SUA Approval Given To Carnival Themes
Fairy tales, nursery rhymes and children's stories will serve as the themes for 18 booths and 10 skits highlighting the annual Carnival. Admission to the skirts and games is 10 cents.

Key KU Administrators Return from ACE Meet
Surface, Chancellor W. Clarke Wescoe, and William J. Argersinger, associate dean of finance and research, were participants in the American Council on Education meeting last Thursday and Friday in San Francisco.
Three KU administrators returned Friday night from a San Francisco meeting which was termed informative and stimulating by James R. Surface, vice chancellor and dean of faculties.
The theme of the meeting was "Autonomy and Interdependence." Surface said. Institutions of higher learning need to be both autonomous and interdependent with other institutions because they are dedicated to serving the nation as well as their own localities, Surface said, explaining the meeting's title.
BEING DEPENDENT upon some other institution or agency, such as the federal government, sometimes sidetracks a university from its major purpose of teaching. Surface said. Universities and colleges all over the nation are involved with research for the government, and this takes talent away from teaching staffs. But it is this interdependency which has helped America progress. Surface said.
Cooperation between universities was a part of the central theme. Surface said the meeting pointed out the necessity for closer cooperation as a method of guarding against unnecessary duplication of energies.
This is a problem the Kansas Board of Regents is already concerned with, Surface said. KU has the state's strangle-hold on law and medicine, while Kansas State University is the state's agricultural school. The two universities cooperate in the areas of nursing and dietetics. There are indications this type of cooperation between Kansas institutions of higher learning will increase in the future, Surface said.
Main speakers at the meeting were Governor Edmund Brown of California and President James Perkins of Cornell University.

East Germans Threaten To Stop Berlin Passes
Tuesday, Oct. 6, 1964
The state division of highways announced that the state has bought and taken possession of Hell, a service station and restaurant near here in the Mojave Desert.
The agreement was concluded only last week. It provides for four visiting periods a year for West Berliners with relatives in East Berlin.
(UPI)—Communist East Germany today threatened to call off its border pass agreement with West Berlin because of the death of a communist border guard yesterday in the tunnel through which 57 refugees escaped.
The East German Communist Party newspaper Neues Deutschland charged that West Berlin "bandits" killed Cpl. Egon Schultz as the tunnel was discovered early yesterday.
DESERT CENTER, Calif —Hell is finally going to be paved over!
Officials said the facilities were purchased to permit widening of a freeway.
But western witnesses said neither the refugees nor the West Berliners who had helped them build the tunnel were armed. There was speculation Schultz was killed by mistake by another border guard or had tried to flee himself.
NEUES DEUTSCHLAND warned that West Berlin would have to choose between "continuation of the pass agreement or a continuation of the clashes and bloody provocations on the state border."
Hell Finally Gets Good Paving Job
"One cannot have both at the same time: on the one hand accept the pass agreement and on the other hand murder people," the communist newspaper said.
"ONE FACT IS CLEAR: the shots fired at Cpl. Schultz are shots fired at the pass agreement. The West Berlin Senate (Executive Council) had better realize that."
The 57 refugees were the second largest group to escape since the wall was built in August 1961. One hundred fifty-one fled through a tunnel three months after the wall went up. But since then, communist surveillance has become tighter and escapes are harder.
The 57 were said to range in age from $1^{\frac{1}{2}}$ to 71 years. There were 23 men, 31 women, and 3 children in the group that crawled through a 140-yard tunnel Saturday and Sunday night.
EAST GERMAN POLICE discovered the tunnel early yesterday and fired 200 machine gun shots. None of the refugees was hit.
About 800,000 were expected to use the communist passes.
Neues Deutschland praised Cpl. Schultz today as a model soldier and a candidate for communist party membership at the time of his death
The visits through the wall were scheduled to start Oct. 30. More than 135,000 West Berliners have applied for passes thus far. It is only the second chance they have had to see their relatives in the three years since the wall sealed off the soviet sector.
DETAILS OF THE TUNNEL and the escape planning became known today.

