'Kansas Needs Laurence'
Bumper Stickers Boost Chalmers
They have a petition they want you to sign.
They have bumper stickers
"We don't like the idea of the Regents giving the Chancellor 90 days to clean up the University. He's a good guy.And we like him.He has been doing all he can to help the students. We, in turn, want to help him."
--and badges they want you to buy —or get one free.
The stickers and badges say,
"KANSAS NEEDS LAUREENCE."
That's the idea, they say. They also say:
"We don't like the idea of the Regents giving the chancellor 90 days to clean up the University. He's a good guy. And we like him. He has been doing all he can to help the students. We, in turn, want to help him."
Catchy!
"They" are Glenn Birdgman, Overland Park junior, and Kae Enright, St. Joseph, Mo., senior
Birdgman said the two were intent on boosting the popularity of Chancellor E. Laurence Chalmers, Jr. Birdgman interrupted the interview to offer a bumper sticker for sale with his left hand while he pushed the petition towards a student who had stopped at his table outside the Kansas Union.
The stickers and badges are also emblazoned with a snappy bow tie, characteristic of the chellorer's usual dress.
The petition was the brainchild of Birdgman's partner, Kae Enright.
The pair have collected 3,000 signatures so far, and say they
A KU law student will soon release a report on the availability of legal advice to state-supported colleges and universities.
Law Student Prepares Study of Legal Advice
John Hampton of Lawrence has prepared a report on legal advice available to state-supported universities "because any University of this size finds itself without legal advice." He said that the Kansas Attorney General's office, which now handles legal affairs for the University of Kansas, is not close enough to KU administrators.

End War...
Clean shaven and scrubbed young men and women who had lobbied all summer for the "end-the-war" amendment sat hushed as Sen. George McGovern, D-S.D., the co-author, made his final plea for approval.
"This chamber literally reeks with blood," he said. "Every Senator here is partly responsible for that human wreckage at Walter Reed and Bethesda Naval Hospitals and all across our land--young men without legs or arms or genitals or faces or hopes.
"There aren't very many of these blasted and broken boys who think this war is a glorious venture. Don't talk to them about national honor or courage."
The McGovern - Hatfield amendment would have cut off all funds for U.S. operations in Southeast Asia next April 30 and set a Dec. 31, 1971, deadline for withdrawal of all U.S. troops.

Birdgman explained that he had financed the purchasing of the stickers and badges, and was asking a 25 cent contribution so that he could "break even." But, he added, if any extra money is collected it will be used to purchase a public system.
will have at least 10,000 by the end of the week to present to the Kansas Board of Regents when the Board convenes again on Sept. 8. The petition reads:
especially in his handlings of the situations arising on the campus during the Spring, 1970 semester, has helped to PREVENT the University of Kansas from becoming 'another Berkley.' We also deplore any accusation that the chancellor mishandled recent events in Lawrence, as these
"We, the undersigned, support Chancellor E. Laurence Chalmers in his administration of the University of Kansas at Lawrence. We feel that Chancellor Chalmers,
"I think that the service we've had has been excellent," Hampton stated, "but you don't have time to go to the Board of Regents each time something has to be reviewed. . . . Attorneys should be present to advise administrators."
About 80 per cent of the 50 state-supported universities and colleges that Hampton contacted replied to his inquiry. He said that at least half of those schools were represented by the state attorney general's office or someone associated with the attorney general of that state.
Reading Skills May Be Improved Through Service Offered at Center
"Of those, most have someone on campus," Hampton stated. KU has no representatives of the Kansas Attorney General on campus.
For students who wish to improve their reading abilities and study techniques, the University of Kansas Reading Center provides such free services.
Hampton declined to make a specific recommendation for KU, nor did he indicate what system the report would endorse when it is released to William Balfour, vice-chancellor for student affairs.
A third year law student, Hampton is completing his report unassisted after research this summer. The tentative release date is Thursday.
Offered through the School of Education in Bailey Hall, the services are taught twice during the semester for a six weeks period. All four services are free but carry no credit.
One course is Developmental Reading I in which students meet in small groups to discuss and acquire skills in such areas as the efficient use of study time, reading effectiveness in subject areas, listening and note-taking, and preparing for and taking examinations.
Developmental Reading II is designed for students who have the potential to increase their speed by paced readings, reading accelerators, timed readings, reading tachistoscopes and controlled readers.
Individual assistance in reading skills is also offered plus guides for study methods and clinical reading services.
Members of the Black Students Union at Lawrence High School will have several of their demands from last spring enacted this school year.
