Meals at Home Rare In Wescoe's Schedule
By Linda Machin
Being the chancellor of a university is a job which allows little time for relaxation and family life, and requires a sense of humor, according to W. Clarke Wescoe, Chancellor of the University of Kansas.
"I'm so involved with other people's children that I can't act as a father to my own," he said.
"THE DISAPPOINTING feature of my job," continued the Chancellor who is the father of three children, "is that I cannot lead a normal family life." He explained that during the past school year that he considered himself fortunate to be able to eat dinner with his family once a week. At times he went as long as three weeks without sitting down to a family meal.
The Chancellor has three children, Barbara, who will be a freshman this fall at Indiana University, Bill, a senior in high school, and David, a fourth grader.
The Chancellor and James R. Surface and his family plan to leave today for Green Lake, Minnesota, where they will meet the Wescoe family who has been vacationing there since June. However, even during so-called vacations the Chancellor finds himself busy with University relations. For interspersed with family outings at the family cabin in Minnesota during the month of August he will make a three-day business trip to Washington, travel to Chicago to make a speech for the American Medical Association, and the last week of August he must return to KU to prepare for the opening of the fall semester.
THIS IS THE second time this summer that the Chancellor has made a rather futile attempt to enjoy a vacation with his family. During the Fourth of July weekend, his fishing and other outdoor activities were hampered by an emergency trip to a hospital. He was treated for burns covering his arms which he
had received while burning trash behind the cabin.
The burns, from which he has completely recovered, represented the second injury in the past three months requiring hospital treatment.
Prior to graduation, the third week of May, the Chancellor spent a week in the KU Medical Center suffering from pinched nerves in his neck where previously he had instructed KU medical students in Pharmacology. In 1951, Dr. Wescoe came to the KU School of Medicine from Cornell Medical College, where he had been professor of Pharmacology.
A year later, he was appointed dean of the School of Medicine in 1952, he became the youngest medical school dean in the nation — at age 32.
NOW AT THE age of 43, with three years behind him as Chancellor of the University of Kansas, Dr. Wesscoe sat behind his desk in Strong Hall and told of his summer duties.
"There seems to be a popular misconception that the university is dead after commencement," the Chancellor said jokingly, as he lightened his pipe. "If anyone thinks we close our doors, they're wrong. I'm just as busy in the summer as in the regular school term."
"The only difference in the summer is that the number of students coming in to see me is less."
However, he estimated that over 6,000 students—nearly 60 per cent of KU's normal enrollment—have been here on campus attending the summer session, the Midwestern Music and Art Camp, various conferences and freshman previews.
SMILING GOOD NATUREDLY as he talked of his tight schedule which allows little time for relaxation, he said, "In my position you have to be able to see the humor in every situation and have the ability to laugh at yourself but never at anyone else."
Nick Vaccaro Joins Faculty
Nick Dante Vaccaro, University of Texas faculty member, has been appointed associate professor of drawing and painting and chairman of that department at the University of Kansas.
As chairman he succeeds Raymond Eastwood, who relinquishes the post after 17 years, having reached the administrative retirement age. Professor Eastwood will continue to teach.
THE 32-YEAR-old Vaccar, a native of Youngstown, Ohio, earned the A.B. degree from the University of Washington, magna cum laude, in 1958 and a master of arts degree from the University of California (Berkeley) in 1960. At Washington he was elected to Phi Beta Kappa.
Professor Vaccaro joined the University of Texas faculty in 1960 and was promoted to assistant professor a year later.
He has earned a dozen fellowships and prizes or purchase prizes for his work and his paintings, prints and mosaics are now found in 24 museum and private collections.
Professor Vaccaro's work has been accepted in more than hundred exhibitions.
KU Professor Safe After Earthquake
Prof. Herbert Galton of the University of Kansas is unhurt after being involved in the earthquake in Skopie, Yugoslavia.
Mrs. Galton, who remained in Lawrence while her husband was doing research in Skopje this summer, received a telegram from her husband early Wednesday morning.
Mrs. Galton had not heard from her husband since the earthquake last Friday. Prof. Galton's message said he was unhurt and had moved out of the stricken area.
