Returning alumni seek vindication

When the Jayhawks take the field tomorrow they'll not only be trying to stay alive in the Big Eight race, they'll also be trying to provide the KU graduation classes of '49 and '64 a Homecoming victory they didn't get as seniors.
The two classes are having their reunions this weekend as part of the homecoming event.
The 1949 Homecoming contest saw Missouri beat Kansas 34-28 before a crowd of 40,500 in Memorial Stadium, a record at that time.
The 'Hawks were paced by versale Dick Gilman, an All-Conference quarterback the year before. His primary receiver was Bill Schake, a Lawrence sophomore.
The game provided plenty of thrills for KU fans as the 'Hawks fought back from 27-7 at halftime to 27-28 early in the fourth quarter. The Tigers connected on a long pass for the winning touchdown later in the game.
Other stars for the 1949 team were Dick Tomlinson, Orion Tice and Jerry Bocke.
Tomlinson, Orin Tice and Jerry Boque. Flood Temple, KU baseball coach; Dolph Simons, editor of the Lawrence Daily World-Journal, and Wade Stinson, former
KU athletic director, were also on the 1949 football team. Stinson galloped for nine vards on five carries in the Missouri game. The '49 Hawks finished fifth in the Bid.
Some '49 class members might remember the addition of a consistent coach that year, a few years ago.
The 1964 Homecoming game was against
Devaney's Iowa State. Cornhuskers,
then the No. 2 seed.
Both schools had 4-0 conference marks entering the game. Nebraska was ranked fifth nationally and held a 14 game winning streak.
The Jayhawks lost a heartbreaker 14-7 despite outstanding play by Mike Johnson, Bok Skahan, now the athletic counselor at KU, and Ron Oelschlager.
None of those playing could compare with Gale Sayers, the two-time All-American who played for the greatest running backs in the history of prefaield football. The Cornhuskers kept Sayers from breaking the long run, but in the game that assail that would have led to a touchdown.
The '64 Hawks finished with a 5-2 record in Big Eight play and 6-3 over all.
Homecoming issue
To mark Homecoming the Kansan has 28 pages today, including two special sections.
The sports section predicts another
fine year for the Jayhawks on the basketball court, investigates the growth of women's athletics at KU, surveys the football players on their attitude toward their coach, their game, sports writers and recruiting, to former Kansas football players now playing professional ball.
The second special section focuses on whatever happened to "Nob Hill," an analysis of the apparent decline of KU's status as the elite school among the public colleges and universities in the state of Kansas.

Protest conducted to save SES jobs, source says
Monday's demonstration against the appointment of Gary Flanigan as director of Supportive Educational Services (SES) was staged by several black leaders who wanted to protect their jobs with SES, informed sources said yesterday.
A black student leader, who asked not to be identified because of fear of reprisal, said that four top officials of the Black Student Union (BSU) employed by SES wanted Flanigan fired in order to protect their jobs with SES.
The student said the BSU leaders convinced freshman members of BU, who had no knowledge of the situation, to participate in concentration along Jiahawk Boulevard.
"I don't think everyone who participated really knew what was going on," the freshman said.
One freshman who participated in the demonstration told the Kansaan that, at the time of the rally, he thought Flanagan was a black man and he learned later that Flanagan was black.
Other black students yesterday voiced disapproval of the demonstration.
"I don't think the majority of black
representatives are represented," said
Ozierdee. "They're the BJR."
McDonald said that although all black students were members of the BSU, only about 25 participated and that they were mainly freshmen and sohomores.
McDonald, who used the SES tutorial service as an underclassman, said he wasn't opposed to Flanigan's appointment. He said he though most of the dissent was from his performance in a refutation with Flanigan's performance as resident director of Ellsworth Hall.
James Posey, president of the Black American Law Students Association, said he knew Flanigan because both of them were resident directors of University residence halls, and he thought Flanigan was well qualified for the job.
Posey said that as a black student he was a member of the BSU, but that because he
Resolution split U.N., official says
The principles opposed were nationalization of all natural resources, indexation—a system in which the prices of imports and exports are balanced, similar to the parity concept for U.S. farm prices—have the power to raise prices unilaterally and to use economic monopoly as a political weapon.
A resolution passed by the United Nations General Assembly recently has caused bitterness between the industrial powers and the developing countries, Wendell Woodbury of the State Department said here last night.
Woodbury, who is chief of policy, planning and review for the U.N., said several colleges have offered Economic Order, introduced and passed without a vote by the Group of 77 (a caucus of developing countries) were strongly opposed. United States and 35 other member countries.
Woodbury said U.N. developmental programs traditionally had been handled through institutions such as the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the International Developmental Bank (IDA), a subsidiary of the World Bank (IDA), and contributions to make concessional loans to countries with no credit rating.
The problem will be overcome by compromise if the U.N. is to survive, he
Woodbury said the developing countries were dissatisfied with these institutions because the number of votes a country had was determined by vote. Woodbury said the United States alone had contributed
40 per cent of the bank's reserves, and another 50 per cent was contributed by other industrial powers. Thus, the countries have a power in controlling these institutions.
The two sources of revenue for U.N. programs, Woodbury said, are voluntary contributions and assessments based on population and net income paid by member countries. The third source of revenue is assessment revenue comes from the United States, which pays 31 cents a person.
A resolution demanding that the Housing Office and J. J. Wilson, director of housing, eliminate the communication center in McCollum Hall was passed unanimously last night by the McCollum Hall Senate.
Woodbury said the United States and other industrial nations were feeling pressure from the developing countries that control the resources they need.

