Churches still are tax exempt
WASHINGTON — (UPI)— The Supreme Court rejected today a constitutional attack on the time-honored policy of granting states real estate tax exemptions to churches and parsonages.
Today's action does not affirm the state court ruling nor set a precedent. But it will doubtless be cited in support of exemptions in parallel suits.
The court in a brief order refused to hear appeals from Maryland court decisions upholding the constitutionality of the tax exemption law in that state.
THE MARYLAND case arose from complaints in Baltimore Circuit Court by, among others, Mrs. Madalyn Murray O'Hair, who won one of the court's historic school prayer rullings.
Other complainants were Mr. and Mrs. Lemoin Cree, formerly of Frederick County, Md., now of Washington, D.C., and the Freethought Society of America, which publishes the monthly magazine "American Atheist." Cree, who is president of the society, is a research analyst at Fort Detrich.
Don't throw away those old love letters, at least not the stamps. Old stamps can mean food for hungry families and children overseas.
Sophs to collect stamps for impoverished people
The sophomore class will soon launch a drive on the campus for old stamps, said Dave Keesling. Herrington, vice president of the sophomore class.
Keesling said collection points will be set up at all the living groups. Special emphasis is given on foreign stamps and U.S. commemorative stamps.
The stamps may vary in value
from $1 to $25 to even $100 worth of food. The stamps will be sent to Washington Northern Idaho Council of Churches.
The sophomore class, Keesling said, is also planning to raise volunteers to serve at homes for the aged in the Lawrence area and the Topeka State Hospital.
"Volunteers will write letters, read stories, among other things, besides being a friend to somebody," said Keesling. Anyone interested may call Keesling at VI 2-8410.
Ellsworth tells of funds
million men's residence hall named for his father, former secretary of the KU Alumni Association.
KU has been the main feature in the lives of Douglas County citizens for the past 100 years, he said, and should continue to support administrations which will help KU.
Nearly $12 million in state funds alone has been poured into Kansas University under the administration of Governor William Avery, Republican Congressman Robert F. Ellsworth said this weekend.
Panda bears not mating
Ellsworth spoke Saturday to Collegiate Young Republicans at Fred Ellsworth Hall, the $2.6
LEARN. "THE PANDAS SLEPT in the same cage last night, but did not approach each other," said Zoya Belyavea.
"It's all Chi-Chi's fault—it is just like in human life."
The official said the two pandas spent their third night together but nothing happened. She hinted she thought chances of history's first mating of giant pandas outside their natural habitat of China were waning, for this year at least.
MOSCOW—(UPI) —Time may be running out on hopes for an East-West romance between the giant pandas Chi-Chi and An-An, a Russian zoologist said today. She blamed the London Zoo's female Chi-Chi.
