Tribble said yesterday that some universities and colleges, scholarship committees and honorary societies didn't accept the grading system, and converted grades of credit to C, and no credit to F when computing grade point averages.

In the spring of 1973, 2,441 students used the credit-no-credit option. Last fall, 506 students used the option, the lowest number since the option was offered in 1968.
Tribble said he expected about the same number of students to use the option this week.
Undergraduates who want to pick up for the credit no credit grade option can pick up option cards in their school dean's office Sept. 4-20.
TRIBble SAID the idea behind the option was "to let a student explore an
"It gives a student a way to experiment in other fields without hurting his grade point average," he said. "However, most students don't use it for that reason."
Tribble said most students using the credit-no credit option indicated that they were taking the option to fulfil a course requirement or to lighten their study load.
academic area he wouldn't otherwise be involved in.
Under this option a student receives credit for grades of A, B or C. No credit will be given for grades of D or F. Once an operation is changed by a student, it can't be changed.
Courses taken under the option aren't used in computing a student's grade point value.
ONE COURSE a semester may be taken under the option and no courses in a student's major may be taken credit-no credit.
Instructors won't be informed of those students who choose the credit-no credit program.
Mondale to speak in K.C. at legislators' convention
Sen. Walter Mondale, D-Minn., the Democratic vice presidential nominee, will be in Kansas City, Mo., today to speak to the State Conference of State Legislators (NCSL).
He will address the 2,000-member annual convention at 2 p.m., then will attend a private reception given by State Rep. Martin Sabo, speaker of the Minnesota House of Representatives and president-elect of the NCSL.
In keeping with the Republican campaign strategy to dog the Democratic candidates' footsteps, Sen Bob Dole, R-Kan, the party's nominee, will speak to the NCSL tomorrow afterpart.
The nature of Mondale's remarks isn't known. But Dale Leibach of Mondale's advance staff said, "I'd guess any time he goes around, I should have some to give a campaign slam to it."
The NCSL convention, which began Tuesday and continues through Friday, is an opportunity for state legislators throughout the nation to meet.
A representative of the conference said yesterday that topics under discussion ranged from public utility regulation to women's rights.
Mondale will leave Kansas City after attending the scheduled reception and will join Democratic presidential nominee Jimmy Carter in Plains, Ga., to prepare for a nationwide campaign effort aimed at hitting each area of the country every week.
Liebach said that, although Mondale's upcoming campaign, his visit to Kansas
Dole will be in Topeka tomorrow morning to campaign for Ross Freeman, Republican congressional nominee from the 2nd district. He will appear with Freeman at a 7:30 breakfast at the downtown Ramada Inn.
Coalition seeks the registration of KU voters
Prompted by the upcoming presidential elections, a coalition of Lawrence and KU youth groups called Frontlash will sponsor a voter registration drive here Sept. 7-10.
City wasn't 'intended to visit the people per se' but instead 'intended to be the traditional campaign.'
Steve Millstein, a legal assistant intern in Topela, is leading the drive with volunteer help from the Young Republicans, the Democrats and the League of Women Voters.
Millstein said yesterday that Frontlash was a national organization formed by the U.S. Youth Council in 1969 to increase voter registration.
Registration booth will be in the lobby of Templin Hall Monday, in the lobby of Hashinger Hall Tuesday, in front of the Kansas Union Wednesday and in the second floor lobby of Summerfield Hall Thursday. The registration booth will be in the lobby of Wescow Hall Monday through Friday.
The nature of Dole's remarks to the legislators also is unknown.
The boots will be open from 8:30 a.m. to
4:30 p.m.
The credit-no credit option was made available fall 1968. At that time it was called pass-no credit. Students received credit for grades of A, B, C or D and no credit for an F.
Fall 1969 the option was changed to its current status.

50 YEARS TRADITION CONTINUED
REMEMBERING
MRS. LENOIR HOOD MILLER 1889-1976
Sunshine Corner
Where toddlers, through happy purposeful play, may grow into well-integrated personalities, showing physical well-being, mental alertness, emotional stability and social control.
Play and hand craft are provided indoors in airy, sunny rooms.
A large, inclosed yard, with out-of-door equipment provides opportunity for large muscle development.
Healthful habits of body and mind are particularly stressed.
Children need companionship with those of their own mental age.
The handbill reproduced in app above is over 30 years old and described Lennar Holl Muller’s Sunshine Center at 106 Sibirch Street in Wilmette, Illinois, on north Chicago suburb. One of her students, remembering that her years with Mrs. Miller were filled with wonderful early childhood experiences, Mrs. Miller credit for this work to Ms. Reilly, who made it possible to make this work for her children, Susan Keenan found Sunshine Acres Preschool in Lawrence.
Miller, M. Miller wrote to Ms. Kean and her other student students annually, so for as long as 50 years. White Mr. Miller died this year, for the past five years she enjoyed seeing slides and hearing lectures.
While time and methods have changed, those who love children still share similar goals. Sunshine Acres continues to grow, but the old fashioned values, personalized teaching and fun, still exist. To keep teaching personalized to 12, professional preschool teachers will be involved and our students, from ages 2½ through 5, will be organized in small groups with 10 children in a group. To challenge each child's needs, 11 of our 12urest teachers Teacher Preparation Training groups will be on a daily audiovisual aid. To promote a learning environment, the teachers provide daily audiovisual aids, and preschool materials imported from Canada, Holland, and England. Children and teachers work and play together in a modern air-conditioned classroom building on a large playground.
Thinking for knowledge, a child probes into the world surrounding him. Everyday discoveries become exciting adventures; if that child has careful adult guidance. in memory of Karyn Miller, who sought to give each child a wonderful memory of childhood and a joy of learning, we announce the opening of a playground where you can visit. You will be invited to
