Auto survey shows habits of motorists
What kind of people drive automobiles to work and why? A KU geography professor believes that the majority are middle-aged, family-oriented males, usually skilled in a trade.
Robert T. Aangeenburg, assistant professor of geography, recently reported on "Automobile Community in Large Suburbs: A Comparative Analysis of Private Car Use in the Daily Journey to Work" before the Association of American Geographers.
Aangeenburg studied the community habits of residents in the 50 largest suburban areas in the United States to find the answers.
Working wives cause an increased use of the automobile. They are often working parttime and need the car after work for errands and for chauffeur ing the children. This forces the husbands to use a carpool, Aangeenburg found.
Once the factors influencing use of the automobile rather than public transportation are known, the suburban community can be re-educated to use more public transportation. This would cut down on clogged highways and pollution of the air in the crowded downtown areas.
"One eventual solution to this problem may be the use of huge parking centers, where people can park outside the city and take public transportation to their downtown jobs," he said. "This is now being used in a few areas."
Aangeenburg, who is acting director of the KU Center for Regional Studies, is also a student of urban transportation and population analysis. He undertook the study while holding a Ford Foundation fellowship.
Air Force gives 10 ROTC grants
Ten KU Air Force ROCT cadets have received Air Force financial assistance grants.
The selection and the announcement were made through the office of Brig. Gen. Donald F. Blake, commandant of all AFROTC detachments.
Each grant includes tuition and fees, an allowance for books and $50 per month for expenses. The cadets were chosen on the basis of academic record and scores on the Air Force Officer Qualifying test.
KU students receiving the grants are John B. Ashbaugh, Wichita sophomore; Douglas G. Crandall, Parsons senior; Roger A. Fife, Olathe freshman; Steven C. McConnell, Atchison junior; Alan A. Mueller, Thousand Oaks, Calif, sophomore; Jeffrey C. Nash, Atwood junior; William W. Orrison, Meade sophomore; Richard L. Treat, Ferguson, Mo., sophomore; Michael L. Weber, Hutchinson junior, and Michael C. White, Topeka freshman.
WASHINGTON (UPI)—The Supreme Court opened a new term yesterday with a vigorous give-and-take argument sparked by Chief Justice Earl Warren and Justice Abe Fortas over one of the court's loudest critics, George C. Wallace.
Court argues on Wallace
The nine justices stepped into the 1968 political picture on the first day—traditionally reserved for brief formalities by hearing Wallace's appeal to have his name on the Ohio ballot for the Nov. 5 election as the presidential candidate of the American Independent Party.
Warren, whose hopes to retire were foiled by the Senate's refusal to confirm Fortas as his successor, smilingly took his customary seat for his 16th term. There were no allusions to the bitter Senate battle over Fortas and the Warren court in recent weeks.
The court met 20 minutes late—in itself an unusual departure—while it voted unanimously to dismiss appeals by candidates and parties in California and
Virginia to get on those states' ballots in November.
The justices then heard Wallace's appeal of a lower court order saying he could appear on the Ohio ballot only as a write-in candidate. Wallace's name now will appear on ballots in 49 states.
The former Alabama governor's attorney, David J. Young, claimed Wallace "has sufficient support in Ohio that his chances of carrying the state are very high."
Young and Charles S. Lopeman, representing the Ohio attorney general, were on the receiving end of some testy questioning by Warren, his would-be successor and every other justice including Potter Stewart.
Stewart had granted an interim order placing Wallace's name on the Ohio ballot along with a stand-in vice presidential candidate, former Gov. Marvin Griffin of Georgia. It will stand failing a high court ruling before Oct. 15.

Dower Dykes, chairman of the design department, announced the addition of three new faculty members to the department.

Herbert Schumacher is a teaching associate in the ceramics area. He is on leave from Colorado State College where he is assistant professor of art and head of ceramic art. He received his bachelor's and master's degrees from KU.
Peter North, assistant professor of industrial design, received his bachelor of electrical engineering at the Federal Industrial School in Vienna, Austria, and a master of applied arts degree from the Vienna Academy for Applied Arts.
Evening 7:30 - 9:30
The American Independent Party was formed and 452,867 signatures were obtained, ut the Ohio secretary of state said last July that Wallace still could not be on the ballot because of other laws requiring "a new political party to have been a political party before it can obtain official recognition."
A special three-judge federal court ruled this unconstitutional, but relegated Wallace to a write-in position only.
