KU students assault tree
Use Kansan Classified
The calm that fell over the University of Kansas campus Thursday was punctuated by the assault of a tall pine tree in front of Flint Hall by two mountain climbers who lacked a mountain.
Sam Perkins, Prairie Village junior, and Conrad Yumang, Leavenworth junior, said they climbed the gnarled pine tree because "it was there" and "to break the monotony of the curfew."
With no special equipment except a long rope, the two braved tree limbs, tree sap, a jeering crowd and one campus police officer during their ascent
and descent of the wood perennial.
The small crowd gathered below the tree surveyed the pair with some amusement. One spectator asked the pair whether they had a tree pass.
Undaunted, the two nonchalantly reached the ground and listened to the words of the waiting police officer.
During the climb, the campus police officer serenely wrote information on a standarized form. Under the title "property attacked," he wrote, "pine tree." Under the title "how attacked," was written, "climbing the tree
with a large one inch rope." The officer then asked for identification of the students and warned them not to climb trees on campus.
The pair have no future plans for other assaults, but an onlooker suggested as they walked off that they might try the campanile.
YMCA resolution calls for 10% minority voice
Journalists receive Medal of Freedom
WASHINGTON (UPI)—President Nixon presented the Medal of Freedom Wednesday night to eight distinguished journalists, one posthumously, at a glittering White House gathering.
With high praise for the winners of the nation's highest civilian award, Nixon told an East Room audience the journalists informed "millions of Americans what goes on here."
"America has been very fortunate to have people of varying views telling the story of America . . . told the story of politics," he said. The ages of those honored ran from 71 to 89, which led one of the recipients, Edward Foliard of the Washington Post, to remark "this ceremony is a triumph for maturity."
The medal for Bill Henry of the
Los Angeles Times, who died a week ago, was accepted by his grandson, Capt. Patrick McHartue, but Nixon said Henry knew a month ago he would be given the medal.
A resolution which calls for ten per cent minority group representation and ten per cent female representation on all national boards and committees was passed at a recent Young Men's Christian Association convention in Kansas City.
