No Snow Forecast For Oread Vicinity
WHOOPS, HELP!-A KU student takes a tumble in the snow as her feet slide on an icy sidewalk. Her plight is common to other students as they slip and slide to classes across the snowbound campus.
- It ain't gonna snow no mo' — at least not this weekend. The United States Weather Bureau this morning forecasted partly cloudy-skies today and Friday for the Oread vicinity.
Students planning trips home to western Kansas this weekend,however, will be greeted with generally heavy snows.
C. G. Bayles, KU buildings and grounds superintendent, said:
Meanwhile, Kansans continue to burrow out from under the heavy 12-inch mantle of snow and ice accumulated through this week's three storms.
"All steps and streets are cleared.
We have moved all that's movable.
What is frozen down cannot be touched."
Kansas Turnpike Authority has labeled the newest Kansas thoroughfare "fairly clear" for the entire
route. Crews are still working to keep it that way.
The Kansas State Highway Patrol warns that drifting and blowing snow is making other Kansas motor arteries hazardous in spots. All major routes are open but the patrol urges motorists to drive with extreme caution.
Locally, the main streets of Lawrence are pretty well cleared. The city street department reports that crews are working on side streets "as best they can."
Heavy clothes and electric blankets are not to be discarded though, because colder weekend temperatures are headed this way. The Weather Bureau forecasts Friday's high to be below 20 degrees.
According to KU weather observer figures, the mercury froze at the 14-degree mark at approximately 6 am. today.

Dr. Price said it is hard to judge motives for attending church.

"I have noticed, however, that a fair share of those going into church work are of a very high caliber. They're not second-rate individuals."
Leaders Express Doubt About Religious Revival
Interest Declining
The Re. Alan Pickering said that we are at a climax of real interest in religions and now interest is declining.
"I think that college students tend to question the religions of their childhood and frequently begin to ask the realy ultimate questions," he said.
"I believe that some go because their friends do, rather than being attracted by the religious experiences.
Another leader said that college students are seeking independence which leads them to turn away from institutions such as the church and other things on which they were dependent.
Campus religious leaders do not believe there is a religious revival, according to a poll taken today by the Daily Kansan.
One leader feels that interest in religion is declining. Others said this was a difficult question to generalize on, but they have not noticed any indications of a religious revival.
The leaders were also asked if they thought college students tended to turn away from religion.
Students Question Faith
Students Question Path One leader feels that college students often ask the really ultimate questions.
The Rev. Edwin Price, Methodist Student Minister, said he has not been able to detect any significant religious revival, but it is too easy to generalize.
Interest Declining
Father Gerard Goetz, sponsor of the KU Newman Club, said there seems to be a general religious revival in the United States.
Increased Religious Activity
Increased Religious Activity "This is evidenced by the increased number of religious activities on the American campus and the increased general coverage of religion by magazines and newspapers. But we must

