Reap Awards, Grants In Summer Sun
Reap Aware Advisers, Faculty To Central America
The United States Agency for International Development has awarded $212,000 to KU for aid to the commission for general studies of the Council of Central American Universities.
Thomas M. Gale, assistant dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, has left for Costa Rica to coordinate the program. Other KU personnel will join him in Central America when fields and faculty number needs have been determined.
On-campus coordinator for the program is Burton Friedman, who will teach senior and graduate seminars in the school of education.
The Greater University Fund of KU has won recognition for the second time in three years from the United States Steel Foundation and the American Alumni Council.
Council Honors Greater KU Fund
The KU fund received an honorable mention award and $125 for sustained performance of alumni giving among public institutions during the 1963-64 school year.
In the 1962 national competition, KU's Greater University Fund won the grand award for improvement of alumni support among public institutions.
The two-year program will send KU advisers and faculty in the social sciences and humanities to the universities of Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemala.
The American Alumni Council determines the honores through its Survey of Annual Giving and Alumni Support. The United States Steel Foundation provides financial support for the program.
WCW Fund to Frosh
Patricia Mog, Russell freshman, has been named recipient of a scholarship from a fund set aside by Cancellor W. Clarke Wescoe.
The scholarship, which will cover her tuition and required fees at KU for her freshman year, comes from the W.C.W. Fund in which Dr. Wescoe has deposited honorariums received from high schools where he gave commencement addresses this spring.
Electron Microscope Lab to Be Installed
The United States Office of Education has granted $8,110 to Gale R. Adkins, director of radio-television research at KU for an 18-month study of television directing.
An electron microscope laboratory to,study ultrastructure of cells will be installed at KU under a first year grant of $60,327 from the U.S. Public Health Service.
Principal investigator for the resulting ultrastructure research is Paul R. Burton, assistant professor of zoology. The grant is expected to total $80,000 over a three-year period.
Electron microscopes allow researchers to "get inside of the cell and study certain formations or ultra-structures," Prof. Burton said. Research now planned for the electron microscope laboratory will include both basic and applied study of cell ultrastructures.
The research will determine what skills and abilities are needed by persons who direct educational television programs. To gather data for the study, Prof. Adkins will visit educational television stations in 14 states. He will use the case method and critical incident technique to collect information. Results of this investigation will be compared with data from previous interviews conducted in 63 commercial television stations.
KU has received $514,790 from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration to continue the study of the use of radar to determine the properties of surfaces from high altitudes.
NASA Grant to KU

Studies will be conducted in conjunction with several other universities and various government agencies.
Project coordinator is Richard K. Moore, distinguished professor of electrical engineering, and a member of the Engineering Science Division of the Center for Research, Inc.
The research will help perfect radar techniques for one of NASA's first orbiting research spacecrafts.
