All interested people are invited to come.
Miwa, who has his Ph.D. from Princeton and is a professor of Modern Japanese History at Sophia University in Tokyo, has been visiting professor of Japanese history at the Centro de Estudios Orientales of the Colegio de Mexico this year.

Poll workers needed in student elections
Poll workers are needed for the Student Senate elections to be held this week.
The polls will be set up Tuesday and Wednesday in the Kansas Union, Strong Hall and Murphy Hall. They will be open from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Polls also will be open in Gertrude Sellards Pearson Hall, Oliver Hall and Ellsworth Hall from 7 p.m. until 10 p.m. Tuesday night only.
"We desperately need poll workers," said Kathy Newcomer,
Omaha junior and co-chairman of the elections committee. "Anyone interested in helping at the polls should sign lists distributed in the dorms, frats, sororities and scholarship halls." She said people could also sign up by calling either 843-5600 or 843-6455.
Miss Newcomer and David R. Miller, Hays senior and co-chairman of the elections committee, plan to collect the lists tonight and make a master list.
Bircher to lecture tonight
Lt. Col. Jack Mohr, retired U.S.
Army colonel and a member of
the John Birch Society, will
speak about sex education in the
schools, sensitivity training and
Vietnam, at 7:30 pm. today in
Woodruff Auditorium in the
Kansas Union.
Mohr was a prisoner of the North Korean Communists even before the outbreak of that war.
During the Korean war, the term "brainwashing" was added to our language. "Brainwashing."
as Major Mayer has said, is "a calculated attempt to distort men's convictions and their principles . . . and to supply them with a mass of specific information."
Colonel Mohr describes the sex education programs currently being promoted in the public schools as "merely one form of sensitivity training, which itself is an adaptation of the brainwashing—or mind control—techniques."
