Students Endorse ASC Proposal
Unanimous approval of the All Student Council proposal to admit students to the freshman-varsity basketball game, Nov. 22, on their ID cards was expressed by students interviewed by the University Daily Kansan Thursday.
Those interviewed and their comments:
Most of the students thought since the ID card states that it provides admission to all athletic events they should be allowed to use it for the freshman-varsity game. They also pointed out that the number of spectators would be larger if students were admitted on their ID cards.
Mary Beth Noyes, Troy senior— "It states on the ID card that it provides admission to all athletic events and the freshman-varsity basketball game is certainly one of our most outstanding athletic events of the year."
Ann Markwell, Gashland, Mo. senior—"I definitely don't think we should have to pay for the freshman-varsity game. It should be part of what we receive with our ID cards. The athletic fund should get money elsewhere.
Ben Grant, Lawrence senior—"It is an excellent idea to be admitted on ID cards. Supposedly our ID cards entitle us to all athletic events and this should be included. We consistently pay higher fees and I think we should get something for it."
"It would be a break for the students not to have to pay for the game. Besides the freshmanvarsity game is an outgrowth of school spirit."
Charles Tuttle, Topeka sophomore — "Being a student I think it's ideal to be admitted to the game on my ID card because I won't have to spend money. We're admitted free to other basketball games. Why should this be an exception?"
Flaine Morrison, Fort Scott senior — "I think we should be admitted on our ID cards because of the statement on the back of them which says they are for all athletic events. If we aren't, the statement shouldn't be put on the back of the card. More people would come if they got in free and the freshman team should be supported as well as the varsity squad."
John Rodgers, Paradise senior—"In theory the ID cards are supposed to admit students to all activities. Therefore we should be admitted to the freshman-varsity game on it"
Murphy To Speak At Dinner
"What is KU" will be the speech topic of Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy Thursday at a dinner meeting of KU alumni from the Greater Kansas City area.
'Song Of South Is Dance Theme For Flanagan
You can dance in the back yard of a southern plantation house to the music of Ralph Flanagan's orchestra playing on the deck of a river steamboat, at the Homecoming舞 Nov. 23.
Mr. Flanagan will sponsor a dance contest in which he picks the winners, who receive a trophy. Albums will be presented to runners-up.
The theme of the dance will be "Song of the South." Behind the orchestra will be a huge backdrop of a steamboat, as if the orchestra were on the deck of the boat.
The cafeteria, two floors down from the ballroom, will be decorated as the inside of the steamboat. Music will be pined to the cafeteria to accommodate some of the overflow crowd which usually turns out for the Homecoming dance.
At the intermission of the dance the queen and her two attendants will be introduced and prizes for house decorations will be presented.
Members of the dance committee are Phil Stuart, Lawrence, general chairman, Susie Pope, Kansas City, Kan., ballroom decorations, juniors; Larry Marshall, Salina, publicity. Elizabeth Elvig, Lawrence, main decorations, Allen Compton, Kansas City, Mo., ticket reservations, Kay Morgan, Wichita, intermission, Peggy Guthrie, Prairie Village, chaperones, sophomore.
'Fontinalia' Exhibit Closes Wednesday
The exhibition "Fontinalia - The Art of the Fountain and the Fountain in Art," now on display in the Museum of Art, will end Wednesday. It honors the presentation of the Arthur D. Weaver memorial fountain to the University.

An All Student Council resolution recommending that students be allowed to see the freshmanvarsity basketball game and Jayhawk Follies on identification cards will be discussed Monday.

