Scholarship halls to have few openings in February Space will be at a premium in KU's scholarship halls when classes begin the spring semester. The Office of Student Financial Aid announced today that a limited number of openings will be available in the men's and women's halls beginning in February. "SCHOLARSHIP STUDENTS cannot always keep their grades above a semester grade point average of 1.5," a spokesman for the office said. "When that occurs, they are asked to leave the dormitories." Students interested must file an application prior to Dec. 1, if they wish to be considered for appointments to a scholarship hall. There are five men's halls, Battenfeld, Grace Pearson, Jolliffe, Pearson and Stephenson, and four women's halls, Douthart, Miller, Sellards and Watkins. APPLICATIONS ARE available at the Office of Student Financial Aid, 26 Strong Hall. The office also announced that all available cash scholarship funds have been committed for the 1966-67 school year, and no applications will be accepted for cash scholarships for the spring semester. However, under the National Defense Student Loans, some limited funds are still available. Applications will be accepted by the aid office as long as funds permit.

Lujan, a member of the Democratic state platform committee last summer, said, "I don't see where the backlash is going to affect Brooke. He is a well-educated, middle class liberal and has an Italian wife; and the backlash is composed of the immigrants and the poor." Grumm said Brooke has a chance to win. "The fact that he is a Negro may keep a lot of unthinking people from voting for him, but this is a mistake because he is more conservative on the race issue than Peabody," he said. IN THE ILLINOIS senatorial campaign, Paul Douglas (D) is running against Charles Percy (R). The three professors predicted that Percy will win for a number of reasons—one of which is the white backlash. Grumm said, "Douglas has been a strong civil rights advocate and Chicago has had its problems with civil rights. However, Percy presents a very enlightened view of the race issue." "ON THE OTHER hand, Percy is young and has the admiration of youth." Grumm said. He felt that there would be a sympathy vote for him since the murder of his daughter. Nehring said, "I don't think the backlash in Illinois is particularly significant because Percy is liberal and has worked hard to get the Negro support. However, Percy is likely to receive the backlash vote because Douglas has declared himself strongly for civil rights." Fraternities seek registration now KU students interested in joining a fraternity should start registering now. Pete Woodsmall, Mission sophomore, chairman of the On Campus Rush Committee, said students may get registration cards at the Dean of Men's office, 220 Strong. THEY WILL then be sent to the fraternities for review, and the students will be contacted by the fraternities. Once the cards are filled out, they should be returned to the Dean of Men's office, Woodsmall said. There will be a dinner shortly after Thanksgiving vacation for all registered students. "In this way the students may see how the fraternities operate," Woodsmall said. Even if a student is not interested in going to the dinner, he should still contact the fraternity of his choice to show he is still interested. International Club and SUA present Mme. M. S.
