Popular vote to determine winner of HOPE Award
The 1974 HOPE Award winner will be determined by straight popular vote, according to Pat Soptic, chairman of the award committee.
There have been no complaints about the selection process, Sopic said, although the managers have said that there are.
In past years, Soptic said, a variety of factors, including popular vote, the size of the schools of the finalists, and the committee's evaluation of finalists after interviews, were used to determine the winner.
"in the past, the committee has had more authority than we wanted to take," she said. She also announced that her brother will be the finalist who received the most of the almost 400 votes cast last week.
In the event of a tie or a difference of only
or three votes, the committee will make
the decision.
The winner of the HOPE Award will be
announced at halftime of the KU-Nebraska
football game Oct. 19. The winner will
receive about $150 and a plaque.
It is the only award for teaching excellence presented by students at the UCLA.
HOPE award finalists are Jess H. McHale, adjunct professor of business; Calder M. Quadagno, associate professor of physiology and cell biology; John Senior, professor of comparative literature, and young, associate professor of journalism.

Students must 'learn to live'...
From Page One
Gregory said, I wouldn't start trying to cure the problem in the streets, I would start at the top. The Mafia needs to be wiped out, if actually wants to cure the crime problem.
Students must demand an education from the schools they attend, Gregory told the audience. They should learn how to live, not be educated in a society where they should be educated, not indoctrinated.
You can't hustle knowledge, you can't match it, and you can't cram it, and it doesn't matter.
Famine will become a world problem and
unless we learn now to eat what we need,
not just what we like, we will suffer with
the rest of the world.
People should understand nature if they want to be able to understand what is going on in their world.
If everyone understood nature they would know that there was going to be a drought this year, he said. You can't tear down all the trees and not replace them without losing the water that the trees put into the atmosphere.
AMERICANS MUST start eating for nutrition and not for taste, Gregory said.
Nuclear bombs aren't going to be the controlling force in world power, Gregory O'Neill said. "It is not a new issue."
America is going to have to stop living in private wealth and start sharing with the world. We suffer from a national problem of overweight citizens, while much of the world population is starving, Gregory said. It can't go on much longer.
Americans think that a problem will go away if they ignore it. Veneral disease is at epidemic proportions, Gregory said, yet he still fears the threat can not be solved until it is acknowledged.
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE are manipulated through their fears, Gregory said. Nixon was elected because he played upon the population's fears.
"You can't have fear and knowledge at the same time," Gregory said. "That is not possible." He began his meetings
Newsmen name editor to Kansas Hall of Fame
Wharton Hoch was named to the Kansas Newspaper Editors Hall of Fame Saturday by the Willaim Allen White School of Journalism.
Hoch was editor of the Marion County Record from 1944 until his death in 1967.
Calder M. Pickett, professor of journalism, presented the award at the University of Kansas annual Editors' Day program, in the Kansas Union.
Pickett said Hoch was a small town editor similar to William Allen.
Hoch was born June 23, 1968, in the old Governor's Mansion in Topeka. His grandfather, E. W. Hoch, was governor of Kansas from 1965 to 1999 and Hoch's father was fourth District Congressman and later a justice of the Kansas Supreme Court.

He said he believed that the day of the generalist was almost gone and that students needed to be taught to become specialists.
"We have to think what we want students to take outside," Leabo said. "We need to know about our local history."
Finch, a 1967 graduate of KU, explained how international news needed to be treated (for example, "The New York Times" said).
"The closer a story is to a reader, the more interest it has to that reader," Finch said. He said news was difficult to capture because it required much effort to capture the attention of the readers.

The population explosion was a source of fear in America, Gregory said. As a result, last year's birth rate was the lowest ever in America's history.
Gregory, who has 10 children, said a large portion of the population soon would be over 65 if zero population continued. This is dangerous, he said because it is the young people who are willing and able to change the direction of the nation.
GREGORY PREDICTED that there
would be a food shortage this winter that would be a "million, billion, trillion" times more serious than the gas shortage of last winter.
A drought and an early freeze will force problems will arise from this, said Gregory.
In the end we will be judged on how much service we gave to our brothers and sisters
"You all've got a big job," Gregory told the audience. Learn all you can and don't use violence, learn all your problems can eventually be solved.
