World Crises Don't Affect ROTC Training
Three KU military professors forsee only minor changes in training the ROTC detachments in time of world crisis.
Col. Robert P. Ash, professor of air science said, "In the event of a worsening world crisis, our detachment will adapt to existing needs. This will probably mean an expansion in the program."
The extent of the crisis will be a determining factor as to how the program will fluctuate. Scientific transition from man to aircraft to adventures in outer space will likely be a phase of training of great importance, he said.
Col. Ash explained, "The AFROTC unit has a quota which is not filled this year. In the event of a world shocking crisis—usually the period when classes overflow-I'm sure that such a quota could be increased if need be."
Col. Ralph J. Hanchin, professor of military science and tactics said, "The Army ROTC unit will not be affected by a national emergency

Daily Kansan Advertising Regulations
Alfred Claus, of Bellante and Clauss architecture firm of Philadelphia, has won several design awards and designed the first group of split-level homes in the United States.
The following Rules and Regulations shall apply to BOTH classified and display advertising unless so stated.
"Our training program is extended over a four year period and is not likely to undergo changes due to a worsening crisis. Enrollment in classes usually remains the same from year to year."
1. The publisher through the business manager, office manager, classified advertising manager, advertising manager, and or national advertising manager reserves the right to edit, revise or reject any advertising copy which does not conform to its regulations.

4. No abbreviation is permitted in the key words of a set-solid advertisement.
6. Claims for allowances for errors must be made within 15 days from the date of publication.
Capt. J. W. Newsom, professor of naval science said, "While other divisions of military defense units are directly affected by world crisis, we continue the normal four year training plan.
7. All student or student organization advertising shall be "cash-in-advance" of publication.
"KU Navy cadets receive training comparable to that received at Annapolis Naval Academy," Capt. Newsom said.
The Naval program's primary mission is to train personnel for supply missions. However, upon graduation they may go into a specific phase of naval training, he said.
8. No alcoholic beverage advertising, either openly stated, implied by picture, drawing, or code, shall be accepted.

BERKELEY, Calif. - (UPI) -- Two University of California scientists said recently human waste products may supply the key with which man will open the outer reaches of space.
Space Key May Be From Within
Wednesday, March 18. 1959 University Daily Kansan
The scientists were Dr. Clarence C. Golueke, assistant research biologist, and Dr. William J. Oswald, assistant professor of sanitary engineering.
They demonstrated conclusively that tiny one-celled algae plants and bacteria, existing solely on human waste products, can provide enough oxygen and fresh water to enable man to live in space indefinitely.
The scientists said the only alternative to biological control of space environments is either to carry great quantities of water and oxygen, or to utilize purely chemical and physical means of removing and regenerating waste materials so that their elements may be re-used.
In Seward, Alaska, the longest day in the year lasts about 19 hours; the shortest less than six hours.
Weekend Accident Ups Student Deaths to 3
With the death of Edward Christenson, a 21-year-old Lawrence junior, who was killed in a car accident this weekend, the student traffic fatality total rose to three for this school year.
In relation to last year's total, the dean of men's office said this number is down some, but relating it to the average city the size of the University, the number is considerably higher.
Lawrence Chief of Police John Hazlett said the city averages about one traffic death a year.
"So far this year we've been fortunate and no one has been killed on our streets. We hope we can maintain this throughout the year," he said.
Lawrence's 1950 population census figure is 23.351 residents.
Campus Police Chief Joe Skillman said he would expect the University average to be a little higher than for a city the same size.
"Unfortunately, because of the way students leave in a mass exodus for vacations, the traffic accident
number is expected to be a little bigger," he said.
However, he quickly added, his department is doing its best through the automobile safety checks and speed checks, to cut down this high accident rate.
Statewide, the 1956 Kansas traffic death total is 683, up nearly 100 from the previous year. Last year nationally over 40,000 persons were killed in automobile wrecks.

"The biggest challenge a man has to face is himself"
"Men and businesses are alike in one respect," says Gerald A. Parsons, 30-year-old marketing and personnel development specialist. "Their success depends to a great extent on how well they respond to challenge. And I've found that the biggest challenge a man has to face on his job is not the competition of others — but the far more important one of developing himself to his fullest capabilities.
"During my four years with General Electric, I've had plenty of opportunity for self-development. Challenging training assignments at five different locations within the company have given me a broader understanding of my career area. In my present job I have the benefit of working with experts, both in establishing long-range goals and in helping to achieve them. I've found that working toward future potential is vital in the development of successful businesses — and successful men."
Young men such as Gerry Parsons are important to the future of companies like General Electric and to the growth of America's dynamic, competitiveenterprise economy. Our nation's progress will depend more and more upon those forward-looking individuals who continue to develop to their fullest capabilities during their lifetime.
That is why General Electric provides a climate for individual progress — with opportunity for increasing knowledge and skills — for all of its employees, including 30,000 college graduates. For it is only as individuals meet the challenge of self-development that there continues to be progress for a business, an industry, or a nation.
