Survey of Kansas Schools Says KU Students Succeed, Earn More
By JEANNETTE HARTMAN
Kansan Staff Writer
O or 11,000 surveys sent out in May, 673 (or 58 per cent) were returned, according to a report entitled, "An Appraisal of the University of Kansas." The Seniors at the University of Kansas."
The survey showed that KU seniors generally were younger and had higher grade averages as compared with other seniors surveyed. Their parents had higher incomes and higher levels of education than those of the rest of the group.
The survey was conducted by two KU faculty members, Kenneth E. Anderson, professor and dean emeritus of the School of Law, and a constantistant vice chancellor for academic affairs.
KU SENIORS rated extracurricular life offered by the institution higher than did the rest of the seniors questioned. They described their preparation in broad experience in the humanities and in developing a personal sense of responsibility "reducing social injustices" stronger than did other seniors in the survey.
However, they rated the descriptions, intellectual, snobbish and dedicated, as more appropriate to their university than realistic or realistic, friendly and conforming.
A survey of 10 per cent of the 1971-1972 senators at the six colleges and universities in September 1972 showed that KU seniors differed from senators at other schools not only in background but in the rating they gave to their university.
In contrast with other seniors, KU seniors

Escorts to Calm Late Walkers' Fears
According to O'Rourke's outline of the program, its primary purpose will be "to teach the students the campus to any given location on or near the campus. It will serve as an obvious yet indirect deterent to the problem of raps, robberies and sex offenses at KU."
Last week, O'Rourke presented his tentative plans for Operation Escort to William Balfour, vice-chancellor for student affairs; Shirley Gilham, director of Affirmative Action for Women; and Mike Thomas, director of Traffic and Secur-
By CHRISTINE CANNELLA Kansan Staff Writer
The program originated when David O'Rourke, Overland Park senior and first sergeant in Pershing Rifles, became aware of the need for such a service and wanted to help. He organized 25 men from Pershing Rifles, commonly E-7, to be escorts.
Coeds of the University of Kansas who fear walking alone at night, will soon have a way to begin their journey. Beginning the first day of the spring semester, Jan. 15, any coed will be able to dial one of two telephone numbers and receive a secret to accompany her to any location on campus.
Coaches will be able to request an escort between 6 p.m. and midnight by calling the Pershing Rifles office in 642-7894. Two men will science building calls in that office. O'Rourke said that they could study there if there were no calls.
AFTER MIDNIGHT, coeds will be able to arrange for an escort by calling O'Rourke's home telephone number (842-9073). O'Rourke or one of his roommates, also members of Pershing Rifles, will take calls at this number.
O'Rourke said that the escorts would drive and walk the women to their destinations. Twenty cars are available for the operation. According to O'Rourke, the driver must be a certified electric magnetic signs on the outside or inside of the car. The caller will be given a description of the kind of car and of the person who is coming to pick her up. The driver will be asked to give a description of herself or some identifying characteristic.
O'ROUREU SAID that each caller would be given a questionnaire by the escort so that the escorts could receive some feedback on the operation.
"They can throw it away or fill it out and mail it to the office of Affirmative Action where it will be checked by either Shririe or one of her staff members," O'Rourke said.
O'Rourke said that escorts also would have walk-talkies with them to record the time of pick up and as a security measure in case something should occur while they were out. The walk-talkies will be monitored by a man in the office.
O'ROWREK SAID that while it was logical to think that women were going to use the service, it was by no means restricted to them. He said that the program was not intended to infringe upon the bus or taxi services.
First Indian Hall of Fame To Be Housed at Haskell
The greatest of Indian athletes are being immortalized at the Indian Athletic Hall of Fame. The Hall, which was inaugurated on Nov. 25, is being established at Haskell Indian Junior College, according to Wayne Postoak, Haskell Athletic coach.
The Hall, temporarily housed in the Haskell Student Union, was originated by Robert Bennet, when he was federal commissioner of Indian Affairs before 1987. He later became assistant commissioner of Indian Affairs and former Olympic gold medal winner.
Postak said that the Hall was under the direction of the Haskell board of directors, which approved Haskell as the site for the development of its clients were very positive to the selection.
Jim Tharp was inducted into the Hall of
Fame for his achievements in football and
hockey.
Postask said that a separate building for the Hall was planned. A campaign to raise funds is under way. The money is to be raised by the university grants. They now have only $5,000, said Postask, but they have a list of more than foundations to which they can request funds.
The coaching staff at Haskell has formed an unofficial committee and has done a lot work involved in the project, he said. Poster on the walls of the problems, but that they could be overcome
The Bureau of Indian Affairs has assisted in publicity for the Hall and sometime next semester Sports Illustrated magazine feature article on the Hall, Postak said.
"We want to build a structure that the Italian people can be pround of." Poostak said.
Because this was the first year of the Hall, an exceptionally large number of athletes, 15, were inducted into the Hall. In a normal season, five additions could be expected, Postak said.
Louis Tewanima, track and field star, who was twice a participant in the Olympics and was selected for the Olympics by Jim Thorpe, was inducted, Joseph N. Guyon, also inducted, was an all-American football player at both tackle and halfback. He played for the National Football Hall of Fame in 1966.
