It's That Time Again
It's that time of year again ... when the hand nears the ear and students congregate in front of television sets wherever they are located.
The World Series was scheduled to get underway at 1 p.m. today in Bloomington, Minn., when the Los Angeles Dodgers, national league pennant winners, invade the home territory of the Minnesota Twins, American league champions.
BOTH WDAF-TV (Channel 4) in Kansas City, Mo.; and WIBW-TV (Channel 13) in Topeka, are telecasting the games.
For the students who have classes scheduled during the series play, transistor radios become standard equipment, even replacing some of the books.
EVEN SOME students go so far as to become hard of hearing during the series. That is so they can take their hearing aids, which look shockingly like transistor radios, to class.
The Kansas Union has two television sets for the students' convenience. One is placed in the main lounge and the other in the Trophy room.

For Pain of Weekly Meeting ASCTakes Bi-Monthly Cure
By Stephen Russell
The ASC voted to go to bimonthly meetings and to decrease ASC representation on the University Daily Kansan Board in their meeting last night.
In a 21 to 5 vote the ASC moved to meet twice a month instead of once a week. The amendment to ASC bill number one would also change the number of absences allowed a member from seven to four before automatically being dropped from the council.
BRIER SAID MEETINGS twice
BILL BRIER, Shawnee Mission senior (Vox — Unmarried-Unorganized), placed the amendment before the Council by announcing the Committee on Committees approval for passage by a 4 to 0 vote. Brier, chairman of the committee, said they favored the amendment because they felt weekly meetings unnecessary, and because ASC bill number one already provides for the calling of special meetings, when needed, by the ASC Chairman or five individual members.
In the ensuing discussion, the opposing sides based their stands on these premises:
Meetings every week leave members with little time for other activities, both scholastic and social. "We have other duties besides sitting at the council and arguing about minor changes," George Tannous (UP—Unmarried-Unorganized), said.
MEETING TWICE a month would force the Council to make quicker decisions in acting on legislation causing poor representation. "We have a job to do and it is important enough that we should meet every week."
Russ Cummings (UP — Large Men's), said.
Brier also placed before the Council the amendment to ASC bill number five, which the Committee on Committees had unanimously passed for approval. This amendment would allow for only the chairman of the ASC Publications Board to sit on the University Daily Kansan Board instead of the entire committee.
The amendment was passed unanimously by a voice vote.
The Student Court, in its first session of the year, defined its position in student government more clearly by unanimously deciding it was an administrative body and not a court.
Court Defines Role
Chief Justice Rick Kastner stated, in the official opinion, "... that the Kansas Board of Regents has established the Student Court as an administrative body, which follows established judicial procedure as followed in the State of Kansas."
The court reached this decision in a hearing of an unprecedented appeal by the prosecution in a KU traffic violation case last year—the University of Kansas v. Leo D. Robinson.
The question involved was whether the prosecution could appeal to the court en banc (in full court), from a judgment which was for the defendant and decided by the traffic court.
The Court decided in the appeal case that "... the prosecution is not permitted to appeal judgments favorable to the defendant." The Court did decide also in its official decision that "The prosecution may appeal bare questions of law which, if successful, will not have the effect of reinstating the judgment against the student defendant, but will only settle the question of law applicable in future cases."
Seminar Will Unite Past and Future
Two educators who led KU for two decades and have distinguished themselves at other universities will return for the Inter-Century Seminar on Man and the Future.
Malott, a KU chancellor from 1939 until accepting the presidency of Cornell in 1951, will address the opening session of the four-day seminar. He retired from the Cornell post last year.
Former Chancellors Deane W. Malott and Franklin D. Murphy will have key roles in the April 11-14 Centenial event.
MURPHY, WHO succeeded Malott at KU's helm and became chancellor of UCLA in 1960, will address the closing session, focusing on the role of the state university in the next 100 years.
Between these key "past and future" statements, leaders in letters, the arts and professions will present lectures and discussion of the challenge of the future. Results of the seminar will be published.
Weather
The U.S. Weather Bureau forecasts generally fair weather tonight and continuing mild through Thursday. Cooler temperatures are anticipated tonight with a low in the mid to upper 40's. High Thursday will be around 70 degrees.
During Malott's administration KU's enrollment soared from 4,600 to a temporary post-war peak of 9,600 in 1948-49, size of the faculty tripled and there was a spectacular increase in private gifts—from $153,000 to more than $1.2 million.
A POSTGRADUATE program was inaugurated at the School of Medicine and appropriations for salary and maintenance at the Lawrence campus quintupled. Dramatic growth continued under Murphy, who already had demonstrated his ability by developing the famous Kansas Rural Health Plan when he was dean of the medical school.
AS KU CHANCELLLOR he saw graduate enrollment increase 88 per cent, the value of research contracts climb from $535,000 to $2.4 million at the Lawrence campus alone, and the value of Endowment Association assets increase from $3.8 million to $8.2 million.
Under Murphy the number of volumes in the library doubled, the University entered the "dormitory age." a program of endowed distinguished professorships was begun, a gifted student program was initiated, alumni association membership more than doubled to 13,400, and KU's pioneering programs in international education were launched.
