Pay Fees By Oct.1 Or You're Not Enrolled
Students who have not paid dues by Monday, Oct. 1, will have their enrollment canceled Tuesday, Oct. 2, James K. Hitt, registrar, said today.
"Everyone must pick up his fee card," Mr. Hitt emphasized, "even if fees are to be paid by someone else. No other person will pick up his fee card for him."
A fine of $2 a day goes into effect
Friday, Sept. 28. On Saturday, Sept.
29, and Monday, Oct. 1, there will be $2 more per day added in fines,
making a total of $6.
Tuition Costs
"Should a student wish to reenroll, it will cost him $6, plus a $5 late enrollment fee, or a total of $11 in fines, plus regular tuition." Mr. Hitt said.
"For resident students, tuition will be $90.50, and for non-resident students, it will be $165.50. Part-time students pay by the hour. Fees will be more if the student has been fined or has been assessed for other reasons, such as a non-music major who uses practice rooms." Mr. Hitt explained.
Students enrolled for work off campus and who will not be on campus during the regular days may pay fees by mail if this privilege was requested at the time of enrollment, Mr. Hitt added. Fees which are mailed must reach the registrar's office by Monday, Oct. 1. The penalty will be $2 a day for late payment of fees.
Placement Examinations Undergraduate students who are new on the campus must take placement examinations, Mr. Hitt said. These examinations were given throughout the summer, and on September 6 and 7. Free makeup time was scheduled for Thursday and for today. Students must pay a $2 fine for failure to take the placement examination.
Placement Examinations
Any new student must take a physical examination, whether he is an undergraduate or graduate, Mr. Hitt said. Physical examinations were scheduled during enrollment week and a free makeup day was scheduled for last Saturday. Mr. Hitt said a $5 penalty will be assessed a student for a later physical examination.
Students who fail to complete the physical examination and placement examinations by Monday, Oct. I will be withdrawn from classes, Mr Hitt said.
The Student Directory will be out in six or eight weeks, Business Manager Hulse Wagner, Hutchinson senior, said today.
Student Directory Out Within 8 Weeks
"The registrar's office is compiling and checking the lists for the directory now and it will take three or four weeks to print," Wagner said. A temporary directory will be issued to organized houses within a week or 10 days.
There are 6,970 hospitals in the United States.
GM Officials To Visit Campus
J. E. Chope, director of the General Motors college scholarship plan, and W. E. Wilson, manager of the Buick-Oldsmobile-Pontiac assembly plant in Kansas City, will be on the campus Tuesday to confer with University officials about the scholarship program and to meet with six recipients of General Motors scholarships.
Freshmen—Virginia Church, Coffeeville; James Foreman, Oklahoma City, Okla., and Dennis Heffner, Dodge City.
They are:
Sophomores-George Dodd, Oceanlake, Ore.; Dale Hartung, Junction City, and Donna Walker, Wichita.
Recipients are selected by the University Aids and Awards Committee and amounts depend upon the financial needs of students.
The scholarship program was started a year ago when three freshmen were selected under a plan for three new students a year.
KU Artistry On Store Front
A unique piece of wrought iron sculpture made in a University of Kansas studio may now be seen on the front of the rebuilt Pegus Department store in Hutchinson.
The two 17-ft. high spikes of wheat, symbolizing Hutchinson's position in Kansas agriculture, result from collaboration by Bernard "Poco" Frazier, K.U. alumnus and noted sculptor, who is now working here, and Elden Tefft, assistant professor of design.
To construct the three-headed wheat spikes, Frazier and Teft used more than 1,000 individual pieces of iron. The leaves are not solid but are built up in a filigree pattern so light may penetrate and prevent any opaqueness in the show, Frazier said.
The two sculptors worked together on the idea and design of the project. Tefft did most of the actual construction.
Open house will be held by the Graduate Club in the basement of Henley House from 8 to 11 p.m. Sunday. Nominations for officers at 9 p.m. will be followed-by dancing.

FIREMAN, SPARE THAT TREE-A grass fire at 1503 Crescent Rd. Thursday was quickly snuffed out by the Lawrence Fire department. Fire Chief John Miller, foreground, and a fireman extinguished the blaze which caused minor damage. The property on which the fire started is owned by H. B. Hungerford, former
professor of entomology who retired last year.