Ford Foundation Grants $500,000
International education at the University of Kansas is one-half million dollars nearer its goal of "preparing its students to live in a world where every man is a neighbor." Chancellor W. Clarke Wescoe said Thursday.
The Ford Foundation has granted $500,000 to KU to expand and accelerate development of its international studies program.
LAST DECEMBER, the Ford Foundation gave the university $177,000 for three years of experiments in increasing the international content of undergraduate courses. This fall results will be apparent in new approaches to courses in political science, sociology, and speech, and in an experimental course in Eastern Civilization. The latter will be offered in 10 to 12 sections this Fall instead of only two last Spring.
Other courses under development will be offered next Spring and in following semesters.
The new grant of $100,000 a year for five years will permit KU to increase the size and capabilities of its faculty in international education, to increase its ability to teach the "unusual languages," to purchase additional books for its library holdings in the international area, and to continue its experiments in international teaching and research.
THE GRANT will make it possible for faculty members who specialize in international areas to renew more frequently their personal contacts in the area.
The program was developed by the Committee for International Educational Affairs, whose chairman was Francis H. Heller, associate dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. It will be administered by a new Council for International Programs. Prof. George M. Beckmann of the history faculty, is chairman of the council and associate
dean of the faculties, a position created this year.
For a school located in the heart of the nation, the University of Kansas always has been deeply involved in international programs, beginning with early and extensive foreign student enrollments which last Fall reached a total of 366 students from 65 foreign countries.
MORE RECENT developments include a pioneering program in foreign student orientation for the U.S. State Department, three centers devoted to better understanding of the Slavic and Soviet, East Asian, and Latin American areas; exchanges between the University of the Philippines and the KU Schools of Medicine, and a summer language institute which this year flew 150 KU summer session students to Europe for two months of language study in France, Spain and Germany — and this year Finland for the study of Russian.
The university has an extensive cooperative program with the University of Costa Rica which includes a junior year abroad for undergraduate students and a faculty exchange in many areas of study. A group of 29 Peace Corps volunteers last year completed their training at KU and are serving the first of two years' service in Costa Rica as teachers of English and science in rural secondary schools.
The University of Kansas recently joined with seven other schools to form the Organization of Tropical Studies which will develop and assist programs of education and research relating to the tropics.
Thirteen languages already are being taught at KU and more will be added under the terms of the new Ford Foundation grant. Some regular classes also are taught by professors who lecture in a foreign language.
J. C. Thomson Will Teach Music History
James C. Thomson, chairman of the music department at Wilson College in Chambersburg, Pa., since 1952, has been appointed associate professor of music history and literature in the University of Kansas School of Fine Arts.
PROF. THOMSON earned the Ph.D. degree from New York University in 1959, an M.A., with major in Music Studies from Yale; an M.A. with majors in German and music theory from Baylor University; the A.B. from Middlebury College, and a teacher's certificate from the Federal Academy of Music in Berlin, Germany.
Violin is his principal instrument. He also has studied piano, harpsichord and gamba here and abroad.
Prof. Thomson had a Fulbright fellowship to Iran in 1962. At Yale he won the Kellogg Fugue prize.
He has taught at the College of
Tennessee since 1952.
42 and at Wilson College since 1952.
'Boy Friend' Cast Home
Seventeen student actors and musicians from the University of Kansas are back in the United States after two months of performances of the musical comedy, "The Boy Friend," at military installations in Japan, Korea, Okinawa, Taiwan, the Philippines, Guam and Hawaii.
Some of the performers, who were directed by William Kuhike, speech and drama instructor, have returned to their homes while others are spending some time on the West Coast.
Fall Season for KU Stage Shows Opens Oct.9 with Emperor Jones'
With the stage lights hardly cool from an arduous and ambitious summer program, KU theatre production directors have announced plans for the 1963-64 season.
"The Emperor Jones" Eugene O'Neill's memorable and moving expressionistic drama, opens the KU theatre season. Four other major series productions, four Experimental Theatre shows, two children's shows and touring companies round out the season.
The KU production of "The Emperor Jones" will star the talented Clayton Corbin, hailed by critics as "the new Emperor Jones" of our generation. Corbin has been called an actor "who bids fair to become our next Ira Aldridge, Charles Gilpin, Paul Robeson, Canada Lee, Frank Silvera—rolled into one."