Game, Follies May Be Free To Students
The Finance Committee of the Athletic Board will discuss the resolution at 2 p.m. in the office of L.C. Woodruff, dean of students.
The resolution came after a 9 to 5 vote at the ASC meeting Tuesday. The game and the Follies will be held Friday night.
Bob Billings, Russell junior and student body president, who spoke against the resolution at the

meeting, said Thursday he had mixed emotions about the resolution.
He said about 2,000 students attended the event in the past.
Council members favoring the resolution claimed that students shouldn't be charged because their ID cards allow attendance to all athletic events.
A. C. Lonborg, director of athletics, said part of the money from the game and Follies goes to the athletic fund to pay for the athletic program and some goes to pay for part of the Homecoming cost.
"I was under the impression the game was an extra event that provided a chance to help finance our athletic program." Lonberg said.
Dean Woodruff, chairman of the Athletic Board, said the money from the event is needed to buy such things as prizes for house decorations and queens.
"Down through the years the game and Follies have developed a problem that possibly has to be resolved sometime," Dean Woodruff said, "but I believe the game hasn't been regarded as an athletic event over the years. It was more of a Homecoming show."

17 Flu Shots Given Thursday
"Aparently students think the flu danger is over because there has been no interest in taking shots," Dr. Ralph Canuteson, director of the health service, said this morning.
Only 16 first shots and 34 booster shots were given Thursday.
"We are still expecting a second- arv wave of Asian flu," Dr. Canuteson said. "If we don't have it I'll be a happy, but pretty poor prognosticator.
"We continue to have a fairly full house with mostly respiratory trouble, digestive ailments and some flu. There hasn't been a day we haven't had patients waiting in the hall."
There have been 868 patients in the hospital so far this year. Last year there had been 348 patients over the same period of time.
There were 53 patients, one over normal capacity, in the hospital Thursday. Three patients slept in the hall.
Ike Incapable To Manage World Affairs, Says Ise
When John Ise, professor emeritus of economics, was asked in a Daily Kansan interview Thursday if he had listened to President Eisenhower's speech Wednesday, he said no.
Dr. Ise said he believes the next war will be fought with guided missiles rather than planes, as they are faster.
"I don't know if I would want to listen to Ike," he said. "He doesn't know too much about world affairs and he is not usually very honest. I wouldn't believe anything he said uniess I already knew it."
"If Ike gets down to business in the next few years instead of worrying about politics we might have some defenses," he said.

Businessmen Surround Ike President Eisenhower has surrounded himself with rich businessmen, Dr. Ise said. The country would have been better off if Adlai Stevenson had been elected president, he said, because "Mr. Stevenson is a brilliant and able man who knows the international
Dr. Ise said he would rather trust a scientist on the subject.
One reason we are behind in the arms race is that we don't pay our scientists enough Dr. Ise said. Although Russia is a poor country it

honors and pays its scientists well. Congress is only willing to offer about $11,000 a year to our scientists, he said. Russia also lets her scientists know they are important and needed.
No Peace With Russia
"We won't have any peace with Russia for an indefinite period of time," Dr. Ise said. "They will work on getting the Middle East for awhile and then go to Africa. They are spending millions and millions of dollars to undermine the governments of the backward countries."
"It is ridiculous to talk about peace conferences. They won't stop until there is a Communist government everywhere." Dr. Ise said.
"People have got to learn or we won't have a democracy any longer. The colleges aren't doing much. Look how few they reach," he said "A professor has 50 students in his class while the Chicago Tribune reaches millions of people daily."
"If people would read good literature instead of only newspapers they would be better off," he said. Government is representative of the people and can't do much if the people are not informed, he added.
The Homecoming queen and her two attendants will be chosen tonight at a dinner with the judges. Their identities will be announced at a pep rally at 12:45 Monday.
231 KU Alumni In 'Who's Who'
KU ranks 24th among all universities and colleges in the U.S. in the total number of graduates whose names appear in "Who's Who in America."
The University has 231 graduates named in the latest edition.
Since many of the 23 colleges and universities ranking ahead of KU have more alumni, KU would be near the top of the list if the rankings were calculated on a percentage basis.
KU is the fourth in the percentage of engineering graduates who are listed in "Who's Who in Engineering in the U.S."
KU is ahead of such schools as Massachusetts Institute of Technology, California Institute of Technology, Cornell University, Stanford University, the University of Michigan and Yale University.
