Group decides
Key system may start tomorrow
Junior and senior women at KU may have control of their night life sooner than expected. Maybe by tomorrow night.
The key or card system, which will supercede present closing hours, was not expected to go into effect for several weeks.
"It's just a matter of mechanics," Mrs. Donna Shavlik, assistant to the dean of women, said today. Each group must work out their own problems for handling the key or card arrangement, she explained. Only then can the system be put into operation.
THE DECISION TO go ahead with the plan this week was decided last night in a joint meeting of the AWS Regulations Advisory Board and the living groups standards chairmen.
To implement the program this fall, KU women under the supervision of the AWS Regulations Advisory Board and the Dean of
Women formulated a procedural guideline for living groups to follow.
Living group committees wrote policies. Planners paid particular attention to sign-out procedures, selection of house lock-up systems, checking methods and rule violation penalties.
Each living group will maintain a committee to handle individual infractions of their security hour policy with initiation of the new program. Decisions may be appealed to the AWS Standards Board. The Regulations Advisory Board will continue throughout the year as a study group and advisor to the living groups.
It marks the first time in KU history, women have had the responsibility of regulating their standards of conduct.
KU women in the past have operated under a system of closing hours for all living groups
ASC may air 'oath' debate
A resolution supporting Gerald Ehrenreich's stand on the current loyalty oath controversy will be introduced at tonight's All Student Council (ASC) meeting at 7 in the Sunflower Room of the Union.
JERRY BEAN, Abilene junior and representative of large men's residence halls, who will introduce the resolution, said, "We are not going against the Chancellor, only supporting Gerald Ehrenreich in his position."
Fhrenreich, associate professor at the KU Medical Center in Kansas City, says the rights granted by the first and fourteenth amendments and article one of the U.S. Constitution are violated by the oath, which must be signed by all faculty members of state universities.
FOLLOWING IS THE resolution the ASC will adopt:
Speaker to discuss ills of poverty program
Variety in viewpoint and subject will mark this year's Student Union Activities (SUA) Minority Opinions Forum presentations, says Dennis Taylor, Rancho Cordova, Calif., junior and forum chairman.
Ku Klux Klan; and editors of Ramparts magazine.
"We've sent out over 50 invitations to speak in the last week," Taylor said. "We hope to get representatives of many fields of minority ideas."
Among those contacted have been Dr. Timothy Leary, prominent LSD researcher; Robert Shelton, Imperial Wizard of the
"What we consider a minority opinion, is a majority opinion on the Berkeley campus." Taylor said.
He said he feels the Forum is a good way to acquaint mid-American conservatism with controversies prevalent on the coasts.
"I think it's necessary that we have these people so we can support the things we believe in." Taylor said.
Whereas the signing of a loyalty oath does not serve as a deterrent to subversion, and whereas the mere existence of said oath restricts intellectual freedom, be it resolved that the All Student Council of the University of Kansas supports the position of Dr. Gerald Ehrenreich and his coplaintiff in their suit against the Kansas loyalty oath.
Also on the agenda for new business will be the discussion of an elections system.
Kay Orth, El Dorado senior and sorority representative, and Dick Darville, Shawne Mission senior and large men's residence halls representative, had previously planned to introduce the elections bill tonight.
"SINCE THAT TIME we have talked with Al Martin, Shawnee Mission junior and student body president, and Don Chubb, Topeka junior and president of UP, and tried to work out a proposal that will please everyone," Miss Orth said.

Flu shots underway
A sore throat, a headache and a cough could be signs of smoking too much, or it could be the flu.
"Although the predictions indicate the flu will not be serious this year, you can never be sure," sadi Dr. Schwegler.
In a few months that crippler of six weeks grades and even final grades could be loose on campus. The only positive way to prevent the flu is to get immunized.
The sickness generally lasts for about three days and there are after effects for two or three weeks.
Dr. Raymond Schwegler, Watkins Hospital director, said all KU students may, and should, get shots at the student hospital between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. There is no charge for the shots to students.
"PEOPLE WHO have already had one shot in the past year should come in for a booster," said Dr. Schwegler.
Last year about 5,000 students received immunization.
The flu usually starts in January or February and continues through the spring.
Correction!
The CRC meeting, previously stated as meeting tonight, will meet tomorrow night at 7:30 in the Big Eight Room of the Union.
