New Student Flood Handled, Says Wescoe
A tidal wave of students has been successfully channeled—at least academically—by the Kansas universities, according to Dr. W. Clarke Wescoe, chancellor of the University.
SPEAKING SUNDAY at the traditional Opening Convocation, Chancellor Wescoe told an audience of approximately 4,000 new students and their parents that today half the Kansans of college age attend, a percentage far above the national average of 30 per cent.
He termed this "a source of pride for all Kansans."
"In 1900 only four per cent of our 18-21 year-olds went to college across the nation. Today the national figure is 30 per cent. By 1975 experts predict that the figure in the United States may be .50 per cent," the chancellor said.
"Today very nearly one of every two young Kansasans of college age is attending college—Kansas is living in 1975," he said.
At the same time the chancellor was speaking, other new men students were moving into Oread Hall a dormitory the University has not used for the past year. The fact that Oread is being re-opened has caused speculation that "domestically" the University did not adequately foresee this "tidal wave."
IN GREETING THE NEW STUDENTS Chancellor Wescoe pointed out that increased educational facilities mean not only more opportunities for the individual, but also for the state of Kansas and the nation.
In backing up his point he quoted from the late Alfred North Whitehead, one of the greatest of modern educators;
"In the conditions of modern life
a Swingline stapler no bigger than a pack of gum!
Including 1000 Staples
A do-it-yourself kit in the palm of your hand! Unconditionally guaranteed, Tot makes book covers, fastens papers, does arts and crafts work, mends, tacks...no end of uses!
the rule is absolute, the race which does not value trained intelligence is doomed. . . . Tomorrow science will have moved forward yet one more step, and there will be no appeal from the judgement which will then be pronounced on the uneducated."

With the increased benefits of a 20th century education, the student also must face responsibility, the chancellor said.

HE SAID that if the tidal wave of students is to make the most of its opportunities, it "must push itself to the limit and be mindful of the time."
"You will be presented in the next few years with many opportunities," he stated.
"Seize them, make the most of them. If you do not find enough opportunities, make your dissatisfaction clear."

Minnesota Leads
"We must, as a university, continue to create," he said.
ST. PAUL, Minn. (UPI) — Minnesota is the top-ranked metal mining state, according to a U.S. Census report. The 1958 metal mine shipments amounted to 22 per cent of all metal mine shipments in the U.S. Most of the metal was iron ore.
The Lawrence and KU police departments have combined with the KU Athletic Association to prepare and distribute a Lawrence street map showing routes to KU football parking areas and traffic routes for departing after the game.
Heavy Football Traffic Expected
The prospect of having a record-breaking season in attendance prompted this action.
One reason for the prospect of huge crowds is a record season ticket sale which is now past 10,000. Another reason is a series of special events planned for football weekends, including the day-long Kansas Union Expansion Open House Saturday and a Centennial Barbecue to be held in Marvin Grove the day of the Oklahoma game.
The campus parking lots nearest the stadium charge $1 for football parking, KU officials encourage more visitors to take advantage of the large parking areas near Allen Field House for which parking is free.
The officials point out several additional advantages:
- The lots are easy to reach from Iowa street (Highway 59) via Fifteenth street, from Twenty-third street (Highway 10) or Nineteenth street via Naismith Road.
- For the first time a short, three-block pedestrian route to the stadium across the central part of the campus will be marked with signs.
- People parked in these lots will be back to their cars and on their way home sooner.

Put Out the Cat
BUFFALO, N. Y. (UPI) — A burglar alarm sounded early one morning at a local firm and police quickly converged on the scene.
Minutes later they reported back to headquarters that a cat, sitting quietly on a window sill, had cast a shadow that activated an electric eye to set off the alarm.
