Writer Says Murphy Will Stay Here If Politicians 'Let Him Run a School'
If the politicians will "let him run a school" it is unlikely that Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy will leave the University for a higher paying job in education.
This is the opinion expressed by Mark Clutter, Wichita Beacon editorial writer, in the second in a series of articles on the role of KU in the life and future of Kansas.
The subject of the chancellor's future at the University came up in an interview Clutter held with Dr. Murphy last week.
"My enthusiasm for Kansas makes it unlikely that he will yield to offers to head another university at a salary many thousands of dollars in excess of what he receives here."
Chancellor Murphy told Mr. Clutter the talents of the young men and women must not be wasted by failing to provide educational facilities to which they are entitled.
The chancellor told Mr. Clutter that the University can become a great center of scholarship and research. But a greater effort is necessary if the "big leap upward" is to occur. It is a matter of putting first things first.
It was pointed out that the Board of Regents was refused $2.4 million for state educational facilities, but a 16-mile super highway costing $18 million was okayed.
Chancellor Murphy said the future of Kansas is linked directly to the way Kansans meet the challenge of higher education.
"Wherever you find great industrial strength,you find great emphasis on higher education," the chancellor said."The two go together. Industrial development is dependent on research and trained people."
Chancellor Murphy is hopeful that the University can be a leader in the development of scholarly activity in the Trans-Mississippi region. The University hopes to establish centers of co-ordinated studies of Latin America, East Europe, Russia and the Far East which would prepare Americans to deal adequately with diplomatic and business problems abroad.
The immediate problem for the University is the tightening of academic disciplines for all students and the complete utilization of the talents of gifted and average students.

Thinklish translation: This magazine is put out by a bunch of troublishers. Their other monthly offerings: a horror series (feariodical), pin-up pictures (leeriodical) and a fortune tellers' gazette (seeriodical). Naturally, none carries ads mentioning the honest taste of fine tobacco. Who'd want Lucky Strike mixing with that crowd? As for the scandal sheet, it's a meariodical which deserves nothing but snublicity.
