Model UN Spots Are Still Vacant
Student delegations are slowly filling each of the eight political blocs with registration for the KU Model United Nations in its final day.
The KU-Y Office said late yesterday afternoon thad been signed for, with 42 re- maining.
The KU-Y hoped that the deficit would be made up today, and in the subsequent late signings early next week before the general introductory meeting Thursday night.
According to Mary Kay Cordill, Kansas City sophomore, publicity chairman of the KU Model U.N., only one freshman delegation and very few independent representatives have registered thus far.
"WE WOULD definitely like to have more independent groups participate in the Model U.N," Miss Cordill said. "Any four-member groups are welcome to register."
According to KU-Y tabulations, the Sino-Soviet bloc had only one vacancy left late yesterday — the Mongolian People's Republic. This bloc is the only major power whose delegations are nearly complete.
The African bloc, largest of the eight areas, has 12 out of 19 nations signed for, while the Western bloc lacks nine delegations and the Latin bloc eight.
Of the minor powers, the Republic of Yemen remains to be taken in the Arab blooc and two vacancies are left
Party finances, membership and committee applications were discussed last night at the University Party meeting.
UP Discusses Lack of Funds
JIM JACKSON, KANSAS City senior and UP membership committee chairman, asked representatives to begin checking to see how many membership cards they will need.
"There's no reason for this deficit," party co-chairman Bob Stewart, Bartlesville, Okla., sophomore, commented after the meeting. Stewart said he thought procrastination rather than a lack of funds was the cause for the deficit.
Party treasurer Max Logan, Holiday junior, announced the party had a current deficit of $17.62. Logan said the party was as much as 5 months behind in payment of some bills. He urged party representatives to see that their living groups pay this semester's dues promptly.
Stewart handed out application blanks for committee appointments. He briefly mentioned the functions of each committee, elaborating only on the recently formed Student Political Education committee.
"The purpose of this committee," he said, "is to inform more students about campus politics, and to bring more students into campus policies."
Stewart asked the representatives to begin selecting prospective candidates for the Spring elections.
Frosh Owns Orbit Mark
Stewart said the next general meeting would be held in about two weeks.
BERKELEY, Calif. — (UPI) — Laundronaut Lawrence E. Scanlan today claimed a record of 1,151 revolutions in orbit — in a clothes dryer.
The University of Californi freshman said his big spin took 28 minutes in a dryer left partly open to keep down the heat.

Result: New family of lightweight powerplants . . . including a new V-8 that weighs 110 pounds less than the comparable V-8 it replaces
in our search to provide good performance with lighter powerplants, Ford Motor Company engineers and foundrymen have pioneered new techniques that now let us cast our engine blocks with such precision that much lighter engines are made possible.
New materials used to make cores and molds and new casting methods enable us to make engine parts with walls as thick as necessary-but no thicker. This eliminates weight of extra material which must be used to provide adequate strength with less precise casting methods.
Reducing engine weight through precision casting means more performance per pound-and since.
lighter engines mean overall car weight can be reduced, better fuel economy results.
Another assignment completed-another Ford First and one more example of how Ford Motor Company continues to provide engineering leadership for the American Road.
