AWS petitions in for frosh election
Preliminary petitions submitted yesterday initiated the 1966 Associated Women Students (AWS) freshman elections for house and senate representatives.
Two senators at large and one representative from each dormitory will be chosen Oct. 13 from a slate of 15 candidates.
Applicants take a standard AWS test on Wednesday based on the organization's regulations and structure. Those scoring favorably will be interviewed Thursday evening. The final ballot will be announced on Monday, Oct. 10.
The U.S. Weather Bureau predicts fair to partly cloudy skies tomorrow. Winds 10 to 20 miles per hour. Low in 40s. Precipitation less than five per cent tonight and Wednesday.
Naming of the 50th citee to the Kansas Newspaper Hall of Fame will follow the dedication. The citee, a Kansas editor who has been deceased at least three years, is elected by Kansas editors who have been in the business at least 25 years. Calder M. Pickett, professor of journalism at KU, will preside.
Final activities of the day will be a buffet luncheon in the Kansas Union and the KU vs. Oklahoma football game in Memorial Stadium. Editors will be guests of the University at both events.
The program will also include speeches by Warren K. Agee, dean of the KU school of journalism, who will discuss "A Look Ahead"; and Malcolm W. Applegate, administrative assistant to the dean, whose topic will be "Jobs, Our Students and You."

Construct new courts east of gym
R. Keith Lawton, vice chancellor for operations, said the projects were authorized last year under legislative action and will cost an estimated $40,000.
Six new outdoor recreation courts have been planned for KU and one is now under construction east of new Robinson gym.
Constructed of reinforced concrete, two of the courts will be used for handball and the others tennis and badminton, Lawton said.
Lawton said the new courts were being built to replace student recreation areas near Summerfield Hall which will be razed to make way for construction of the new experimental biology and human development building.