THE MAJOR productions will include "Madame Butterfly," "The Corn Is Green," a Shakespearean production, and "Period of Adjustment." The two children's shows are "Beauty and the Beast," and "Peter, Peter, Pumpkin Eater." The Experimental Theatre series has not been announced yet.
Production dates are Oct. 9-12 with William R. Reardon directing.
"MADAME Butterfly," by Glacemo Puccini, is an opera in which West meets East in a colorful, dramatic way. The tender love story and the expressive lyricism have made this work an all-time favorite with opera-goers everywhere. Lewis Goff, who has been on leave in Vienna the past year, will direct the opera, to be presented Nov. 1-2, 8-10.
THE FINAL major series production will be directed by Gordon Beck. With "Period of Adjustment." Tennessee Williams gives us a comedy with warmth, wisdom and hilarious good humor. It is the story of two marriages in crisis—wedlock and separation—told with a humorous viewpoint but genuine concern for a very real human situation. Dates for this show are April 22-25.
The children's shows will be produced by Jed H. Davis. "Beauty and The Beast" is scheduled for Dec. 12-14, with "Peter, Peter, Pumpkin Eater" set for Feb. 27-29.
"The Corn Is Green." by Emlyn Williams, will be directed by Jack Brooking. Production dates are Feb. 5-8.
In celebration of the sesquicentennial of William Shakespeare's birth, 1964 will see another University Theatre production of one of his plays. A guest director, as yet unannounced, will be guiding the show to production dates of March 18-22.
A new curtain time will be inaugurated this Fall. Formerly at 8:30 p.m., the curtain will now rise at 8:15 p.m. for all productions except the children's shows. Box office hours are weekdays from 10 a.m. to noon and 1 to 5 p.m. Saturdays, 10 a.m. to noon. An answering service is in operation 24 hours a day.
STUDENT identification cards entitle the holder to a ticket for each
major production. Students are seated in the best available seats at the time of purchase. Segments in each price category of the house are reserved for students. On Experimental Theatre productions, the regular admission price is $1, with no reserved seating. Students may be admitted with their I.D. and 50 cents. Student I.D.'s are not good for admission to Children's Theatre productions.
Tickets for auxiliary seating — formerly "standing-room-only" — for Major and Experimental Theatre productions go on sale at the box office at 7 p.m. on sell-out nights. They are dispensed on a first-come, first-served basis, and no reservations are accepted.
Cash prices for seats remain at the old scale; $2.40, $1.80 and $1.20. Season coupon books for the five shows are available at substantial savings —up to $4—for patrons. In addition, season coupon book-holders have an opportunity for early choice of seating, before ticket sales are opened to the general public.

During the 1961-62 year, Abelson was a member of the Bavarian State Opera in Munich, Germany, and sang leading and supporting roles in 52 performances. He has sung with the Minneapolis Symphony orchestra seven times and appeared in musical comedy and on television in New York and Minneapolis.
In 1960, he was an opera award winner at the Mozarteum and in 1955 received the "best musical program" award of the Havana, Cuba Music Critics Association.
Opera Veteran To Teach Voice
Abelson, a 37-year-old baritone with more than 50 opera performances and more than 50 oratorio roles on his record, succeeds Miss Meribah Moore, who retired this summer after 36 years on the KU faculty.
Norman Abelson, a University of Minnesota teacher the past six years, has been appointed associate professor of voice at the University of Kansas.
HE EARNED degrees from Washington State and Columbia Universities. He also has studied at the Juilliard School in New York, the Mozartune in Salzburg, Austria, and the Chigiana Accademia Della Musica in Siena, Italy.
ABELSON was an instructor at the University of Florida two years and went to Minnesota as assistant professor in 1857. There he has instructed individual students, directed the glee club, the St. Paul campus chorus and the opera workshop.
His duties also included the hosting, directing and performing on 79 television programs on music offered by a Minneapolis-St. Paul station.

State Money
It must be easy for the Kansas Legislature to raise all the revenue that is needed.
Otherwise, why should it give away several million dollars each year to the banks in the state?
