City Teacher Found Dead
Funeral arrangements are still incomplete for Rawleigh Morgan, a Lawrence junior high school teacher, found dead in the garage of his Route 1 home yesterday, an apparent suicide.
The body was found by Mr. Archie Wolcott, also a teacher at the junior high school. Mr. Morgan's wife, Charlotte, a chemist at the Sunflower Ordance Works, had left for work. A son, Michael, 4, was still asleep.
Sheriff Dale Chappell said that the English and social studies teacher had left a note and reference to William Bryant's "Thanatopsis" which tries to explain his death.
The body is at the Cooper-Warren Mortuary.
After their mission's thatched root caught fire three time, the friars of San Luis Obispo de Tolosa—founded in 1723—decided to rebuild with tile, setting the traditional style for California missions.
Signs Of Spring
Don't let the studious attitudes of the girls in the photo at right fool you. They're members of a physical education lifesaving class and believe them, yesterday's weather (and today's) was a lifesaver. Most members of the group are poring over their books while seated on the steps of Robinson Gymnasium, but the far-away look in the eyes of the young lady on the right indicates that studying and the weather aren't what they used to be.
Above, buildings and grounds workmen install a new sign at the end of Memorial Drive. It replaces another sign which was removed after vandals tore off its metal letters. Vandals will have a tough time removing the new sign's letters, for they're chisled into the stone.

KU's Most Loyal Fans Are KUBBS,KUFFS
Among the most enthusiastic fans of KU athletic teams is a group officially known as the Kansas University Basketball Boosters, or the KUBBS.
It is a group of elementary and junior high school students who sit in the north bleachers of Allen Field House during the first games of the season.
Wayne Bly, Lawrence superintendent of recreation, is in charge of the program. The Recreation Commission works with the KU athletic department in handling the tickets, which cost $1 and are good for the first four home basketball games. The tickets are placed in a badge costing 25 cents, which can be used all the years that the student is in the program.
During the football season, the young KU rooters are called the Kansas University Future Fans, or the KUFFS. The arrangements for this group are similar to those for the KUBBS. They sit in a block in the north stadium for the first four or five home games. About 900 youngsters were in the KUFFS for
A block of seats is reserved for the KUBBS. This year the 630 students in the program used half of the north bleachers with some overflow.
the past football season.
The football program was started in October 1952 by the Recreation Commission and the KU athletic department. For the first few years the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce also sponsored it. The basketball program was started in 1955 when Allen Field House was completed.
"If the kids get the idea of following KU when they're young, they'll always follow KU, not only in athletics but in other activities," Mr. Bly said.
The youngsters are supervised by teachers and parents. They have their own rules and regulations, and any infraction can result in loss of the ticket.
Mr. Bly said many out of town youngsters whose parents come up for the games also buy tickets.
"We have several, for example, from Topeka and Emporia who have participated in the program," he added.
