CYR's Planning For Goldwater
Senator Barry Goldwater will speak at 12 noon, Tuesday, October 13, on the south steps of the Capitol in Topeka.
The KU Collegiate Young Republicans Club is organizing a group to attend the speech.
"The chances are very good of the KU group getting its picture taken with Goldwater," said Bill Porter, president of the CYR.
Douglas County Republicans are taking reservations for seats on a chartered bus to Topeka until this Friday noon. The tickets cost $1.50 round trip. "The KU group may charter a separate bus, but plans aren't definite yet," Porter said.
Governor John Anderson will introduce Goldwater.
Goldwater will speak the next day in Kansas City, Mo.
False Teeth Break Causing Absence
Want to know a really fresh excuse for not attending a class?
After 24 years of teaching journalism at KU, Elmer F. Beth, professor of journalism, thought he had heard them all—good and bad—until yesterday.
A conscientious student phoned to explain that he would have to be absent because he'd had an accident: He dropped his false teeth and broke them, and he cannot speak well without them.
What Do You Think?
- Is desegregating our fraternities like fighting city hall?
- Is our university capable of being completely desegregated?
- Will the demonstrations during the homecoming half-time be necessary to reach a solution?
- Do fraternities at KU have different policies from those at the University of Mississippi?
- Will the homecoming of 1964 be a peaceful one?
It will be one to remember.

KANU Ranked Third In Number of FM Fans
In the past, it awoke at 12:00 a.m.
and flew until 11:00 p.m. Since
Thursday, it has awakened at 8:30
a.m. and flown until 11:00 p.m.
KANU flies with a speed close to the speed of light.
What is KANU? KANU is the KU frequency modulated (fm) station on the hill. It operates on 91.5 megacycles.
KANU started broadcasting on Sept. 15, 1952, and today is rated by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) as the third most listened to fm educational radio station in the United States.
KANU is not here primarily to serve the students, but to advance educational information to the people in this area who cannot attend KU. KANU's largest listening audience is in Kansas City; the second largest group is in Topeka; and the third largest group is here in Lawrence.
Shot Stations Established
KU students today were urged to get free influenza vaccinations from the Student Health Service. To help them obtain the vaccinations, stations will be set up in four academic buildings next week.
"Medical authorities do not expect this to be a serious influenza year," Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the Health Service, said, "but a close living group, such as we have at the University of Kansas, should have at least half its number vaccinated to prevent any possibility of an epidemic."
Stations in academic buildings will be open from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. beginning Monday. Vaccinations will be given Monday in Strong Hall; Tuesday in Malott Hall; Wednesday in Summerfield Hall; and Thursday in the new Engineering building.
KU students take an active part in producing each day's broadcasts, but this is not the primary function of the station.
Vaccinations also are available Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., at Watkins Memorial Hospital. Up to Oct.1, approximately 1,200 flu shots had been given at the hospital.
KANU is completely non-commercial and is supported by the University.
The University also operates two other radio stations. KUOK, an am station on the 630 frequency, is a commercial station and KFKU, which is also an am station but noncommercial, shares the 1250 frequency with radio station WREN of Topeka.
KUOK, which broadcasts from 4:00 p.m. until midnight is solely for student experience and enjoyment. KUOK does not reach the students via a radio tower, but through the electrical wiring to most of the campus.
KFKU presents mostly educational programs through the WREN tower in Topeka for one hour a day. It can be heard from 7:30 a.m. until 8:00 a.m. and from 1:30 until 2:00 p.m. on the WREN schedule.
KANU has the largest audience of the three stations with an estimated 30,000 regular listeners.
The KANU broadcasting time is broken down as follows: educational talks, 10 per cent; news and background, 5 per cent; sports, 5 per cent; serious music, 55jer cent; jazz, 5 per cent, and other music, 20 per cent.
Between 60 and 70 per cent of KANU's broadcasts are now in stereo multiplex.
