Honors Program Draws Four
Three faculty members and a "triple winner" honors student will participate in a national conference on collegiate honors programs April 7-9 at the Brown Palance Hotel in Denver, Colo.
The faculty are Dean George R. Waggoner and Assistant Dean Robert P. Cobb of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, and Dr. E. Jackson Baur, professor of sociology.
B. George Barisas, Kansas City, Mo., senior, is the student. This year he has won the Rhodes Scholarship for two years of study at Oxford University in England, and also won National Science Foundation and Woodrow Wilson Fellowships in national competitions.
Waggoner will preside at a session on "Experimentation with Honors." Cobb will lead a discussion of special honors activities. Baur will be a panelist on evaluation of honors programs.
Barisas will join students from three other universities in a discussion of honors programs from the student's view.
More than 4,000 senior and junior high school students will be on campus Friday and Saturday for a district music festival of the Kansas State High School Activities Association.
Music Festival Set Here
There are 962 entries in the various categories. Friday's schedule with 288 entries is mostly for bands, orchestras, choruses, and piano soloists. The 674 entries on Saturday are in the vocal and instrumental solo and small ensembles.
Most events will be in Murphy Hall, where festival headquarters will be in the lobby. Use also will be made of facilities in Hoch Auditorium, Bailey Hall and Strong Hall.
Jerry U. Adams is coordinating administrative details of the festival for University Extension.
Student Researches on Cruise
A zoology graduate student has taken off the last quarter of this semester to sail the South Pacific.
The cruise on Stanford University's "Te Vega" is not a rest cure but a National Science Foundation fellowship for seafaring Martin L. Wiley, Pittsburg graduate student.
Wiley is one of 12 advanced zoology students, three scientists and a crew of 15 who will board the floating classroom-laboratory today for a cruise which includes the islands of Fiji, Tonga, Cook and Tahiti in the South Pacific. The cruise will end about June 1.

THE KENNETH Aldred Spencer Memorial Lectures were founded in 1960 at the University of Kansas by relatives and friends of Kansas City industrialist Kenneth A. Spencer, at the time of his death. The income is used to bring to Kansas and to the campus of the University of Kansas distinguished lecturers and scholars in the fields of engineering, science, and business.
Dr. Ramo earned the Ph.D. degree magna cum laude from the California Institute of Technology, of which he is now a trustee.
Kenneth A. Spencer, who died at the age of 58, was best known for his founding of the company which became internationally known as the Spencer Chemical Co. He also was one of the founders of the Midwest Research Institute of Kansas City, Mo., and a director of several locally based companies, as well as an active director of some of the nation's largest corporations.

1st University Review Issue Over Campus
Those who do not receive copies through residence halls and fraternities may do so at the information desk in the Union, or at the information and admissions office on the first floor of Strong Hall, Panning added.
Bill Panning, Ellinwood senior and one of the editors of the periodical, said nearly all of the 10,000 copies printed will be distributed to faculty members, graduate assistants and KU undergraduates.
"WE HAVE NO definite plans for the second issue yet," Panning said, "but it will probably come out sometime during the first part of May."
"The University Review," established to provide a "non-profit outlet for student writing and creative effort in the fields of humanities studies and fine arts," is currently being distributed on the KU campus.
A meeting for those interested in working on the next issue, and issues for next year, has been called for 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, April 14, in the Kansas Union, Panning said.
The current issue of the "Review" contains articles on censorship and pornography, underdeveloped nations, English poet and painter William Blake, Soviet industry, and a book review on "The Philosophy of Enlightenment."
Also included in the issue is a calendar of coming cultural and intellectual events at KU; original poetry by Philip Smith, Onaga senior; and a trilogy of poems which won the William Herbert Cruth Memorial Poetry Competition for 1963.
EDITORIAL STAFF members are Fred Whitehead, Pratt senior; Gary Walker, Wichita senior; Bill Cibes, Altamont senior; Steve Munzer, Salina junior; Panning and Smith.
Art in the first issue was created by Mike Parks, Florissant, Mo., junior.
In the front page statement-of-purpose for the publication, the faculty adviser, Aldon Bell, assistant professor of history, wrote "The University Review is meant to be for students speaking to other students about things which matter intellectually. It is not intended to be
slickly professional, and certainly not trifling. . . . The results of careful thought, cold print, and warm discussion could be important," he added.
