Candidates are: Carol Manley, Shawnee Mission freshman; Mary Patrick, Liberal freshman; Evelyn Millentree, Excelsior Springs, Mo., freshman; Cheryl Mehan, Leawood sophomore; Shary Stafford, Belleville junior, and Kathryn Bricker, Bonner Springs sophomore.
ASC takes steps to political death
What may be the last All-Student Council (ASC) meeting will be 7:15 p.m. today in the Kansas Union Centennial Room, Carol Leek, Fort Scott junior and ASC secretary said.
Two resolutions will be discussed, including a proposal by Bill Hansen, Lawrence graduate student, that would boycott the sale of grapes by University services, particularly by dormitory cafeterias. The boycott is probably intended to be in sympathy with the strike of California grape pickers, Miss Leek said.
Other ASC business will include preparation for the April 23-24 Student Senate, and class officer election.
"One more ASC meeting may take place before the election. But this is probably the last one," she said.
China, Vietnam are speech topics
A specialist in Chinese Communist party history will lecture at 8 p.m. today in the Kansas Union Jayhawk Room announced the East Asian Studies committee.
The lecturer, Mark Seldon, is a professor of history at Washington University in St. Louis and will speak on "People's War and the Transformation of Peasant Society: China and Vietnam."

Clarence Reynolds, Kansas City freshman and president of the Black Student Union (BSU) announced yesterday the BSU cheering squad has not been and will not be dissolved.
BSU squad will remain in operation
"Those positions vacated by the girls who are now members of the University pom-pon squad have been refilled by girls from our alternate cheering squad," Reynolds said.
Reading from a prepared statement, Reynolds said, "The appearance of our squad is debatable depending upon the spirit, determination and morale instilled in the black athletes by the University pom-pon squad. However, there will be a black group within the black section to supplement our black cheering squad, their appearance isn't debatable."
