McGovern OKs Fund Probe
WASHINGTON (AP) — Democratic presidential candidate George McGhee said Monday he would welcome an investigation of his fund-raising operation. McGhee also said the speech he makes today on his revised welfare and tax reform plan may be as important as any he will make in the campaign. On another matter at a news conference, McGhee said his campaign received $1.8 billion from his campaign, or less than the budget July Democratic convention and last Friday. The suggestion that McGhee's campaign financial records should be investigated was made Sunday by Maurice Stans, head of finances for President Nixon's re-election campaign.

Pollution May Harm Genes
NEW YORK (AP)—Two biochemists from New York University Monday reported laboratory evidence suggesting that sulfur dioxide, a major component of air pollution, can disrupt normal genetic mechanisms.

Jayhawker to End Magazine Format
By WENDIE ELLIOTT Kansan Staff Writer
Production of the single-
volume 1973 Jayahawer yearbook
is under way and on schedule.
It will be released by John Bailey.
Whitewater senior.
Bailey and business manager Rick McKernan, Salina senior, have been organizing the Jayhawker since last May, when they were named to the positions of Jayhawker advisory board.
The 1973 Jayhawk will be published as a single, hard-bound volume of about 400 pages. It will be shipped to many locations scheduled for May. This differs from the traditional Jayhawk magazine distributed periodically.
"We THINK the single-vOLUME format is superior to the magazine format." Bailey said that he had seen it published for costs of publication, which appeals to McKernan, but we also cut a lot of useless redundancy and this helps raise our product awareness across the level. This is important to me."
This year the Jahayawkier will feature expanded coverage of University government and administration, SUA, and for the purpose of reflection, a special presentation on world events, Bailey said.
Sports coverage will be expanded to cover all intercollegiate sports, including women's sports.
THIS YEAR'S senior section will include both Hilloppers and Hallteachers, along with the senior pictures and activities.
DelCloud Studios of Kansas City will be the official Jayawkier photographer and will take senior pictures on campus by appointment. Information concerning the senior section will be sent to the seniors later, Bailey said.
All senior pictures that are to appear in the 1973 Jayhawker must be held on November 1, one-dollar display given on the senior picture sitting fee to those seniors holding class cards and yearbooks, Bailey
The 1973 Jayhawker will be published in a b-12 by 12-inch format. The cover, designed by Mary Ann Casem, Washington, D.C., senior and art director for the University of Arkansas, with a sand-grained dark blue bindings with the University Seal binding with the University logogram.
YEARBOOK SALES during enrollment have not been established and are purchased in the Jayhawker office in the Kansas Union between 10:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. in response to the supply of last year's edition available for people who failed to pick them up during the enrollment period.
Bailey said he was pleased with the staff he had selected.
"I intend to keep it small so we can work well, he said. "We should have a secretary worked before, who will handle the load while our freshman and sophomore staff members take care of the time consuming small jobs."

This summer Whitmer developed the youth program with the aid of a test group of 12 students from Pine Forest with him four times a week.
