Woman gets ROTC honor
For the first time at the University of Kansas, a woman has received an Air Force call.
Brenda Beaumont, Ulysses junior,
received the scholarship, which pays for her
tuition and books for two years. It was
awarded on the basis of grades and ex-
tracurricular activities, according to Capt.
Rosemary, assistant professor of Air
Force ROTC.
Macke said Beaumont had an impressive record.
The daughter of a retired Air Force officer, Beaumont, said ROTC was the natural course for her to take.
Space research is Beaumont's main interest. She said she has been fascinated since childhood by space and reads often science fiction and technical books on
She is majoring in astronomy and said she hoped to be an astronaut someday. She intends to direct her Air Force work after graduation toward space research. From there, she said she hopes to become involved in specific space programs.
Canoists race tomorrow
Drought or no drought, the KU-K-State canoe race is on.
There was some doubt Wednesday night whether the annual canoe race would take place this weekend because a recent lack of funding and experience in the water level of the Kansas River.
However, the Army Corps of Engineers tonight will open the water gates at the Tuttle Creek Reservoir to raise the water level.
The race will begin at 8 a.m. tomorrow morning in Manhattan. After about eight hours, the leading canoeists will reach the halfway point, where the teams will camp halfway point, where the teams will camp
for the night. At 6:30 Sunday morning, the leading racers will resume the race in the same order and time intervals when they checked in Saturday evening. The race will begin at Burcham Park, across the river from the city waterworks, at about 4:30 p.m. Sunday.
There will be two or three people in each canoe. Every four to six miles the crew is changed. Both sexes must be represented in each canoe.
The Residence Association at K-State has made the lobbies of Moore and Putnam halls available tonight to KU racers who want to sleep overnight.
Med Center . . .
From page one
would take 100 years of mammography to double a woman's cancer risk. Statistics indicate that 7 per cent of all women get the cancer, the leading cancer killer among women.
At a press conference Wednesday, Humphrey said mammographies still would be recommended to women of all ages for early cancer detection, even at the risk of losing NCU funding of the cancer detection project.
According to Humphrey, the survival rate
is 98 per cent for women in the project found to have breast cancer.
THE DETECTION project at the Med Center, opened in September 1973, was one of the first such projects in the United States.
In addition to breast X rays, the project gives thermography tests to detect cancer through heat variations in the breast, in the breast incisions and instructions on breast examinations.
The project's purpose is to determine the qualities and the limits of mammography.