IT WORKS LIKE this: State funds are divided into two major classifications-active and inactive deposits.
The state board of treasury examiners just recently voted to transfer $18 million from active accounts to inactive accounts. That raises the total of state funds in inactive accounts to $106 million.
This $106 million of tax payers' money is in Kansas banks. The State of Kansas should have little trouble in finding a home for this money. The banks pay only 1 per cent interest on 80 per cent of the money.
THE KANSAS City Star of July 29 reports that this money is then invested by the banks in government bonds earning around $3 million on the taxpayers' money.
This makes banking in Kansas a rather preferential profession. The taxpayers pay through the nose so that it can be used by bankers.
It doesn't have to be that way. Private accounts draw 4 per cent interest, some places $ \frac{4}{1} \mathrm{\frac{1}{4}} $ per cent.
IF THE Legislature would raise the rate of interest 1 per cent, according to the Star, it would bring in an additional $1 million.
But the Legislature doesn't have to stop at 1.8
per cent interest. The president of the state's largest savings and loan association recently offered to pay $4\frac{1}{4}$ per cent interest on state funds deposited with his organization.
There is no reason why taxpayers' money should not be paid at least 3 per cent interest, especially on inactive funds.
AS IT NOW stands, the banks holding active account funds pay no interest at all. This account amounts to between $20 and $30 million.
As already mentioned, this public handout to the banks must lead us to believe that the Kansas Legislature has more money than it knows what to do with.
That is a bit of sloppy management on the part of the Legislature. If any of the legislators want to loan me more than $100 million at .8 of one per cent interest, I stand ready.
IF THIS practice is good for state taxpayers' money, it should be good for the legislator's money. It is doubtful if any of them are that liberal with their own money.
That is how it stands now. The Legislature says the state is hurting for revenue, yet it "loans" out more than $100 million at token interest rates.
If you don't like the present situation,you might try talking to your representatives. They could change it.
Then again, maybe there is a reason why the taxpayers' money must go begging. If so, it would make interesting reading.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Dear's View on English Pro
Dean's View on English Pro Miss Gustafson submitted a letter to you which she said is directed to the faculty of the English Department and concerns the English Proficiency Examination. I believe the readers of the Kansas may wish to have a few items of additional information which, in my opinion, are necessary before one can discuss the pros and cons of the English Proficiency Examination.
First of all, one ought to exonere the Department of English. The examination has not been conceived by the faculty of that department, it is not administered by the Department of English, and, in fact, its grading is not a function of the Department of Engligh.
As is true of all other academic requirements, it is the faculty of each individual school that determines whether or not the English Proficiency Examination shall be a requirement for graduation from that particular school. Thus, Miss Gustafson, as a senior in the School of Education, might well have asked the faculty of the School of Education whether the requirement should be continued. The Department of English as an organizational unit does not determine this and its individual members participate in a decision with regard to the English Proficiency Examination only as they, individually, take part in the deliberations of the faculty of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
Rumors about the problem created by an allegedly excessive failure rate on the English Proficiency Examination keep cropping up every year. They are frequently dramatized by relating instances of individuals who have failed the examination on several successive occasions or given a wholly absurd cast when it is related that students of unusual excellence or students carrying outstanding editorial responsibilities have been found to have submitted inadequate papers. One needs to remember, however, that students who have performed at the level of A or B plus in freshman English at the University of Kansas are not required to take the examination; hence, any percentage figures that may be used
are skewed to begin with; they are percentages not of all students but only of those who, not having qualified for exemption, presented themselves for the examination. Further, percentages are likely to include people who have previously failed the examination.
The examination has been required by most schools in the University for eighteen years now. The several faculties, in agreeing that such an examination should be required, were concerned primarily with the tendency of students to treat good writing as if it were something only English courses can or should demand. This is not say that the faculty as a whole or individual members of it would be prepared to defend the examination as the best possible way of achieving this result; much time and thought has been given to possible alternatives. Many of these would be not only difficult to administer but might well prove more burdensome than the fairly simple and not particularly time-consuming device of writing a brief essay.

