TAKES ONE TO FLAMENCO—Jose Greco, Spanish Flamenco dancer,
will perform at 8:20 tonight in Hoch Auditorium.
Mrs. Georgia Neese Clark Gray, Democratic national committeewoman from Richland, Kan., said last night Americans lack individualism and non-conformism.
She spoke at a dinner meeting of Phi Delta Kappa and Pi Lambda Theta, education fraternities.
"If America is to maintain its cherished liberties, as they are known, there must always be a place for the nonconformist," Mrs. Gray said.
Nonconformists Needed-Gray
KU's radio and television department filmed parts of Mrs. Gray's address for later viewing on WIBW-TV.
Mrs. Gray, who has been a committeewoman since 1936, was U.S. treasurer in 1949-53.
Clubb Offers Reward
Merrell D. Clubb, professor of English, is offering a reward to anyone who returns the tan plastic case he left in front of the Music and Dramatic Arts building last night. The case contains a projector and slides of the Grand Canyon and High Sierra that are irreplaceable.
Docking Criticizes University

could be the fault of the instruction. Students are being taught to emote. What is being taught in the way of ethical conceits?" he asked.
"I think it is about time they started cleaning up over there," he stated. However, when he was asked about this statement later he said he meant it to be taken as a question.
"I'm criticizing both the administration and the Young Republicans," he said. Gov. Docking concluded by saying that he felt that the KU students should be taught some ethics and manners.
Met With Opposition
While he was speaking of this incident, Gov. Docking's voice was raised and he was visibly stirred.
The governor said he has encountered much opposition from the University administration. He named only one administrator, Fred Ellsworth, the executive secretary of the alumni association, whose son the governor identified as Robert Ellsworth, the head of the Douglas County Republicans.
"They're tied up together; for example, Robert Ellsworth, chairman of the Douglas County Republicans, is the son of Fred Ellsworth, executive secretary of the alumni association," he said.
Referring to an article in the Daily Kansas comparing faculty salaries in Kansas with those of other states, Gov. Docking said he could produce an equal number of states with salaries lower than Kansas.
Refers to 'Phony' Statistics
Refers to Phony Statistics "I'm getting awfully tired of phony statistics. Your schools are supposed to teach ethical conduct," he said.
The big thing in teaching is tenure, Gov. Docking said. He said teachers have the strongest union in existence, the American Association of University Professors.
"It is hard to fire a teacher unless he has done something shameful in his community," he said.

He said that teaching is not sufficiently competitive. He said that if in following a survey of Kansas teachers, most are found to be doing a good job, he would be in favor of a pay boost.
He also discussed figures rating Kansas' elementary and secondary school systems among the lowest in the country according to the amount of state aid per capita.
The governor said people have asked him to help put Kansas' schools at the top of the list, which ranks Delaware first, Georgia second and Alabama third.
"I have told them if they wanted schols like those of Georgia and Alabama I would be glad to give them that kind of schools. So far I haven't had any replies to this proposal," he said.
As the students stood to leave, Gov. Docking said the press conference was different than any he had ever had.
He sternly warned the KU journalists to quote him correctly.
"I've been misquoted more in Law-
rence than any other place," he said.
"One of the newspapers in your town has consistently misquoted me for the past four years," he said. He did not name the newspaper.

Panhellenic Script Change
Campus radio station KUOK had to change its program schedule last night when three sorority rush chairmen refused to appear on "Editorial Time."
Newell K. Maag, news director of KUOK, planned to ask the women this question:
"What do you think of the new
Panhellenic rush rules and why?"
The Panhellenic council told Maag at 4:30 p.m. yesterday that it had decided in a noon meeting not to speak on the program. The program is broadcast at 7:40 p.m.
The rush chairmen said they would not appear because of a picture of rushees and actives published in the Daily Kansan last week. Rushees should not appear with actives in the public eye, they commented.
"I was told the opinions would be of the Panhellenic group, not of the individuals of the organization," Maag said.
Miss Emily Taylor, dean of women, said this morning the council does not feel its members can give their own opinions while speaking in the name of the council.
"They can speak as individuals on any issue," she said.