Debate Squad Adds 10
The University debate squad added about 10 new members to 11 returning debaters from the 1955-56 squad Thursday night. Kim Giffin, associate professor of speech and drama and squad coach, said he could use a few more debaters.
"We feel it's impossible to have too many debaters on hand, and since we require no previous debating experience, we would like to encourage the novices, especially female debaters," he said.
Interested students should see or call Prof. Giffin of Will Linkugel, instructor of speech and drama and assistant debate coach, in 5 Green, from 3 to 5 p.m., Monday or Tuesday.
The following are squad members:
William Hagman, Pittsburg and Vernon Shull, Colby, seniors; Jack Gorelik and Brad Lashbrook, Kansas City, Kan., Kenneth Irby, Ft. Scott, Mickey Mills, McPherson, Ralph Seger, Topeka, Mike Grove, Larned, John Knightly, Hutchinson, and Ray Riepen, Overland Park, juniors.
Zoologists To Hold Picnic
New members of the department of zoology of the Museum of Natural History will be guests at a picnic at 4:30 p.m. Sunday in Clinton Park. All staff members, graduate students, and their families are invited and are asked to bring their own food.

Meet The Western Civ Instructors
By RAY WINGERSON
(Daily Kansai Editorial Editor)
A Western Civilization student enrolls for the required discussion group, attends the one-hour weekly session and, unfortunately, finishes the course knowing less about his instructor than does a student in any other course.
At least the general student knows vaguely how his professors come by their jobs and what their academic standings are. But what about the Western Civilization assistant instructors who aren't full time faculty members but graduate students for the most part?
In the department this semester is a 29-member staff. Nine of them are faculty members from other schools and departments who handle one discussion group each; three are regular members of the department, and the remaining 17 are the assistant instructors of whom little is known.
Assistants are chosen by a subcommittee of the department's general committee composed of representatives from the Schools of Education and Journalism and from the departments of history, economics, political science, sociology, psychology, and philosophy.
The sub-committee selects assistant instructors through applications which are distributed both here and at other major universities. With minor exceptions, all are graduate students, but Prof. Francis Heller, director of the program, said that the use of an undergraduate is sometimes necessary when graduate students are not available.
Selection is based upon the applicant's full command of the subject matter the discussions cover, and preference is given to those who have teaching experience or who intend to become teachers.
Essentially, the position is a parttime job which might appeal to KU graduates or to graduates from other institutions who want to study at KU.
The salary ranges from $1,400 to $1,600 for nine months. The estimated time an assistant instructor gives to his eight classes of six students each is 20 hours a week.
Included in this figure is a 2-hour inter-departmental discussion which the Western Civilization staff holds to discuss readings due the following week. Prof. Heller said that getting together and talking over the readings helps the assistants to clarify their own thinking on the subject matter.
The discussion-group method is now one year old, having replaced the proctorial system where no grade was given and where students held bi-weekly, 20-minute conferences with proctors.
After a year's experience with the discussion program, Flof. Heller said he feels students like it better and are also better prepared for the examination.
The instructors follow:
Loy Bilderback, Mrs. Myrta Budke,
Mrs. Henrietta Cox, Frederick
K. Cross, Duane Guy, Jerry Hanken,
George DeVries Klein, Mrs. Natalie
Jarmon, Richard C. McClain.
Mrs. Bettie Michel, William R. Orlebeke Jr., Charles R. Osborn, Sami N. Saliba, George Sheldon, Robert L. Skinner, Mrs. Carolyn Swift, Samuel, Stayton,
Allen Hickey, Liberal, William Summers, Wichita, Neal Logan, Garden City, Leonard Parkinson, Scott City, and Don Bowen, Salina, sophomores; William Sheldon, Salina, Evelyn Kormarek, Ellinwood, Ted Hall, Garden City, Ray Nichols Jr., Lawrence, Rosalie Ann Gibson, Webster Groves, Mo., and James Taylor, Loma Linda, Calif., freshmen.
KU Young GOP To Hear Nixon
KU Collegiate Young Republicans will have an opportunity to hear and see Vice President Richard Nixon at a Republican rally at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, at the Memorial Auditorium, Kansas City Mo.
Chartered busses will leave the Student Union at 6 p.m. Any member of the club may go by having his membership card with him for identification upon entering the busses. Non-members may buy membership at the busses and still attend the rally. The busses will return to Lawrence by 10:30 p.m.
Refreshments will be served at the rally.
Ex-Kansan Editor Visits Campus
