McCarthy Rites In Senate Chamber
WASHINGTON — (UP) — Funeral services for Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy who died unexpectedly at 47, will be held Monday, probably in the Senate Chamber where he rose to fame and, later, was formally condemned by his colleagues. The Wisconsin Republican died at Bethesda Naval Hospital late Thursday.
Senate leaders conferred with Mrs. McCarthy who indicated a desire that funeral services be held in the Senate Chamber at 10 a.m. EDT Monday. Burial will be in the McCarthy family plot at Appleton, Wis., probably Tuesday. Senate Democratic leader Lyndon B. Johnson said the Senate will meet briefly at noon Monday and then adjourn out of respect to Sen. McCarthy.
Truman 'Very Sorry'
Former President Truman, whose administration was bitterly attacked by McCarthy, said he was "very sorry" to hear of his death and would send condolences to the family.
"Tm at odds with a lot of people but that doesn't mean I hate them." Mr. Truman told reorters. "Let's not die up a lot of old dead horses."
Eisenhower Sympathetic President Eisenhower, who had trouble with the Senator almost from the beginning of the GOP President's first term, joined Mrs. Eisenhower last night in sending profound sympathies to Mrs. McCarthy on the grievous personal loss she has sustained." He also sent a personal telegram to Mrs. McCarthy.
Adlai E. Stevenson, two-time democratic Presidential candidate who also was bitterly attacked by Sen. McCarthy, said "I think I'd better not comment."
McCarthy made his last stand before the nation Jan. 13 on ABC's nationally-televised "Press Conference."
John M. McCann, Shawnee junior,
has received $700 in awards from the
ArmoDrainage and Metal Products Co., Inc. of Middleton, Ohio.
His death could not affect control of the Senate, which now lies with the Democrats by one vote. Gov. Vernon Thomson of Wisconsin was thought likely to call a special election to fill the vacancy. A Republican winner in normally-Republican Wisconsin would still leave the GOP in the minority.
Student Wins $700 Cash
Special Election Likely
McCann received $200 for a report on the solution of several practical drainage problems.
An expense paid trip to Middleton April 19 and 20 for interviews and to compete for national honors with students from nine other schools resulted in an award of $500 and a six-week, expense-paid trip to all types of construction projects during the summer.
Tom Sawyer Accepted By London Academy
Tom Sawyer, Topeka senior, has been accepted by the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London for a 2-year term.
Sawyer, who received the letter of acceptance Thursday, went to New York two weeks ago to compete in auditions with 150 other applicants. He was one of 10 chosen by the judges.
"This is one chance in a million," Sawyer said. "And I couldn't have done it without the help of Allen Crafton who helped me with the audition pieces." Mr. Crafton is professor of speech and drama.
For the audition, Sawyer was required to memorize two short scenes, one chosen by the judges and one chosen by himself. The first scene was from George Bernard Shaw's "Pygmalion" in which he played the role of Prof. Higgins. He played the same role in the University Theatre's production during the 1955-56 season. The scene he chose to do was the death-bed scene of John of
Gaunt from Shakespeare's "Richard II."
Leo G. Carroll of the television series, "Topper," was chairman of the audition committee.
Sawyer, who is majoring in drama and journalism has appeared in University Theatre productions and has written drama reviews for the Daily Kansan this year.

Dean Moreau Honored At Law Banquet
Over 300 attended the annual Law Day banquet honoring Dean F. J. Moreau of the School of Law who resigned.
He stressed the importance of a good liberal education and broad intellectual background in his advice to students.
Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy expressed his appreciation for the twenty years of service given by Dean Moreau.
At the banquet, Delmas C. Hill, judge of the U.S. District Court, 10th District, spoke, and Chancellor Murphy paid tribute to Dean Moreau. Joan Stafford, St. Joseph, Mo., sophomore, was crowned "Miss Res Ipsa Loquitur."
Chancellor Murphy pointed out several achievements like the creation of an outstanding law library, the establishment of the Law Review, the extension of the curriculum, and the molding of a fine faculty.
Dean Moreau spoke briefly to the group. He mentioned that he had many things to be thankful for and that his long association with KU was one of his finest experiences.
"We are deeply in your debt," Chancellor Murphy said. "The fact that you are resigning as dean is balanced by the fact that as professor you will be with us for some years to come."
Portrait Given
DEAN MOREAU
Liberal Education
Dean Moreau was presented a portrait of himself by John J. Jurcyk, Kansas City, Kan., third-year law student. In presenting the portrait he spoke of the dean's achievements as a teacher.
"You may retire as dean but you may be sure that when KU law students gather, your words will abide in their hearts," Jurcyk said.

Molded Lines
"What distinguishes one lawyer from another is his educational background," he said. "If you have a good foundation you can build a good building," he added.
Judge Hill, the banquet's main speaker, said:
"I would say that one out of three lawyers practicing in Kansas studied under Dean Moreau. He has played a great role in molding their lives."
