College Bowl deadline reset
Sharp minds of the university will fight it out verbally for College Bowl trophies between February 26 and March 26 in the Kansas Union. The matches, lasting 30 minutes, will take place between 2 and 4:30 p.m. in the Kansas Union.
Steve Davis, Lyons sophomore and arrangements chairman of the college bowl committee, said all living groups have been asked to participate. Twenty teams have applied so far, but many more are expected. The deadline has been extended to Thursday because of a rush of late applicants.
LIVING GROUPS will be represented by teams of four (plus two alternates), one team from small halls and Greek houses and two from the large residence halls.
Teams will be up against tough competition from last year's winner, Stephenson Hall, which has won four out of the five College Bowls. JRP won the fifth time.
Davis says the subject matter of questions will be "as heterogenous a mixture as possible, so girls will not be eliminated on a series of science questions."
Two trophies will be awarded: one overall and one women's. Winners will represent KU in the Big Eight College Bowl next spring. Rules and procedures will be similar to those of the General Electric College Bowl and questions will be of the same caliber as last year.
White Foundation officers installed

THIS YEAR $400 is being given to the Mid-western Music Camp to be held this summer at KU. The foundation also gave $250 to help develop high school journalism.
Each year it presents an award for an outstanding editorial in the University Daily Kansan.
In addition, the foundation prints speeches and sends them throughout the country.
The foundation now is planning a "Seminar on the Mass Media in a Free Society" to be held next year. The seminar is in the observance of the William Allen White Centenary. A special campaign to raise money to acquire top speakers for the seminar is the current project of the foundation.
