Final 'review'—
Continued from page 1
Nancy Fields, Bartlesville, Okla., junior and member of the committee, said that of four deans she talked with, two were definitely for a review week, one would not commit himself and another was skeptical.
A resolution concerning stop week was taken before the University Senate last year by the ASC and was rejected.
"I THINK THE objection the faculty had last year was that they were asked for a complete stop week," Miss Eckhoff said. "The idea of a review week is much more reasonable."
The committee will meet at 7 p.m. Tuesday in the ASC offices
Fraser is to be open in 8 weeks
"They're all the same. A building's a building. They're all headaches.
As he said this, Pat Green, construction superintendent, was looking at one building in particular—New Fraser.
And what he saw, rising from the brick, board and bottle strewn construction-site, was a partially finished $2.2 million super-building.
IN FRONT OF THE building a couple of heavy-jacketed men smoothed damp concrete into order as a step. Another two men stoked a fire that singed refuse and shot white ashes into the air.
A few ashes drifted downwind and whirled into the "paroummmming" concrete mixer.
Green walked, on planks, over the wet concrete, and, trading cold and light for warmth and dark, entered the seven-story structure through a loosely-hung plywood door.
Green climbed the concrete steps leading from floor to floor. The freshly painted walls around him were streaked with light from the naked bulbs and looked wet because of it.
HE STOPPED ON every floor to check with the carpenters or painters or masons.
And, on every floor, the halls were littered with all the things that litter halls of buildings in progress — coats, screwdrivers, boards, black lunch pails, and levels.
Here a painter touched yellow onto a wall. There a carpenter added finishing touches to a cabinet. Everywhere, a lot of work has been done. A lot more remains to be done.
Fraser is scheduled for completion by next semester, now, less than eight weeks away. Will they make it?
"that's a good question," said Green. He wasn't sure.
in the Kansas Union to compile the reactions of the school administrators. A resolution will be written and presented to the University Senate in March.
The 15-member joint committee is co-chairmaned by Danny Hornbeck, Overland Park junior and chairman of the ASC academic affairs committee, and Mary Jane Eckhoff, Leawood senior and chairman of the Student Advisory Board stop week committee.
Halls to host prep seniors
Approximately 60 high school senior boys will participate in KU's Men's Scholarship Hall Weekend Saturday and Sunday.
The 250 residents of Battenfeld, Grace Pearson, Jollife, Pearson and Stephenson will be the hosts. Steven C. Frisbie, Fulton junior, is general chairman.
The guests will arrive Saturday at noon and take tours of the KU campus. Saturday evening they will attend a scholarship hall dinner in the Kansas Union. Later, they will attend the Sunflower basketball double-header in Allen Field House.
On Sunday, they will attend church and then have Sunday dinner at the scholarship halls.
Object of the program is to interest friends of current scholars in the scholarship hall operation. The scholars share the work of the household tasks and share the cost of operation. The savings under board and room costs elsewhere create a $300 scholarship.
KUOK contest
Residents of eight KU dormitories will be involved in radio station KUOK's "The Prize Peddler" contest Dec. 11-16.
Every evening four KUOK staff members will go to each of the dormitories, call the radio station and announce their presence on the air.
According to William Waller, Prairie Village senior and station publicity chairman, the first residents to identify the KUOK representatives will be awarded prizes.
Peace Corps director takes issue with draft
WASHINGTON —(UPI)—The Peace Corps, acting in the face of "increased pressure," is advising corpsmen on how best to cope with local draft boards that call them up from overseas for military service.
Peace Corps Director Jack Hood Vaughn, in a speech Thursday at Utah State University in Logan, took sharp issue with the policy of some local draft boards, declaring that corps men were "second to no other American"—including soldiers in Viet Nam.
"I am ready to dispute anyone
on that point, including 4.000 draft boards if it comes to that," Vaughn said.
"PERHAPS I AM loading the question, but I believe that if I could ask our young men in combat a single question about the Peace Corps, it would be this:
'If it were in your power to defer, for two years, a qualified man whose service elsewhere might in some very small way lessen the chances of this kind of thing happening again . . . would you do so?'
Nations hit U.S. policy
PARIS—(UPI)—France and the Soviet Union, in an attack on U.S. Viet Nam policy, charged today that "outside" intervention had caused the war in Southeast Asia to reach grave proportions.
In a joint declaration, President Charles de Gaulle and Soviet Premier Alexei N. Kosygin warned that the war threatened to spread beyond the borders of Viet Nam and imperiled world peace.
The communique ending Kosygin's nine-day official visit here called the Vietnamese war "the chief obstacle to an international relaxation of tension and the establishment of lasting peaceful relations between numerous countries."
IN WORDING and acceptance of broad political lines, the Franco-Soviet document held no surprises. It made the same general appeals for world peace, closer East-West and increased Franco-Soviet cooperation as did the joint communique issued at the end of De Gaulle's tour of Russia last summer.
It did, however, hold out the possibility of a pan-European summit conference to discuss European security problems and cooperation between Communist and Western nations.

But, so far, the French have stood firm on their refusal to permit East Germany to take part in such a conference since De Gaulle does not recognize the Communist regime. There was no indication in today's document that De Gaulle was prepared to abandon this stand.
To date, only Phillip J. Wagner,
24, of Felton, Calif., a Peace Corps volunteer in Peru, has been inducted. Ten others have been granted deferments, four are facing callup, and 21 are in an "unresolved" category.
"I believe the answer would be 'yes.'" Vaughn said.
ONE OTHER volunteer—Fred Lonidier, 24, of Oroville, Calif. has been called for induction. It was he who focused attention on the Peace Corps-draft conflict when he complained in a letter to the editor of the Manila Times before he was sent home from the Philippines.
Both Wagner and Lonidier came under the jurisdiction of the Butte County, Calif., draft board at Oroville. Board Chairman Robert O'Brien has said he opposes a policy that permits the Peace Corps to "keep boys out of the draft."
Eight steps to follow in the face of "increased pressure" from the draft were contained in the December issue of "Volunteer," a monthly magazine for peace corpsmen.