Reports Say Russia Offers India Missiles and More Fighter Planes
LONDON—(UPI)—The Soviet Union was reported to have offered India guided missiles that could be used in the event of renewed aggression by Communist China.
The offer also was said to include radar equipment, transport planes and training facilities. The Soviet has been shipping MIG jet fighters to India for some time.
(IN NEW DELHI, foreign and defense ministry spokesmen declined to comment. It was pointed out, however, that discussions are continuing in Moscow between the Soviets and an Indian arms-shopping delegation.)
Sources here said it appeared to
The indicated Soviet offer coincided with mounting reports of Chinese troop concentrations and the massing of Chinese warplanes all along the northern border of India.
QUALIFIED Communist diplomats here have hinted that the Soviet had warned Peking it would not consider itself bound by the Sino-Soviet mutual defense pact if China became involved in an aggression as the result of Peking's militant policy.
be a calculated Moscow move to counter Anglo-American military aid to India, which provides for allied air exercises and weapons.
The Western allies closely followed reports of an alleged new Communist Chinese military build-up, said to include up to 1,000 warplanes around newly-constructed airfields in Tibet.
The airfields at Tsonadzong and Rima were understood to be capable of handling heavy jet bombers. Both are close to India's North East Frontier Agency (NEFA) which was invaded last year by the
ACCORDING to the latest information available here, the Soviet has shipped six MIG21 fighters to India and is to deliver six more. The deal for the MIGs was concluded before China's attack. Moscow's decision to go ahead with the shipments angered Peking.
Chinese.
The United States and Britain, while extending military aid to India, have been reluctant to provide supersonic jettifiers which the Indians are anxious to acquire. Sources said India may be turning to the Soviet Union now for such planes.
Observers here said the Soviet apparently has dropped restraint in providing help to India since the Moscow-Peking rift exploded into an exchange of name-calling and insults after the unsuccessful "peace" talks earlier this month.

YOU'RE ENTITLED,' by Harry Golden (Crest, 60 cents).
That wise and witty philosopher of the Carolina Israelite has compiled another collection of his remarkable personal journalism. Here is some of the most refreshing and singular writing in America today. Harry Golden writing for us on almost any subject that comes to his active mind.
Like the presidency: "Woodrow Wilson proved a college teacher could be President and Harding proved that a 'good-time Charlie' could be President. Calvin Coolidge proved you don't have to say much and Herbert Hoover proved you don't have to do much. Roosevelt proved a man could be President as long as he lives and Truman proved that just about anyone could be President. Eisenhower proved that you don't even have to have a President and John F. Kennedy seems intent on proving that you had damn well better be the President."
And many other matters as well that flew out of the Golden typewriter. This is fine reading, straight through or random sampling.-CMP
HOW TO WIN AT CONTRACT BRIDGE IN 10 EASY LESSONS, by Richard L. Frey (Crest, 60 cents)—a handy guide for America's bridge enthusiasts, a good many of whom are right here on the KU campus. Frey offers here a complete Goren point count and latest official changes. Goren himself provides an introduction.
WELCOME TO THEBES, by Glendon Swarthout (Crest, 75 cents) a new and contemporary tale by the author of such diverse books as "They Came to Cordura" and "Where the Boys Are." The situation involves a Hollywood writer on the way out who is searching for a new best-seller and gets involved in sordid small-town doings, as well as in his own personal problems.
THE SOUND OF BOW BELLS, by Jerome Weidman (Crest, 95 cents).
Here is the latest best-seller by Jerome Weidman, as slick and as absorbing as those novels which have preceded it. Weidman has a good feel for the American idiom, and especially the New York idiom, and he describes here the efforts of an East Sider to get to Sutton Place, to become a great writer and resist the numerous temptations along the way.
Is it Weidman's own story? Like the other novels, "The Sound of Bow Bells" shows that the promise shown by Weidman in the 1930s remains unrealized, that he is a good writer but far from first-rate. But as a story-teller he is one of the best.
SHAKE HIM TILL HE RATTLES, by Malcolm Braly (Gold Medal, 40 cents)—This is a paperback original, set in San Francisco, describing a musician who gets himself involved with a girl in a coffee joint and a spoiled society dame who picks him up while she's out slumming. A book for the cats, if that's what they're still called.

