Republican leaders to attend KU game
Three prominent Republicans will attend the KU-New Mexico football game here Oct. 5, Mark Edwards, chairman of the KU Collegiate Young Republicans (CYR) announced last night.
The three are Sen. Charles Percy of Illinois, Rick Harmon candidate for Governor, U.S. Rep. Robert Dole, candidate for U.S. Senate.
The announcement came at a CYR meeting in the Kansas Union Kansas Room. It was also announced that the candidates will attend a reception after the game. The exact time and place was not known.
Bill McKuen, speaking in behalf of Rick Harmon, disclosed that the candidate's campaign was going outside the Republican party in search of support. He said, "We're not just after Republicans but Democrats and Independents. We are also trying to appeal to people who are not happy with all the Republican candidates. We have several people who were leaders in the McCarthy thing."
McKuen scorned Gov. Robert Docking's vetoes against bills designed to aid education and highways. The Harmon compaigner said, "Kansas rates 37th in aid to schools. This puts tremendous pressure on local school systems."
McKuen charged that the Governor has raised property taxes by forcing local school systems to furnish allegedly large proportions of school funds. He claimed these high taxes had

Rocky to stump for Nixon-Agnew in Kansas City
TOPEKA (UPI)—Don Coneanon, state Republican party chairman, announced Wednesday that Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York will be stumping for the Nixon-Agnew ticket in Kansas Oct. 4.
The governor will arrive at Fairfax Airport in Kansas City, Kan., at 3:15 p.m. where he will be met by Sen. James Pearson, R-Kan., state GOP gubernatorial nominee Rick Harmon, and party officials.
Rockefeller will then go to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Alden Smith in Mission Hills for a reception in honor of Harmon.
At about 5 p.m., he will motor to Kansas City, Mo., for appearances there. He will attend a reception at 6:30 p.m. and address a $100-a-plate dinner at 7:30 p.m. These events will be at the Hotel Muehlbach.

"stifled development."
The speaker contended that economic development was a key problem in Kansas. He said, "Kansas" urban problems are not yet to the degree that Chicago's or New York's are." However, he urged that urban problems be worked on now.
McKuen accused Docking of using "personal smears" against Harmon. The speaker referred to a speech made earlier in the week by a Docking associate allegedly noting Harmon's marriage to the daughter of a restaurant chain owner.
IFC to back code debate
The KU Interfraternity Council (IFC) will sponsor an open discussion of the proposed new University Senate Code following the regular IFC meeting tonight in the Kansas Union Jayhawk Room.
Several members of the Student Faculty Committee on University Governance, which drafted the code, will participate in a panel discussion of the documents involved. This includes the new code, the committee report (majority report) and the dissenting report of the committee (minority report).
Panel members include Ambrose Saricks, associate dean of the Graduate School and committee chairman; Charles Oldfather, professor of law; Clif Conrad, Bismarck, N.D. senior and president of the student body; Bill Berkowitz, New York City senior, Rick Atkinson, Belleville graduate student, and Jay Barrish, Kansas City, Mo. graduate student, all members of Peoples Voice.
Pete Woodsmall, IFC president, said the meeting, which begins at 8 p.m. is open to all students. The regular IFC meeting will begin at 7:30 p.m.
The main difference between American and European education is that Europe regards its universities as "ivory towers" attended by only a select few, while the American concept is "the more that obtain a higher education the better," according to a visiting sociology lecturer from the University of Amsterdam.
School systems compared
Dr. A. N. J. den Hollander, in a speech last night in the Kansas Union Forum Room, said Europe is feeling the "impact and temptations" of American life. For this reason, many European institutions are trying to "make better preparations for students and change a few rigid boundaries" in their system.
Dr. den Hollander, the founder and major office holder of the European Association of American Study, said all institutions of higher education reflect the culture and ideas of the society in which they operate.
Universities often reflect a cultural lag in some areas but in others provide a "front-guard" of changes. This inconsistency leads to an ambiguity and mistrust among Europeans of the intellectual.
He continued by saying that American universities reflect "middle-class values and local opinions." The reason is that American institutions are sponsored in a large measure by private donations and by incomes derived from taxation. Therefore, the society demands that they account for the money spent and conform to a certain standard of action.
This reason accounts for the growing number of student revolts, he said, as students in American universities feel the imposed standards an attempt to deprive them of their freedom.
In Europe the funds needed for university administration and research come from the government with no standards or demands upon the university. European universities, therefore, are more free to act according to their own policies and traditions.
Because the policies are so rigid, European students revolt. European universities are not the
centers of change, as in America,
says den Hollander, but are centers
for the "unemployed or
shall we say those who delay
employment."
Europe is hampered by the traditions and customs of the past. American universities are fighting "19th century frontier principles and ideas."

Pantless men wander campus
Two coeds were walking by the west side of Marvin Hall Tuesday afternoon and got quite a surprise.
When one of them heard a "Pssst," she looked through the ground floor window and saw a 50 to 60 year old man standing on a chair smiling out at her.
Another coed told police Tuesday of an exhibitionist in a car parked in the Corbin Hall parking lot. She said he was seated in his car with the door open and his feet outside the car. He was wearing only a Tee shirt and fled soon after she saw him.
The man was wearing only an undershirt.
Apparently because of her shock she neglected to mention it to her roommate walking at her side until they were past the building.
Tuesday evening at about 7:30 a college-aged man parked his station wagon in a drive on 13th Street between Tennessee and Ohio Streets and called the attention of another coed.
When she looked at him he said, "Look down here." She fled and he made no attempt to follow, probably because his pants and underwear were pulled down below his knees.
Two similar incidents were reported yesterday by Lawrence and University of Kansas police.
