First Art Camp Exhibit Of Summer Begins Today
Rv Mike Shearer
The first in a summer series of art camp exhibits will begin today.
Marjorie Whitney, director of the art division, and Arvid Jacobson, assistant director, will select a representative cross-section of camp art work for display in the exhibition gallery of Murphy Hall. The display will last one week and will be followed by weekly exhibits for the duration of the camp.
The works displayed will represent the classes of four divisions of the art camp-painting, sketching, design, and commercial art. There are 250 art campers this year, and all will have something displayed in the summer's exhibits.
Two All-State Gridders Sign
Two all-state football players have signed letters of intent to enroll at KU. Coach Jack Mitchell announced recently that Michael Harris of Terre Haute, Ind., and William Hunt of Hackensack, N.J., will join the Jayhawk gridders this fall.
Harris, "6'-3", 205, lettered four years as a halfback and fullback on the Paul Schulte High School varsity team. He was named to several all-state teams including the Catholic High School All-American squad and Indiana all-conference teams.
In addition to football honors, Harris lettered four years in both basketball and track. He was listed on the Western Indiana Conference basketball teams for three years and took part in the state track finals, running the 440-yard dash.
At 5'-10", 180, Hunt is also a three-sport prep star. He was named to the New Jersey all-state football first team on both offense and defense. A right halfback on the "go" team, Hunt was an outstanding safety man on defense.
Captain of both the football and basketball teams during his senior year, Hunt was all-league in both sports. As a member of the track team he won several state awards in the 100-yard dash, 220-yard dash and the long jump.
Eleven KU students from Rooks County have received Judge W. B. Ham Scholarships for 1965-66.
The exhibition gallery is not as large as the art camp needs. Jacobson said the work will fill all the space available quite easily.

Ham Scholarships Listed for 1965-66
The scholarships are provided by income from 750 acres of land giver to the Endowment Association in 1950. The scholarships were established as a memorial to Judge W. B. Ham by his heirs. Judge Ham practiced law in Stockton for 49 years.
Entering freshmen from Rocks County who received the scholarships are Jack K. Horner, Plainville; Rodger and Robert Taylor, Plainville; and Mark Osborn, Stockton.
Jacobson noted that exhibits of past years have been quite well liked by the other campers and KU students. Jacobson teaches cartooning in the art camp and will exhibit a sample of camp humor in the exhibit.
Renewal Judge W. B. Ham Scholarships were awarded to Nathan T. Becker, David Darnell, Larry D. Black, and Michael L. Nicholas, all of Plainville; Susan Marie Saindon and Phyllis Ann Saindon, Zurich, and Jeffrey S. Nichols, Stockton.
Besides cartoons, there will be a generous display of water colors, oil paintings, fashion sketches, freehand drawings, designs, commercial art work, industrial designs, nature sketches, and pastel colors. The craft classes take a little longer to produce so they will be shown in later exhibits.
Violence in Cab Strike
NEW YORK—(UPI)—Nine taxi-cabs were damaged yesterday as vandalism and violence flared again in the fourth day of a drivers' strike for union representation.
"Factors Affecting Pitch Discrimination" was the subject of a government-financed research study recently completed by John R. Bergen, assistant professor of education.
RECORDS
Bergen's findings, if accepted, would have their greatest practical value in the field of music education, where accuracy in pitch is basic and important. His studies also might be a step in the investigation of nonfactual learning processes, such as those used in music education, right now described by Bergen as slow.
He said the theory is opposed to the traditional idea of memory as a "stimulus trace," which would be represented in Bergen's experiments as a constant repetition of a pitch, a period of silence, and again, ideally, remembrance.
Recreation Planners Hold KU Conference
The project concerned itself with "the nature of memory in respect to pitch," according to Bergen. The study has proposed a new theory of memory, that "memory is an identity response," an "imitation of the stimulus" or input of knowledge, in this case a pitch.
In his experiments, this theory would be represented by a subject's exposure to a pitch, his immediate repetition of that pitch, and, ideally, remembrance after a period of silence.

He also flew four Super Sabres to the Royal Danish Air Force at Karup, Denmark, and four others from Germany to the Kansas Air National Guard at Wichita.
"What an impressive view—I wish I could have had more time up there." He described the band of colors at the horizon—browns and greens of earth merging with clouds and haze, with zones of light blue, dark blue and purple fading into space.
He has more than 3,300 flying hours in more than 30 different types of aircraft, mainly jet fighters.
IN JANUARY he was named among the country's 10 outstanding men by the U.S. Junior Chamber of Commerce.
Engle spent four years flying the F-100 Super Sabres with the 309th Tactical Fighter Squadron at George Air Force Base, Calif. He made 10 transatlantic fighter flights to Spain, Italy, Germany, France and England.

His view stretched from San Francisco to Baja California below the Mexican border.
The institute is part of a vast program to improve the teaching of science and mathematics. Merlin D. Harmony, assistant professor of chemistry, says the purpose of the institute is to train students in chemistry laboratory technique and to give the students an opportunity to learn the methods of research.
Each student is under the supervision and direction of a faculty member on a one-to-one basis. The institute covers a 10-week period with a full week of laboratory training. The four main branches of chemistry, organic, inorganic, analytical and physical, will all be covered.
A total of $18,200 has been provided the KU chemistry department in support of the summer institute program by the National Science Foundation.
Purpose of the flight was to obtain precise measurements in infrared and ultraviolet wave lengths of the horizon.

KU Alumnus, X-15 Pilot Is Youngest Astronaut
Sixteen representatives of the Kansas Recreation Society met at KU this week with Prof. Larry Heeb, state recreation consultant, to plan the annual Kansas Recreation Conference to be held here Nov. 22. The educational program is a cooperative effort of the Society and University
HE WAS CHOSEN for the X-15 program 10 days after graduation from the Aerospace Research Pilot School at Edwards Air Force Base. Last September, at the convention of the Air Force Association, he was named the Air Force's outstanding junior officer for the preceding year.
The program gained one student over last year's institute. There are 10 students in the chemistry division this year as compared to nine last year.
A University of Kansas '55 graduate became the country's youngest astronaut this week when he flew more than 53 miles into space.
Of his 11-minute flight, Engle said:

Engle also is featured on a new Air Force ROTC recruiting poster, whose general theme is "From Air Force ROTC cadet to X-15 pilot." At KU Engle was commissioned through the Air Force ROTC program. He also received a bachelor's degree here in aeronautical engineering.
He is Capt. Joe H. Engle, who took off from Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., in an X-15 and reached 282,000 feet. Engle, an Air Force captain, hit a speed of 3,477 miles an hour, and is now both the 12th and youngest American to qualify for the pilot-astronaut rating by soaring past 264,-000 feet.
