Year Abroad Granted to 13
Thirteen KU graduate students have been awarded travel grants for direct exchange graduate study at overseas universities during the 1965-66 academic year.
These travel grants are in addition to scholarships covering tuition and expenses. KU recipients for the direct exchange are chosen by the institutions they plan to attend, and KU selects the students from each of the European universities. KU has the largest direct exchange program in the United States.
Ten of the exchange scholars will receive travel grants from the KU Endowment Association funds which are administered by the Council for International Programs under the direction of George M. Beckmann, associate dean of faculties.
FOR THE FIFTH year, Maupin-tour Associates travel agency, with home office in Lawrence, will award a travel allowance to New York, and then round-trip between New York and the British Isles. Lucy Tribble, Jafrey, N.H., will receive the Maupintour Travel Grant for study at the University of Aberdeen, Scotland.
Justine Broberg, Fargo, N.D., has received a Fulbright Travel Grant for Ecole Superieure de Commerce, Clarmont-Ferrand, France, and Thorold E. Roberts, Lawrence, has been awarded a German Student Service Travel Grant to the University of Kiel, Germany.
Those who have been awarded Endowment Association travel grants are:
Joy C. Bullis, to the University of Exeter, England, Davenport, Ia.; James F. Conger, to the University of Tubingen, Germany, Lakota, N.D.; Pauline C. Courchesne, to the University of Strasbourg, France, Holyoke, Mass; John P. Donovan, to the University of Birmingham, England, Somerville, Mass; Sharon L. Foster, to Ecole des Hautes Etudes Commerciales, Paris, France, Birmingham, Mich.;
Walter M. H. mull, to the University of Leeds, England, Eureka Springs, Ark; Robert L. Iversen, to the University of Mainz, Germany, Cedar Rapids, Ia.; Phyllis K. Rueb, to the Technische Hochschule Stuttgart, Germany, St. Francis; Jane Schendel, to the University of Hamburg, Germany, Topeka, and Larry Yarkin, to the University of Tubingen, Germany, Brighton, Mass.
Chaplain Backs Religious Union
By Robert Lovelace
"United we stand. Divided we fall."
Church Union is a pressing question in many church councils today. The question that seems to be asked most is, "What good will church union do?" A common reply is that in the case of church union Christians will be able to stand over other religions in a unified body.
FATHER THOMAS WOODWARD
FATHER THOMAS WOODWARD of Canterbury House and campus Episcopal chapell has his own views on church union. He believes thoroughly in the efforts of missions of combined Catholic and Protestant churches in the big cities. He also feels that Protestant church union is probable in the near future and that Catholic-Protestant union is possible in the distant future.
Father Woodward said he feels the problems of church union lie both with the hierarchy and laymen of most churches. The problem is that both feel loyalty to their particular church. In a church union some rights possibly could be changed, creating an enmity that would dissolve the church union and spread them farther apart.
"Father Tom" feels that church union is an eventuality. The task now is to educate people on church union so when the eventuality comes the people will be able to cast their vote for the most workable and efficient plan.
Fund to Aid Studies In Speech Pathology
The U.S. Office of Education has granted the University of Kansas $2400 for the training of graduate students in speech pathology.
Prof. Margaret Byrne, principal investigator of the grant and chairman of the speech pathology and audiology division at KU, said the funds are being used for the graduate training of four students this summer.
The students, who are studying as clinicians for public schools, are Edward Kelley, Bonner Springs; Mrs. Mae Mitchell, Topeka; Mrs. Frances Schapple, Topeka, and Dorothy Eby, Lawrence.

$100,000 in Average Square Mile Yielded by Minerals in Kansas

Those price tags, with a couple of "ifs" were attached to the state's past and future mineral wealth by a group of geological experts who met at the University to consider the use of operations research for evaluating economic potential of Kansas mineral resources.
An average square mile of Kansas earth has yielded $100,000 in minerals over the past 80 years. And in the next 20 years, it will produce $120,-000.
OR
Seventeen persons attended the meeting, sponsored by the University of Kansas department of petroleum engineering, the Kansas Geological Survey, and the U.S. Bureau of Mines. Concepts from several scientific disciplines were used in the geologists' attempts to develop reliable models for measuring, expanding, and improving the region's mineral endowment.

the chemical and cement industries is plentiful in that area, too, and clays used to make brick, tile, and lightweight concrete blocks, can be found in north central and eastern Kansas.
"Salt exists in almost unlimited amounts in the western half of the state and so do construction materials such as stone, sand, and gravel," says A. L. Hornbaker, head of the mineral resources division for the State Geological Survey.
Volcanic ash used in making insulation materials and filters is abundant in western Kansas, adds Floyd W. Preston, petroleum engineer for the survey, Chalk, used by
Interesting, but that $120,000 figure is not very meaningful, the geologists quickly explain. Not many square miles fit into the "average" category. Instead, mineral production is clustered in a few areas, so most landowners don't see much of this underground wealth.
Take petroleum, for example. The geologists estimate that during the past 80 years, oil and gas have accounted for about 75 per cent of the state's total $8.2 billion mineral production. Roughly one-third of that 75
HERE'S HOW the group arrived at the $120,000 projection: If 1960 production rates continue the next 20 years, more than $9.8 billion in minerals will be dug in Kansas. Divide that by the state's 82,276 square miles, and you end up with a staggering $120,000 value per square mile.
What then will take up the slack? There are numerous possibilities, according to the geologists.
East Asian Studies Assisted by Grant
A $50,000 continuation grant for support of the University of Kansas East Asian Area Studies Center has been received from the Language and Area Center section of the U.S. Office of Education.
per cent was piped from the Ellis-Russell-Barton County area; another one-third from Butler and adjoining counties; and about one-fifth from the Hugoton area. That doesn't leave much production for the rest of the state.
FIGURES LIKE THESE boost up the state-wide average value per square mile to $120,000.
Though the dollar value of mineral production can't possibly be distributed equally on a square mile basis, the geologists hope their facts and figures will provide the groundwork for expanding and diversifying the state's mineral economy. For, as they emphasize, pin-pointing undeveloped mineral areas and determining production shifts in the past are essential first steps in initiating a planned program for mineral development.
Principal investigator of the grant, which will cover the 1965-66 academic year, is Thomas R. Smith, director of the East Asian program at KU. Smith said the grant will help finance salaries, library books, area specialists, and staff and faculty travel.
Unless spectacular new finds occur, geologists predict that oil and gas will decline in total dollar value during the next 20 years. While petroleum products have made up about 75 per cent of the state's mineral wealth during the past 30 years, that percentage likely will drop to 50 per cent or below in the future.
The grant, Smith said, has been continuing since 1959. This year's stipend is a substantial increase, coming to almost twice as much as it was last year.
Professor to Attend Insurance Institute
Harold C. Krogh, professor of business administration, has been awarded a scholarship to attend a weeklong insurance seminar at the University of Wisconsin July 25-31.
The scholarship is for the 43rd CLU Institute, a graduate-level educational program sponsored by the American Society of Chartered Life Underwriters for its members.
