
Robert Stewart, C.O.R.E., chairman said today that the governor told the delegation that he is "against all forms of segregation." "It is my belief that 95 per cent of the citizens of Kansas are against segregation. After all, this is the state of John Brown," the governor added.
The delegation visited Governor Carlson to urge that the recommendation of President Truman's committee on civil rights be followed closely in Kansas.
A resolution calling for enactment of a new civil rights law for Kansas was submitted to the governor by C.O.R.E., which claims that the present civil rights statute is not enforced and is inadequate.
"The governor agreed that the present civil rights law contained certain inadequacies which allow circumvention of it. He suggested that we submit resolutions to the platform committees of the Democrat and Republican parties when they meet in August," Stewart said.
"He also recommended that we make a documented survey of violations of the civil rights law and present a factual report to the legislative council in December."
C. O.R.E. members who saw Governor Carlson were Frank Stannard, Carolyn Covert, Wesley Elliot, Frank Webster, Willard Singleton, Joseph Erown, and Stewart.

A
Dogs For Cream In Game Line-Up
Students planning to attend the R.L.D.S. Halloween party should meet at 7 tonight at 11th and Massachusetts streets.
If you want ice cream at the football game tomorrow, take it yourself.
Witches, Cats Prowl Tonight
"It's funny, but at 70 degrees people buy ice cream." Rhetan A. Smith, Y. M. C. A. concessions manager, said today. "If the temperature drops to 65, they don't buy it."
Witches and black cats with mysteriously illuminated eyes will creep into a number of organized houses tonight heralding the arrival of Halloween.
Smith said that hot dogs will be sold instead of chili. Coffee, candy, and cokes will also be on sale.
R. LDS Hallowe'en Party
Fifty men are needed as salesmen in the stands, Smith said. Anyone who wants to work at the game can report to the west side of the stadium before the game. Salesmen get 15 per cent of their gross sales as pay.
Scavenger hunts, masquerade ratties, dances, and hayrides have been planned to again be alive the seasonal frolic and carefree spirit.
Before World War I and in the '20s Halloween meant an annual all-University masquerade party that was usually held in Robinson gym. No other organized parties were allowed on this night.
There in Robinson gym amid const- stalks, jack-o'lanterns, pumpkins, new moons, and black and orange wizard and ghostly decorations, the free costume parties were as gay and jelly as the music played.
The parking committee has solved a variety of problems confronting commuters but the complaint of a student using zone "D" behind Marvin hall has defied solution.
A student, who had just given his car a glistening polish, returned for the vehicle only to find birds roosting in overhanging trees had infringed on the rights of man and spoiled the glossy finish on the car. The question is: "Can the parking committee find a solution to the problems of parkers in the Ohzone?"
Student Finds Parking Strictly For The Birds
All solutions are welcomed.
Granz Rants, Students Cheer, And Hoch Rocks
Ey CHARLES L. O'CONNOR
Hoch auditorium rocked last night to the "distorted and animalistic" strain of "The Swarthout Blues," as Norman Granz's Jazz At The Philharmonic orchestra played to a most enthusiastic audience. Judging from the audience's reaction, jazz is still popular with K.U. students.
With such stellar jazz instrumentalists as Coleman Hawkins, Howard McGhee, "Flip" Philips, J. C. Heard, Ray Brown, Hank Jones, and vocalist Helen Humes, the Granz organization presented a program which was well worth the price of admission. Few students were dissatisfied, although at least one fine arts student was seen to leave during intermission.
The first set was sparked by "Flip" Philips' driving tenor sax and J. C. Heard's very solid drum beat. Coleman Hawking was featured after intermission, and although he still plays good sax, he seems to have fallen behind the times in his interpretation.
Vocalist Helen Humes stopped the show with her rendition of "The Blues" and was brought back for several encores. Her "E Baba Leba" was really "out of this world!"
The remainder of the concert featured solos by the rest of the artists. Hank Jones' piano stylings, which began where Delius and Dutessy left off, were particularly interesting. The program ended with "How High the Moon," with J. C. Heard at the drums.
Hoping For Breaks, Aggies Are Ready
The yell booming off the classrooms at Kansas State is "Don't Ask How—Just Watch and See." That is how the Wildcats feel about Saturday's game here.
The Aggies have some artillery to fire at the Jayhawkers and the biggest gun is 150-pound Bill Church, quarterback. Church has passed Kansas State to 404 yards in their six games. On the receiving end there is Clarence Branch, one of the Eig Six's best.
They don't know how they are going to topple the undefeated Kansas team, but they are sure they will. Church Is Big Gun
Three Wildcats Out
Another Wildcat star of the Nebraska game was Jim Stehley, sub
So far the Wildcats have not shown much of a rushing offensive, but they did perk up somewhat against Nebraska. Led by Dana Atkins the men from Manhattan bulled through the hefty Cornhusker line for 150-yards, their best rushing show of the season.

Church will find Kansas ready and
willing to pass it out. The Jayhawkers have three flingers among the top 10 conference passers, Ray Evans, Lynne McNutt, and Bill "Red" Hogan. To catch the trio's toes there are Otto Schnellbacher and Marvin Small, also among conference leaders. KU Misses Two
Two Jayhawkers will not be able to play in tomorrow's game. Joe Crawford, right guard, and Dick Bertuzzi, right half, are still suffering from leg injuries.
Ray Evans has recovered from his eye injury and Dick Monroe, Leroy Robinson, and Floyd Baker are also ready. The Jayhawkers are in their best physical condition of the season.
If the weather co-operates the crowd is expected to top the 20,000 men forty-seven fathers, brothers, and sponsors of Kansas University squadmen will watch the game from the bench.
Saturday's game will be the 44th meeting of the Wildcats and Jay-hawkers. Kansas has won 27 games, lost 14, and three were ties.
