Abrams Returns to Vietnam
WASHINGTON (AP) - Gen. Creighton W. Abrams, sworn in Monday as the Army's top soldier, immediately was dispatched to Vietnam for a fresh look at the war he had pressed over for the past four years. The announcement was a surprise, even to high-ranking Army leaders who Pentagon officials said were unaware of the trip. "Everybody's puzzled," said one official. Sources said the decision to send Abrams back was made by Melvin Laird, secretary of defense, only hours before the sweeping-in ceremony.
U.S. Urges IBM Break-Up
NEW YORK (AP) — The government announced Monday its long-range goal in an antitrust suit against International Business Machines Corp. That goal is to break up the vast multibillion dollar firm into separate, competing units. To replace the protection of the total domestic and international computer systems facilities of IBM into several separate, independent and competitive balanced entities capable of competing successfully in domestic and international markets with one another and with other domestic and foreign competitors."
Parallel Bars Aid Wallace
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - Despite the paralysis in his legs, Gov. George C. Wallace is able to "brace walk" between parallel bars, his doctor said Monday. Even though he is able to "brace walk", Dr. H. Hutchinson said Wallace still has no movement in his legs. He inches onward on the parallel bars by pulling himself with his arms and letting gravity carry his lower limbs along. He may be able to walk again, the doctors have told him, with crutches and leg braces. Whatever it takes, Wallace says he will walk.
Pharmacy Students Sign Petition Against Laboratory Dress Codes
By CAROLYN OLSON Kansan Staff Writer
A petition to strike down the existing dress code for fifth-year pharmacy students in the school was considered at 7:30 a.m. Wednesday by the Student Advisory Committee of the School of Pharmacy.
The petition was signed initially by the Neil Abel, Clay Center fifth-year student, 21 of the 88 of his pharmacy students
The existing dress code for the pharmaceutics III laboratory requires students to wear ties and white lab jackets.
The petition states that since a teacher does not have to wear a tie to class in the School of Nursing, no one should be required to wear them either.
ABEL ALSO stated in the petition that it was highly unfair to grade a person on what he said, to be deprived. He said he was referring to an episode when Hugh Cotton, associate dean of the School of Pharmacy, allegedly told Able "to get your class) or wear a uniform."
Abel said last Thursday he inferred from talking to Cotton that he would flunk the course if he did not wear a tie.
Cotton denied that he had made the remark and said students
David Dillon, Hutchinson senior and student body president, asked the Association of University Residence Halls (AURH) President's Council at their meeting Monday for suggestions of options to present University busing service.
Dillon asked the council members, as representatives of the residence halls, if they were satisfied service was of value to the halls.
He said that the Lawrence Bus Company was in financial trouble because bus fares weren't covering the operating cost of
$9.50 an hour for each bus.
Currently the difference between the fare receipts and this cost is being paid by the Student Senate.
AURH Asked to Support University Bus System
Dilion asked the council if the AURH could help pay part of the operating costs since hall had been built as beneficiaries of the service. But he made it clear that the Student Senate would continue to support the system at least in the near future, whether the AURH helped out or put it down.
Eventually, he said, either another means of support for the bus system would have to be
"It is just expected in n. professional world for a person to wear dress appropriately, but shouldn't the students dress appropriately here in the lab?"
HOWARD MOSSBERG, dean of the School of Pharmacy, said that he was worried a student would flunk a course for failure to be in accordance with medical standards.
AURH Executive Council President Alex Thomas, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, senior, was not present as a quorum said that it would be more beneficial for the hall presidents to return to their halls and survey the busing needs of their halls than to talk about it then. He will be there for AURH's HR President's Assembly meeting get some direct feedback.
"We can't continue on the basis we're on," he said. "The budget won't take it, the students won't pay for it."

should "dress professionally in the pharmaceutics lab."
He said there was not a written dress code for fifth-year students, but it has just been traditional to wear a tie and tuck衣 since 1885.
The Student Advisory Committee will formulate a recommendation to present to the fifth grade students their 11:30 a.m. Wednesday class.
Mossberg said the class would discuss the dress code and make a recommendation.
"I WANT to visit with the
children of our nieces and

said." We want some suggestions
for the appropriate mode of attire
for the day.
"My major concern is to keep the students confident in the educational process and not worry about the dress code."
He will consider its recommendation, with the recommendation of the Student Ad-
risky Committee before making a decision concerning Abel's petition, he said.
The pharmacuescles lecturer is Larry Akire, a clinical instructor at the University of Chicago Medical Center. Akire said he did not tell Abel he would funk him.
Brunn had sought the injunction on the grounds that the commission had not followed the guidance of the judge, making him an offer for the land.
S. R. Brunn, a Kansas City man, owns the land. The trace of land is a strip approximately 100 feet wide and 1,000 feet long, along the river bank.
"The injunction concerned the manner in which our court-appointed appraisers advised the judge that he should respect his property." Peyton said. "It's a procedural problem. We will just have to revise our procedure."

Cheryl Beaty, Kansas City Mo., senior and a member of the Black Theatre, said most black directors who would accept the offer had made plans for the coming year and were not available.
The theatre could not hire anyone outside the University, Beauty said. Because of the tight budget all positions were frozen. It would be difficult to black faculty members available to take the job of director.
To bring in someone from outside the group, you require tugs that the theatre group does not have, according to Dr. Wheaton, a member of the group.
The section of K-10 between K-7 and Kansas City is already under construction.

Black Theatre is not operating under any greater budget strengency than any of the other Experimental Theatre programs.
"Almost the whole program is having money problems," Davis said. "The theatre is on a tight budget."
Injunction Prevents Construction on K-10
Peyton said the project had been suspended temporarily while the legal problems were solved.
By CHUCK POTTER Kansan Staff Writer
The delay results from a permanent injunction issued Oct 13, 2015 to Johnson County District Court. The injunction prevents the State Highway Commission from changing the southeast corner at the junction of K-10 and K-7 in the commission used to acquire the land.
A white faculty member was chosen recently to direct the Black Students Center at the University of Kansas. The appointment was a joint decision by the students in the theatre and the administrative advisers.

White Prof to Lead KU Black Theatre
Members of the Black Theatre have expressed concern at the appointment of a white director. Efforts were made by the ad agency to students to find a black director for the group, but they failed.
"Several issues have been raised concerning this development," Peyton said, "and he court had decided to deal with them."
