Sam F. Anderson
Anderson Gets Fink Citation
Sam F. Anderson, assistant professor of Slavic languages and literatures, is the 1964 recipient of the H. Bernerd Fink Award for Excellence in Classroom Teaching at KU.
Announcement of the $1,000 cash award, provided annually by Mr. Fink, a KU alumnus and president of the C-G-F Grain Co. in Topeka, was made by Chancellor W. Clarke Wescoe at the Alumni-Commencement supper.
Prof. Anderson was en route to Jarvenpaa, Finland, where he will direct the second annual Universities of Kansas and Colorado cooperative 10-week summer institute in Russian language. The intensive language study for 40 students in that Russian-speaking village will be capped by a 2-week study tour in the Soviet Union.
Prof. Anderson was chosen by a secret committee of the KU staff from nominations by faculty and students. The Fink award was made solely on the basis of his dedicated and effective service to students.
A native of Chanute, Prof. Anderson won a Summerfield scholarship to KU, earning the A.B. degree in 1938. The next year he was KU's exchange scholar to Germany. He received the M.A. degree in 1940 from Harvard University.
He became an instructor in German here in 1943. When Russian language instruction was added in the post-war years, he was for several years the only teacher in that area.
He has made numerous summer trips to Russia since that government began to admit tourists in 1956. His knowledge of the language has enabled him to travel in many places and establish relationships with the Russian people not open to the ordinary traveler. He uses materials and pictures from those tours in his classroom teaching.
Central American Meeting Scheduled
A meeting of the Commission for General Studies of the Council of Central American Universities will be held here June 8-14.
Fifteen council officials and faculty members of the Universities of Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, Salvador and Guatemala will meet to discuss pre-professional programs and basic arts and sciences disciplines.
Dean George R. Waggoner of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences will be in charge of the meeting. Carlos Caamano, former dean of Arts and Sciences at the University of Costa Rica and former liaison officer for the KU-Costa Rica junior year exchange program, now assistant to the general secretary of the Council of Central American Universities in charge of general studies, helped to plan the conference.
Last Class at 'Wichita'
WICHITA—(UPI)—The University of Wichita last night graduated its last class under that name.
It bestowed degrees on 567 seniors who were the last to graduate from the university in its present status. The class of 1965 will be graduated from Wichita State University.
500-Student Halls Assured
Two 500 student residence halls will be completed by the fall of 1966 and the fall of 1967 at the University of Kansas as the result of actions taken at the April and May meetings of the Board of Regents.
The Regents approved in April the allocation of $660,000 in dormitory building fund money toward total costs of the two halls estimated at $4,540,000, including furnishings and equipment.
The board now has authorized KU officials to negotiate loans for the remainder from the Federal Housing and Home Finance Agency.
The two halls will be on the south edge of the campus west of the 19th Street-Naismith Road intersection. A 1,000-student residence hall now is under construction, with a completion date of September 1965.
Financing of the two halls will mark the first KU use of systems financing. This involves pledging the net earnings of four existing residence halls, of the two now authorized, and of 20 apartment buildings for married students toward retirement of the bonds.
This pooling of earnings will permit the building of residence halls with a smaller proportion of state dormitory tax funds and may result in the purchase of some of the bonds by private investors at lower rates than the federal agency will guarantee.

NEW YORK — (UPI) — Federal, state and city tax collectors received more than $4 million in revenue from the 20 major league baseball clubs for the 1962 season.
