KU Advisory To Discuss Athletic Post
A five-member search committee to recommend candidates for athletic director at the University of Kansas will meet Wednesday to set up guidelines for the selection and to decide on the necessary qualifications for director, according to Henry Shenk, professor of physical education and committee chairman.
The committee appointments were announced Nov. 21 by Chancellor Raymond Nichols, after the resignation Nov. 15 of current athletic director Weade Stinson. Stinson has not yet indicated when he will leave the post.
Serving on the committee with Shenk are Kenneth Anderson, professor of education; Skipter Williams, Lawrence businessman; J. Roy Holliday, Kansas City area businessman; and David Dillon, Hutchinson senior and KU student body president.
All were chosen by the KU athletic board, Shenk said.
Shenk said that the committee has been instructed to work closely with John Eberhardt of Wichita, chairman of the athletic board, and Charles Oldfather, University attorney and faculty representative to the Big Eight Conference.
As chancellor, Nichols will review the recommendations and make the final approval.
Although the qualifications for the job haven't been formulated by the committee, Shenk said that several people had suggested some criteria.
Nichols said that the new athletic director must be able to hold the confidence of the faculty, student body and alumni, and demonstrate some managerial talent.
"The new athletic director must be dedicated to quality in our athletic programs just as we strive for quality in our academic program," Nichols said. "He must have demonstrated ability in public relations because he must be able to communicate with alumni wherever they are located."
Shenk said the committee would be looking for experience in similar jobs as the head of research.
There has been no deadline for the committee's recommendations to the chancellor, but Shenk said that Nichols and I would complete the job at the earliest possible date.
"We hope to get it done before the first of
summer," she said. "We don't fast as we can and still make a good choice."
Shenk said there already had been "quite a number of applications" for the position, but the committee had no way of knowing how many finally would be received.
Shenk said that suggestions for a new athletic director would be welcome, and could be submitted to any committee member.

Liquor-by-Drink, Bingo Still Suffer From Sting of Kansas' WASPs
By WENDIE ELLIOTT Kansan Staff Writer
In 1948, the legislature was given the power to regulate the sale of intoxicating beverages and open saloons were prohibited.
According to Paul Wilson, professor of law and a lifelong Kansas resident, the "open saloon" clause probably was inserted as applied the United Dry Forces (UDP).
The rationale behind Kansas legislation may remain forever a mystery. However, a Protestant morality, traceable to frontier settlers in the state laws both recent and time-honored.
The good or evil the people of the frontier experienced was in direct relationship to the tribe. It contributed it made to the community. Fraternity riders could draw a crowd, Shelton said, by putting overtones on those things that were important to the community and 'to be fighting against them.'
Although church and state are constitutionally separate, legislation frequently follows the moral convictions of the people.
Kansas is a Protestant state dominated by Methodists (numbering 250,000) and Presbyterians (numbering 160,000) heritage. The Mennonites, known for their strong conservative moral convictions, have had an influence in a state dominated by Baptists; to Robert Shelton, assistant professor of theology.
"A traditional way to be a good witness is to have a "devil" to witness against. The Kansas frontier devils were alcohol and gambling," Shelton said. "Both were a potential menace to new, unstable communities."
"They were strong in Kansas and the people who drafted the amendment were interested in drafting a law not too offensive to the UDF," Wilson said.
Now, most people over 21 are eligible to buy drinks in Kansas through membership in the K-Cup program.
Two years ago, Kansas rejected an amendment that would have eliminated the farm owning program.
If the amendment had passed, "the legislature would be free to provide for

Wilson was hesitant to place the failure of the bill wholly on Protestant morality or Christianity.

