PIGGY-BACK RIDE TO CLASS
This young lady was luckier than KU students—she didn't need a traffic and security clearance to ride across campus; just her daddy's shoulders.

Abrams-
Continued from page 1 investigates. Abrams said he feels his academic freedom was violated when Miss Whitney told him how to teach a lettering course.
Abrams was not allowed to hear the reasons for his dismissal. He feels he should have been given the reasons.
"If they (Gorton and Miss Whitney) had to confront the thing, then the truth would come out, and that's all I'm after," Abrams said.
Abrams said there are several things wrong with the department of design. "It's still in the 1930's" in its curriculum, he said.
Abrams worked in the business field with an advertising firm before coming to KU. He said the commercial art curriculum does not offer the student what he needs to succeed when he leaves college. There are no photography, film or typography courses in the commercial art curriculum. "They are all a must," Abrams said.
When Abrams came to KU, he instituted a photography course. He began by teaching the basic techniques of making pictures, but Miss Whitney disapproved of his teaching methods, he said.
"She wanted them (the students) to produce commercials. She didn't like the way I was teaching it, but could offer no suggestions." Abrams said.
There will be a new chairman of the design department next fall and maybe things will be different, Abrams said.
KU receives $200,000
A gift of approximately $200,000 from the estate of Arthur Nelson Reece of Kansas City, Mo., has been received by KU, Irvin E. Youngberg, executive secretary of the KU Endowment Association, said today.
By the terms of his will, one-half of the estate will be used for scholarships for needy and worthy students, and one-half will be used at the Medical Center in Kansas City for cancer research.
The first Arthur Nelson Reece scholarship will be awarded in the 1968-69 academic year, Youngberg said.

ON ESCALATION. (Revised Edition)
Herman Kahn. In one of the most widely discussed and influential books of recent years, Herman Kahn probes the dynamics of escalation and demonstrates how the intensification of conflict can be depicted by means of a definite escalation ladder, which leads to all-out war. Thermonuclear annihilation, says the author, is unlikely to come through accident; but nations may elect to climb the ladder to extinction.
