First meeting ends
College cities group set
By RUTH ROHRER
The 40 city officials, community and university leaders attending the Big Eight City Convention held in Lawrence this weekend decided to become a permanent organization with bi-annual meetings.
It was the first meeting of an organization of university cities, Dolph Simons Jr., chairman of the conference and publisher of the Lawrence Journal-World, said.
SIMONS WAS ELECTED chairman of a committee to set up the permanent organization and plan for future meetings.
"This type of organization provides an opportunity for the real leaders of the cities to get together and discuss basic problems and opportunities," Simons said.
The Lawrence Chamber of Commerce coordinated the conference and invited mayors, chamber of commerce presidents, city managers, chancellors and newspaper editors and publishers from the university cities.

Continued from page 1 took the discussions three years ago, and called the test "difficult."
ONE STUDENT WHO WOULD not give his name said he studied about nine hours entirely from the Western Civ notes.
"I knew the material on the test pretty well. I didn't think it was too hard."
David Smith, Edmond, Okla,
grad student, and another proctor,
said, "The test is only over
what you read.
"Therefore, if after you take Western Civ, you read all of Descartes, you might have a lot of trouble remembering the details of the 20 pages you read for the discussion. The course is wide in scope, but the test is fairy narrow."
THE USUAL RUMORS of a complete revamping of the Western Civ program to be initiated next fall were rampant Saturday.
James E. Seaver, Director of the Western Civ department said,
"There are some possibilities of some changes, but there is nothing definite vet."
Some recommendations have been made to the Educational Policies Committee of the College. Seaver said he thought he would speak to this committee "within the next week or so." and any changes would be made after that."
"IF APPROVED. I think the general scope of the readings would be about the same and the exam would be about the same, too." Smith said.
But that doesn't help the student who just took the test.
Maybe he has other sources of help, and consolation, however.
After the test, one student said, "Just say everyone went to the Hawk afterwards."
DISASTER SITE
WAR ON HEADACHES
DETROIT—(UPI)—Can medical science stamn out headaches?
science stamp out headaches? The American Association for the Study of Headache is seeking the answer. The group has 208 physician and scientist members and puts out a quarterly publication called "Headache," according to the "Encyclopedia of Associations," published by Gale Research Co. of Detroit.
The meeting began Friday evening with an informal dinner at the Virginia Inn. Featured speakers during Saturday's meeting were Dr. Charles Kimball, president of Midwest Research Institute in Kansas City; Dr. Eugene L. Swearingen who will become president of Tulsa University Feb. 1; and Fran Riech, manager of the Eoulder, Colo., Chamber of Commerce.
CHANCELOR W. CLARKE Wescoe gave the opening address stressing the necessity for universities and their surrounding communities to work together.
Reich, who is credited with having much to do with Boulder's transformation from a small university town to a rapidly-growing city which has been adding new enterprises and increased its population 89 per cent during the past decade, said there isno set pattern for city growth.
He said it is the little things that usually count and noted that there are 6,000 or more American cities competing for industry.
Swearingen talked about the ideas of importance between the universities and the cities and methods of developing these areas to their fullest potential. He particularly stressed using the talents of university faculty members in local and community affairs.
tan; Columbia, Mo.; Boulder, Colo.; Lincoln, Neb.; Stillwater and Norman, Okla.; and Ames, Iowa, about the need for more cooperation between "town and gown."
DR. KIMBALL SPOKE TO the leaders from Lawrence; Manhat-
"Perhaps I should not use the term 'town and gown,' for it seems to imply that there must be two separate community interests. This separation has been a supposition for many years, but the forces of a rapidly changing society are making a closer degree of cooperation more imperative." Kimball said.
"I would suggest that we have seen the end of the town and gown philosophy," he said.
FOLLOWING THE THREE major addresses, there was a discussion, period where various smaller meetings of mayors, city managers, chamber managers, editors, or university representatives discussed specific areas of interests.
Topics of discussion included the responsibilities of a university to its home city and surrounding area, the responsibility of a city to its university, the assets represented by the eight universities, and what use is being made of the universities in the economic development of the area.
The group concluded the convention Saturday by attending the Kansas-Oklahoma basketball game as guests of the KU Athletic Department.
