Budget Talk UpToRegents
Murphy Denies Statement On Docking Economy Call
BY LARRY BOSTON
(Daily Kansan Editorial Editor)
Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy told The Daily Kansan this morning that he "categorically denied" statements attributed to him in the Lawrence Daily Journal-World Wednesday about Gov. Docking's recent remarks concerning the budgets of state colleges.
"From now on, any comment on
"From now on, any comment on such problems must come from the Board of Regents," Dr. Murphy said. "My office has nothing more to say."
The Journal-World quoted three paragraphs of statements attributed to Dr. Murphy and commented "this marked probably the first time Dr. Murphy has been publicly critical of any Docking action or comment."
The Associated Press today quoted the chancellor as saying: "I have not even talked to anyone from the Journal-World today." (Wednesday)
Dolph Simons Jr., associate publisher of the Journal-World, said the paper was standing by all quotes attributed to the chancellor in Wednesday's paper.
Stand By Quotes
The Journal-World quoted Dr. Murphy as saying: "If the state school situation should develop as some would like to have it, Kansas indeed will have the best highways in the country. But they will merely serve as highways for the state's youth to drive to better education institutions in other states.
"There are those who evidently think Kansas can afford only a mediocre university or an 'average' or 'adequate' institution. But I maintain that Kansas cannot afford not to have the best possible state institutions. Otherwise, we will lose our outstanding young men and women to other states."
Called For Budget Cut
The alleged statements came after Gov. Docking met last week with the Board of Regents and asked them to review the state's educational needs, with an eye to cutting down expenses. Earlier in the week the governor notified the Regents that they would present the budgets of state colleges at budget hearings coming up soon. The administrative heads of the five state colleges have presented the budgets in the past.
The chancellor added this statement to his denial:
"We face very complex and growing problems relating to education in Kansas. The complexity of the problems naturally lead to different points of view as to solution. All interested and responsible persons must co-operate in statesman-like fashion to solve these problems to the end that Kansas youth is always guaranteed the highest quality of educational opportunity.
"Certainly I and the faculty of Kansas University intend to do just that as we always have tried to do."
Kansas State Student Confesses To Theft
Following a lie detector test in Topeka, a 23-year-old Kansas State College student has admitted to taking $2,180 from the Student Union safe. Sheriff Gilbert Peterson of Riley county announced today.
The student was Severt Earl Anderson of White City, Kansas. He was manager of the union's games. Anderson said he returned to the union after it had closed Sep 22. He took the money from the safe, after discovering that a cashier had failed to lock it, he said.
Weather
Continued fair and warm tonight with southerly winds 20 to 40 miles an hour west portion and local blowing dust. Friday fair and warm east, increasing cloudiness west portion, turning cooler northwest by late afternoon or evening with light rain likely. Low tonight 55 to 65. High Friday in 80's.
Seating Problem Plank Nailed On Vox Platform
The crowded seating problem at football and basketball games will be on Vox's platform for the Fall campaign, said Jim Austin. Topeka sophomore, and temporary president of Vox.
"The basketball games are the worst problem," he said. "Many don't go because they can never get seats. If Vox gets into the All Student Council, we will solve this problem."
Allied Greek-Independent has a policy that an independent candidate must get through an open primary election by running against a Greek before he can run in the general election, Austin said.
Austin talked last night at Corbin and Gertrude Sellars Pearson halls. About 80 women attended, Austin said.
"Vox plans to conduct a closed primary in which an independent is guaranteed to be able to run in the general election" he said.

Mrs. Brand said many presidents have not volunteered this information and the directory must go to the printer early next week.
President of each student organization must give his name, address and telephone number to Mrs. Catherine Brand in the office of the dean of students sometime this week to get the information in the Student Directory.
In content, the directory of today and that of 1907 differ only in one major aspect. Since telephones were not in general use in 1907, numbers are listed only in the advertisements.
The directory was free to the students and was supported entirely by advertising revenue.
A preface to the 1977 edition carried this advice to the students: "If you are a loyal student of the University and are working for its good and your own good, you will study

Hospital Reports Fewer Patients This Morning
Fewer patients were reported in Watkins Hospital this morning, but more were expected during the day. Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the Student Health Service, said today.
"Early this morning we had 56 patients and 25 empty beds, but six new patients were admitted by 11 am, today." Dr. Canutzson said.
Dr. Canuteson said if there was more room at the hospital, they could care for more students, but if facilities were set up elsewhere it would require a doubling of the staff.
The hospital is not admitting students to the hospital unless they have over a 100-degree temperatures, Dr. Canuteson said. "Turning students away is a temporary thing, and should not have a long term effect."
Dr. Canuteson said 445 people came to the hospital for flu shots Wednesday, only half as many people as can be vaccinated in a day.
Starting Wednesday morning a visiting nurse went to 15 organized houses to check sick students. Dr. Canuteson said "it worked very well." The nurse would continue visiting the houses today, he said.
Tuesday 906 students were vaccinated which would bring the total number of shots given to 3,051. The supply of vaccine is expected to last through today and possibly Friday, Dr. Canuteson said.
