Social welfare group studies mental illness
Consultation as a mental health service will be the subject of an institute for social workers given in Wichita July 14-15 by the University of Kansas School of Social Welfare, Dean Arthur J. Katz said today.
Larry R. Brown and John C. Baird of KU will lead the program at the Hotel Broadview.
Because of the frequency of mental illness—a high level study reported one out of every four persons in the United States is mentally ill—the supply of social workers, psychologists and psychiatrists is far short of the need, Brown said.
Hence social workers must rely on consultation to help many emotionally disturbed persons. By giving sound advice to ministers, lawyers, family doctors, and school personnel, the social worker can indirectly aid the mentally ill who are not getting clinical help, Brown explained.
The Wichita institute will attempt to pinpoint the role of the social worker-consultant as a mental health servant. Participants also will consider the modes of consultation by analyzing case histories.

Botstein, appointed new college president
NEW YORK UPI)—Leon Botstein, a mop headed 23-year-old just a year out of college will become the president of Franconia College in New Hampshire Aug. 1, making him the youngest college head in the nation.
The appointment was announced Thursday by Joseph Monserrat, president of the New York City board of education. Botstein has been aide to the board's president since obtaining his master's degree from Harvard last year. He is currently studying toward a doctorate.
"With this appointment the greatest cop-out of our times, the generation gap, will be exploded," Monserrat said.
Franconia is a private co-
educational school located near Laconia, N.H., which has experimented in giving students significant voice in policy making. It has 250 students. Botstein also will teach at the college.
Botstein was born in Zurich, Switzerland, where his parents had fled from Poland. He received his bachelor's degree from the University of Chicago in 1967.
He was appointed a teaching fellow at Harvard after receiving his master's, and also taught Western civilization at Boston University. His parents are doctors and are on the staff of Albert Einstein Medical College.
"My own parents were incredulous when they heard of the appointment," Botstein said.
