East and West stapled a languid confrontation this week in Spencer Art Museum. Richard Linker, a Lawrence resident took a look at the work of one of his students to see what religion.
The two ewed each other in silence for some time like two heads of state at a summit conference. Buddha's somewhat oscillatory temperament may be a key factor.
KUMC Expands, Attracts Students
The most serious shortages of professionals in major occupation group in the United States are in health services, William O. Hobe, vice-chancellor of Kansas administrative officer of the University of Kansas Medical Center, said this week.
He said that in November of 1969 the School of Medicine had been designated the Regents and Kansas Legislature a supplemental budget request that described the steps necessary to school to graduate more physicians.
The request called for a revised
curriculum so that medical students could graduate in three years instead of four, creation of a new department of family medicine, and provision of more competitive salaries for interns and resident physicians to attract them into Kansas and the development of medical facilities at campus and hospitals in Wichita, Topeka and Kansas City.

Museum Might Get Grant
Snakes Exhibited in Museum
A coveted grant of $10,000, one of 16 in the nation, will be made to the University of Kansas Museum of Art, if it can provide that amount in matching funds from private sources, according to the KU News Bureau. The National Endowment for the Arts, an agency of the United States, provides the provincial fund in its museum purchase program, which requires that the recipient buy at least two works with the money.
Observatory Open Friday
The University of Kansas Museum of Natural History now has a live snake exhibit. Two clutches of snake eggs are about to hatch and a rattlesnake and two copperheads will soon give birth, the University of Kansas snakes, mostly non-venomous, are in the educational display.
Because of rain during the observation period last Saturday, the Lindley observatory will be open from 9 to 13:30 p.m. Friday for another session. Between 200 and 250 people view the planet Sept. 1. The observatory, on the roof of Lindley Hall, opens through room 500.
Tennis Club to Organize
RIEKE SAID he hoped to admit a class of 200 medical students who would cause a strain on facilities. Laboratory and classroom space is exhausted, and the 550-bed complex at the Medical Center is understaffed.
An organization meeting of the women's tennis club will be held at 3:30 p.m. today in 122 Robinson.
Because of these problems, the
Club Taking Applications

She probably will be in the University of Virginia Hospital until the end of the week.
Medical Center must depend on affiliations for bedside experience and it must eventually be provided with clinical facilities, he said.
ARE YOU CONCERNED ABOUT MATERNITY BENEFITS?
Since the new Student Hospital coverage does NOT pay maternity benefits, you may be interested in learning of a plan that DOES include Liberal Maternity Benefits.
MARRIED STUDENTS
This new insurance plan provides for liberal maternity benefits AND other hospital medical and surgical costs at a very moderate premium.
These apartments, with a capacity for 400 to 600 students, will be built on property owned by the K State. Endowment programs are launched from the state. They are scheduled for use next fall.

The building details will be subject to University approval, whether built by the Endowment or by an unlicensed contractor. K-State will lease the land to the builders and will work with the complexes, McCain said.

MANHATTAN—A seven per cent increase in university enrollment. Universities are said to have some students to be temporarily housed in the University Ramada Iin and in dorm basements and offices, but because they couldn't find the type of housing they wanted, K-State President James A. McCain
Staff Writer
"We have the most unpredictable housing situation of the state schools because of Ft. Riley," he said. "A withdrawal of trees from the fort would mean apartment buildings in Manhattan."
K-State in Housing Crisis
This housing shortage is not new at K-State. It has occurred at the beginning of previous semesters. K-State officials are now working on plans for student housing that should alleviate the problem.
McCain added that another reason for building apartments instead of residence halls was the popularity of apartment living.

The proposed apartments would be built especially for students in college and faculty companies also are being considered. Should
If state land is leased by the Endowment Association for apartment construction, the Board of Regents and the state government will lease. Otherwise, the Endowment Association can go ahead with the construction on its own property. McCain, who will present the
He said that because of a citywide campaign by the University, many students without housing at the start of the semester would soon be housed in private homes. At the beginning of the semester, students with dorm contracts but no rooms were slowly taking the places of students who were out of town.
Pittsburgh State College has had a problem of more residence fees for students and expenses Pittsburgh requires all single students under 12 to live on
"The amount of dorm space here is more in balance with the desks and computers in the school," he told an informal meeting of the K-State Student Senate Friday night. "If the dorms were built more modern, then it would be required by law to see that these dorms are full enough to meet the needs."
Traffic accidents during the nation's three-day Labor Day weekend claimed 615 lives. The total was in the lower end of the National Safety Council's advance estimate of between 800 and 700 deaths during the holiday weekend on Friday to midnight Monday.
Traffic Toll 616 For Weekend
The figure was four more than for the same holiday period last year, but well under the record 688 in 1968.
McCain, who will present the plan to the Board of Regents
Sept. 17, believes that additional residence halls are not the answer to the living space lam.

Regardless of whether the Endowment Association or a private contractor will be in charge of the construction, floor and roof framing, a location and builders are announced by the University
The apartments could take as long as three years to complete if K-State is directly in charge of funding the construction, McCain said. The Endowment Association, a private contractor could have the additional housing ready for occupancy next fall.
Both the University Ramada Inn and Royal Towers, a large student apartment, complex built by the Endowment built by the Endowment
Association. The Endowment association directly employs builders or contracts to have the building done.
Next fall is the critical time for having the additional living space, McCain said.
If a private contractor is in charge or the building, the contractor uses his own capital to build. If he retains ownership of the property, and the contractor transfers the apartment title to the University after he has paid the capital plus a reasonable profit.
"I think enrollment is approaching a plateau," he explained. "If we have the space next year, we probably will have more students. Otherwise, enrolment will slack off."

TRANSCENDENTAL MEDITATION
As Taught by MAHARISHI MAHESH YOGJ
The practice of transcendental meditation is a process of direct experience rather than one of intellectual analysis. As one practices this technique, the mind spontaneously experiences increasingly refined and more charming levels of thinking. If then "transcends" the most subtle activity of thinking to a state of pure awareness, the source of thought. Through transcendental meditation, pure creative intelligence automatically unfolds in every individual, enabling one to work more effectively without accumulating stress and strain. Easily learned by anyone, TM is the key to integrated unfoldment of human resources, and to increased enjoyment in life through expanded awareness of one's environment. Every aspect of life is naturally improved.