look at effects to judge the sincerity of the movement. It is difficult to pass judgment otherwise," he said.
Father Gerard said that he didn't feel the greater percentage of students entering college "turned away from God."
"There are those those that do," asserted Father Gerard, "but those few are merely suffering from immaturity. They have to be conformists and copy those who have broken away from the church and who are public about it."
Religious Week Faces Jeopardy
Discussion will be initiated by the Student Religious Council as to whether Religion in Life Week will be continued another year.
Lee Crawford, Bartlesville, Okla. senior and president of the Council, said today that the Student Religious Council will meet March 7 to discuss the matter.
Crawford said, "The only alternatives are to continue Religion in Life Week or to do away with it."
Attendance Is Low
Only approximately 50 students out of 7,500 attended the Religion in Life Week talks. This year's attendance was reported to be far below last year's, although no official reports are available.
The bandsmen were to play tonight at a formal embassy reception given in Eisenhower's behalf.
Twenty-nine persons (not all students) participated in the opening ceremonies Monday.
Official reports said 14 bodies and 14 survivors had been recovered from the 69 persons listed aboard both planes. Five other Navy bandsmen are listed as missing.
Seven students attended the lecture on "Industry in Engineering" given by Harvey H. Grice, president of Graceland College.
RIO DE JANERIO—(UPD)—A U.S Navy DC-6 bringing Navy handsmen to an embassy reception for President Eisenhower collided over the Rio waterfront today with a Brazilian airliner. Both planes plunged into the sea with heavy loss of life.
No Introduction Made
The RLW group neglected to send a representative to introduce Mr. Grice to his audience.
Both students and religious leaders have condemned the worth of Religion in Life Week in polls taken by the Daily Kansan this week.
Missing Evaluation Sheets Found
Twenty-seven missing packets containing student evaluation sheets were found today.
The packets were reported to be on a desk in Malott Hall yesterday. However, when a Daily Kansan reporter went to investigate last night, the evaluation sheets were missing.
Today, F. S. Rowland, associate professor of chemistry, told the Kansan he had taken the packets from the desk and moved them to his office in the radio chemistry laboratory.
The packets contained evaluation sheets for instructors of physics, pharmacy and engineering classes. Three of them had been opened and contained marked evaluation sheets.
Bulletin
Prof. Rowland said:
"I was going to tell the individual instructors they could pick up their evaluation sheets in my office."
The evaluation sheets were to be delivered by a member of the ASC to the department office. However, Rowland said he found them in an office for chemistry graduate students.
An instructor said that he had seen the packets laying outside of the graduate student's door yesterday.
Graham Moore, Houston, Tex.,
Seen Yesterday
sophomore, and distribution chairman of the evaluation sheets, said the evaluation sheets had been delivered to the department offices Monday evening.
The men who delivered the packets reported to Graham that they had placed them outside the department office door.
Prof. Rowland said that he had found his packet of evaluation sheets in the group in 127 Malott. He took his sheets from the bunch and told other chemistry instructors where they could find their sheets.
He said he was unable to do it himself. He had several members of his pledge class deliver the packets for him.
Yesterday the engineering department received a bundle of evaluation sheets. They did not belong in that department. They were for the English, sociology and religion departments.
Graham said ASC officers had said that if office doors were locked to leave the packets laying on the floor beside the door.
The engineering packets found in Malott yesterday belonged in Marvin Hall.
MANHATTAN, Kan. — (UPI)— Kansas State University students barricaded campus entrances today and "roughed" up several faculty members in a riotous demand for an athletic holiday.
K-State Students Riot for 'Holiday'
It appeared no one was seriously injured, although "dozens of fights" broke out during the hour-long melee.
Dr. James A. MaCain, President of the University, said "not more than 150 students were actively involved, but other estimates ran as high as 200.
Using bon fires, automobiles, metal bars and carpenter's horses to block the 12 entrances to the campus, the
students tried to restrain others forcibly from going to classes.
Some faculty members were permitted to enter, others were seized and jerked back. Several automobiles were pushed into roadside depressions but first reports indicated none was overturned.
Campus police declined to comment on the outbreak and Manhattan police apparently were not asked to aid. A student said the campus officers made no effort to break up the demonstration.
"They just stood by rather than use force," he said.
McCain issued a statement decrying the incident and saying that
"steps will be taken to minimize the likelihood" of a recurrence of "such irresponsible behavior," but made no mention of what disciplinary action will be taken.
Another member of the administrative staff, who declined to be quoted by name, said she would catalog the disturbance as a "riot."
At noon, part of the barricades were still up. Dr. McCain's office said: "But things appear to be quieting down."
Some students appeared on the campus as early as 6 a.m. to launch their demand for a holiday in celebration of K-State's basketball victory last night over the University of Kansas.
Father Gerard also stated that "no national observance week for religion should be necessary. God should live every day in the hearts and minds of KU students."
The Rev, Albert Bramble, minister of the First Methodist Church, said that he hasn't observed any signs of religious revival.
He said many college students turn away from religion as a result of asking questions on their own and finding answers.
"They have acquired new knowledge but it is without interpretation and this tends to lead them away. College students are seeking independence which includes turning away from institutions such as the church and the usual things on which they were dependent. Typically college students come back to the church after they are married," he said.
