End of an era, Haworth to come down
Instead of the writing on the wall, students can see the writing on the sidewalk in front of Old Haworth Hall. Old Haworth is scheduled to be razed this summer after serving KU students as anything from an anatomy laboratory to an English class since it was built in 1909.
Highest court upholds car antipollution order
WASHINGTON (UPI) —The Supreme Court, over the objections of several large cities, Monday upheld a federal judge's order that automakers compete in developing and installing anti-pollution devices.
In general, the judgment bars any arrangement among the companies which might hamper development of antipollution devices. It also orders an end to a 1955 cross-licensing agreement on such devices.
In a brief order without opinion, the court upheld a "consent judgmen," worked out by the Justice Department and the automobile manufactures and decreed Oct. 28, 1969, by District Judge Jesse W. Curtis of Los Angeles.
The consent judgment in the antipollution case eliminated the need for a trial and, in the previously stated opinion of the Justice Department, "makes comprehensive relief available forthwith without the risks and delays of litigation."
Judge Curtis' decree grew out of a civil suit the department initiated Jan. 10, 1969, against the Automobile Manufacturers Association and General Motors, Ford, Chrysler and American Motors.
The complaint charged the defendants with violating the Sherman Antitrust Law by

But Senate Republican leader Hugh Scott told reporters Monday that opposition has increased slightly and now numbers more than 30 senators.
Hart, meanwhile dropped a hint of a possible filibuster as Long contended to legal scholars opposed to Carswell were the same men who supported Fortas, who resigned underfire following disclosure of his connection with a jailed financier.
Long recommends 'B or C student'
--eliminating all competition among themselves both in buying patients for and installing pollution control equipment.
WASHINGTON (UPI) — Sen. Russell B. Long, D-La., said Monday "brilliant...upside down thinkers" on the Supreme Court were destroying the nation and recommended a straightforward "B student or C student" like Judge G. Harrold Carswell.
But Sen. Phillip Hart, D-Mich., said "its the first time I've heard that argument-and I hope it's the last-that we should look for mediocrity when we staff the Supreme Court of the United States."
The clash came on the first full day of debate on the nomination of the 50-year-old U.S. Appeals Court judge from Tallahassee, Fla., nominated by President Nixon to replace Justice Abe Fortas.
Sen. Brich Bayh, D-Ind., told the Senate Carswell's indiscrebably undistinguished career as an attorney and jurist is itself an affront to the Supreme Court." Court."
"...We should look for the best, the very best," Hart said. "Even those who advance his (Carswell's) cause have implied he is something less than that."
A UPI poll indicated last week that 51 senators are committed or are leaning in favor of Carswell, while 28 are firmly or tentatively against him. Twenty were undicided.

never up." Hart said. "We were never allowed to bring it up. Now's the time to remind those who are sensitive about the length of this debate." A filibuster threat killed Fortas' nomination for chief justice in 1968.
Fortas later resigned from the court following disclosure of a financial rerelationship with a foundation headed by financier Louis Wolfson. Carswell was nominated to fill the vacancy following the Senate's rejection of Nixon's first nominee, Judge Clement F. Haynsworth.
Long jumped to his feet when Bayh began quoting legal scholars in opposition to Carswell.
"Didn't these same great legal minds . . . recommend Judge
Fortas and endorse the Miranda Decision which a majority of the Senate considered responsible for a 100 per cent increase in murder and rape?" Long demanded.
"We have enough of these upside down kind of thinkers," Long said of Supreme Court justices who participated in Miranda and other rulings broadening the rights of criminal suspects.
"Wouldn't it be better to have a B student or a C student instead of another A student? . . . That kind of reasoning and those kind of decisions are destroying our country. . . . A judge doesn't have to have all that brilliance to satisfy this senator."
Yuk owner unavailable to comment on 'hair' policy
Jess Roberts, owner of the Yuk Down, was unavailable Monday for comment on the reasons for his newly implemented policy of not admitting men with long hair.
Roberts told the Kansan Friday he would explain his policy "at the first of this week." Two
employees of the Yuk said Monday that Roberts had been out of town since Sunday morning.
The Yuk Down was boycotted Friday night by a group of 65 students after Roberts personally refused admission to several long-haired men.
