Luther expert will talk here
Jaroslav Pelikan, Martin Luther scholar and author of "The Riddle of Roman Catholicism," will give the next Humanities Series lecture at 8 p.m., Tuesday, Feb.21, in the University Theatre.
The holder of the Titus Street professorship in ecclesiastical history at Yale University will speak on "The Irony of the Reformation." Lecture-goers may meet him at a Faculty Club informal reception after the lecture.
Besides editing and translating 16 volumes of "Luther's Works," American edition, Pelikan has published "From Luther to Kierkegaard," "Luther the Expositor," and eight other books.
AT 3:30 P.M., Monday, Feb. 20, he will speak at a coffee-forum in the Kansas Union Forum Room, sponsored by Student Union Activities (SUA). His lecture and the discussion afterward will be on "Vatican Council II and the Prospects for Ecumenism."
Monday evening, after a 6:15 p.m. dinner in the Kansas Union English Room arranged by a Lutheran student group, Dr. Pelikan will speak on "Changing Pictures of Luther" at the University Lutheran Church, 15th and Iowa Streets. The lecture is open to the public.
At a luncheon Tuesday in the Kansas Union sponsored by the School of Religion, Pelikan will speak and lead a discussion. During his KU visit, he will also speak to several classes.
THE YALE LUTHER scholar's visit comes during the 450th anniversary of Martin Luther's posting of the 95 Theses, a dramatic public act which stipulated his criticisms of the established Church and which precipitated a series of actions that led to the Protestant schism with the Roman Church.
Pelikan joined the Yale faculty in 1962 after 10 years on the University of Chicago faculty. He holds six honorary degrees and three major honors awards. In 1946 he was ordained a minister in the Lutheran Church. He received the Bachelor of Divinity degree in 194 at Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, and the Ph.D. from the University of Chicago the same year. He taught at Valparaiso University, Indiana, and at Concordia Seminary. He was born in 1923 in Akron, Ohio.

A similar presentation will be made at Washburn University, in Topeka on Friday.

Military duty can be met by Navy ROTC service
Editor's Note—This is the first of a series of three articles intended to familiarize students with opportunities to be found in either the Army, Navy, or Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) programs available at KU.
"Military service . . . who, me?"
Most male students are asking themselves how they intend to fulfill their military obligation, and the answer may possibly be found in ROTC.
Enrollment in the Naval ROTC leads to a commission in either the U.S. Navy or the Marine Corps.
NROTC OFFERS three basic programs: The four year Regular program, in which all students are awarded four year scholarships based on competitive national examinations given to high school seniors; the four year Contract Program, in which all students complete a four year syllabus in Naval Science without scholarship aid; and a two year Contract Program in which a student enters in his junior year in college, without scholarship aid.
Capt. Robert H. Eslinger Jr., USN, and commanding officer of the NROTC unit at KU, said that students wishing to apply for this program may request further information and applications at the NROTC office, 115 Military Science Building. The deadline for acceptance of applications is March 15.
The two year Contract Program is the one for which students now enrolled at KU would be eligible.
To qualify for admittance, students must pass a physical examination and the Reserve Officer Aptitude Test.

Upon enrollment, the student is required to attend the six week Naval Science Institute during the summer prior to his junior year. Here, he attends daily classes and drill sessions at one of four college campuses in the U.S. in preparation for his entrance to the midshipman battalion upon his return to KU.
The two year Contract Program consists of five options: Surface, for eventually commissioning as a line officer in the fleet; Aviation; Marine Corps; Technical Supply; and Science and Engineering.
Travel expenses are paid to and from the institute and the student receives pay at the rate of $87.90 per month during the training period.
FULL COLLEGE credit is awarded for courses taken during this time. KU will award a total of nine hours credit for the courses completed in Naval Orientation, Sea Power, and Naval Weapons.
At the beginning of the junior year, two year Contract midshipmen are inducted into the Naval Reserve and begin drawing salary at the rate of $40 per month, which is tax free.
During the summer between their junior and senior years, all NROTC midshipmen are required to embark on a summer training cruise, in which they will be as closely associated with their duty option as possible.
Upon graduation, two year Contract midshipmen will be commissioned at the rank of Ensign into the Naval Reserve, and will serve a minimum of three years active duty.