Also inducted was Albert A. Exendine,
outstanding as a football player and as a
coach. He was 1906 all-American and
was also named as football coach at
Oklahoma State.
hailed by the king of Sweden as the greatest athlete in the world.
Allie P. Reynolds, one of the greatest of the modern pitchers, was also inducted. He pitched more shutouts between 1945 and 1952 than any other pitcher, and was president of the American Association of Professional Baseball Clubs 1969-71.
Hearing Set For Claimant Of Money Cache
The cache, said by KB officials to contain between $10,000 and $25,000, was found Oct. 5 by a University of Kansas employee while he was inspecting farm implements.
An extradition hearing will be held Thursday in Wyndotte County Magistrate Court to determine whether one of the plaintiffs of the large cache of money found on the floor of Lawrence will be returned to Nebraska to face charges for drug violations.
THE SERVICE will be supported by Pershing Rifles, according to O'Rourke, and they do not intend to ask for funds from any other campus organizations. He said that the members of Pershing Rifles would continue the service regardless of the demand.
The man, Bradford D. Charles, Rt. 2, Lawrence, is wanted in Pawee County Neb. on charges stemming from a recent investigation of a marijuana processing and selling ring there, according to Mike Donohue. Pawee County district attorney
"If the demand increases we will have the bodies to fill that demand; in other words, our supply will not dwindle if the demand increases." O'Rourke said.
Plans are being made to place posters explaining the operation and giving the telephone numbers throughout the campus. These posters will be displayed by telephones and at every information center or service counter on the campus.
A LOG OF CALLERS will be maintained, which will include the time the call is received, the names of the caller and escort, the name of the building, the time leaves the building, the time he reaches the
coed and the time he returns to the building
O'Rourke said that the log would indicate three things. First, it will guage their efficiency and the amount of time it takes to get from one place to another on campus either on foot or by car. Second, they will be able to determine from the log which days are weak the service is most used and third when the service is most used. From these indicators, the numbers men and cars needed for a particular night and time can be determined.
O'Rourke said that the only problem remained was the question of liability. O'Rourke now believes that the escort would be responsible to the woman while she is being escorted. Although he said it was pessimistic to think that such a thing could happen, O'RourKe told him that Charles Oldfather, University of Kansas matter, next week to discuss the matter.

rated career placement services, institutional food services and health services as lower in quality than the surveyed group did. They also rated teaching assistants (in contrast with regular staff members) as lower in quality.
A similar survey of 1967 graduates from six state schools, conducted by the Master Planning Commission on Kansas education and completed in September 1972, showed the same basic results in background and appraisal of education by KU graduates in comparison with other graduates from other state colleges and universities
THE SURVEY of 1967 graduates showed that:
about 70 per cent of the persons from KU had graduated from a Kansas high school as compared with about 79 per cent for the total group.
about 68 per cent of KU graduates found
positioning compared with 57 per
cent of the total group.
—the annual income of KU graduates was higher than that of the graduates of other schools
51 per cent of the KU graduates said that they had become involved in efforts to correct social injustices, compared with 40 per cent for the entire group.
"STUDENTS WHO come to KU relatively tend to be bright, high motivated people," said Hutchison, "To an extent they seem relatively satisfied with their four years here, and their expectations seem to have been met.
"This would lead us to believe that we're having success in meeting the needs of the student population."
Hutchison said that in comparing the statistics some consideration of the schools involved should be made.
Gas Shortage Not Expected To Affect Lawrence Area
About comparing the incomes of KU graduates with those of other schools, he said, "One must keep in mind that this is a University that produces the lawyers, architects, engineers pre-maed students of our professional schools graduate people and these people tend to have higher pay compared with teachers, for example."
A natural gas shortage in Kansas and Missouri will probably not affect the Lawrence area. W. J. C. Salome, vice manager of Gas Lawns, also manager of Gas Lawns Ga. Co., said Friendship.
Salome said that a gas shortage was occurring in Missouri ahead, but that it would not change service here unless the weather becomes exceedingly cold.
Even then, Salome said, only large industries, which are designed to use other sources of power such as fuel oil, would be affected until gas pressure was restored.
He mentioned two alternatives for natural gas, the importation of liquefied gas and the possible extraction of hydrogen from the ocean.
"This shortage will probably occur every winter for the next 15 years," said Salome, "and I think we'll see more restrictions on gas usage in industry in the future."
everyone, because they are long distances from natural gas storage areas.
few in Kansas have been asked to curtail the use of natural gas, according to Charles Rambo, executive vice president of Gas Service Co. He said that the gas supply to some industries was cut in half for a few days about two weeks ago.
University Building and Grounds officials report that they have not been asked to switch to other fuel, and are usually never asked to until after the first of the year.
"This shortage of fuel is not only limites to natural gas. It is a problem in almost every industry and includes many types of fuel."
He said that if an industry was forced to resort to other fuels for a long period of time, the products they produced could have a higher price.
Salame said that major industries such as the University could switch to oil fuel in a oil tank when, when asked to, and that the only drawn is more expensive than natural gas.
