Which means, as every baseball fan knows, a lot more than backstopping the pitcher. For nearly seventy years, we ' ve played the game like that for publications, advertisers, manufacturers.

Hail To Thee, Our Alma Voter FRASER HALL 9 The Story of a University THE UNIVERSITY of Kansas must provide a moral and intellectual climate in which men are free to continue their search for truth. Nothing is more certain in this life than change. Society, like man, never stands still. It moves forward or it moves back. The status quo exists only as a phrase in the dictionary. These were the words of Chancellor Murphy at his inaugural address four and one half years ago. And so it is today. The element of change is definitely in a pro- gressive direction. The present building program, initiated by Chancellor Malott and developed so well under the guidance of Chancellor Murphy, is a sign of the dynamic vitality of the University. Today ' s senior can look back and remember the anticipated completion of the remodeling and addition to the Student Union and the beginning of and the setbacks which occurred in the build- ing of the new science building, now Malott Hall. To him there is a realization that the University is growing in physical plant. The long awaited field house became a reality, and of even more interest to the students was and is the surge of new student housing. First came North College, the first increase in student housing by the Uni- versity since the War. Rapidly following in its wake were the Scholarship halls, Stephenson, Pearson, and Sellards. Then came Grace Pearson and Douthart. And this year, Gertrude Sellards Pearson offers new housing units for upper class women as well as additional freshman wom- en housing; and Carruth and O ' Leary, the first men ' s dormitories, were opened. When today ' s freshman becomes a senior, he will find equally as many or more additions to the campus horizon. Currently Bailey Hall is be- ing completely reconstructed and will soon serve as the home of the School of Education. Already under way is the new Fine Arts building, and financial arrangements are currently under con- sideration for building a structure to house the School of Business and the Department of Eco- nomics. By spring, another men ' s dormitory should be well underway and plans have been started for married students housing. Other future improvements call for adding a wing to Watkins hospital and a new building to house part of the School of Engineering. This is a segment of the story of the Univer- sity past,.present and future. But there is more to the story of a University than just the build- ings which stand to serve it. There are also the story of the people who serve the University, and the story of the people who attend the Univer- sity, to consider. These also change, more rapidly perhaps than the physical structure, but never- theless, they are still as integral a part of the Uni- versity as Strong or Fraser Halls. In the following pages you will find the 1956 story of the University of Kansas—its growth, as well as its schools, its government, its facilities and its fun. You will find yourself an integral part of this story as a member of the University family, growing with the University. For the seniors counting their last days in the halls and walks of the University as undergradu- ates, and the freshmen just beginning life at the University, this is your record for 1956.