Religion Teachers Don't Try Persuasion; Courses Taught Objectively, Dean Says
By Linda Machin
The role of KU School of Religion is to inform the students about religions, not making converts.
William J. Moore, Dean of the School of Religion, explained, "It has a non-sectarian, non-propagandizing approach to the teaching of religion. The teachers try to present religion, especially as it is practiced in America, but with the same standards of scholarship in other phases of the universities such as history, philosophy, and economics.
"THE SCHOOL'S purpose is not to persuade students to accept any religion," Dean Moore stressed. "Rather we want them to have the privilege of studying religion in the same critical, objective way as in other courses."
"Not all of the work done in religion is done here in the School of Religion," Dean Moore said. "For example, the department of philosophy offers a course, "Philosophy of Religion," the sociology department, "Sociology of Religion," and the psychology department, "Psychology of Religion."
He pointed out that in addition to courses concerning predominant religious practices in America, the school offers course work which includes an introduction to the other great religions such as Buddhism, Hinduism, Confucianism, Taoism, Jainism, and Sikhism.
In regard to the students who take courses in the school, Dean Moore said, "Of course there is no record of affiliation of the students who enroll. Probably there are atheists andagnostics in some of the classes and we welcome them if they are interested in learning.
"OCCASIONALLY some of the members of the non-Christian faiths like Hinduism and Islam take courses," he continued. "But, probably most of the students are from the major Protestant branches of Christianity."
Dean Moore explained that the school practices the principle of separation of church and state. The
school is neither supported by public taxes nor by student tuition. Administrative direction is severed from Strong Hall.
Though administratively and financially independent from the University, "academically, the School of Religion functions more as a department within the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences." For instance, before a teacher is appointed, he must be endorsed by the dean of the college and the chancellor as well as a committee of the School of Religion.
In regard to the future plans and expansion of the school, a long-range program calls for four full-time instructors in addition to part-time instructors by 1965. At present, Dean Moore is the only full-time teacher. This fall, however, another

full-time instructor is being added, sponsored by Episcopalians.
Plans for physical expansion include an already partially completed building at the same Oread location across from the Kansas Union.
Overseas Calls Grow

State Problems To be Aired At Luncheons
Page 5
TOPEKA (UPI) — Kansas Gov John Anderson recently announced that he was scheduling a series of luncheon meetings in the near future to deal with several of the state's problems.
Anderson said planning for the luncheon was underway and the meetings may begin before Labor Day in September.
The Governor noted that little progress has been made in planning for treatment of alcoholies since the Commission on Alcoholism was disbanded several years ago.
HE SAID ONE meeting with government officials and private citizens would be to discuss the problems of alcoholism in Kansas.
Anderson said there were an estimated 25,000 to 30,000 alcoholics in this state. "We must first face the realization that alcoholism is a real problem and then begin working to solve it," the Governor said.
THE GOVERNOR said among items to be discussed at the luncheon meeting on alcoholism would be the possibility of treating alcohols at the state mental hospitals and then providing a continuing outpatient treatment program.
Another luncheon meeting with officials and citizens will be held to discuss development of a program for expansion of the state's penal system.
The legislature has authorized funds for planning the construction of a new prison to help take the load off the dangerously overcrowded Kansas State Penitentiary.
The Governor said another conference would be with Blue Cross-Blue Shield officials to determine if all state employees can be placed in a single group for insurance purposes with an eye toward reduction in premiums.
At present the various state agencies form groups of their own. Anderson hopes that by consolidation premiums could be reduced.
Friction Not Answer
FARMINGDALE, N. Y. — (UPI)—It's not the friction of air on the nose cone of a space capsule that makes it so hot as it plunges earthward at 17,000 miles an hour—it's the compression.
Aerodynamics experts at Republic Aviation Corp. here explain it so: If you've ever pumped up a tire — or football or basketball—with a hand-operated pump you may have noticed that the bottom of the pump's cylinder gets much hotter than the rest of it. It's not the friction of the plunger that makes the heat, but the fact that the air is being compressed most tightly at the bottom, greatly speeding up the molecular action. Same thing happens when an orbiting vehicle re-enters the earth's atmosphere, jamming all that air in front of its nose.
