The loudest Jayhawk
James Gillispie, KU sports announcer, takes a break during the
halftime of Saturday's game. Gillippe, who directs the pharmacy at Watkins Hospital, has been announcing at KU since 1847.
Fans hear familiar voice
Bv ROB EMBERS
Staff Writer
"Kansas' ball, first down, Kansas' 40." The words echo off nearby Mt. Oread. "Smith ball carrier." The booming voice is crowded by crowd noise and moments later, above the din, can be heard, "Touch-down, Kansas."
The voice belongs to James Gillispie, public address announcer for KU football and basketball. Gillispie, director of Watkins Hospital Pharmacy during the week, has been the announcer since 1947. Despite his usually unremotional voice, he
"You can't be a cheerleader. You have to try to keep your voice calm," he said. "I'm a rabid Kansas fan, but you just have to keep your voice even."

Announcements
THE UNIVERSITY SENATE HUMAN RELATIONS COMMITTEE welcomes any complaints or problems between University and community groups or individuals. For information contact Hobart Jackson at 844-3250.
It was incorrectly reported in last Friday's Kansan that two persons to be arraigned on marijuana charges were men. One of the two persons to be arraigned—Darril L. Voorhees, 25, 1345 Kentucky St. is female.
Corrections
Gillippe admitted that sometimes he got little irritation, especially when KU was upset.
Gillippe also avoids talking too much because he believes it distracts the fans. He uses short phrases and avoids giving information everyone knows.
"You can't be chattering all the time," he said. "They came to enjoy the football game, not to hear the public address announcer."
Gillispie said that a public address announcer was bound to make mistakes and that one of his biggest was last year at a basketball game. Gillispie had been given a woman's black purse, which had been found, but he announced "a black woman's purse has been turned in," and the crowd began laughing.
Gillippe said he usually waited until the play had developed before announcing who was carrying the ball. He said this was to prevent tipping off the other team.
"As it turned out, a black woman did claim the curse." Gillips said.
The biggest difficulty for Gillispie is working in the crowded press box. He said the area was so crowded during the game that one of his spotters stands behind him.
Gillispie said that last Saturday's game with Washington State had gone better than he had expected, but that he hoped the crowded conditions wouldn't get worse.
Of his many memorable moments as an announcer, he said that one of his favorites was when KU, bound for the Orange Bowl, defeated Mississippi in 1947.
Gillipie works with two spotters, who identify ball carriers, tacklers and substitutes. His job has become much easier as the advanced turf has eliminated muddy torses.
In that game, KU came from behind in the closing minutes. In the final drive of the game KU took the ball deep in their own territory and began moving downfield as
Mice infest stadium in name of science
By TERRE JOHNSON
"Just by the way they moved if you could just feel in your bones what was going to happen."
Twelve thousand squirring little mice probably live beneath Memorial Stadium.
THOUGH THE distinct smell of mouse dropings is at first repelling, it doesn't bother Al Smith, a KU animal husbandman. Smith has worked with the mice under the stadium colonies for the 19 years KU has raised them for the NIH.
But relax. They're in cages under expert
care and they contribute much to medical
technology.
Mice colonies, raised in a converted storage room under the east section of the stadium, are being used for cancerchemotherapy research by the University of Kansas and the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
John Weir, professor of physiology and cell biology, is in charge of the mice colonies. He said recently that the mice were used as models for studies on such things as responses to cancer and tumor reactions to various chemicals.
"SOME TESTS have been quite spectaculair in some tumors," Welr said. "Some tests have not."
The NIH reimburses the University for the cost of raising the mice and for 53 per cent of the salaries of those working with the mice.
Weir said mice were used in the research because they had organ systems identical to humans, so their reactions could predict accurately reactions in a human's body.
Weir also said that mice, although more expensive than food bacteria and fruit flies, were relatively inexpensive compared with rabbits, dogs and farm animals.
This type of project also is done at other universities with the NIH.
"And they're a lot cheaper than rats," Weir said.
here." Smith said. "We just produce them. NIH calls us from Washington, headquarters of cancer chemotherapy, to tell us where to send our mice."
THE MICE ARE inbred-brothers and sisters are mated- and are weaned in three weeks. In another three weeks they mate and within another day they're ready to
About 650 milt are shipped weekly from the colonies to cancerchemotherapy labs in Barcelona.
There seems to be no shortage of mice:
Inbred litters usually number six; a
litter may have 15-20 babies.
After the mice are born, he said, they are under constant observation for any parasites, viruses, mutations or other problems and diseases.
Ukrainian poet to lecture here, teach 3 weeks
"But we don't do any research down
"SOMETIMES THEY kick up quite a noise, especially mice in their adolescent ages and during cage changes," Smith said. "But other than that, they're very doole."
The environment and diet is ideal for a mouse. Room temperature is 76 to 80 degrees all year, and the mice are fed Purina Mouse Chow and potatoes.
Up to 30 young mice, black, brown or white can occupy a cage.
He said the mice had ample room to run around in the cage, but they often crowded
During the years Smith has cared for the mice, no serious problems have occurred. There has been an occasional mutation, he said, but there's no danger in the work.
A 100-pound sack of potatoes from a nearby food market was brought in recently. The man who unloaded the potatoes carried them to the door of the
The Ukrainian writer will arrive Sept. 23 to present a series of classes and lectures as the Slavic language department's Soviet writer-in-residence.
Vitaly Korotich, a contemporary Soviet poet, will be lecturing for three weeks at the Moscow University.
Korotch has published 15 books of poetry and prose. His work has been translated into many languages.
Gerald Mikkelson, chairman of the Slavic language department, said Korotich's work dealt with Korotich's "experience in the development of Societ literature" and "the nature of the creative experience." The themes are often suggested through his written descriptions of nature, Mikkelson said.
After apparently holding his breath awhile, he said to Smith, "This is for your potato-eating mice!"
Two lecture series featuring Korotch are scheduled to meet Tuesdays and Thursdays from Sept. 28 to Oct. 14, One at 8:30 a.m. in 225 Fraser Hall, will deal with the history of Ukrainian literature. The other, at 4:30 p.m. in 4011 Wescoe Hall, will deal with contemporary non-Russian literatures of the Soviet Union.
Korotich will read, in Ukrainian, a selection of poems at 8 p.m. Sept. 27 in the Council Room of the Kansas Union. Some of the poems will be translated into English, and Korotich's commentary will be in English.
Korotch is scheduled to speak on "The Soviet Writer Today," Oct. 1 in the Council
Some of Korotich's books will be on display in the Watson Library reference
New professorship honors 1900s pianist
The first endowed chair in music in the KU School of Fine Arts has been created in honor of Cordella Dykes Murphy, Chancellor Archie Dykes said yesterday.
The professorship was created through a gift to the University of Kansas Endowment
Murphy, a famous concert pianist in the early 1900s, was the wife of Franklin Murphy, who helped found the KU School of Medicine. Mrs. Murphy died in 1947.
James Moeser, dean of the School of Fine Arts, said the endowed chair would provide more funds to attract distinguished faculty and students. He also will announce to the new chair will be announced later.
He then quickly left.