Nixon to Announce Cabinet Plans Today
CAMP DAVID, Md. (AP)—President Nixon, promising to begin announcements of sweeping Cabinet changes today, said Monday that neither Melvin R. Laird, John B. Connally, treasury secretary, would be joining his second term administration.
Talking to a dozen newsmen at his Camp David retreat, Nixon said Secretary of State John Kerry had no government service. Laird had made no secret of his plans to vacate his Pentagon post but there had been rumors that he was considered for some other high position.
Nixon said that as he worked to reorganize the federal bureaucracy, the biggest personnel cuts would come in the White House staff.
The chief executive said many of the personnel cuts in the White House would be achieved by assigning what were formerly White House functions to Cabinet members.
This seemed to be a broad suggestion that his reorganization program encompasses a new organizational chart that would tie us more directly to the presidential office.
Nixon, who did not permit newmen to question him, volunteered that neither Mr. Bush nor Mr. Obama would accept him.
Rockefeller of New York would be joining his second-term administration.
He said each has told him he would prefer "not to take a permanent job at this time." He said Connally and Rockefeller would be available for temporary assignments.
Becoming philosophical, Nixon said that in a second term, the 'tendency' for an actor to be perceived as charismatic could have been

The South Vietnamese had sought the meeting and the White House had indicated from the outset that there would be consultations with the Saigon government following Kissinger's most recent Paris trip.
Meanwhile, South Vietnamese paratroops claimed victory Monday in fighting to expand their front in the northernmost province of Quang Tri.
Nixon has conducted at least four meetings with Kissinger since the beginning of the Vietnam War on Saturday night. Ziegler said Nixon would meet Wednesday with Nguyen Phu Duc, who was bound from Saigon as a captain of the Vietnamese President Nguyen Van Thieu.
CAMP DAVID, MD. (AP)-President Nixon conferred two Monday with Henry A. Kissinger on Vietnam peace talks, but he did not speak at the event no clue as to what points were discussed.

The plans were submitted to the regents' building committee last month. earlier this year, the board recognized feasibility of the project with a bond council. The project is to be financed by the sale of 644 million in revenue bonds for the last session of the Kansas Legislature.
The expansion, which is expected to be the single biggest building project in the state, will include the simultaneous construction of a six-level $5.2 million basic force building and a seven-level $44 million outpatient and inpatient treatment facility.
The treatment facility will include emergency areas, an added 280 patient beds, family practice, operating rooms, intensive care and head trauma units plus many other outpatient and inpatient sections and services.
Dr. William O. Rieke, vice chancellor for health affairs, predicts that construction on the basic science building and the clinical building will begin early next year.
Although Chancellor Raymond Nichols will represent KU at the meeting, John Conard, director of university relations, said he did not think any major requests would be made concerning the Lawrence campus.
Black Endorsed for HUD
TOPEKA (AP)—The Kansas chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People urged President Nixon Monday to appoint former Attorney Samuel Jackson, director of the Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Jackson, considered a strong possibility to run for Congress in Kansas' 2nd District a year ago before removing himself from consideration last January, now is number 10 on the DID chain of command. His title is assistant secretary of urban development.
George Romney, former Michigan governor, announces his resignation as chairman of the Republican National Committee.
The state NAACP chapter agreed on a resolution urging Jackson's appointment at its state convention in Wellington a week ago and it released the resolution here
Monday through William E. Richards, staff director and legislative agent.
part "The Kansas State Conference of Branches, NAACP, has noted the exceptional professionalism, dedication and superior performance of Samuel Jackson in the position of assistant secretary of urban development.
Jackson's exemplary achievement has been a source of pride and inspiration for all kings.
"Be it resolved that the Kansas State Conference of Branches, NAACP, commend Samuel Jackson for the splendid record he has achieved while serving as assistant secretary of urban development, HUD, and—
"Be it further resolved, that this
**Organization endorse and commend Samuel**
W. H. Johnson."
Nixon, President of the United States of America, for consideration and appointment as secretary of housing and urban development."
Romney said he was leaving HUD to create a concerned citizens' coalition because of what he called the limitations in the nation's political process.
The resolution was forwarded Monday to Nixon and U.S. Senators James B. Pearson and Bob Dole, both Kansas Republicans, by Richards.
He said the American public must be informed on the real political issues which he described as those concerned with "life and death." He said the real issues were not discussed during President Nixon's successful race for reelection because both the Republican and Democratic Sen. George S. McGovern, feared it would cost them votes to do so.