Murphy, Chancellor The -iiversity Senate by Jayne Callahan THERE is within our University a group of ad- ministrative and faculty people who make up what we call the University Senate. They func- tion as a senior policy-making body and have the powers of jurisdiction over all University matters. In a much warmer sense, it is this group which directs and guides life here at KU—they are a vital part of the color, the atmosphere, and the individuality of the University of Kansas. With- out these people, the University could not func- tion effectively as a working family body. Their presence and their efforts mean only one thing —that the oneness so essential to any university is present here in this school, our alma mater. Chancellor Murphy is the chairman and pre- siding officer of the Senate which is composed of the executive secretary, the deans, the regis- trar, the directors of divisions, the business manager, and all professors and associate pro- fessors who give not less than one half their time to resident university work. The Senate is charged with the responsibility of handling problems which affect all of the various schools of the University. They deter- mine the opening, closing and holiday dates for the school year and summer session. Questions of scholarship and attendance, methods of re- cording class standing, credits and exams are brought before the Senate. General regulations are made concerning advance d standing, uni- versity publications, student loans, university convocations, lectures and entertainments, and rules of eligibility for students participating in university and student activities. It is in the Senate that the Calendar Committee, made up of six faculty members and three students, prepare and recommend each year a calendar for the following year. Here too, honors, scholarships and prizes are conferred and the work of other institutions of learning is accredited. To the men of the Senate, the University is a living thing—still growing rapidly not only in numbers but in stature. As new and advan- tageous avenues keep opening up in every direc- tion they will continue their work. Meeting on the first Tuesday of the months October, No- vember, April, and May, they will offer their wise guidance and contribute much to the uni- versity which begins at the top of Fourteenth Street Hill and ends somewhere out in the green. grass behind the Allen Fieldhouse—the Uni- versity of Kansas. 25 Mr. President, George Sheldon. Ali Student Council OFFICERS George Sheldon, President Bev Jackson, Vice President Sandra James, Secretary Rich Billings, Treasurer THE All-Student Council, a bicameral legislative body, coordinates and regulates extra-curricular activities. The president presides over the Senate and the vice-president is in charge of the House of Rep- resentatives. Senators are elected according to proportional repre- sentation from the twelve schools of the University. Representatives are elected according to proportional representation from various liv- ing groups. In the freshman election on November 2, a man and woman from the freshman class will be elected to the Senate. Fresh- men will also elect two men to the House of Representatives and several women on the basis of voter participation. The All-Student Council, as the supreme governing body of student organizations, draws up a budget each year to facilitate coordination of activities. The $5,450 received from the activity fee will be used to finance many groups. Educational organizations such as the Band, dramatic groups, University Theater, Film Series, Forensic League, Intramurals, the University Daily Kansan, The Law Review, Moot Court, Glee Clubs, CCUN, and similar groups are eligible for allotment. The Engineering Exposition, Statewide Activities, and other classified public relations organizations are Senate Members: Ron Barta, Rich Billings, Jack Brown, Hugh Cox, Bill Dye, Scott Hayden, Anne Hesse, Jane Hewitt, Forrest Hoglund, Herb Horo- witz, Sandra James, Janis Johanson, Jerry Kindig, L eon Matassarin, Mary Michener, Jim B.

Social organizations such as ISA, Inter- national Club, and Mortar Board may also receive funds. Allotments are made to service organizations like tradi- tions, Student Directory, and the K-Book, also. The ASC, AWS, and similar administrative groups are included with other organizations in the budget. To perform the numerous functions of Student Govern- ment, many departments and committees are necessary. After the all-school election each spring, the All-Student Council must be reorganized for the following year. Per- haps the most important of the numerous presidential appointments is the Committee on Committees. This group, currently under Bob Pope ' s chairmanship, organizes the combined committees of both houses and supervises their operation. Important vice-presidential appointments include secretaries of the Departments of Student Welfare and Student Activities. Jim B. Miller and Ted Ice are now chairmen of these respective departments. The Student Court is nominated by the ASC president and presented to both the Senate and House of Representa- tive s for approval, with the exception of the Chief Justice who is appointed by the Dean of the Law School. Six Associate Justices are selected in addition to the Chief Justice. Generally, all court members are law students. This year, one Associate Justice, Walt Kennedy, will graduate in February and his position will be filled by Tom Phoenix, a pre-law student. The court handles all cases involving a violation of ASC rules. The Student Court has the right to determine fines and penalties. Dealing with traffic viola- tions has been a major function of the court. When an appeal is filed, a formal court session is held, complete with Prosecutor John Fields and Defense Counsel Grant Napier. The case is then judged by the court members and a decision made. House Members: Benny Anderson, Dick Berger, Thor Bogren, Gene Coombs, Marsh Crouthers, Clayton Durr, Pat Ellis, Marcia Fink, Warren George, Roy Gridley, Jan Hartell, Ray Krahen- buhl, Carol Mather, Crandall Melia, Jim M.

