Leaders Analyzed At AURH Retreat
By Mary Dunlap
A leader is both the controller of a group and the servant of it, Prof. Howard Baumgartel, chairman of the Human Relations Department told delegates to a 2-day AURH leadership retreat at Rock Springs Ranch near Junction City.
Speaking at a noon luncheon yesterday, Prof. Baumgartel told the fifty delegates from upperclass halls at KU that a leader is a servant for he acts to satisfy the needs of a group. In this respect, he is also an initiator, of the action that must be done.
"THERE IS A NEED for people who can act," he continued. "There is a shortage of capable leaders, or people who can do the types of things that can get things done." Groups will not just work, he said, someone must deal with the emotions and spirit of the group.
"We should not indulge ourselves in exaggerating the potency of leaders," he said. "When people group, you can't stop things from happening; wherever there are groups, leaders will emerge." Prof. Baumgartel stated. Norms and values will form where people are, he added.
The leader must be uniquely skillful in that he can help people get what they want, he said. "A person cannot be a successful or effective leader until he is a member of the group," Prof. Baumgartel continued.
This problem is more acute when a new leader comes into a group, or when there is a large turn-over in leaders of a particular group.
EFFECTIVE LEADERSHIP stems from several things, he said, emphasizing that "There is no simple set of rules on how to be a leader."
He told the audience, mostly made up of officers from the upperclass halls, AUHR, IRC (Inter-Residence Council) and MSHC (Men's Scholarship Hall Council) leaders face a "complex set of dilemmas," and they should think about the freedom versus the control as a leader that they exercise.
IN ADDITION, THEY should weigh the time that is given to the human side of a problem. Social aspects as well as task aspects should be considered in the solution of a problem, he said.
The retreat was a new experiment in leadership. It was an opportunity for student leaders to get to know each other better, and to serve as an educational exchange of ideas to be taken back to living groups at KU.
Students for Self Control Cons' Win in Debate
By Earl Haehl
Although he said in his closing remarks, he would prefer to abolish debates, Robert Burton, assistant professor of East Asian studies, led his side to defeat in the KU-Y English style debate Friday night.
Paul Consolver, Wichita sophomore, was the other member of the team taking the affirmative. They argued that students should have no right to participate in running a state university.
THE VICTORIOUS SPEAKERS for the negative were Mildred Dickeman, assistant professor of anthropology, and Judy Farrell, Topeka senior.
Dick White, Boston, Mass., senior, moderated the debate. He timed the speeches and counted the audience votes.
Burton, who spoke first, explained that students are essentially irrational beings.
Charlie Pitts, Tulsa, Okla., junior, chairman of the KU-Y English style debate welcomed the audience. He explained the purpose of the debate and introduced White.
STUDENTS ARE STRIVING toward the brotherhood of knowledge, but they have not achieved it, he said. They do not have the ma-
tunity and stability of the faculty needed for making the decisions in running a university.
Students need discipline so they can learn, Burton continued, and unless they learn they cannot grow into the community. This is because there are more potential losers among the students who cannot discipline themselves, Burton stated.
FOR THE NEGATIVE, Professor Dickeman said a university is a place to become aware. Students learn to ride a bicycle or play a piano through practice. The same is true for a university.
Direct education is not enough, Professor Dickeman said. There is too much change going on. Students are sent to universities to learn to be better citizens. They must practice citizenship by participating in the government of the university, she concluded.
Consolver countered Professor Dickeman's plea for practice. He said that practice on a bicycle or piano was under supervision.
HE THEN GAVE his own argument against student participation. He conceded that students should be allowed to participate in organizations (Continued on Page 3)

Pope Leads Peace Mission With Historical Visit to U.S.
During his hectic 14 hours on U.S. soil, the Pope will deliver
NEW YORK —(UPI)— Pope Paul VI arrived here today to tell the leaders of nations that mankind has suffered too much from war in this turbulent century and now demands "true and lasting peace."
Weather
The "pilgrim Pope," who has traveled farther during the 27 months of his reign than all of his predecessors put together, landed at Kennedy Airport this morning for a 14-hour visit.
DURING HIS BRIEF stay he will address the United Nations General Assembly, meet with President Johnson, stop at the World's Fair, and conduct a mass for peace in Yankee Stadium. He will return to Rome late this evening.
As he stepped out of the plane to a red-carpet welcome, the 68-year old pontiff extended a warm paternal greeting to America's 45 million Roman Catholics.
HIS PURPOSE, he said, was simply to tell the world's assembled statesmen that mankind has suffered enough in this century from devastating wars and now must have a respite.
"THE FIRST POPE to set foot upon your land blesses you with all his heart," he said.
Monday, Oct. 4, 1965
Before leaving Rome, the poontiff told a cheering crowd at Funicimic Airport, including 50 Ecumenical Council bishops that he would "trust to the providence of the Lord" to bring fruitful results from his "mission of peace and good will."
The U.S. Weather Bureau predicts variable high cloudiness, otherwise mostly fair with a slow warming trend today through Tuesday. Southerly winds are expected at 10 miles per hour today and tonight. The high today should be 75 to 80 degrees and the low tonight in the upper 50's.
a total of nine formal speeches, counting the half-hour address to the General Assembly. All of the speeches will be in English except the U.N. address, for which the Pope chose to speak French.
AT THE AIRPORT the Pope's face wore a broad smile. He held his red and gold velvet skullcap in his hand and acknowledged the applause of the crowd by raising his hands.
The crowd hushed completely to hear the Pope's firm, clear words. The usually noisy contingent of newsmen and cameramen was silent.
OBSERVERS SAID that the reception at the airport was much more orderly than anywhere else Pope Paul has visited.
HIS FIRST MOVE, after the
formal welcoming ceremonies at the airport, was to drive through the streets in a 24-mile motorcade.
The city turned out its entire 26,000-man police force to cope with the biggest crowds and the worst traffic jams in its history.
ALTHOUGH THE U.N. address was his principal reason for coming to America, the Pope also looked forward to an hourlong private talk with President Johnson in the President's closely guarded hotel suite.
Tonight he will celebrate mass for peace before a congregation of 90,000 persons in Yankee Stadium. A feature of the mass will be multi-lingual prayers of peace offered by laymen representing the six continents of the globe.
Scholars from Japan Offer Open Discussion
KU's seven visiting Japanese students have requested an open discussion tonight at 7:30 p.m. in the Jayhawk Room of the Kansas Union.
The men, whose visit is sponsored by the U.S. Department of State, would like to discuss topics such as civil rights, student movements in universities, U.S. foreign policy, and Viet Nam. Anyone wishing to participate or observe is invited.
The students arrived Thursday with their American escort, Mr. Ronald Strickland. They visited various classes Friday and attended a reception by the KU Japanese-American Club.
Sunday morning the group left for a tour of central Kansas. The tour, sponsored by People-to-People, was conducted by Dale Sprague, McPherson junior. It included the Eisenhower Museum, Library, and family home at Abilene; the Indian burial grounds at Salina, and Bethany College among others.
Today the group toured Wichita's Beech Aircraft factory and Wichita State University. In Topeka they visited the State Capitol building and met Governor William Avery. They will arrive in Lawrence in time for the open discussion tonight.
After visiting additional classes Tuesday morning, the students will tour Haskell Indian Institute. Wednesday they will visit the Harry S. Truman Library-Museum in Independence.
They will have dinner Wednesday night at the home of Professor and Mrs. James Drury. Professor Drury, who teaches public administration and political science, has lived in Japan.
The group will leave KU Thursday morning.
