N. Carolina State Initiates Program
RALEIGH, N.C. — North Carolina State College has implemented a program designed to make the most of superior talent among its students.
A similar program is available on the sophomore level of mathematics. Sophomores who have completed the special mathematics program may enroll in the superior student program in physics.
Entering freshmen, selected on the basis of entrance examination scores, may enter superior student programs in English and mathematics.
An honors program in engineering, open to a limited number of seniors, is a reward for superior ability, achievement and a record of intellectual curiosity.
Kansan Want Ads Get Results
The drive, which benefits 11 campus and charitable organizations, ends Sunday afternoon. Trophies will be presented to the men's and women's organized houses and the freshman dormitory donating the most money per capita.
Delta Gamma sorority and Alpha Kappa Lambda fraternity lead the organized houses in donations.
Corbin Hall, freshman women's dormitory, leads the freshman dormitories in donations.
Cranberry Report Expected Next Week
The Delta Upsilon fraternity pledge class has collected the most money from independent students.
CHICAGO—(UFI)—Arthur S. Flemming, secretary of Health, Education and Welfare, expects to have a report late next week on possible contamination of cranberry crops in six states.
Flemming told a news conference last night his inspectors should complete their reports on crops in Washington, Oregon, Michigan, Massachusetts, Wisconsin and New Jersey by Nov. 21.
This would allow housewives five days to buy cranberries in time for the Thanksgiving holiday Nov. 26.
Orange Bowl or Not一 KU Student Will Visit Miami
The carefree celebrator will be Warren Haskin, Leawood junior, whose cousin, Nancy Jeanne Wakefield, was selected yesterday as the 1959 Orange Bowl Queen.
Bowl bid or no, at least one KU student will have reason to celebrate in sunny Miami come January 1.
"It was really a shock to see her picture in the paper and read that she'd been selected." Haskin said.
He immediately called her long distance to offer his congratulations.
Former KC Resident
Former KU Resident Speaking with Haskin, the Florida University student, a former Kansas City resident, said she was
pulling for a Jayhawker bowl bid. "I'm really excited about being chosen," she said breathlessly.
"But I think it would be even more thrilling if KU could beat Missouri and come down here."
The honey-blonde beauty queen had planned a visit to Kansas City over the Christmas holidays, but the pump and pageantry of the Orange Bowl classic over which she will preside have changed those plans.
Overcame Disease
Haskin said the new queen was "a tremendous gal." A professional water skier at scenic Cypress Gardens, Fla., and much in demand as a model. Nancy has overcome a severe childhood attack of rheumatic fever. The disease had forced her parents to move to Winter Haven, Fla., in hopes the balmy climate would speed her recovery.
Florida sunshine seems to have agreed with Nancy, who now measures 37-23-37, good enough to win her top honors as Auto Show Queen for central Florida and a runner-up spot in the state Miss America preliminaries.
Modest, Too
A Lesson in Moral Honesty Changes Students' Attitudes
FREEHOLD, N. J. — (UPI)—A high school history teacher gave three of his classes "rigged" exams because they didn't think there was anything wrong with fixing television quiz shows, it was disclosed yesterday.
He gave the test answers to three students in each class, all of whom made perfect scores. The rest of the students in his Freehold Regional High School classes failed.
The teacher, Melvin C. Willet 32, said he wanted to teach his classes a lesson in "moral honesty."
"I think the test worked," Willet said. "At first they didn't think
Errant Son Will Be Headed Home
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — (UPD) — A mother's plea for her errant son, with "a drinking problem" brought the promise of help from Sheriff Orvid Owsley.
When the son is released from the Municipal Farm Nov. 27 an officer will see him safely aboard a train bound for his Hazlehurst, Miss., home, and mother - aged 90.
"We were brought up together. In all the time I've known her, she's never gotten even a little bit swell-headed, in spite of all the titles she's won." Haskin said.
Fireman, Save My Fish
The wandering boy is 73.
SOBERTON, England —(UPI) — Firemen rushed to the rescue of several hundred goldfish here after the Parish Council decided the water in their pond was giving out because of a water shortage. The firemen saved the fish by putting some of them in separate water tanks.
"She's got a warm, gay personality, and she's a darn good bowler," smiled Haskin ruefully as he recalled a 173-156 defeat hung on him by his generous cousin. "who had never played before."
Doing easily what others find difficult is talent; doing what is impossible for talent is genius. — Henri-Frederic Amiel
Haskin, who is a sports writer for the Kansan, will visit Miami over the Christmas holidays, where he plans to see a lot of Nancy, and perhaps a little of the Orange Bowl game, "if I have time."
there was anything wrong with fixed television quiz shows simply because they weren't illegal. Now their attitude seems to have changed."
The rigged exams will not count on his students' grades. Willet said.
