Regent appointment made
Henry Bubb, Topeka financier, had his reappointment to the Board of Regents confirmed by the Kansas Senate Monday. The Senate also confirmed three other appointees of Gov. Robert Docking for positions on the Regents
Besides Bubb, those formally
confirmed to the Regents were Elmer Jackson, Kansas City, Kan., William Danenbarger, Concordia, and Paul R. Wunsch, Kingman.
The Senate Education Committee went into a closed session to vote on the four appointees last week. After the session, Sen. Joseph Harder, R-Mountridge and
committee chairman, said the vote was unanimous to recommend Senate approval on all of the Docking appointees except Jackson. Jackson, first Negro appointee to the board, drew one dissenting vote.
The Senate approved the appointment with a 37-0 vote of the 40 man body.
Indian excavation finds projectiles
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (UPI)—A sociology professor and 25 students and naturalists have uncovered the site of a nomadic Indian culture near the Connecticut River Valley which may date back to 1300 B.C.
Prof. Robert E. Lowie, assistant professor of sociology at the American International College who lead the expedition, said: "Vague rumors about the site have been floating around for years." He and his associates turned those rumors into facts when they started to survey and excavate the site.
"Actually there are two sites," said Lowrie. "On the first site we found very little and eventually abandoned it. A quarter-mile away from the first one we began intensive work." Most of the artifacts were found at the second site.
Pottery and tool fragments were found along with traces of fire pits and remnants of hut-type dwellings.
The work was done by volunteers who dug about three days a week. Some of the objects were found as close as two inches below the ground other as deep as 15 inches.
"The indians who lived here probably were a cultural type whose existence dates from 1300 to 1000 B.C. exact dates have not been determined."
The inhabitants did not use bows and arrows but pointed projectiles made of stone, Lowrie said.
The site is 200 feet deep and has a 150-foot frontage. Lowrie expects to continue the work over the next two years.
Police quell racial disturbance
"It is not known whether they were planters. If they were, they probably did their planting down the river since the soil from the excavated area is of poor planting quality," Lowrie said.
Officers confiscated a quantity of cherry bombs, three steel pipes of varying length and pellets for air pistols.
The disturbance was quelled quickly after seven officers entered the building while others stood watch outside and a helicopter overhead maintained surveillance.
School authorities using the public address system instructed all students either to return to their classes or leave the building and go home. Most left, police said.

Betting bill lobbying under investigation
TOPEKA (UPI) — Gov. Robert B. Docking and legislative leaders Wednesday night announced an investigation into "serious accusations and innuendoes" raised about lobbying activities involving the pari-mutuel betting bill.
The governor's advisory committee on governmental ethics will make the investigation. Former U.S. Sen. Frank Carlson is chairman of the panel which includes several former Kansas governors.
The statement was issued after the governor met with several legislators to discuss news accounts and rumors surrounding the bill.
It said "serious accusations" have been raised concerning the bill. "The people's trust and confidence in their government and their elected officials should be maintained. The people have a right to know all facts involved in this controversy."
"The necessary legislation is being prepared which will give the committee legal powers necessary to gather testimony and records," it said.
The statement also said the committee will be given authority to hire an investigator.
Rumors allege $30,000 was delivered to a lobbyist for the bill and invitations extended to some state legislators by a senator supporting the bill to make a trip to South Africa.

TOWN CRIER
The Captain's Table Rejected This One!
NOT WANTED:
George is a tough, dirty, obstreperous, old pig. He's real groovy . . .
but just too fat and tuff. As you can see, George smokes too. You've
heard of smoked ham. (Bad pun!)
Ace Johnson, the owner of the Captain's Table, flatly refuses to serve his customers anything but the best dinners. That means he buys only the best steaks and ham. Of course that rules out George.
George is a real ham at parties and loves to groove to the latest blues of Janis Joplin. He's a right-type-of-guy but a wrong-type-of-ham.
Dinner at the Captain's Table is between 8: P.M. and 2:30 A.M. If you order Baked Ham, rest assured, its not George you are eating. You might like to try one of the Captain's Table steaks. They weren't George's either.
