Camp Notes
Engineering

Merrit W. Buffon, executive director of the State Labor Department employment security division, will speak on the Manpower Development and Training Act.
Alfred E. Poe, U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare regional representative, will speak on "Reasons for Federal Welfare Proposals." Poe is with the Bureau of Family Service in Kansas City, Mo.
Two other speakers and their subjects are Thaine D. McCormick, director and executive officer, State Board for Vocational Education: "Vocational Education and the Individual," and James H. Morrison, training program planner, Western Auto, Kansas City, Mo.: "New Perspective in Administration."

Research Grant To Prof. Huyser
Earl S. Huyser, associate professor of chemistry at KU, has received a $14,000 renewal grant to continue studies on "Reactions of Free Radicals in Solution."
The two-year grant is provided by the Petroleum Research Fund of the American Chemical Society. The study is beginning its third year.
Free radicals are reactive chemical species that participate in a number of organic reactions. In this study Prof. Huyser is investigating certain phases of free radical addition reactions and factors influencing the rate of addition of free radicals to unsaturated compounds.
Prof. Huyser, a specialist in organic reactions, has done extensive research with free radicals under several other grants. He is assisted in the PRF grant by J. Dale Tallaferre, Rosendale, Mo., graduate student.
But Not Fire Hydrants
LANCASTER, Pa. — (UPI) — Lawns, hedges and trees on private property are out of bounds to dogs here even if they are on leashes because of complaints of canine bad manners.
The city council acting at the request of Warden Winfield Noden changed an ordinance banning even leashed dogs from the greenery unless they have a property owner's consent.

6 Days a Week
The intent of the six weeks at the camp is to enable prospective engineers to receive a view of as many different fields of engineering as possible. Some of the subjects covered range from the more standard civil and electrical engineering to the more recently developed fields of computer, calculators and nuclear engineering.
Comprising about one-fifth of the Midwestern Music and Art Camp are the 200 art campers ranging in age from 12 to 18. The art group is the second largest in the camp.
The art campers are offered a wide selection of courses taught by many well qualified KU instructors. The curriculum consists of jewelry, sculpture, oil painting, watercolor, design and color cartooning, pencil drawing, fashion illustration, pen and ink drawing, advertising design, design techniques, figure sketch, nature drawing, lettering, design in three dimensions and interior design.
The comprehensive lecture and laboratory sessions are presented by professors of the University. These lectures and laboratories are supplemented by weekly field trips to large engineering installations located in this area.
With the age of the engineer permanently here, the Engineering Division of the camp faces a bright future of enjoyment and service.
Art
By Sara Lynn Sherrill and Janie Oakes
This variety gives the interested student a chance to become more aware of the many phases of art and to expand his interests. It helps him to decide what field in art he might wish to follow later.

World Experts to Gather At KU for Soviet Study
The first major conference of the world's top authorities on Soviet agriculture will be at KU Sept. 20-22.
Called by the KU Slavic and Soviet Area Studies program and the International Affairs committee, the meeting will focus on what has been regarded as the major problem area in the Soviet economy. Among the participants will be key national and international figures in the area from institutions of higher learning and from government.
These include Naum Jasny, author of an 837-page, exhaustive study of the economics of Soviet agriculture, now retired from Stanford University's Food Research Institute; Lazar Vulin, U.S. Department of Agriculture specialist on Soviet agriculture, and Alec Nove, London School of Economics and Political Science.
Eisenhower To Tour Europe, July-August
Eisenhower, who will be accompanied by his wife, Mamie, and their two eldest grandchildren, Dwight David and Barbara Ann, will address the World Conference of Teaching Professions in Stockholm July 31.
GETTYSBUGR, Pa. — (UPI)
Former President Dwight D. Eisenhower will leave July 19th on a 44-day tour to at least six European cities, his office has announced.
They will sail from New York on the SS France.
Accompanying the Eisenhowers will be Freeman Gosden of Amos n' Andy fame, his wife and their son. Craig Leigh.
Justice Goes to Trial
LONDON — (UPI) — Jean Justice, 31 admitted yesterday that he denounced robes and posed as a barrister to enter the old Bailey courtroom to get a good seat for a spy trial.
Prof. Nove, considered one of the Western world's leading students of Soviet economics, will remain on the KU campus in the fall semester as Rose Morgan visiting professor of economics.
Roy D. Laird, associate professor of political science who specializes in the political aspects of Soviet agriculture, will direct the conference.
IT IS BEING FINANCED by the KU Slavic and Soviet Area program and the International Affairs Committee, with assistance from the Russian Studies program of the University of Illinois and the American Society of Agronomists.
Prof. Laird said the participants will seek "a consensus as to the present and future health of the Soviet system in light of the problem of agricultural production and the closely related problems of the peasant.
"The future advance of the Soviet economy and polity depends to a very large degree upon whether or not some significant advances can be made in this area," he explained. "Agriculture as a major problem seems to be the common denominator of the whole communist world," he said.
"The seriousness of the problem from the productivity side was shown in Khrushchev's recent announcement that key livestock products are to increase in prices 30 per cent," he said.
Prof. Laird said although the study of Soviet agriculture has distinguished scholars in it, the field nevertheless has been called one of the most neglected areas of Soviet study in relation to its significance. Most of the leading students of Soviet agriculture in the United States and from abroad will be gathered at the KU conference, he said.
