Revue Humor Echoes Farther; Rock Chalk Expands Tradition
By Judy McGhee
Originality and experimentation will highlight the 1966 Rock Chalk Revue. "That's Entertainment," as the traditional "campus" theme has been dropped.
Bill Boulware, show producer, said, "The object of taking away the crutch of a theme is to encourage originality and new ideas and break away from the old Rock Chalk formula. It is hoped that each house will imagine and devise its own type of humor."
Boulware stressed that skits do not have to be based solely on campus humor.
"THE AIM OF this year's Rock Chalk staff is to produce a new type of show built around the same
elements as those in the past," Boulware said.
"These include director, plot and continuity of elements, characterization, music, lyrics, dancing, possibilities for production and most important, originality."
Chuck Kraemer, Beta Theta Pi, said, "Rock Chalk has run its route in the past. People ran out of things to satirize when they kept trying to fit campus life into some specific theme. This new approach will make Rock Chalk either really good or really bad this year but I have a feeling it will be a superior show. At least it will be original."
although a wide open field does have its drawbacks. I feel that the show would be improved, however."
Stan Metzger, Delta Upsilon, commented, "It is good not to be pinned down to any specific area
THE FIRST GENERAL Rock Chalk meeting will be held Thursday at 7 p.m. for those already belonging to the staff. Tryouts will be held Sunday for additional positions.
An assistant stage manager must still be chosen and members are needed for the between-acts staff. Positions on the program, art, sales and public relations committees are still open and a photographer and staff secretaries are yet needed.
Another meeting will be held Tuesday, Oct. 5 with house directors.

Concern Keynotes Address
Schrey Speaks to ASC Tonight
By Stephen Russell
Active consideration for "those people on campus who express certain strong feelings," will be the theme of the State of the University address tonight by Leo Schrey, student body president, to the All Student Council.
SCHREY, Leavenworth senior, will speak before the first meeting of the ASC at 7 p.m., in the Sunflower Room of the Kansas Union. He said there are people on campus, whom some consider to be radicals, who are actually concerned with certain situations on
the campus and who should be heard.
India-Pakistan Fighting Resumes
NEW DELHI—(UPI)—Fighting flared today along the India-Pakistan border in violation of the United Nations cease-fire. India said it had annihilated a Pakistani column in the Sind Desert, and Pakistan reported the Indian air force attacked in that area.
The Indian Defense Ministry also reported continued Chinese military activity along the border of Ladakh in northeast Kashmir and near the border of Sikkim. It reported the Chinese digging in on high ground in the Ladakh area and said they had built observation posts and bunkers near Sikkim.
INDIA REPORTED wiping out the DIPA column and recapturing a village but the Defense Ministry denied its air force had strafed Pakistani troops in the Rajasthan-Sind border area 500 miles south of Lahore as claimed by the Pakistanis.
Mehr Chand Khanna, state minister for works and housing, called Monday for India to build the bomb. He told a rally: "We will need atomic weapons to safeguard our interests."
There was mounting pressure, meantime, on Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri to authorize manufacture by India of its own atomic weapons.
KHANNA WAS the first minister in the Indian government to urge publicly acquisition of nuclear weapons. A total of 85 members of Parliament, including a number of the ruling Congress Party, had signed a petition urging such measures following the outbreak of the war with Pakistan over Kashmir.
Pakistan's new charges were aired as Maj. Gen. Bruce F. MacDonald of Canada flew in with a group of United Nations aides in an effort to enforce the steadily deteriorating cease fire. He admitted his job would be difficult.
PAKISTAN'S CHARGES, made in a Karachi radio broadcast, said today was the first time India had used its air force against Pakistani positions since the truce went into effect last week. Terms
of the cease-fire provided that planes remain at least 10 miles away from battle positions.
The broadcast gave few details but said the action took place somewhere in the Rajasthan area 500 miles south of the Lahore front where both sides reported a series of violations. Fighting in the Sind Desert area has centered around the town of Garda, 200 miles northeast of Karachi and five miles inside Pakistan.
INDIA'S MIDDAY defense bulletin said one Pakistani column was "liquidated" 20 miles southeast of Garda. It said the Indians also recaptured the village of Sachu, 78 miles west northwest of Bikaner in the Sind Desert area. It said the fighting broke out after Pakistan intruded into the area.
The U.N. Security Council, meeting in New York Monday night on the Kashmir crisis for the third time in eight days, demanded that both nations honor the truce and withdraw all troops from areas of conflict.
