Embalming study made
A study, "The Kansas State Board of Embalming," has been published by the Governmental Research Center at KU.
Written by James T. Havel, research assistant, the study is one of the continuing Governmental Research Series published by the Center.
The publication, an analysis of the Kansas State Board of Embalming as a representative professional licensing board, attempts to illustrate some of the more important problems of occupational licensing and perhaps point the way to their solution in the larger context of state licensing activities in general.
AMONG THE PROBLEMS under consideration are the relation of the Board, the public and the Kansas Funeral Directors' Association; the arguments for and against changes in the present system; the possibilities of the Board's restriction of competition; and how the licensing boards can be made more responsible to the public.
The author also notes the growth of the funeral directors' movement in the U.S., licensing under the Kansas Board of Health and under the Kansas Board of Embalming; and the current structure and operation of the Board.
Further information regarding the study may be obtained from the Governmental Research Center, Blake Hall, KU.

Freedom marchers head home, tired, sore
JACKSON, Miss. — (UPI) — Foot-weary participants in the "Mississippi Freedom March" scattered to their homes yesterday after the end of the three-week protest capped when 15,000 singing, changing demonstrators
gathered at the heavily guarded state capitol.
"We're mainly concerned with seeing that everybody gets home safe," said a spokesman at the march headquarters. "We don't want anything to happen here
like it did after Selma."
Immediately following the giant Selma-to-Montgomery march in Alabama last year, a white civil rights worker, Mrs. Viola Liuzzo, was shot and killed as she drove along a highway.
