Subdivision Regulation Checks Suburb Growth
Kansas cities control suburban growth primarily through regulation of subdivisions within a three-mile radius from the city limits, the Governmental Research Center at the University of Kansas reports.
Twenty-two of 27 cities surveyed use this type of regulation more than any other method, although five municipalities do so in co-operation with city-county planning and zoning commissions. Only five cities, each with a population of fewer than 25,000 inhabitants, practice no subdivision regulation outside their corporate limits.
When cities co-operate in regional planning commissions, the power to regulate subdivisions remains with the city governing body. For 35 years the general statutory authority providing for such regulation has applied to all Kansas cities. The recent addition of co-operative powers with counties has been a significant augmentation to provisions of the original statute.
At least one city uses its municipal utility extension policy as a "lever" to enforce conformance to subdivision regulations. The city of Lawrence withholds water and sewer extensions to insure subdivision compliance in much the same manner as some other cities use utilities to enforce conformance to city building, lighting and plumbing codes.
Center Employe's Dismissal Upheld
The dismissal of an institutional worker at the KU Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan., has been upheld by the three-member Kansas Civil Service Board.
The action was taken Friday. The cases of two others who had appealed to the board were dismissed at their own request.
After testimony was presented the board ruled that Mabel Belton had been fired with cause by Russell H. Miller, associate director of the center. The board ordered that her name be returned to the civil service register for re-examination.
Those who asked that their cases not be heard were Rowena Ellis and Hortense Johnson. Miller said the three had used a scheme to pay for meals in the center cafeteria in reduced amounts.

Family of Man On Way to Russia
One of the U.S. Information Agency's most successful exhibits, "The Family of Man," is en route to Moscow for display at the American National Exhibition opening July 25.
The photo display, which has been seen by nearly 4 million persons in 28 countries, was assembled by Edward Steichen, dean of American photographers. It consists of 500 photographs, including nine by Soviet photographers, selected from 2 million submitted to New York's Museum of Modern Art by photographers from all over the world.
Mr. Steichen will fly to Moscow for the opening, together with his brother-in-law, Carl Sandburg, the poet and biographer of Lincoln.
Depicting the kinship of people everywhere, "The Family of Man" will be one of many cultural displays which the Soviet people will see at the exhibition in Moscow's Sokolniki Park.
The photographs have such universal themes as love and marriage, the family, play, work, children and old age, and illustrate day-to-day experiences which show the universal hopes and aspirations of mankind.
Faculty Members In Malaya for U.S.
Two KU physical education faculty are in Malaya this summer as educational specialists for the U.S. Department of State.
They are Prof. Henry A. Shenk, chairman of the physical education department, and M.E. "Bill" Easton, track coach. Professor Shenk is teaching in several summer institutes and advising youth organizations on programs in physical education and athletics.
Easton is working with coaches and athletes, explaining methods that have produced eight straight triple sweeps of the Big 8 cross country, indoor and outdoor track titles and the 1959 NCAA championship.

JUNCTION CITY, Kan.—(UPI)—Army Secretary Wilber M. Brucker said Monday the United States has "the power and the will to fight and win" if Russia pushes it too far in Berlin or elsewhere.
Brucker Cites U.S. Power
"The Soviets are apt to mistake our calm and peaceful approach as a sign of weakness," Brucker said. "Nothing could be more mistaken than for the Soviets to conclude that we will back down."
He said Americans "will not betray those who trust us... will not abdicate our rights, nor shirk our solemn responsibilities in any particular, no matter how threatening the Soviet may be."
LAWRENCE NOW SHOWING!
The Brucker statement, contained in a speech prepared for the dedication of a new bridge between Junction City and the Ft. Riley army post, was the latest such declaration