After the complicated mechanism of the All-Student Council has been set up in the spring and early fall, busi- ness begins. Bills are introduced for consideration as laws pertaining to student life. In order to become a law, a bill after two readings in both the Senate and House, must receive a majority vote in both houses. Some business has already been dealt with this year. The Campus Chest Charity Drive, headed by Bill Sayler, has been reorganized and the date changed. Forrest Hoglund ' s Athletic Seating Committee has gained additional good seats for students in Memorial Stadium and Squat Magazine has been established as an official humor publication. A Student Health Commission whose chairman is Vic Viola is endeavoring to improve student-Watkins Hospital rela- tions. The plan to charge for Student Directories has been rejected; while fines and traffic regulations have been revised. Many projects which are now being developed will soon become issues. Research is being made and steps taken to establish a 75c minimum wage for students, the problem of housing for married students is being con- sidered, and best of all, the possibility of a floating holiday is being discussed. This year, the scholarship committee will conduct a student-teacher evaluation. Forms will be distributed each semester so that each student may anony- mously express his opinion of his instructors, and results will be tallied. The possibilities of affiliating with the National Student Association and the World University Service are soon to be debated. The All-Student Council this year consists of a group of people who have resolved petty political jealousies and are striving to function as an efficient unit. This revitalized group governs the student body with responsibility to the students foremost. ASC Advisors: Kenneth Beasley, Howard Bum- gartel, William Scott, Walter Mikols, James Drury, J.

Mather, Vice President Megan Lloyd, Secretary Joy Immer, Treasurer Jean Eckles, Ona Finney, Amy Kipp, Edie Jochims, Dottie Sheets, Carol Mather, Megan Lloyd, Sandra James, Barbara Anderson, Eleanor Hawkinson. EVERY woman student enrolled in the University of Kansas is a member of the Associated Women Students. Auto- matically, upon enrollment in the university, she is subject to the rules of AWS and eligible for its benefits. She is a member of an organization which attempts in every way possible to promote activities and considerations which will help women to feel more at home on the KU campus, to enjoy fully their college life, and to develop their worth as individuals. Administration of AWS is divided between the Senate and the House of Representatives—the same bicameral system used by the Student Council. The combined houses make all rules and regulations concerning university women, and have the power to enforce them. The AWS Senate is composed of fifteen members: The president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer, two Better Student Government chairmen, the six defeated candidates for the offices, one representative from the House, and two freshmen women representatives. The AWS House of Representatives is composed of one representative and one alternate from each organized house with the exception of Corbin and North College Halls, which are allowed two representatives each because of their larger population. AWS sponsors High School Leadership Day, an activity which provides high school girls with an opportunity to see KU in action. Once a year Kansas high school girls are invited to send one of their outstanding senior women to KU for a weekend. Plans are made for the girls to take part in panel discussions, meet many KU women, hear talks by the Dean of Women, Martha Peterson, and Chancellor Murphy, and to attend KU ' s annual Rock Chalk Revue. All Women ' s Day, another AWS activity, is an annual event designed as an opportunity for all KU women to Front Row: Janet Jones, Julie Purcell, Polly Peppercorn, Ona Finney, Marjorye Baylor, Dale Barham, Linda Lemon, Sheila Dye, Sue Wesley, Barbara Sample, Billie Ann Dowdell.

