Black athletes
(Continued from page 1)
"I think the Sports Illustrated article brought our team together," he says. "It helped them learn to communicate with one another."
Last year's boycott has had little effect on this year's recruiting, black football players believe. If anything, some say, it added to KU's appeal for potential Negro recruits.
Recruiting not hurt
"It showed (recruits) that at least the black brothers here are saying what they think," one player commented.
On another issue—providing a
Palmerlee post filled
Elmo G. Lindquist, associate professor of mechanical engineering, has been named to replace Albert S. Palmerlee as placement director for the School of Engineering.
Palmerlee died last Friday of an apparent heart attack. Dean William P. Smith announced the replacement Friday.
Lecturer is director
John V. Bergen, lecturer in pharmacy, has been named associate director of the National Formulary by the American Pharmaceutical Association board of trustees.

quality education for varsity athletes—most black players feel that KU is making genuine attempts to help its players, both black and white.

"KU is doing a better job of providing a good education than most schools," says Shanklin. "I think our athletic program is up to par with any athletic program I know of—in any conference."
McDaniel voices a similar opinion. KU's tutoring program, he feels, helps athletes benefit fully from their college experience.
Problems remain, of course. The strenuous routine of daily practices saps player energy which could otherwise be applied to studies. But occasional cheering moves, such as the recent addition of former KU player Ben Olison, a Negro, to the football coaching staff, serve to inform black athletes that their situation at KU is recognized.
The relatively good black-white relations which KU's athletic department enjoys today cannot however, be taken for granted. As realists recognize it is possible that problems concerning KU's black athletes will rise again.
At the same time, however, both blacks and whites agree, there is cause for hope and pride that KU's athletic department is attempting to face its aspect of The Problem squarely.

Education dean announced later
The new Dean of the School of Education, who will succeed Kenneth Anderson, will not be announced for at least a week, Francis Heller, KU dean of faculties, said yesterday.
Dean Heller was the chairman of the committee that selected three candidates for the position and submitted them to Chancellor W. Clarke Wescoe for his selection.
"More than 60 persons were nominated for the position," Dean Heller said.
The committee was composed of 10 faculty members plus four students from the School of Education. Eight persons were interviewed before the selection was narrowed to three.
The Kansas Board of Regents must approve the chancellor's selection.
