THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN

Art museum displays annual crafts exhibit
A colorful array of tapestries stretch from ceiling to floor. A glistening pair of metalwork wedding goblots sit royally in the corner of a display case in the University of Kansas Museum of Art, scene of the 15th annual Kanas Designer-Craftsman Exhibit.
The exhibit, which in the past has been sponsored by the KU Department of Design and the Kansas Union and displayed in the Union, is sponsored by the museum this year.
Bret Waller, museum director, said the museum has taken over the annual exhibit as part of the museum's 40th anniversary.
"Our theme this year is 'life begins at 40'," Waller said, "and the crafts exhibit is one of the ways we're trying to promote more active interest in the culture of the University and community."
From 436 art pieces entered by 147 Kansas or former Kansas artists, 88 pieces were selected for the exhibit. Fifty-one artists are represented, Waller said.
The exhibit was judged by Wendell Castle, a KU graduate now an associate professor of furniture design at the Rochester Institute of Technology. Two chairs, one wooden and the other plastic, designed by Castle are on display at the exhibit.

Waller said he hopes to see the annual exhibit expanded next year to include more and better awards. He said the museum's present facilities would not accommodate more art work, but the museum gallery handled more work this year than the Union has been able to display in the past.

NEW YORK (UPI)-President-elect Richard M. Nixon, putting the final touches on the programs and personnel of his new administration, summoned Sargent Shriver, the U.S. ambassador to France, for a private meeting yesterday.
Viet talks post may go to Shriver
Details of their session in the President-elect's Fifth Avenue apartment were not disclosed, but Shriver is considered a likely candidate for a prominent post in Nixon's administration.
A brother-in-law of the Kennedy's, he was appointed ambassador to France last winter by President Johnson and has since established himself as a popular figure in the French capital.
This has added to his reputation as a smooth and efficient administrator won during his years in Washington as head of antipoverty programs and the Peace Corps under Presidents Kennedy and Johnson.
Shriver has been mentioned as a possible replacement for one of the chief negotiators at the Vietnam talks oiin Paris. As the American ambassador to France, he has been close to the situation.