Highlight of the event is the selection of a Dean for a Day. Each organized house nominates a candidate for the honor, and the Dean is elected at a convocation on All Women ' s Day. The successful candi- date takes over Dean Martha Peterson ' s schedule for one day. The AWS Sophomore Counseling program is an activity planned to give every new student a friend before she arrives on the Hill. Sophomore girls, chosen for their interest in KU and general enthusiasm, correspond with future KU women all summer, answering any questions the girls may have concerning campus life. Each spring AWS awards a scholarship to one university woman. The recipient is chosen by a special committee organized for the purpose. The scholarship is offered in commemoration of KU women students whose college careers have been terminated by death. AWS is also responsible for publishing KU Cues, a reference guide to college etiquette and rules for every occasion. The book is sent to all women students planning to enter the University, and is designed to acquaint them with various campus customs and regulations. Last spring, the KU Associated Women Students were hostesses to the National AWS Convention. The conven- tion was held on the KU campus during Spring Vacation. Nearly 500 girls, representing universities and colleges from all parts of the United States, worked together to solve common problems and gain new ideas for AWS activities. Bill Ore, Margaret Throm, Phyllis Carter, and Herb Horowitz talk over problems concerning the Collegiate Council for the United Nations. Collegiate Council for the United Nations (CCUN) THE Collegiate Council for the United Nations, a national organization boasting membership groups on 300 college campuses, is dedicated to informing the college community about the United Nations. The KU group was organized in 1953 and has been instrumental in colonizing other CCUN chapters throughout the state. One of the main functions of this organization is to maintain a library of information received from the De- partment of State and the United Nations. CCUN is the only non-governmental agency allowed to distribute this literature, and has received special recognition from the UN and the Department of State for its work. The organization also holds an annual Model Assembly, a project participated in by students from colleges and universities throughout the Midwest. The assembly is pat- terned after an actual UN meeting and is traditionally con- cluded with an international banquet, featuring songs and dances by students from foreign countries. Other activities of the organization include sponsoring an annual debate, arranging to bring films on international topics to the campus, providing speakers for various campus events, and, in the past, sponsoring World University Service on this campus. This year the CCUN will actively participate in the Eighth Annual United Nations Conference, sponsored by the KU Extension Department. The Conference is designed to study all areas of United Nations work, and is attended by representatives from all over the nation. CCUN will emphasize college relations to the UN.

Engineering Council OFFICERS Bill Franklin, President Karl Mecklenburg, Vice President Willis Reddick, Secretary-Treasurer THE PURPOSE of the Engineering Council is to coordinate the faculty and students in promoting and regulating the government of the School of Engineering. The Association was formed to create more unity among members of this school. The council operates from a budget of its own and provides discounts for members at council-sponsored social events such as the Hob Nail Hop and Engineering Banquet. The Engineering Banquet, one of the major social func- tions of the council, is held early in the spring semester. Last year, as in other years, a nationally known engineer was featured as the guest speaker. This engineer, Admiral Rickover of the U. S. Navy, discussed the operation of the atomic submarine Nautilus. The Engineering Council supervises the publication of the Kansas Engineer, a periodical exclusively for engineers. This group also plans an Engineering Calendar which in- cludes meetings of the various departments and honorary societies. Each spring, approximately 10,000 people visit the coun- cil-sponsored Engineering Exposition. Ten members of the council, representing each department, are in charge of their respective departmental displays. The council also chooses a general chairman and publicity chairman for this event. Nearly every engineer and architect participates in some way. To climax the engineers ' busy year, they present an annual challenge to their rivals, the lawyers, for a Tug 0 ' War at Potter ' s Lake. This is always a major attraction during the final weeks of school and hundreds of students and faculty attend to see which school shall reign supreme for the coming year. 31 Front Row: Jo Houlton, Jane Hornaman, Joan Sherar, Lorie Dudley, Sue Summerville, Margaret Donnelly.

Panhellenic Council OFFICERS Joan Sherar, President Margaret Donnelly, Vice President Gretchen Guinn, Secretary Mary Ellen Lewis, Treasurer Panhellenic-IFC sponsor the New House Mothers Tea. PANHELLENIC council is the central organization governing all sororities on the campus. The council is composed of the president and one elected representative from each sorority, one representative from Junior Panhellenic and one member from the AWS Senate. Their activities include such projects as rush week, scholarship, and open houses for freshman women. Sororities, much like any other group of organizations, have various problems, many of which have common solutions. Panhellenic provides an opportunity for leaders of the various groups to meet to- gether, discuss these problems, and further improve the academic and social status of the sorority system at KU. Sally Rice, Diane Guyot, Betty Douglas, and Doris Bon- nell make Junior Panhellenic tick. Interfraternity Council OFFICERS Jim Lowe, President Ray Krahenbuhl, Vice President Bob Bush, Secretary John Nangle, Treasurer Front Row: Crandall Melia, Don Johnson, John Nangle. Back Row: Al Sweeny, Bill Crow, Jim Lowe, Bob Bush, George Ira. THE INTERFRATERNITY Council was established to secure a greater unity in the aims and objectives of member fra- ternities and to establish an effective regulation of inter- fraternity affairs. Service to the community, University, and member groups is the basis for the operation of this group. IFC is composed of three members from each member fraternity, who in turn elect the executive council. The executive council is composed of the four executive officers, an IFPC advisor, and chairman of rush week, Greek week, social activities and publicity. The vice presi- dent of the organization is the scholarship chairman. The executive council serves as an advisory group to the presi- dent and supervises a majority of the business and execu- tive matters. What does it mean if you are a member of the IFC or Panhellenic Council? It means that you are serving to help develop a mode of living. These organizations, as the co-ordinators of Greek life, contribute much more to our campus culture than most people realize. Their func- tion governs directly some two thousand people and in- directly affects all students and the University adminis- tration.