Band Members Work For University Fund
Police Have Hard Job Here
KU band members will discard their musical instruments Friday and Saturday and go to work for the Greater University Fund.
About 100-125 band members will help GUF prepare the 11th annual mailing of the GUF annual report and roll of honor.
The GUF is the arm of the University which encourages and receives gifts from alumni and friends to help meet KU needs which cannot be met through state support.
Unet of the KU police is E. P. Moomau who was a former Superintendent of the Kansas Highway Patrol.
KU band members will stuff 35,000 envelopes during the mailing marathon in Allen Field House. Russell Wiley, professor of band, emphasized yesterday that band member attendance is not required.
The KU police have more authority than the Lawrence police because they have joint commissions as city police officers, county deputy sheriffs and state officers. They enforce both city, county and state law on campus.
The band numbers about 175 members, but many have jobs and will be unable to attend.
Chief Moomau is a graduate of the FBI Academy, Northwestern University Traffic Institute for Police Supervisors, and has been in police work for 35 years.
Some students confuse the campus police with the Keystone Kops. This just isn't the case.
Friday's schedule calls for stuffing
By Terry Joslin
The KU police cooperate with the city police, fire marshall, the sheriff's office, the highway patrol, the Kansas Bureau of Investigation and the FBI.
Although most of the police's work deals with enforcement of KU traffic laws, campus police have a large range of duties from manning control booths to investigating bomb scares.
The 26 officers of the force are divided in three shifts and are on duty 24 hours.
Captain Willard Anderson is in charge of the day shift, Lieutenant William Fenstemaker is in charge of the afternoon shift, and Lieutenant Harold Hunsinger and Sergeant
Donald Dugan, assistant secretary to the GUF, said the band will be paid for their services with a contribution to the Russell Wiley Band Scholarship fund. The amount will be based upon total number of hours worked.
Charles Hanna are in charge of the night shifts.
The police force was established by the Board of Regents to enforce the laws set down for the University. It is under the authority of Vice Chancellor Keith Lawton, in charge of operations.
envelopes from 3:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Band members will work most of the day Saturday completing the task.
The KU police have one patrol car, two jeeps, and one traffic cycle to help them patrol the campus. Each of the vehicles is equipped with a radio to keep the office informed.
Decision to act as mailing clerks was reached after a vote by band members.
Ian Davis is the office manager of the police business office in Hoch. This is where all the traffic fines are to be paid and police business conducted.
The GUF annual report lists names of contributors during the fiscal year ending April 30,1964,and points out the organization's achievements and aspirations.
KU Professor For 36 Years Dies at 87
John Jefferson Wheeler, associate professor of mathematics at KU for 36 years before his 1947 retirement, died last night in Lawrence.
Mr. Wheeler was 87.
He had been a member of the Plymouth Congregational Church, Sigma Nu social fraternity, Chi Iota honorary fraternity, and the American Mathematical Society.
Survivors include his wife, Mrs. Sophia Wheeler, a sister, Miss Emmaline Wheeler, Sheridan, Ind.; and two children, Mrs. B. Norvin Souder, Prairie Village, and B. Frederick Wheeler, Haddonfield, New Jersey.
Services will be at 2:00 p.m. Wednesday at the Rumsey Funeral Home Chapel.
The family requests that no flowers be sent.
them students, built the tunnel 35 feet under the wall. They worked in five-man shifts.
WHEN THE TUNNEL PASSED under the border, another sign went up that said: "You Are Now Leaving The French Sector." There are similar signs on the surface.
When they started to dig in the cellar of a six-story apartment house along the western side of the border, they put a playful sign that said: "Walter, We Are Coming Now." Walter is East German communist leader Walter Ulbricht.
The builders posted a lookout on a nearby roof in West Berlin. He would watch the communist guards across the border and warn the tunnelers by telephone if their work was discovered.
The shifts worked 10 days running so that the communists would not become suspicious through constant comings and goings. Two men dug and three men removed sand and stored it in the cellar.
ONE OF THE FIRST REFUGEES through was a 71-year-old pensioner who had trouble negotiating the tunnel because it was only two feet high and one and one-half feet wide.
A woman managed to carry her 18-month old baby through that space.
"I kind of like it . . ." said one.
New Blake Causes Talk
"I kind of like it . . ." said one.
"Unfortunately." said another.
And, so it went, with opinions mixed on the general architecture of the new Blake Hall. Some liked it. Some did not. Some couldn't decide.
A "galloping" poll of practicing architects in Lawrence, faculty members of the School of Art and Architecture, and architecture majors resulted in this potpourri of thoughts.
Most of the people interviewed were not too favorably impressed by the new structure.
"It is contemporary style," David Hermansen, assistant professor of architecture, said, "but not good contemporary style. The use of the Mansard roof is out of character, out of proportion, and unfortunate."
Dana Dowd, practicing architect in Lawrence, commented that "... the outside conforms very well with Kansas architecture. Kansans have awfully bad taste, though."
"I do not like it at all. Putting up a building with sandstone and a red roof doesn't make it relate to the rest of the campus." Sam Love, Pittsburg junior, said. "Elsewhere the building might look alright, but it just doesn't fit on campus."
"It looks as if they constructed the building and put the red roof on as an afterthought in an attempt to relate it to the rest of the campus." Don Morris, Parkville, Mo., junior, said.
The only complimentary opinion concerning the new building came from a KU alumnus who remembers old Blake. Maurice Keys, practicing architect, said, "I really kind of like it. It reminds me a lot of the old Blake."
Weather
Although fall weather seems to have hit Lawrence early don't dig out your long underwear yet. The weather bureau predicts fair weather today with a warming trend creeping into the area. Winds will be from the Southeast at a speed of about 5-15 mph. Tonight the temperature will dip to the lower 30's. Tomorrow's high is expected to be near 70 degrees.
