1959 Rock Chalk Skits Will Be Coeducational
Rock Chalk is getting a face lifting this year.
The skits will be integrated, the show will contain five skits, and the trend will be toward the campus brand of humor, according to Roger D. Stanton, Marysville senior and producer of the show.
This will be the first time fraternities and sororites have worked together. They will be paired through a type of bidding, much like that used in sorority rush.
Oklahoma, Missouri, Kansas State and Illinois are all using this plan in their student productions. This method enables more houses and more individuals to participate Stanton said.
There will be only five skits instead of the usual six.
The campus brand of humor will be stressed, for in the past this seemed to be the favorite. Stanton
said. Last year the houses drifted from campus themes, he said, but though that kind of production is fine for professionals, high enough quality cannot be repeated consistently.
Application deadline for staff positions is October 29. The unfilled positions are: continuity director, executive director, two co-directors, four members for the production advisory staff, executive secretary, and stage manager. Tryouts for master of ceremonies will be at the end of November or the first of December
"Besides the production is aimed to be a campus fun show, and our aim is to please," he added.
House producers will meet October 8. The script deadline will be the day before Christmas vacation.
Applications are being accepted for student trainee positions by the U.S. Civil Service Commission. Positions include scientific, technical, agricultural, accounting, statistical, soil and range conservation, soil science and agricultural engineering fields.
Civil Service Jobs Vacant
The skits will be judged by men from this area, who will probably be from the radio-TV, drama, and English departments.
Applications for the Federal Service Entrance examinations must be filed by Oct. 1. The first examination will be held on October 17.
The jobs are open to high school seniors and college students at salaries from $3.255 to $3.755.
Jobs are also open as food service workers at Wadsworth, Kan., and Excelsior Springs, Mo. at $1.20 an hour for the Veterans Administration.
Additional information and application forms may be obtained at the Civil Service window in the Lawrence Post Office.

New Student Loan Fund Established
Air-Conditioned, Phones, TV Free Coffee, Free Swimming
A loan fund memorializing Dr. Frank B. Taggart of Independence has been created for students in the KU School of Medicine.
The fund was created with the Kansas University Endowment Association through a $5,000 bequest by Mrs. Taggart, who died in 1958. Student loans will be financed from the principal of the loan.
Dr. Taggart attended KU from 1900-02 and was graduated in 1904 from the Kansas City Medical College, which was merged a year later with other institutions to form the KU Schol of Medicine.
"I am satisfied there was no criminal action" in the case, Dinis told newsmen at Cape Cod Hospital where Munford was recovering from emergency surgery.
Dinis, after questioning Mrs. Munford, house guests and others, reported that the executive suffered an abdominal puncture from a paring knife. He said the accident occurred while Munford was putting away utensils in the kitchen of his summer home at nearby Chatham yesterday.

Pharmacists To Keep Pace
The Traveling Educational Program for Kansas Pharmacists will open its third year Wednesday with classes in the Kansas Union.
The unusual circuit program, with similar classes to be held in Salina and Hays, is designed to help pharmacists keep pace with the rapidly changing developments in their profession.
Classes at KU will be conducted by Duane G. Wenzel, professor of pharmacy, and Raymond Hopponen, associate professor of pharmacy. There will be classes on antiseptics and disinfectants, narcotic analgesics, vaccines and serums, and antipyretic analgesics.
There will be 17 pharmacists eligible for certificates of achievement which are awarded for attending 20 hours of classes in the circuit program.
The schools are held twice a year on a rotating basis in different sections of the state in order to give as many pharmacists as possible an opportunity to attend.

The first crest of the Walnut spashed into the northern part of Great Bend late yesterday.
Flood water surrounded the western side of Great Bend last night while rains continued in the area.