Interfraternity The Greek year unfolds with rush week, an interesting phenomenon of human relations, and continues with the workshops held by Panhellenic, in which the girls discuss finances, scholarship, and rushing. There is also an eve- ning meeting of chapter advisors to discuss common prob- lems. The two groups in the hierarchy of the Greeks sponsor in conjunction with the independent dorms the annual New Housemothers ' Tea, which provides an oppor- tunity for the new housemothers to become acquainted. The Greeks ' largest common project, Greek Week, will be ushered in this year with the Campus Chest program. One of the nation ' s top orchestras, Duke Ellington, will be on campus that evening for the annual Greek Week Dance, at which time the queen and her court will be presented, to reign over the ball and the rest of the festive week. Also included in this hellenistic season will be the IFC- Panhellenic scholarship dinner which honors the individuals and groups with the best academic records. The following evening, the fraternities and sororities compete among themselves in the annual song fest. Other highlights of the week include IFC panel discus- sions of the more important aspects of fraternity life, and an all-student convocation with a speaker of national im- portance. Last year the Richard Harkness convocation was one of the most successful since Ralph Bunche spoke here. The finale of Greek Week is the chariot race, which will be held in the stadium this year. Olympic feats of old may Council seem a little remote as you watch this bit of inter-club competition. Two-legged horses in strange harness strain for the finish line while the gladiators in the chariots shout words of encouragement. The race will March 17, the day of the NCA A playoffs. Many returning alums will be surprised indeed to see such strange goings on. On the serious side, both IFC and Panhellenic give monetary scholarships annually. Panhellenic gives $150 and IFC gives two $250 scholarships to outstanding sophomores. Two subsidiary groups, Panhellenic Junior and IFPC, serve to govern the common interest of the pledge classes. Panhellenic Junior was established to create friendship and co-operation among the various sorority pledge classes. It consists of two elected representatives from each member organization and an advisory council from Senior Pan- hellenic. They discuss problems existing among the various pledge classes and assist Senior Panhellenic in its projects. The Interfraternity Pledge Council serves much the same purpose for their parent organization, the IFC. This year they are active in the Olympic Fund Drive. The organiza- tion consists of three elected members from each fraternity pledge class and is counciled by an advisor from IFC. These organizations that are the nucleus of the Greek system contain an exceptional group of young men and women with foresight and ability. The success of the fraternity and sorority program is dependent on their plans and efforts. 34 Party of Greek Organizations OFFICERS Norman Scott, President Henry Wittenberg, Vice President Mitzi Smith, Secretary Fran Todd, Treasurer POGO Executive Council. Bob Johnson and Henry Wittenberg (on floor). Sitting are Fran Todd, Mitzi Smith, Anne Clark, and Norman Scott. AMIDST the tumult and the shouting of political chaos there emerged, two years ago, two separate political parties. They were the Party of Greek Organizations and the Allied Greek Independent Party. This, then, was the birth of POGO which last year grew to include POGO ' s friends, composed of freshman women and other organizations without exist- ing political affiliations. POGO was formed to insure a truly representative stu- dent government to all who would make use of it. Although the membership in POGO is predominantly Greek, its policy is designed to include the welfare of all students. The governing body of POGO is composed of three representatives from each member organization and con- venes hi-weekly. At these meetings issues such as student housing, publications, and campus chest are discussed. In- terest in the organization is maintained on a high level by participation in committees and at meetings, which are held open to all those desiring to attend. Through your interest and support POGO can help stimulate a student govern- ment of which we all may be proud. Front Row: Hulen F. Jenkins, J. P. Stephens, Bill Woo, Robert E.