Both India and Pakistan accused the other of attacks in Kashmir, and a broadcast by the clandestine voice of Kashmir Radio said Moslem rebels from Pakistan had inflicted heavy losses on Indian troops.
Skirmishes appeared to be breaking out all along the old truce line in Kashmir.
Indian Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri Monday night renewed charges that Pakistan and Communist China were acting together in stirring up strife on the subcontinent. But he said that
THE NEW U.N. resolution expressed "grave concern" that the five-day-old cease-fire "is not holding."
Weather
Cloudy skies with occasional light rain or drizzle is forecast by the Weather Bureau for tomorrow. Cooler temperatures are expected with winds southwest 20 to 30 miles an hour. Low tonight will be in the 50's.
India still favors the admission of the Peking regime into the United Nations.
"The world wants peace and we cannot live without it," Shastri said in remarks to the executive committee of India's ruling Congress party.
Schrey added that he will explain the Council's committee system, with references to specific committees. He will also stress the need for active representation of living groups, and for strong student leaders, both for the University and the student.
"TAKING EVERYTHING into consideration, therefore, our decision for the present is to vote for admission of China into the United Nations," Shastri said.
A broadcast by All India Radio today charges that Pakistani forces were trying to improve their positions all long the western frontier — from Karbmir to the Arabian Sea.
Radio Pakistan said today the so-called "freedom-fighters" in the Indian-held portion of Kashmir Monday shot down one Indian helicopter and killed or wounded 111 Indian soldiers in a series of raids.
Sen. Van Sickle to Speak At First CYR Meeting
By Irvana Keagy
Senator Tom Van Sickle, National Young Republican chairman, and former member of the KU-CYR, will be the speaker at the first meeting of KU-Collegiate Young Republicans. The meeting will be at 7:30 p.m., Oct. 6, in the Big 8 Room of the Kansas Union.
Van Sickle is a seven-year member of the Kansas Legislature. At the age of 23 he became the youngest member of the Kansas Senate. He is now serving his second term as senator and heads the senate sub-committee on industrial development.
Kansas Gov. William Avery will be among the prominent guests at the traditional fall party following the KU-Iowa State game Oct. 9. One or more Republican congressmen are also expected to attend.
Guest speaker for the Eisenhower Testimonial Dinner in Kansas City Oct. 14 is expected to be Gov. John R. Caffee of Rhode Island. Tickets, regularly priced at $100, will be available to KU-CYR members for $3.
Throughout the year, the club is expecting visits from Sen. Frank Carlson, one of the U.S. Senate representatives to the United Nations and senator from the Sixth Kansas District, and Congressmen Bob Dole, Bob Ellsworth and Chester Mize.
Bob Miner, Great Bend sophomore, was appointed chairman of CYR by the KU-CYR executive board when Bill Porter, Topeka junior and former chairman of the KU club, became the Kansas CYR Chairman.
Miner, no stranger to Republican politics, has served on campaign committees traveling throughout Kansas. He also has been active in the KU club and has been instrumental in slating prominent Republicans for club meetings in the past.
Membership total for the club nears one thousand students. The formal membership drive will last until Oct.1.
MIKE McNALLY, Bartlesville, Okla., junior and ASC chairman, said that there is no old business to be brought forward, except a short report or two given on legislation introduced last spring. He mentioned two pieces of legislation, of which he has knowledge, that will be presented to the Council in the form of new business.
A bill striving for more effective ASC representation on the University Daily Kansan Board, governing body of the student newspaper, will be introduced along with a bill to change weekly Council meetings back to twice a month. Mike added that there will probably be more new business introduced although he had no knowledge of it last night.
He said that secretarial and treasurer's reports will be given along with a report by T. J. Snyder, Independence, Mo., first year law student and head of the Athletic Seating Board, explaining the new policy on student admission to football games.
- To draw up and keep a complete copy of the ASC Constitution in the ASC office for easy reference to ASC members. At the present only one copy is kept by the Constitution committee.
- JANET ANDERSON. Prairie Village sophomore and ASC secretary, said her report will define the goals of her secretarial committee for this semester. She listed the five following plans of action:
- To check all resolutions, amendments, and bills before they are submitted. This will assure that they are submitted in proper order providing for faster introduction before the Council.
- To send out copies of the secretary's minutes of each meeting to all ASC members to remind them of what occurred at the preceding meeting and what will be brought up as old business at the next meeting.
- To keep the Council's awards up-to-date, such as the "Dollar A Year" award, given to past officers.
- To provide copies of ASC meeting minutes to the various campus organizations that request them.
