State News Roundup
GARDEN CITY —(UPI)— Law enforcement officers gathered from the far reaches of western Kansas, fanned out from here today in an ex-ponding manhunt for the shotgun killer of the Herbert W. Clutter family as fear and tension mounted visible in this wheat-rich community.
Logan Sanford, director of the Kansas Bureau of Investigation and the state's top law enforcement officer, said flatly that "officers are without a single firm lead" in what he called "by far Kansas" most brutal crime in the 12 years I have been connected with the KBI."
The bodies of Clutter, 48, who served on the Federal Farm Credit Board for two years under an appointment by President Dwight D. Eisenhower; his wife, Bonnie, 45; daughter, Nancy, 16; and son, Kenyon, 15, were found in their $40,000 home near the tiny village of Holcomb Sunday.
All were bound and gagged and all had been shot in the head with a heavy-gauge shotgun and Clutter's throat had been cut.
Law enforcement officers of several counties, half a dozen KBI agents, Finney County sheriff's officers and Garden City police were
closeted for three hours last night in what Sanford defined as a strategy-planning session.
ATCHISON — A downtown Safe-
way store was destroyed by fire yester-
day with damage estimated by
Fire Marshall Jake Anslinger at
$225,000.
The fire, whipped by strong north winds, also threatened several other business houses. There were no injuries. The Safeway store had been opened two weeks ago.
Five companies fought the blaze of undetermined origin. Firefighters showered water on the Gerber Electric Co. building next to the Safeway store. Buildings across the street also were threatened by flying sparks.
ROELAND PARK — The Old Mission Junior High School was emptied of its 865 students during the noon hour yesterday when a telephone call came to the school secretary saying a bomb was in the basement and would go off at noon.
A thorough search by Johnson County patrolmen failed to find any kind of explosives or bomb.
Principal Lloyd Schurr said it was
believed a student might have made the call as a prank, but he added there has been no student trouble and none had been expelled or suspended lately.
The students were herded into the gymnasium building nearby—where there is no basement.
TOPEKA — The Fleming Company, a wholesale grocery firm will begin distributing cranberries to IGA stories in Kansas and Oklahoma today.
A. B. Thomas, director of product merchandising for the company, said the berries were from Wisconsin and had been certified as "free from chemical contamination."
inomas quoted B.C. Brazeau, president of Indian Trail Food Company of Wisconsin, as saying that cranberries are not being harvested in areas where the crop was sprayed with Aminothiazole, the insecticide which is said to have caused cancer in rats.
Meanwhile, representatives of federal and state food and drug divisions began collecting cranberry samples here to learn whether they are contaminated.
ASC to Act On Traffic Bill Today
A bill designed to alleviate part of KU's parking problem will be presented to the All Student Council tonight.
The bill states: "The absence of proper law is chaos."
The bill will ask the ASC to make "new traffic regulations with special regard to motorized bicycles and scooters."
New Yorker Is Author
It asks: that the area between the green fence rail on the parking and Jayhawk Boulevard be recognized as an official parking area for motor scooters; that one automobile stall in each parking zone be established for the exclusive use of motorized two-wheelers, and that a $2 yearly fee be charged for registering these vehicles at KU.
Donald Kissel, Bronx, N. Y., graduate student, is the author of the bill. He cited Harvard's recognition of motor scooters.
Campus officers at Harvard ticketed every scooter in sight until the Harvard Motor Scooter Club convinced the administration of the vehicles' practical uses.
A special parking lot was created on the school grounds, and "several hundred" two-wheelers are now parked every day in the Yard—the first time in Harvard's history that any motor vehicles have been allowed on that "sacred" ground.
500 Unclaimed Stalls Here
Kissel said there are about 500 unclaimed parking stalls in lots around K.U., but that the problem is not with university parking. The problem is parking on the hill, itself.

Announcing a comprehensive Postgraduate Education Program for engineers, scientists and mathematicians
Ever since the founding of the company some forty years ago, IBM has recognized education as an integral and continuing part of a professional person's life. Through formal educational programs within the company, and through affiliations with universities, it has long been possible for IBM employees to earn scholastic credits. Now a comprehensive Postgraduate Education Program, surpassing any previous programs, has been initiated at IBM for plant and laboratory personnel.
ADVANCED DEGREE UNIVERSITY PLAN A qualified engineer, scientist or mathematician, who has been with IBM at least a year, may compete for a fellowship or a scholarship in selected fields at the university which he believes offers the finest opportunities for advanced study. All benefits that would normally accrue if the candidate were on active employment will be retained.
- Doctoral Fellowships: Selected candidates will receive full tuition, fees and regular salaries for full-time study up to three years.
- Masters' Scholarships: Selected candidates will receive full tuition, fees and regular salaries for an academic year of full-time study.
- ADVANCED DEGREE ON-SITE PLAN A qualified engineer, scientist, or mathematician will have the opportunity to undertake part-time graduate studies at an IBM plant or laboratory, concurrent with active employment.
- Masters' Degrees: Candidates will be able to complete their studies at company expense under programs operated in conjunction with universities near IBM facilities.
ADVANCED STUDY PLAN (NONDEGREE) These studies offer continued educational opportunity throughout a career at IBM. They are not generally degree-oriented. Given at or near IBM facilities, they are designed to help retain mastery over basic engineering, science, and mathematical subjects and to gain knowledge in advanced fields such as number theory, finite mathematics, magnetism, solid state physics, and network analyses.
