KU Not Informed of Alleged Suit
Chancellor Raymond Nichols said Sunday night that the University of Kansas has received no notification from the Kansas Commission on Civil Rights about an alleged suit charging the University with sex discrimination.
"We received no notification from the commission. They have not notified us about any charges." Nichols said, "I talked with him and he said the lawyer, and he hasn't heard anything either."
Peggy Scott, Lawrence senior and press contact for the group of women filing the complaint with the commission against the University, said she had received no further word from the commission concerning the charges.
"I haven't heard anything more from them since the letter I received Nov. 3,
SAIGON—Enemy attacks across South Vietnam declined sharply, the Saigon government said. The war continued as fiercely as ever. For the fourth straight day, 825s concentrated bombing attacks on North Vietnamese positions in the dimilitarized zone.

JAKARTA, Indonesia - Indonesian leaders are struggling to head off what could be the country's worst crisis since the fall of Sukurao. A disastrous drought, coupled with insufficient stockpiling, has left the nation's 125 million people short of their only major staple, rice. Government prices for rice and other goods in the Indonesian market and emergency orders for 800,000 additional tons on the tight international rice market may produce enough grain to hold current prices.

Truman Better
KANSAS CITY—Harry S. Truman, battling old age and a tired heart, was removed from the critical list Sunday and was able to smile and tell a nurse he was feeling better. Doctors said the 88-year-old former president's heart condition had improved and that he was more alert, although his overall condition remained serious.
In addition to noting improvement in the condition of Truman's heart, doctors said he had a slower and stronger pulse and a stable blood pressure.

Robert Dole, Republican national chairman, plans to meet with President Nixon Monday morning to discuss party matters, Dole's plans and other subjects, the senator's office announced Sunday.

saying that charges had been filed," she said.
Scott said she was not surprised that one she from the University had notified of
"I understood the commission would not notify the University before they conducted their investigations because the University had a chance to cover things up," she said.
"We went ahead and released the publicity about the suit because we figured that they wouldn't be able to conceal anything since all the figures that we based our charges on were matters of public record."
According to Scott, the group which filed the charges released the information about the suit because they wanted students to be trained in their actions before the end of the semester.
"Also, since the Affirmative Action Plan is on Chancellor Nichol's desk now, we wanted him to be aware that there was an opportunity for improvement and effectiveness of the plan." Scott said.
Shririe Gilham, director of Affirmative Action for Women said she did not think that she was able to make a valid judgement on the value of the action against the University.
"Fortunately, we have a number of agencies through which individuals can file complaints," Gilham said. "This group has many cases that they have that right and they're exercising it."
"I think forging the Affirmative Action
A complaint filed with the Kansas Commission on Civil Rights by a group of University women initiated the commission's alleged legal action. The complaint names the University of Kansas, Chancellor Raymond Nichols and the Board of Regents in charges of salary and promotion discrimination.
The Campus Advisory Committee for the selection of a new chancellor met officially for the fifth time Saturday in a 4% hour session to continue discussion of nominees.
According to Richard Von Ende, acting executive secretary, subcommittees of the main group presented recommendations on how to the full committee for consideration.
Advisory Group Holds Session
"The subcommittees were formed to facilitate the processing of the nominees." Vines said.
Van Ende reported last Thursday that the committee had received 175 nominations. The committee will meet again Jan. 6, 2014. The committee will nominate for nominees at that time. Van Ende said.
A complaint that students are crowing the public health services, particularly the Douglas County Health Clinic, will be discussed at the monthly meeting of the Public Health Board 5 p.m. Tuesday in the First National Bank Building.
plan has been a lengthy process and some people are becoming impatient," she said.
"I can understand why they might want to go through other avenues."
Board to Hear City Complaint
Dr. Raymond A. Schwegel, director of Watkins Memorial Hospital and member of the Health, said the discussion would ensure continuity in County Commission meeting last month. At that meeting a Lawrence resident said she was impressed by the facilities of the county as much as those here.
Schweiger said the citizen status of the student was the same as that of anyone else.

"As far as I can see, the students have the right to use any public property that they choose, it doesn't bother me one bit to have them use any public facility." Schlegel said.
The new student health center, which is scheduled for completion by Fall 1973, will take some of the load off of the city and county facilities, Schweger said.
Schwegel said that he thought that the complaint was uncalled for.
"I plan to be rather blunt about it if the situation arises," he said.
"If they'll give us time enough to let the cement set, we'll be running it up here," said Schweiger. "I for one would be willing to geology all day if that what is needed."
