Times Square Calm
Japanese Student 'Covers' American Election For JBC
His first presidential election found him in New York City last week, but Hirosi Shionozaki, Tokyo graduate student at KU, returned to classes Wednesday slightly disappointed.
The "sky sign" is the New York Times bulletin board on which lights spell out spot news. Shionozaki wrote five stories on the election and sent them to Tokyo. The stories were about New York City voters and how they cast their ballots. He spent four hours on a phone circuit to Tokyo reporting minute by minute progress on ballot counting.
Schionozaki went there to help cover the election for the Japan Broadcasting Corp., Toyko. He is on leave from JBC after having been a newswriter for three years in Tokyo. He is studying journalism here.
"I was impressed with the general system," Shionozaki said, "but it was not as enthusiastic as I expected. Voters were calm. I had heard there used to be a great crowd in Times Square. This time traffic was normal, and only about 1,000 persons were watching the sky sign."
"We beat any other news media in Japan," Shionozaki said, smiling.
After the election, he attended an emergency session of the U.N. General Assembly at the United Nations. The Hungarian question was being debated.
"There was no special progress," Shionozaki said. "The Russians were not cooperating. Their demand was to strike the question from the agenda."
Army ROTC Gets Green Uniforms
A new green uniform has been issued to all junior cadets and a few senior cadets in the Army ROTC.
This change is in line with an over-all change being made by the Army. In October, 1957 this uniform will be required for all officers on active duty. It is the second major uniform change that has been made by the Army since World War I.
Maj. Delbert L. Townsend, associate professor of military science, called the green uniform a "duty uniform." He said it is a "step in the direction the Chief of Staff wants to go to dress up the Army."
WAA To Hold Banquet
The Woman's Athletic Assn. will hold a hockey-basketball banquet in the Student Union Dec. 5. New members will be initiated, varsity teams announced and awards presented to outstanding players.
Geologists Attend National Meeting
Three members of the groundwater division of the KU Federal and State Geological Surveys are at Carlsbad Caverns, N.M., this week, attending a meeting of representatives of district offices of the U. S. Geological Survey Ground-Water Branch.
They are V. C. Fishel, in charge of the Kansas division; Charles Lane, and Kenneth Walters.
Talks will be given on the hydrology of limestone terraces and studies will be made of the formations at Carlsbad Caverns.
Newman Club Party Today
The Newman Club, Catholic student organization, will have a hayrack ride at 6:45 p.m. today. Members will meet at St. John's Catholic Church, 1229 Vermont St., and will go to the Emil Heck farm.
Panel Tells Of Foreign Study
A panel of six persons told experiences of a students' life abroad Wednesday at a discussion meeting sponsored by the International Club and the KU-Y international commission.
The talks centered on European countries, as Kent Mueller, Lawrence junior, spoke of the American summer school in Oslo, Norway, where he studied for one year.
Jane A. Heyle, Kansas City, Mo. senior, told of studying at the University of Paris. Youth hostels and boat trip to Europe were discussed by Phyllis Carter, Lawrence senior, and Gary O' Daffer, Lawrence freshman.
The average U.S. housewife walks 6 miles a day, but a hospital nurse logs 10 miles.
"Austria is a country where you can live inexpressively," Elisabeth Neubacher, Wieselbung, Austria, graduate student, said. "For 25 schillings, equivalent to an American dollar, you can eat five times in a student union at any Austrian university."
A square dance party, sponsored by the Student Union Activities and the Do-Si-Do Club of Lawrence, will be held from 8:30 to 11:30 p.m. Saturday in the Student Union Ballroom. The admission charge per couple will be 50 cents with an ID card.
Fabio Carniel, Trieste, Italy graduate student said. "Meals are cheaper and taste better in Europe."