Sterrett, Secretary-Treasurer IDEALLY everyone should have an interest in student gov- ernment and campus politics. Through the efforts of the members of the KU political parties, as in the scope of national politics, various problems are solved and issues are discussed. Although Allied Greek Independent campus political party is not quite two years old, it has made great advances in carrying out its duties. But wait: who is AGI and how does it function ? AGI is a party composed of both Independent and Greek students. From the wide range of opinion vested in these two groups it is possible to come very near the true feeling of the students. Even though this system is new, it has been very successful, and doubtless will be in the future. The legislative body of AGI is the Forum. The Forum consists of representatives of all the houses and students who belong to the party. Each member house has one vote with the exception of the three women ' s dorms which may have as many as six votes. It is the duty of the members to draft policy, discuss current problems, and to decide on a party stand. Thus it is through the forum that the party arrives at useful solutions to campus problems.

Its original purpose was to get Taft into the National Presidency. After that election, Pach turned its attention to campus elections. For forty-three years Pach was the dominant political party on the KU campus. Many parties came, then vanished into oblivion. In the early days, campus elections were held in the fall. The tickets were represented by classes instead of by parties as they are now. From 1926, when the candidates were listed by parties for the first time, until 1954, when the party disappeared from active campus politics, Pach won 22 of 28 elections. Ask any old alum—he ' ll tell you that Pach has been as lasting a tradi- tion at KU as the Jayhawk itself. In the spring of 1954, the party became divided and split into two parties. Since then, Pach has taken no active part in campus elections as a political party, but contrary to popular belief, it did not completely disband. The Society of Pachacamac has been reorganized. There is, however, a great difference from the Pach of old for its return is not as a political party, but as an honorary political society. The members are chosen on the basis of their extra-curricular and academic leadership during their years at KU. Although the faces of these men do not appear in this picture, they will be found in many of the pictures on the preceding pages. The membership of the organization is secret, known only to those in the organization. The purpose of the organization is to bring together a body of student leaders of the campus to share ideas, plans, and problems. We feel that through the combined efforts of several persons, accomplishments previously impossible will be facilitated. Although the society will not openly participate in campus activities as an organization, its in- fluence will be felt in many quarters. 37 38 THE MONTH of September means a lot of things to many different people. It ' s the ninth calendar month in the year, the end of the summer and vacations, the wrap-up of the major league base- ball season with its flourishing pennant races, and the beginning of football season. September means chillier nights, the end of flies and mos- quitoes for another year, and to the younger generation, only three more months until Christ- mas. To a group of some two thousand men and women, however, September, 1955 was much more than just another month. It was the em- barkation point of life as a college student at -1111w -- ow, On tf Col I ege by Bill Witt K.U. Gone forever were the happy, carefree days of high school, the lingering memories of the Senior Prom and graduation, replaced by a summer of anticipation and preparation for the year of college life ahead. But now, even the three months of waiting and wondering were over, September was here, and K.U. threw open its doors to the newcomers. The city of Law- rence, quiet and peaceful through the summer months, was transformed into a bustling hubbub of excitement by the arrival of the new Jay- hawkers, coming from every hamlet, town, and city in Kansas, and from Brooklyn, New York, to Burbank, California, and from many other nations as well. Suitcase in hand, they stood on the driveway of North College, on the front porch of Carruth-O ' Leary, or on the grass be- side the entrances of Sellards or Pearson, ready to step inside the door to take their places with- in the University as K.U. freshmen. Four years hence, those who are still around will emerge from these doorways and leave the hallowed grounds of Mt. Oread to take their places in the modern world, but between these two milestones, many things will have happened in the inde- scribable life of a K.U. student. But this is yet another story, or many stories, and our chief concern is only chapter one in the life of a col- lege student at K.U., the excitement and blood- shot eyes of rush week, the dilemma of new stu- dent orientation, and the headaches of enroll- ment. -T- tt Picnic , SUA style.

