New Curator Praises KU's Art Museum
A quiet, young man is the new curator of the KU Art Museum. His name is Gerald S. Bernstein.
"I was pleasantly surprised to be appointed to this post," Mr. Bernstein said with a slow Eastern accent. "I had no idea that I would be able to combine this post with that of instructor in art history."
Fushing back his thick, dark hair and adjusting his glasses as he spoke, Mr. Bernstein said that he had graduated from Adelphi College in New Jersey and had gone on for graduate work at the University of Pennsylvania.
"Two good things happened to me at the University of Pennsylvania," he said, "I heard about this job and I met my wife. She is from Boston and was finishing up her undergraduate work in Philadelphia."
When asked about the KU Art Museum, Mr. Bernstein settled back in his chair and said that "this is no doubt one of the best art museums in a state owned university in the country."
"The purpose for a university museum is very different from that of a private museum. A private museum will try to get as many pictures as possible by a particular artist or from a particular time but a university museum tries to show as complete a history as possible of all art. This museum has done that quite well."
He said:

Johnson Seeks Moratorium On Political 'Mud-Slinging'
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — (UPI) — Democratic vice presidential nominee Lyndon B. Johnson called today for a moratorium on "irresponsible mud-slinging" and what he called the kind of campaigning that "questions the motives and patriotism of an opponent."
The Texas senator made the statement at a news conference with former President Harry S. Truman and Missouri Lt. Gov. Edward V. Long, nominated this week to run for the U.S. Senate held by the late Thomas S. Hennings Jr.
"No good cause is served when the American people are told that either of our great political parties is a war party or a peace party." Johnson said. "Neither is any cause served when hints are tossed around
that a candidate selected by one of our great political parties is 'naive on communism' or 'soft on communism.'"
Without naming Vice President Richard M. Nixon, Johnson charged that the Republican campaign of challenging Sen. John F. Kennedy's statements on communism were "devisive politicking" which serves Soviet Nikita Khrushhev perfectly.
"I believe it is time to call a moratorium on the kind of campaigning that questions the kind of motives and patriotism of an opponent," Johnson said. "And I think that the American people would like to have a clear and definite statement as to whether this kind of campaigning will be repudiated or whether we are going to have another period of campaigning by innuendo."
