Fulbright applications due tomorrow
Applications for four Fulbright Scholarships to Japan in 1969-70 must be returned by tomorrow, Thomas R. Smith, associate dean of faculties for international programs said last week.
Smith said no knowledge of Japanese was necessary to apply for these scholarships. The scholarships are teaching assistantships for Americans to work with Japanese teachers of English in the classroom, he said. Single men who want to apply for the scholarships must have a B.A. degree and some teaching experience to qualify for the program which lasts 10 to 12 months.

Splish'n An Splash'n For Something To Do This Weekend?
Well don't get all excited and panic when Friday night rolls around and you're down in a river of trouble and about to drown. Simply let the Spring Fling Party at the National Guard Armory be your life saver.
Sail through a delightful evening with the help of an unlimited supply of thirst quenching beverages. (Milk and cookies will be provided for those who do not indulge). None other than THE FABULOUS FLIPPERS, who's achievement in the entertainment world speak for themselves, will be providing the soulful sounds from 8-12. And as an added touch of perfection to the evening will be the crowning of a Spring Fling Queen.
Unfortunately there will be an air of sadness associated with the entire affair. Spring Fling officials regretfully announced today that J. Fred Muggs and his All-Stars will not be able to appear as originally hoped. The Moose Breath, Wyo., Boys Club refused to let the group out of their three week contract. Needless to say, J. Freddy was terribly upset and his voice choked with emotion as he tearfully told Spring Fling big wigs the news. Ace Johnson, who caters all the giant parties, expressed a burning desire to still get the group, either for a Homecoming concert or class party next year. Johnson was further quoted as saying, "Talent like J. Fred Muggs must be seen and heard by KU students!"
Tickets for this Spring Spectacular can be purchased from resident hall coordinators for $1.50. If you can't assert enough energy to buy tickets in advance, they will be available at the door for $2.00, cash, check or money order. And don't forget that this is the only party of the year in which Independents can show their tremendous strength and unity. So this Friday night make the scene at the Spring Fling and shake the old National Guard Armory to its foundation.
P.S.
Bring your own "thirst quenching beverage containers." But that doesn't apply to the smartie who over-did it at the Fresh.-Soph. Class Party. He actually attempted to drive a pick up truck, loaded with a water tank, through the door of the armory and crash the brew lines. And then had the nerve to try and hook up a hose from the tank to the kegs. As you can imagine this didn't go over too big with other party participants. Relatives of the deceased can claim his truck, water tank and remains at the Armory between 9 a.m.-5 p.m. daily.
