Taking A Vacation Trip?—
'Nikita' Seeking Ride To The Moon
By JOAN JEWETT

(Of The Daily Kansan Staff)
Most students will pack up and head for home when classes end Wednesday. But a few, influenced by the space age, have indicated they will shoot the moon. Others say they want to wallow in the swamplands or be locked up behind bars during spring vacation.
The Student Union Activities travel bureau has posted cards to be signed by students who either. "Have Car—Will Travel." or who want to find someone, "Going My Way."
One student signed a list in the Kansas Union, "Nikita," and indicated that he would be on the moon to see the sunrise Easter morning. He had no transportation, but might possibly get a ride—at least part of the way—from "Explorer 1" whose destination is "Inter. Orbit."
Another student is offering a ride to "Sing Sing," but he's not sure he can get away by the time classes resume.
Might Miss Class
Other pranksters seem to want a less exciting vacation. "A. Alligator" needs a lift to the "Okefinokee Swamp". Mary Smith wants to go "just anywhere." "E. Gurrillowites" needs a way to "Narobi, S. Africa."
If you want to go to Chicago, "call VI 3-2700—let it ring three times and ask for Joe."
Peter Cottontail" would be glad to drop someone off along the "Bunny Trail" route, but he doesn't have room for "long hairs!"
No one seems to be particular about the make and model of cars, but there's one order in for a "fast car" headed for the "maternity ward."
Anyone who has trouble getting water hot enough to boil Easter eggs should contact "M. Furdlev"—he's going to "Hell." Those who prefer the opposite climate should call "Frigid-0000 and ask for Hal."
He'll Boil It Hard
Most of the ride requests listed in the Union and in Strong Hall seem legitimate. Marilyn J. Beardsley, Liberal senior and travel bureau

Editor's Editorial In Monthly Paper
An editorial written by Evelyn Hall, Wichita senior and Daily Kansan associate editor, appears this month in National Student News, a monthly paper published in Philadelphia, Pa.
The editorial, entitled "Stranger on Campus," deals with students' failure to take advantage of the opportunity to know foreign students and learn about their cultures.

"Nyet" is the Russian word for "no." It may be an odd word to you, but the people of Red-oppressed East Europe know it well . . . hear it every hour, every day. "Nyet!" to the right to read a truthful newspaper. "Nyet!" to the right to speak an opinion. "Nyet!" to every form of freedom.
You must help or the Reds will tear freedom to shreds in these small, countries. Your dollars are needed to keep Radio Free Europe on the air, so its 29 transmitters can continue spreading the truth behind the Iron Curtain, destroying Communist lies, keeping hope of freedom alive.
Why are your dollars needed? Because Radio Free Europe is a private organization, supported by the American people. Your dollars help pay for its transmitter equipment, announcers, news analysts. Don't let the Reds crush freedom behind the Iron Curtain! Start sending your truth dollars to Crusade for Freedom, care of your local Postmaster!
