Class reacts to sweatshirts
Bu RUTH ROHRER
Perhaps Pyrrhus and Cineas were completely off base when they expressed their contempt for the senior class slogan and sweatshirts. Perhaps the class of '67 may someday "inherit the earth" as the slogan on their royal blue sweatshirts proclaims.
So who needs editors? Let's see what the seniors say.
Dennis Pruitt, Overland Park senior, said, "I'm very disappointed in the sweatshirts. I think they could have thought of a much better slogan. I certainly never plan to wear it on the hill.
"IT SEEMS THAT this year the seniors are going to have more social activities, but I don't think we are getting our money's worth out of the outfits," he said.

Ginger Theimer, Colby senior,
said, "I'm glad I don't have one.
If I did I would wear it inside out.
I think the Jayhawker on them looks like a mouse. I haven't heard anyone say he likes
them. The people in my senior seminar came in after the senior coffee with the sweatshirts tucked under their arms as if they were trying to hide them and said they weren't going to wear them."
Chuck Curry, Pratt senior, said, "I'm perturbed at the lack of thought in some of the editors that come out criticizing the class administration. For one thing, it seems like idle criticism; and for another, the officers fully informed everyone about the outfits last spring."
Curry said the class had decided to have more parties instead of buying hats because that seemed to be what the students wanted.
"THE CRITICISM of the senior slogan is completely out of proportion," Curry said. "Are people trying to imply that a student succeeds after graduation because of the slogan on his senior sweatshirt?"
Dave Langdon, Olathe senior,
said he would have like to have a hat but he really didn't mind too much. He said the sweatshirts should have been better.
"I THINK THE SLOGAN is too religious and not humorous enough." Langdon said.
Miss Diana Bossemeyer, Hutchinson senior, said she thinks that the people who chose the slogan either were not considering their classmates, or they have a poor estimate of themselves and their accomplishments.
"I think the quotation shows a lack of imagination and gives little credit to the class. I was extremely unhappy with the choice." Miss Bossemeyer said.
MISS SHERRY KAMPMEIER,
Kansas City senior, said she
thinks the sweatshirts are all
right but she misses the cowboy
hats.
Dave Diepenbrock, Shawnee Mission senior, said, "The only thing I can say about the sweat-shirts without being nasty is that they are blue. About the hats, I

wanted a green beret. I would much rather have a green beret that I could keep for a few years than a gallon of beer which doesn't last very long."

Russians oust China students
MOSCOW—(UPI)—The Soviet Union today ordered all Chinese students in Russia out of the country and told its own students in China to come home.
The latest development in the split between Moscow and Peking was announced by the Soviet news agency Tass under "the principle of reciprocity." It noted that Peking had stopped the education of Soviet citizens in China and it was following suit.
Chinese students in Russia were forbidden further training and education and told to leave the country by the end of the month.
