Apathy, 'Junkets' By ASC Criticized
The practice of sending students to national meetings and lack of student support of existing campus organizations were criticized by Clifford P. Ketzel, assistant professor of political science, in a Daily Kansan interview Tuesday.
"It seems to me that we should have more student support of existing campus organizations interested in national and international affairs, rather than occasionally sending campus politicians to national meetings in the same area." Prof. Ketzel said.
Prof. Ketzel referred to a recent trip by two students to the Student Council on National Affairs meeting last month at Texas A&M, College Station, Tex.
He criticized the "junkets" by "campus politicians," saying there are "just as many worthwhile organizations on the KU campus that aren't being used to their full capacity."
CLIFFORD KETZEL
He blamed the lack of student interest on a "general apathy." He said that students are "more interested in the extracurricular activities around campus than they are in worthwhile clubs."
"In my memory, I don't recall any student, except one, who was active in student government and still participated in the former college council on the U.N." Prof. Ketzel said. The council was a mock general assembly of the UN which has been held at KU in the past.
'Never Had Representative'
"The ASC, to my knowledge, has never had a representative on the planning committee for Political Emphasis Week," he said.
"For the student who is really interested in national and international affairs, the International Club is always on the lookout for American students interested in
participating in their varied activities." Prof. Ketzel continued.
He also pointed to the Young Democrats and Young Republicans as groups to stimulate interest in nation-wide and world-wide affairs.
Better Use of Monev
"Perhaps some of the money used to send delegates to these meetings might be used to bring authorities to this campus, since this is one of the so-called attractions of these national meetings," he said.

Miss Virginia Copeland, who will sing the principal soprano role of Annina in the University Theatre's production of Menotti's "Saint of Bleecker Street" in March, is now filling several engagements in Europe.
Miss Copeland sang the title role in the Richard Strauss opera "Salome" in Barcelona, Spain, on December 28. While there she will also perform in either "Eugene Onegin" or "The Saint of Bleecker Street." She starred in the original New York production of "The Saint" in 1955.
Dr. Lewin Goff, director of the
University Theatre, said, "We are fortunate that Miss Copeland, busy as she now is, consented to portray in the KU production the role that she created and so often has sung."
Persons who have not yet purchased season tickets to the major series of the University Theatre may still do so. Three performances remain. Besides the opera there will be George Axelrod's "Seven Year Itch" and Shaw's "Man and Superman."

Sleep Means A Lot To Some
The pillow was on the bed of the sleeping sorority sister. When she awakened, she muttered, "Wouldn't you know it would be my pillow?" and turned over and went back to sleep.
A sorority house nearly called the fire department about 3 this morning.
The women sniffed the furnace, tapped the walls for hot places, looked for flames. At last the "fire" was discovered. A lighted lamp had fallen on a pillow, causing the feathers to smolder.
The women awoke when a burning odor filled their rooms. They searched frantically for the "fire," with the exception of one woman, She slept peacefully.

Murphy Urges KU Pay Hike
5% Raise Not For All, Ways-Means Group Told
Chancellor Franklin Murphy made a personal plea to the state Senate Ways and Means Committee in Topeka today to grant Kansas University faculty members a 5 per cent salary raise next year.
"The 5 per cent figure is merely some concept of the magnitude of what is needed," he said. "It has nothing to do with how much one person will receive."
Five Bands At Jazz Concert
The newly organized KU Jazz Club will present "Jazz on Campus" at 8 p.m. Saturday in the Student Union Ballroom.
Five local groups ranging from 4 to 11-piece bands will play, said club president Don Conard, Garden City senior. The bands will play four or five selections each, including "A Foggy Day," "Castle Rock," "September Song," "Crazy Rhythm" and "C-Jam Blues."
The five combs are headed by; Conard; John Carlos of Lawrence; Al Flores, Lawrence senior; Ed Fording, Kansas City, Mo., senior and Dean Perry of Lawrence. Conard said the club plans a Big 8 Jazz Festival this spring, competing with bands from the other conference schools.

He said a salary raise would not mean that every faculty member would receive 5 per cent more. The money, if granted, would be parcelled out, some getting more, some getting no salary raise, he said.
"Out of 10 per cent for salary raises you gave us last year, some faculty members got as high as 35 per cent, some 2 per cent, some none," Chancellor Murphy said.
The issue of an increase for the state's five college faculties was pushed to the fore when Gov. George Docking said he probably would not grant it in his budget.
Lezislature Could Restore Raise
The budget session of the Legislature opens Tuesday and runs to Feb. 14.
The Legislature could restore it. Last year Gov. Docking's recommended 5 per cent was raised to 10 per cent in committee action.
"We really should ask for a 20 per cent increase, instead of just 5, if we were to bring us up to the national average," the Chancellor said.
Chancellor Murphy said the salary scale at KU now was 20 per cent behind the average of other land grant and state institutions in the nation.
Budget Session Opens Tuesday
The Ways and Means Committee, which studies the governor's budget, will listen to the heads of the other four colleges the remainder of his week.
"Why should we ask Kansas tax payers to pay for teachers retirements?"
Chancellor Murphy said KU was competing with other schools, and lagged behind in salaries and far behind in a "scandalous" retirement plan.
Sen. T. A. Sanborn (R-Belleville) asked the chancellor:
"We are in direct competition with other institutions that have fund retirement programs," Chancellor Murphy answered. "To keep our teachers, I presume we have to offer comparable security."
