AWS Allotment Is Largest Item In Annual ASC Budget
(Editor's note: This article on the Associated Women Students is the first in a series of articles on the purposes and functions of the All Student Council. The ASC this year is operating on a budget of $7,037.11. The money comes from activity fees — $6,400—and a balance on hand of $837.11.
What the ASC does with the money, and what the ASC does for the student body, will be the subject of the series.)
The largest single item in the ASC budget is $2,544 for the Associated Women Students. AWS treasurer Mary Jo Pugh, Ferguson, Mo. senior, gave The Daily Kansan a list of AWS projects and activities that are financed by the money.
The Jay Sisters, a sophomore counselling group for freshman women, receive $220 per year. The Jay Sisters' allotment goes for correspondence, publications, publicity, and expenses for selection of next year's Sisters.
High School Leadership Day, held this year on Feb. 22, invites 90 to 95 high school senior girls from Kansas schools for a day on the KU campus. The girls hear lectures on leadership, are served a lunch and get a good look at KU. The program gets a $485 budget from AWS.
AWS allots $50 for its fall election for freshman representatives, and the spring election for the AWS Senate.
A total of $75 goes for miscellaneous expenses. This includes gifts, telegraphs, AWS posters, and the cost of the annual retreat.
An AWS Jayhawkier page costs $84, and office expenses are $120 a year. The office rent is $90 and the rest goes for office supplies.
The AWS budget for publications is $450. This includes publication of 3,000 copies of "Wise Words For Women" and AWS membership cards.
Fifty dollars is allotted for the intercollegiate AWS activities. Dues are $15 for membership in the national organization; $10 for mailing expenses, and $25 is allotted toward extending the AWS system to other
schools which express an interest in it.
The regional AWS convention, at Southern Methodist University March 21 this year, will draw a $500 appropriation. The money pays travel expenses for five KU delegates to the convention.
All Women's Day cost $205 this year. Over 1,600 women attended talks and a buffet luncheon during All Women's Day last fall. The money went for the luncheon, entertainment, and the speakers' travel expenses.
The AWS House of Representatives gets $200. The money is spent for an annual housemothers' party, a foreign students' Christmas party, a profit-making project to raise money for a KU scholarship, and various coffees and meetings during the year. Thirty dollars goes toward payment on a stencil machine.
At the state meeting of AWS at K-State this year, KU's AWS Senate and House and all Kansas schools which have the AWS system were represented. Also invited were representatives from other Kansas schools interested in the system. Expenses for this trip were $75.
Bring Your Own Car
Bill Wilson, Denver. Colo. senior in music education, is student teaching in a Kansas City grade school.
The other day his third grade students were unusually restless and rowdy during their lesson.
Unable to conduct and keep order at the same time, Wilson banged his baton on the podium in exasperation and said sharply. "Class is dismissed for the day. I'm sorry you didn't enjoy the lesson, but tomorrow come prepared to sing and behave."
The children, startled by his sternness, began to file out of the room quietly, all but two freckled-faced little boys who walked to the front.
One of them, his hands shoved deep in his pockets, looked up at Wilson and said respectfully, "Mr. Wilson, you can join our auto club just any time."
They Want Card Ideas
Tom Gee, Leavenworth junior and chairman of the inter-club pep committee, said. The contest will be sponsored jointly by the KuKus. Jan Janez, Froshhawks, and Red Peppers.
A contest to secure new ideas for card displays at KU football games will be held Wednesday through Saturday.
"The purpose of the contest is to secure the ideas of the students to see what they would like to have us (the pep clubs) do in the way of fresh and different card displays," said Al Gardner, Masterson, Tex. junior.
Contest forms will be available at Strong, Malott and Lindley balls and the Kansas Union. They will also be distributed to organized houses. Students are to sketch their ideas on the forms and drop them into the ballot boxes stationed in these buildings.
"We want the sketches to be kept simple," Gardner said. "Just the basic idea is necessary. If the sketch interests us, we will then work to develop it," he said.
The prizes are a pizza dinner for
Zoology Instructor Added To Faculty
The Zoology department has added Richard F. Johnston to the faculty as an instructor. He came to KU from New Mergon A&M College.
Dr. Johnston also will serve as assistant curator of birds in the Museum of Natural History.
Dr. Johnston fills the position left vacant last fall by the return of Dr. Harrison Tordoff to the University of Michigan.
Dr. Johnston earned his A.B., M.A and Ph.D. degrees from the University of California at Berkeley.
Although the moose is more amphibious than the caribou and feeds in water while the caribou feeds on land, the caribou's buoyant coat makes it a better swimmer.

Track Star Gets Allen Scholarship
Kent Lee Floerke, Kansas City Kan. senior received the 1958 Dr Forrest C. Allen award.
The Allen scholarship is given to the graduating senior who has the highest grade average for seven semesters among those competing in intercollegiate athletics. Floerke, a track star, has a 2.5 grade point average. He is majoring in sociology and will do graduate study in the field.
The scholarship is income from a $1,000 endowment created by friends of the emeritus KU basketball coach when in 1942 they purchased a war bond for the fund. Blaine Hollinger, basketball and track letterman from Russell, received the first award a year ago.
Student tickets are now available for mezzo-soprano Mildred Miller's concert at 3:30 p.m. March 16 in the University Theatre. This will be the final presentation in the KU Concert Course season.

He'll Review N.Y.Shows
John Beaufort, New York theater critic of The Christian Science Monitor, will review the current Broadway theatrical scene when he speaks at 2 p.m. Friday in Swarthout Recital Hall on "The Critic's Happy Lot."
Among the backgrounds of plays to be included in Mr. Beaufort's lecture are the North Carolina of Thomas Wolfe's "Look Homeward Angel," the Oklahoma of William Inge's "The Dark at the Top of the Stair," the Iowa of Meredith Willis's "The Music Man," the New York slums of "West Side Story," and the British tenements of John Osborne's "Look Back in Anger."
He will discuss such performances as those by Helen Hayes in "Time Remembered," Lena Horne in "Jamaica," and Sir Laurence Olivier in "The Entertainer."
In addition to working as The Christian Science Monitor's dramatic critic, Mr. Beaufort heads that newspaper's 50th anniversary observance program this year.
What Caused Power Shortage?
During the power shortage on the campus Thursday a faculty member wandered into The Daily Kansan newsroom, looked at the students gathered there in the semidarkness. He studied the group working with only a little light creeping through the windows.
"I think Docking has just gone too far this time," he said.

BEHIND THE SCENES—Ken Baker, Helmetta, N. J. junior, shows it takes more than the actors and actresses to put on a performance as he works on one of the sets for "The Saint of Bleeker Street."
18 Schools In Tourney
Thirty-two teams from 18 schools will participate in the second annual Heart of America Debate Tournament to be held here March 12-15.
One of the highlights of the tournament will be an English-style debate between Harvard University debaters and the KU team of Kenneth Irby, Fort Scott senior, and Ray Nichols, Lawrence sophomore. They will debate the question, "Resolved: That Killian is to be preferred to Keats."
Another unique feature of the tournament is the opportunity for the debaters to have their arguments analyzed by experts. Dr Kurt Braun, professor of economics at Howard University, Washington, D.C., and Kermit Eby, professor of social sciences at the University of Chicago, have agreed to analyze the arguments and evidence and hold an open forum for the debaters and