KU Geologist Guides Study Aimed at Better Education
Prof. Hambleton is director of GEO-Study (Geological Education Orientation Study), sponsored by the American Geological Institute and supported by the National Science Foundation. Last week he presided over a conference in Boulder, Colo., that climaxed an intensive yearlong college-visiting program.
Geological education in American colleges is due for some changes, and one person responsible is William W. Hambleton, professor of geology at the University of Kansas and associate director of the Kansas Geological Survey.
FORTY OUTSTANDING scientists, including geologists and consultants in the fields of biology, physics, and mathematics, took part in the Boulder conference. Kansas also was represented by James Peoples of the KU Geology department and Mrs. Marian Warriner, research assistant for GEO-Study.
"We considered three major aspects of geological education," Hambleton said. "These were the introductory course for college freshmen, the curriculum for geology majors, and the possibilities and opportunities for faculty improvement.

Russian Humor Offers Advice In Case of War
MOSCOW—(UPI) —"In case of atom attack," says one Russian to another, "Cover yourself with a white sheet and crawl slowly to the cemetery."
"Why slowly?" asked the friend. "So as not to cause panic," answers the other.
THE JOKE reflects the somber attitude which many Russians are taking towards thermonuclear war. And in recent weeks they have received strong warnings from Premier Nikita Khruschev and the Soviet press as to what it may be like.
For a long time, the press avoided the subject. There were no pamphlets describing what to do. There was no fall-out shelter program as in the United States. Khrushchev put it simply July 20 when he said "Won't the living envy the dead?"
HE WAS referring to the wholesale pollution of the atmosphere which a thermonuclear war might cause.
cause. The Sino-Soviet rift has deepened. Descriptions of the horrors have become more frequent. They are particularly occasioned by the Chinese advocacy of violent means to overcome capitalism and imperialism.
"BY THE calculations of experts, about one billion persons would be killed as a result of the very first blow, and the great cities of Europe, Asia and North America could be destroyed," he said.
Speaking at a friendship meeting for visiting Hungarian leader Janos Kadar, July 20, Khrushchev ridiculed the idea that a bright new society could be built "on the corpses of millions and millions of dead."
"The effects of a thermonuclear war would show on life's progeny, bringing death and disease, and carrying with it a disformed growth of humanity."
KHRUSHCHEV played on a similar theme in his written message to an international women's conference here in June.
"The peoples realize more and more clearly that a new world war, should it break out, wil be different from past wars.
"It will mean the loss of hundreds of millions of people, the destruction of the fruits of creative efforts of dozens of generations" it will inevitably reduce to ashes very much of what is generally referred to as civilization."

TOPEKA — (UPI) — Letters were mailed last week to proprietors of Kansas hotels, motels, cabin camps and restaurants advising them of the new Kansas Act Against Discrimination amendments which went into effect July 1.
Civil Rights Order
The Kansas Commission on Civil Rights advised the public accommodations owners and restaurants that it will enforce the law under same procedures as have been used in administering the Fair Employment Act.
ENCLOSED with the letters were copies of the act itself and the "notice to the public" required in the act.
"It is the declared policy of this establishment to serve all orderly persons without discrimination because of race, religion, color, national origin or ancestry. Our employees have been instructed to comply with this law."
The notice, which must be posted in a conspicuous place, reads:
THE COVER letter read, "It is the commission's hope that proprietors of hotels, motels, cabin camps and restaurants will comply voluntarily with this new civil rights statute in serving all orderly persons without regard to race . . . so the State of Kansas may continue its leadership in the field of civil rights progress."

NEW CENTREX
Telephone System For the University of Kansas
Beginning August 4 You Can Dial KU DIRECT
Through the University's modern new CENTREX Telephone System
Most KU phones, including those in administration buildings, faculty and staff offices, can be dialed directly—without going through the University operator—simply by dialing UN 4, plus the four numbers of the phone you are calling.
If you do not have the number for the phone you want to call, dial UN 4-2700. The operator will give you the number and you can then dial it direct from any telephone in Lawrence.
On-campus callers will also be able to dial direct to other Lawrence numbers—without going through an operator.
