University Daily Kansan
UP Platform
The University Party of the University of Kansas has always believed that the university should extend academic power and beyond the pragmatic process of office-seeking. In accord with this belief, the University Party is a strong advocate for a policy of emphasizing the positive contributions that may be made by the student and party to the greater University community's goals in mind, the University Party respectfully submits the following platform:
11.
The University Party, realizing that the full cooperation of the student body is essential to the success of our student government at the University of Kansas, continues to endorse the ideal of fostering a strong City Government. Independent toward the goals of a more and more effective student government.
The University Party, realizing that the apathy shown by many students to the university has a lack of knowledge on the student's right and responsibilities in the political process, as upon the inactivity of the present student administration, Politeheta left教室, dolesse the Political Education Campaign (SPEC), and its planned activities such as the Student Leadership Forum to be held on March 17, 1963, and the Student Convention to be held in the Fall of 1963.
111.
The University Party demands that further action be initiated by the All Student Council on the proposal passed in November 1962 dealing with the allocation of funds to officers of each class in order to promote an increase of class activity and spirit.
IV.
The University Party feels that the many outstanding undergraduates among Kansas are entitled to the same recognition on the national scene that is afforded to universities and colleges. We therefore submit that the ASC determine by inquiry what degree Kansas is not represented in "Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities."
The University Party, realizing that the present Big Eight Student Government association is inadequate, in affords contact with a limited number of regional colleges and universities, advocates that the ASC of the University State of Wisconsin poses a Midwest Student Government Association to encompass all student government associations in the Midwestern United States to promote a greater and more cohesive school of graduate student governments in this region.
The University Party is aware that many seniors in the University are hampered in their enrollment for classes required for graduation by the early closing of these classes during the en- period. Therefore, we believe that the All Students Council should investigate the feasibility of pre-enrollment for seniors.
VII
The University Party believes that adequate time should be provided during a debate, and that students may (1) prepare sufficiently for their final examinations, and (2) take more than two final examinations in one day. In order to remedy this situation, we adhere to the provisions of extending this period and initiate pursuant legislation.
VIII.
The students of the University of Kansas have benefited from many extra
curricular activities sponsored by the various extracurricular organizations upon this campus. The University Party would be to the benefit of these organizations and to the benefit of the student if a University Coordinating Committee were to be created to (1) coordinate the formulation of an activities calendar for concerts, lectures, performances, and publicity for these activities, and (3) promote an exchange of ideas between organizations on finance, publicity, the procuring of talent and various other aspects of college life; we advocate the creation of the above committee to be composed of the presidents of such organizations, for example, as the College Intermediary Board, University Dialysis队, Javihawk, and the many smaller organizations and publications on campus.
IX
The University Party, recognizing that a part of the inefficiency of the present committee has stems from a lack of familiarity with these committees and history of these committees on the part of prospective committee members, the committee for which he has applied, or the committee appointment be required to take an examination on the function and his role in the committee for which he has applied. University Party's proposed amendment calling for the creation of an ASC Appointments Committee to insure the appointment of qualified students to ASC committees.
X
In the Fall of 1861, Vox Popul proposed a bill for the creation of a Current office of the ASC in order to provide a forum for the national and international issues and the expression of student opinion on these issues. The bill was passed and a committee was created. Versity Party would like to ask the present student administration one simple question that never happened to the Current Events Committee of the All Student Council."
Russian Chorus To Sing Tuesday
The Yale Russian Chorus will present a concert in the style and spirit of the Russian people at 8 p.m. Tuesday in Hoch Auditorium.
The group of 30 undergraduate, graduate and faculty members at Yale, will sing acapella, Russian folk, liturgical, Cossack, and military songs.
The group has traveled extensively throughout Europe and the Soviet Union as tourists, rather than in a formal exchange. In Russia their concerts were improptupt performances in public squares and parks.
Two-thirds of the chorus is proficient in the Russian language and others are fluent in Spanish, French, Dutch, German and Swedish.

GOP Plans to Clear Post for FDR Jr.
WASHINGTON — (UPI) — Senate Republicans made it clear today that no effort would be made to block or delay the nomination of Franklin D. Roosevelt Jr. as Undersecretary of Commerce.
The 48-year-old former congressman and son of the late New Deal president appeared for the third day of nomination hearings before the Senate Commerce Committee.
Sen. Winston L. Prouty, R-Vt., had his first chance to question the nominee. Prouty was expected to inquire into some of Roosevelt's business dealings and his traffic violation record.
AN ANTICIPATED GOP attempt to discredit the nomination by citing well-known tax problems and other issues in Roosevelt's background failed to materialize either yesterday or Monday.
A GOP spokesman explained that it might be to their political advantage to let the appointment go without too much fuss on the theory that the nominee might make a good campaign target later.
Prouty has said the appointment merely was a political payoff by President Kennedy to the man who helped him win the key 1960 West Virginia primary.
THE SENATE nomination path for the 6-foot 4-inch nominee was strenued with roses during his first two days as a witness.
Democratic members praised him, while Republicans questioned him in almost friendly terms about his general views on foreign trade, tax cuts, unemployment and other broad issues.
Neither Democrats nor Republicans could find fault with the way Roosevelt handled the questions, giving the committee detailed and reasonable answers.

Georges Bidault will ask only for
temporary permission to remain in
West Germany, his aides predicted
today.
Bidault Seeks Asylum
They said Bidault fears that accepting permanent political asylum in Germany would mean the end of his year-long clandestine campaign to overthrow French President Charles de Gaulle.
The 63-year-old leader of the underground Council of National Resistance (CNR) told newsmen last night he would inform Bavarian state authorities of his decision "in a day or two."
The authorities have given Bidault the option of seeking permanent asylum in Bavaria or asking for a three-month permit. In either case Bidault would have to pledge an end to his political activities.
Bidault turned up Sunday in a dawn raid by German security agents on a villa in this Alpine resort village near Munich. He was put under German police guard and questioned extensively.
West German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer refused to consider Bidault's request for political asylum by the German Federal Government, but the Bavarian state government can grant asylum on its own authority.
Bavarian officials were prepared to grant a three-month residence permit without delay, according to informed sources. It was believed permission for permanent asylum would take longer to process.
Bidault's aides indicated he would seek temporary asylum only to give him time to arrange for entry into another country where he could continue the campaign against De Gaulle.