"If the developing countries continue to retain the bake solidarity they have shown in the oil crisis, they can run the General Assembly," he said.
The equipment that has already been purchased by the Housing Office for the communication center should be resold, the resolution said. Any losses incurred from the resale of the equipment should be absorbed by the housing office.
Woodbury said that although the U.N. was getting farther from limited world government, he said, "there's no reason."

Some residents of McColm Hall said the decision to make McCollum a communications center was made without proper student inpatu.
Two rooms on the first floor of McCollium already have been set aside for the workroom.
"The SES is supposed to be for all minorities, not just blacks," he said.
Once Black student, a junior, said not many of his students were directly involved in the SES.
Officers of McColm will meet with William Bailour, vice cancellor for student affairs, today to discuss student rejection of the center.
He said he thought all of the minority groups involved in the program should help
According to SES figures, less than 25 per cent of the black students at KU are part of the SES program. SES can accept 150 black students in Indian and disabled students each year.
Last year, black students outnumbered other minority students by about six to one.
Gilbert Brown, BSU vice chairman, said after the demonstration Tuesday that one of BSU's objections to Flanigan was that he had limited his exposure to black students.
"A director is supposed to work in the interest of black students," Stanley Williams, Wichita freshman, said at the rally. "Gary Flanigan has been here seven years and couldn't work with black students."
Williams also said BSU should have been before被告. Flanigan's appointment was written in 1983.
"I have yet to find something concrete, something other than conjecture that they are basing their protest on." Flanigan said Monday. "I don't think it represented the opinion of one group, and I don't think it reflects of all black students on campus."
"We are here to get a voice in the choice," he said.

People express their most important personal ideas by using empty, mechanical handwriting, according to Herbert Mosher, assistant director of Pearson College.
Students learn art of calligraphy to combat impersonal expression
Newspaper articles have been reduced to objects that are read quickly and thrown away, he said yesterday. Letters to parents whose sons have died in battle have become uniform forms, and letters among friends have become increasingly depersonalized.
It was to combat this impersonal mode of expression, Mosher said, that italic writing, or calligraphy, became part of the Pearson Integrated Humanities Program.
Mosher said calligraphy was the type of writing used in illuminated manuscripts of Chaucer's work and of the Bible during medieval times.
Mosher said there were several reasons for students in the Pearson program to learn calligraphy. One reason is that it helps to convey the difference between personal and mechanical expression, he said.
"Iused to feel sorry for the scriptors in monasteries until I looked at some of the manuscripts," he said. "They were praising what they were writing by their art."
"We're trying to encourage the students to have orderly behavior," he said.
Disinterested thinking comes from a lack of caring, he said, but the care that goes into writing a paper using calligraphy empowers users to must have for the thoughts in the paper.
"Consider the handwriting of this letter," the brochure says. "It was scripted by a student of the Pearson Program. This is not merely writing; it is what the author is beautiful, beautiful, writing. Typing is unbeautiful writing, impoverished, starved writing."
The brochure describing the Pearson Integrated Humanities Program was written with italic script at the end of the program, director of the program, Mosher said.
The writing isn't taught as a separate course. Mosher said it was taught as part of her job.
"Rhetoric is the art of persuasion," he said. "One of the moral responsibilities of the rhetorician is to persuade you to the good."
However, he said, there is always a danger that rhetoricians might become sophists, people who use their persuasive skills to whatever side seems most advantageous.
"A sophist has his knowledge of the end of words—that is, to tell the truth." Mother said. Calligraphy is part of the art of writing. Teachers teach students to respect words, he said.
Matt Shapiro, Mission junior, teaches calligraphy to some of the students.
Shapiro said the first time he had suggested a course in cartography to the freshmen he teaches, it was enthusiastically received.
especially useful for occasions such as signing wedding books.
It is more meaningful to use italic script and a small poem for such a memento, he writes, "If I were you, the *Kisses* are red, violets are blue, happy bumps are how you?" in ordinary script.
