Prof. Clark's paper, "Methodological Problems in the Sociology of Religions," centers on campus religious organizations that are supported by public associations and not by churches.
The study was done by Prof. Clark and his wife at nine different universities in the state of Missouri, Kansas, Colorado, Wyoming, Idaho, Oregon and Washington. Mrs. Clark, who is now vacationing in Europe, is a graduate of KU. Following the presentation of the paper, Prof. and
PROF. MARANELL'S paper relates to bigotry, anti-Semitism and anti-Negro attitudes among students in certain parts of this country. In "Some Correlates of Bigotry," Prof. Maranell examines the political and religious correlates of these attitudes. It is a report on two surveys made in the South and in the Midwest.
Mrs. Clark will also be publishing a monograph on their findings.
