"As we look to the future," he said, "the welfare of the faculty must be pre-eminent in our mind. A University is nothing more than the accomplishments of its faculty."
Athletic Board Becomes Coed For First Time
Sara McBride, Kansas City, Kan., senior, yesterday became the first woman to be appointed to the University of Kansas Athletic Association Board.
Her appointment was announced by Mert Buckley, student body president, who selected McBride. McBride replaces Tuck Burke, the school's vice president she will serve on the board until May 1974.
The 19-member athletic policy-making board comprises faculty, alumni, admitting officers and staff.

Buckley said he had chosen McBride because of her familiarity with athletics. "She's a really good player," he said.
"I think there should be a women's basketball team and a men's team. Women should compete with men only if they're good enough."
'I'm working for the betterment of the KLAA and I'm open to everyone's feedback.'
Cycle Walker, athletic director, said he hoped McBride appointment would be useful to the organization.
Charles Oldfather, University attorney and faculty representative to the association expressed approval of the appointment.
"I'm glad to have a member of the stronger sex on the board," he said.
"It is essential that we provide an atmosphere in which their work can go for them."
"It is essential, too, that we manifest continuing concern for the faculty's economic status; in fact, the maintenance of a competitive position in faculty cooperation with other universities of the front row must become one of our top priorities."
To do this, Dykes said, "we must build stronger and more positive relationships."
Therefore, Dykes said, the University should seek to be more sensitive to the concerns of Kansas. "All of us—students, faculty, and administrators alike—must shoulder part of the necessary work," he said.
Dykes also asked for broad participation in University governance and academic activity.
"Despite the problems ahead," Dykes said. "I am optimistic about the future of our country."
The day also included a noon lunch at the Kansas University for about 100 official guests.
Dykes, 42 years old, was named chancellor April 13 after an exhaustive search. He had been chancellor of the University of Tennessee at Knoxville since 1971.
Dykes is KU3's new chancellor since 1969, when E. Laurence Chalmers Jr. was installed, succeeding W. Clarke Wescoe. Dykes was the last August when Chalmers resigned.
