Men Need Big Brothers
Women students aren't the only ones who need a shoulder to carry on.
Oilies who need a shoulder to cry on.
The men may not admit it, but
they, too, turn to counselors for help.
They may not get dramatic about
their problems, but they do seek advice.
WOMEN and studies are just two of the many problems which the
. . . . a shoulder to cry on?
counselors in men's dormitories have to reckon with
The counselors have to attend two meetings a week, on Mondays and
Thursdays, answer questions, be "big brothers," act as a referral agency and about once every two weeks take over in the evening as assistant to the head resident. For this they are paid $45 a month.
TO BE ELIGIBLE for a counselor's position a student must have juniqi, senior or graduate student standing, although there have been cases where a fre-hman or sophomore have qualified.
There is no mention of any required grade point average, but a counselor has to have good enough grades to enable him to have enough time to do his counseling duties and his own school work.
Interviews are held with Dean Coan, the assistant dean of men; J. J. Wilson, the director of dormitories; and E. Gordon Collisor of the Guidance_Bureau. These three select the counselors.
Counselors spend an average of from two to twenty hours a week counseling students.

Visitor Discusses Admission Policy
An administrator from a Ugandi African college said the broad admission policy of KU could lead to a lowering of standards "if you do not take care of the bright chap."
A. Tattersall, from Makerere College in Kamla, Ugandi, was referring to the KU policy to admit any graduate of any Kansas high school.
He commended KU for its gifted students program and said it meets the needs of bright students.
16. Tattersall also said there is no integration problem at his college
He and his wife today are concluding a three-day stay at KU, in the 4th week of their scheduled 8-week tour of 26 U.S. universities. The trip is sponsored by the Carnegie Corp. to provide Mr. Tattersall with
Early U.S. Flag To History Group
M. M. Booth, of St. Helena, Calif., and 1917 graduate of the KU Medical School, gave the flag last night to the society.
The Kansas State Historical Society has been given a United States flag with 34 stars which was made on board the Union battleship Vermont about 1863 during the Civil War.
The only time the flag was flown was in 1884 at the first election of Grover Cleveland as president.
Kansas was the 34th state admitted to the Union. The historical society has two other small 34-star flags. The flag given by Dr. Booth is 8 by 10 feet.

"The object of our trip is to be able to combine the good aspects of both the British and the American systems of higher education. The British tend to specialize too much, and perhaps the Americans do not specialize enough." Mr. Tattersall is originally from Cambridge.
HE SAID Makerere College began as an all-Negro institution and became integrated without trouble. The college is in Ugandi's largest city and is affiliated with London University.

A Real Stinker
CLINTON, Okla. — (UPI) — A "friendly" skunk has invaded the backyard of the Clinton Indian Hospital here and set-up headquarters in the "gas house."
The striped invader free loads on table scraps and follows hospital workers as they go about their work in the backyard. Workers theorize the animal has been deodorized — however, nobody has worked up nerve to make a positive check.
Hall where he and his wife stayed, said:
"This hall is as nice as anything we have seen, if not nicer than others. And this is one of the most lively campuses we have seen anywhere."
