Camp fund is up Ellsworth boosts
Ellsworth Hall is presenting a challenge to the University's other residence halls to match or exceed their $1,000 contribution to the Lawrence Day Camp said Ernest Bauer, Clay Center sophomore and president of Ellsworth Hall.
In presenting the challenge, Bauer said that while he "wouldn't swear on a stack of Bibles that they have a lot of money, I'm pretty sure most of them do."
The contribution made by the residents of Ellsworth Hall has nearly doubled the amount of money collected by the two-week-old student fund drive.
Small amounts have been

trickling in from other sources to make a total amount of $2095.98, which is only a small portion of the $15,000 student goal—one dollar for every KU student.
The floor presidents called special floor meetings to present the idea to the men, who responded "nearly unanimously in favor of it," he said.
Mehmet Gurkaynak, Biga, Turkey, graduate student, and treasurer of the student fund drive also pleaded Thursday night for more response from KU students.
"The professors' fund drive has already turned in more money than they had originally pledged, and the downtown campaign has gotten good results. Why don't the students do something?" he asked.
The 10-week summer day camp will provide jobs for more than 60 teenagers from low-income families in North and East Lawrence, and full-day care for more than 200 children from these families.

Semester change studied by Council
Do students want to start school in August and end the first semester before Christmas?
That's what the All-Student Council (ASC) is trying to determine before submitting recommendations for the 1969-70 KU school calendar for approval by the University Senate.
The calendar is made two years ahead of time.
Bob Stoddard, Shawnee Mission sophomore and chairman of the ASC calendar committee, said "something has to be done now" to change the system or it will continue in its present form—with finals about three weeks after Christmas vacation.
Stoddard said the ASC representatives are taking a poll this week on the opinions of the students in their districts before making a decision.
Under the proposed change, classes would begin in late August instead of the middle of September and would run until Christmas. Students would then have about a month of vacation before second semester started. Second semester classes would also begin earlier and would end about May 15, Stoddard said.
