Comedians star in summer films
Famous comedians are being featured in the Student Union Activities Summer Comedy Film Series. Such favorites as Buster Keaton, W. C. Fields and Charlie Chaplin will be seen in their historic comic glory each Monday and Thursday at 7:30 p.m. in Dyche Auditorium.
Doug Ruhe and Rich Danielson, chairmen of the Summer Comedy Classic Film Series, hope this summer's effort will begin a tradition at KU. On many college campuses Humphrey Bogart movies, old-time wild Westerns, and other types of classical films are shown continuously during final week.
THE FILMS ALLOW STUDENTs to shout, scream and release some of the conventional final week tension. "Such entertainment is very practical from a psychological point of view." commented Danielson. "I think KU needs a series of really good films strictly for entertainment. There's no reason why we should be drowned in the cultural back-waters!"
Ruhe says of this summer's series, "We encourage yelling and laughing. That's the best way to get the full enjoyment out of these films."
Alumnus named to nuclear honor
Ernest D. Klema, former Summerfield scholar and holder of two degrees from KU, has been named a "Fellow of the American Nuclear Society."
Klema, who earned the A.B degree in chemistry in 1941 and the M.A. in physics from K.U. in 1942, is now chairman of the department of engineering sciences at the Technological Institute of Northwestern University. He grew up in Salina.
The citation for Dr. Klema reads: "He has been deeply committed to nuclear technology as a scientist, a pedagogue, and as an administrator, both inside and outside the academic environment."
The American Nuclear Society has about 7,000 members. The honor of "Fellow" is reserved for exceptional attainment in science or engineering in research and invention, in technical leadership, or in outstanding teaching.
Sprinter Meade to dash for KU
Commenting on possible plans for fall, Ruhe said, "We hope to be able to bring some of the Federico Fellini classics to campus if there is enough interest shown."
SEASON TICKETS FOR the Summer Comedy Film Series can be purchased at the Union Information Counter for $3. Single admission to each film is 50c.
Julio Meade, an outstanding sprinter-quarter miler in high school ranks, has signed a national letter of intent with KU. The announcement concerning Meade, a graduate of Andrew Jackson High School of New York City, was made today by Jayhawk Coach Bob Timmons.
Meade's time of 46.8 in the 440-yard dash is the fastest in the nation among high school athletes. He has run the 100-yd. dash in 9.5 and the 220-yd. dash in 20.4, with both times as top ranked marks. Meade also has a relay time of 46.7 for the 440. He recently won the 440-yd. dash at the Golden West track meet in record time.
Timmons said he is thrilled with the addition of Meade to the KU track program. "Julio fits right in with our philosophy at Kansas of recruiting the greatest runners in the country. We hope to blend the talents of the best boys in Kansas with the finest athletes in the nation to have a team that can compete successfully at high levels," Timmons said.

Wilcox says he is often bemused by actions of the Minutemen.
"DEPUGH (MINUTEMAN national coordinator) has an exaggerated idea of my importance in the so-called 'Communist movement.' When he blasted me two years ago he thought he had torn into 'Mr. Untouchable' himself. I felt flattered."
DePugh also says that Jerry Brooks, Wilcox's informant, has little importance in the organization. He told Kansas City Star reporter Charles Powers that anything Brooks said should be "taken with a great big grain of salt."
ONE OF DEPUGH'S fragment organizations, the Patriotic Party, will meet in Independence, Mo., July 3 and 4. The Patriotic Party was formed to take control of the American right-wing. Representatives from 30 or 40 "conservative" organizations will be present.
Wilcox himself has been the subject of an interview with a staff writer from Ramparts Magazine, a liberal Catholic journal. The writer spent four days with Wilcox researching Minutemen activities. The story will appear in the September issue of the magazine.

The counselors, Dean Emily Taylor and Dean Donald Alderson meet with the previewers in the evening to further orient them to University regulations. One of the first rules the previewer encounters is 10:30 closing hours, which will apply to all prospective freshmen. Every effort is made to acquaint the previewer with the ways of higher education which he will be confronting in the fall.
Previews一
KANSAS CITY, Mo. —(UPI)— Black bears are on the prowl again in the homeland of the greatest bar hunter of them all. The carcasses of two which came too close to city skyscrapers proved it.
Previews have a successful ten year history at KU. This summer there will be ten preview sessions with approximately 280 students attending each session.
Bars invade area near Lawrence
Summer Session Kansan
Two black bears, each weighing about 200 pounds, were shot within 24 hours in wooded areas within 50 miles of Kansas City.
A POSSE of officers Tuesday night shot and killed a black bear which invaded "picnic and hunting country," near Oak Grove, Mo., about 25 miles from Kansas City. Wednesday night Douglas County, Kan., sheriff's deputies killed another black bear near Baldwin City, Kan., some 60 miles from Oak Grove.
Missouri conservation agent Tommy Wright suggested that the bears were itinerants, traveling separately from one range to another and possibly from the Missouri woods that were home to Daniel Boone more than a century ago after he migrated from Kentucky.
THEIR CARCASSES demolished the arguments of skeptics. They had discredited increasingly frequent reports of bear sightings in relatively heavily populated areas, although experts had identified tracks found along streams, in fields and woodlands.
In the past two weeks, the presence of a bear or bears in four different localities in western Missouri was confirmed by conservation agents.
They had no explanation for the migration,possibly from the Ozark Mountain areas of Southern Missouri,where bears have been seen occasionally for many years.
BEARS ARE protected under Missouri law. Wright ordered officers who gathered near Oak Grove to kill that bear because it was "to close to a community of more than one million persons." The crowd which had gathered in a small area included men armed with everything from BB guns to high-powered rifles and also posed a hazard, he said.
The Baldwin City bear was killed for pretty much the same reason. It had wandered within 20 yards of houses.
Rock strata are described
The crust of Kansas, and many other places, contains secrets.
Described in a 38-paper centennial symposium recently released by the State Geological Survey at KU, these rock strata reveal the consistent appearance and disappearance of seas and shorelines in the last one-half billion years.
The gold-covered two volume "Symposium on Cyclic Sedimentation" commemorates 100 years of geologic research in Kansas, beginning with the date of the first Kansas Geological Survey in 1864.
Articles in the comprehensive symposium are by 45 North American geologists. The editor
is Daniel F. Merriam, chief of the Geological Survey's section on geologic research.
Miller scholarships renewed for four girls
