Rampler Start Report Elections were held Thursday night to select the King and Queen for the formal dance Saturday.
In each dormitory two people counted half the ballots and two counted the other half. They then submitted their totals to Russell Branden, counselor supervisor. This procedure prevents anyone but Branden from knowing who the King and Queen are before the formal itself.
THE CANDIDATES for Queen are Susan Barry, Carolyn Hamblin, Demity Herber, Vatrice Goodloe, Leslie Willhite, Lisa Von Schwarzbeck, Liz Arcangeli, Emese Vathy, Adria Harrison, Janet Garrison, Ann Crawford, and Connie Bates.
Also included are Debbie Myers, Salley Imke, Debbie Baca, Sandy Yablin, Ora Shaw, Jamie Janke, Le e Stephen, Debbie Friendl, Sherry Small, Susan Boros, Linda Zeiner, Beth Nix, Marilyn Rose, Linda Wyllie, Leslie McLain, Pamm Chew, True Cooper, Linda Jones, Kristi Anderson, Pat Benjamin, Cassandra Parker, Quenana Hefner, Debbie Vance, and Betsy Brockman.
THE CANDIDATES for King
are Fritz Ledbetter, Dennis Corbett, David Cooley, Bob Wedemeyer, Ed Rathert, Dale Pahl, Kent Bailey, Leon Roberts, Frank Young, Dave Lovelace, Alvin Haywood, Walter Pitts, and Deke Wilcox, Phil Brown, and Adrian Call.
Other King candidates are Lin Diacon, Bo Kinzie, Jim Moddrell, Hubert Thomas, and Doug Ethel.
Campaigners displayed posters, gave mealtime speeches, visited cafeteria tables, and gave four-minute skits in McCollum's SE parking lot.
DURING THE formal there will be a floor show in which Darrrell Benne, choir director, will conduct the camp chorale. A ballet solo will be presented. Also featured will be the Camper's Kix Band and the Counselor's Stage Band.
The candidates for King and Queen will promenade and then Russell L. Wiley, camp director, will crown the winners and present them with gifts.
Campers should submit their guest permission slips as soon as possible. Guests are advised to stay one night only. Girls will be housed in McCollum Hall and boys in Oliver Hall.
Speech department to present plays
The dramatic interpretation workshop of the speech and debate division will be presenting cuttings from three plays in Readers Theater.
Two of the plays, under the direction of Jack Garrison, are entitled, "America Hurrah," and "Telemeus Clay." The plays being presented, will not be acted,
but merely interpreted with scritts.
The third play, "John Brown's Body" by Steven Vincent Benet, is being presented under the direction of Jack Wright.
The three plays will be presented at 7 p.m. in Strong Auditorium on July 24. They will be open to the public.
Dietician serves 'good food'in JRP
By HOWARD STEPHAN Kamper Staff Reporter
Mrs. Laura Sample, head dietitian at Joseph R. Pearson Hall, said the food served there is "good food."
Mrs. Sample received her education at Kansas State University in Manhattan. Her background includes courses in dietetics and nutrition.
"For an average lunch of roast beef needed to feed the 160 persons in Pearson Hall we use between 80 and 100 pounds of roast beef, 100 pounds of potatoes, and 30 pounds of vegetables." Mrs. Sample said.
"ALL THE MEAT served at JRP is choice grade, and none of the food is government surplus," she said. "We get all our food from Swifts and Armours or from special vendors."
Mrs. Sample commented on the salt peter issue, a rumor convicts the cook of inserting this chemical into the food, by saying there is none. In fact the tale about salt peter is an old old wives tale. Asked if there was anything being placed in food that had the opposite effect on people, Mrs. Sample said, "There are no preservatives of any kind in this food."
Another first for Kansan
The Kansan, which made the initial step to offset printing in April has taken another step toward the full cold-type process today.
The editorial page of the Summer Session Kansan was set on new IBM equipment which arrived last week, instead of on the traditional linetypes.
MRS. SAMPLE said, "I have been at the University of Kansas for nine years, and I have loved every minute of it." During the regular school year Mrs. Sample is the head dietitian at the athletic table.
"The hardest but most enjoyable part of my job." Mrs. Sample said, "is to keep everyone happy." When asked what one of her most discouraging moments was, Mrs. Sample said, "I thought I would have to cook the meal myself because my morning cook was ill."
The camp provides the dormitory department with $1.20 per camper each day with which to feed campers.
Members of the German camp will present "Die Physiker," a German play by Durrenmatt, the night of July 25 or 26. The performance will be in Swarthout Recital Hall.
Germans plan plays
This is the second play the German students have presented. The first was "Das Verhor" by Bert Brecht.
PARTICIPANTS in the production are Karen Doerner, Gail Altschwager, Priscilla Arsove, Gary Ash, Devid Devins, Garnet Herring, Eileen Meoni, Gary Mee, Nanci Randolph, Jo Scheibe, David Shumaker and Joan Torkelson.
All campers are invited to attend the play, which will be spoken in German.
