Ads for speech create sponsorship confusion
By Julie Adam Kansan staff writer
Claims on advertisements stating that the School of Journalism was cosponsoring a campus speech were erroneous, Mike Kautsch, dean of journalism, said yesterday.
Is Free Speech Threatened?" by Paul Findley, a former U.S. Congressman from Illinois, is scheduled for m. d. today in Woodruff Auditorium.
Findley's visit is being paid in full by the National Council on U.S.-Arab Relations and the Americans for Palestine Committee. But in the ads that appeared in the Kansan on Wednesday and Thursday and in the fliers distributed on campus, those two groups' names were not mentioned, and the department of political science were named as correspondents.

twe were named as cosponsor. Kautsch said that he thought the
mistake in the ads was probably just a misunderstanding because Larry Day, a professor of journalism, and another professor in the political science department both had agreed to hold a colloquium with Findley as the speaker at 3:30 p.m. today.
"There are no school funds paying for this visit at all," Kautsch said.
Although Burdett Loomis, chairman of the political science department, confirmed that his department had agreed to be listed as cosponsor on the ballot, he did not that no money has been paid by the department for the speaker's visit.
The speech, "The Making of U.S.
Foreign Policy in the Middle East
Aida Dabbas, a representative for the Americans for Palestine Committee, said that the group did not want to use its name because other groups and individuals had contributed money to bring Findley to campus. Dabbas said that her group did not want to take full credit for the visit when others not in the group had also paid for Findley's visit.
