By a Kansan reporter
W. Clarke Wescoe
A former KU chancellor and a former KU Alumni Association national president are among four recipients of the association's highest award.
The four are W. Clarke Wescow, KU cancellor from 1960 to 1969, and his wife, Barbara Benton Wescow, both of Allentown, Pa.; Judith Harris Murphy, Beverly Hills, Calif.; and Robert W. Wagstaff, Alumni Association national president, Mission Hills.
The Alumni Association awards the medallions for "unique and significant service to the University" and will present the awards at a dinner Sept. 26 at the Adams Alumni Center.
They will receive the 1986 Fred Ellsworth Medallions.

The awards were established in 1975 in honor of Fred Elsworth, who served 39 years as executive secretary of the Alumni Association. Ellsworth resigned from the post in 1963 and died in 1966.
University of Kansas in 1951 as a professor of pharmacology and experimental medicine and in 1952 was appointed dean of the School of Medicine.
He left KU to become vice president for medical affairs at Sterling Drug Inc., and was the first nonalumnus to receive a Distinguished Service Citation from KU.
Barbara Wescoe graduated from KU in 1944 and worked on several projects for KU while her husband was chancellor.
Athletes' deaths prompt local drug seminars
By PATRICIA FEENY Staff writer
The recent deaths of athletes Len Bias and Don Rogers have triggered concern among KU faculty and students about drugs, a concern demonstrated by two drug seminars this week in the Kansas Union.
On Wednesday, three campus groups sponsored "Drugs and Alcohol: Current Issues in Society." Yesterday, the Student American Pharmaceutical Association presented "The Effects of Drugs on Physical Performance."
M. Kathleen Clark, president of the association, said the key to dealing with drug abuse and athletes was
education.
David Amber, vice chancellor for student affairs, said drugs were an important and timely topic. He said a university's proper duty in addressing the problem was to educate.
"The ultimate solution to the problem is education. Someday we will live in a society where artificial intelligence neither needed nor valued," he said.
Raymond Tricker, assistant professor of health, physical education and recreation, said drug education should start in kindergarten.
He said people took drugs because they did not have self esteem or because they were unable to cope
with something. He said current kindergarten drug programs were teaching children to feel good about themselves
At the second seminar, speakers emphasized drug use by athletes.
Bruce H. Woolley, director of health services at Brigham Young University, said the use of substances to enhance physical performance was not new.
"But," he said, "the bottom line is no athlete should take any drug
without first clearing it with the team physician, trainer or coach."
Woolley said the most frightening drug was crack, a derivative of cocaine. He said that it was 40 times more potent than cocaine and that a person could become addicted to it in 10 to 14 days.
On Jan. 13 the National Collegiate Athletic Association approved mandatory drug testing for athletes. The program began Aug. 1.

BEVERLY HILLS COP Director: Martin Brest Cast: Eddie Murphy, Judge Reinhold, Lisa Elbacher in one of the biggest hits of the 1984 Christmas season, Eddie Murphy makes his first solo starring appearance as a brash, street-smart Detroit cop pounding the glided pavements of Beverly Hills in search of his best friend's killer-much to the consternation of the city's elite police force. Beverly Hills Cop is an entertaining blend of wild comedy, high-energy action and nail biting suspense that's not to be missed.