' s two thousand new students upon the Lawrence scene, Mt. Oread welcomed back over a thou- sand old-timers, the Greeks, the members of K.U. ' s twenty-seven social fraternities and twelve sororities. Once again it was time to solicit candidates for membership among those who had decided to make their college home away from home a Greek letter organization. To fraternity men and sorority women, this annually means giving up the last two weeks of summer vacation to trudge back to Mt.

But then the pre- and pre-pre-rush parties were over, and the Greeks prepared themselves for the big event itself, so appropriately named rush week. The sororities got their usual head start by playing hostess to all upper-class transfer rushees on Fri- day, and on Saturday the rest of the year ' s 346 I ' d like you to meet ... Delta Gamma.

Five of the Seven Little Phis. women began the four days of social visiting, drinking coffee, and watching delightful skits about everything from rewritten fairy tales to parodies of Broadway shows. The fraternities started the week in a big way with the traditional train dates, an off-campus dinner and evening of entertainment, on Satur- day night preceding the official opening of men ' s rush on September 4. Sunday morning ' s meeting of all rushees in the Union made every- thing official, and each man was ready to begin his social visits to at least four different fra- ternities, before deciding where he would spend the next four years of his life. By Thursday, September 8, rush week was all over, save the tumult and shouting of exuberant pledge clas ses, and a group of blood-shot eyed and calloused-hand Greeks could again relax and catch up on several missed nights of sleep. Across the hill, the beaming faces and shiny new pledge pins conspicuously anchored over the chests of 451 of the young men who participated in rush week told half the story of the past few days. The other half could be seen on the second floor of Strong Hall that eventful Wednesday afternoon as the new sorority pledges, 274 of 41 them, filed one by one into the Dean of Women ' s office and signed a declaration of pledging. Best dates were half over, and a look of happiness a nd relief was written across most of the girls ' faces. Even before the completion of rush week, KU itself was setting the stage for the arrival of the freshman men who had chosen the independent dorms, scholarship halls, and private homes as their living quarters, and for the entire body of freshman women who will be at home in the freshman dorms. Rush week passed on, and the campus was beset by the activities of orientation week almost before anyone realized it. Faced with the prob- lem of exposing a starry-eyed group of new stu- dents to the aspects of college life as well as acquainting them with the facilities of KU, the University invented orientation week. This is a unique period in the life of every new student, in which he is given a sampling of practically everything he ' ll be doing during his next four years, all jammed into that one short, but excit- ing week. Besides attending the meetings, the student is exposed to the brighter side of KU life, the social whirl. Potter ' s Lake was the scene of the Y watermelon feed on Thursday night, and Friday night the Student Union held open house. Saturday afternoon saw the jayhawker second unit upset the first team by one point in All in the space of one week! 42 Rush begins for six hundred men. a game scrimmage.

Late into Sunday night, wheels were turning in preparation, the wheels of the IBM machines installed in the registrar ' s office. Say cheese, Pi Phi pledging banquet. 43 He went thataway! Who can forget the mixed emotions of his first enrollment? That feeling of hopelessness upon first entering the ballroom, the exasperat- ing search for an advisor, the futile first attempt to decipher that complicated maze of signs and numbers that students watch with haunted eyes, like brokers seeing a falling market, the headache of trying to reschedule that five hour class that closed five minutes too early, the anticipation of going through the checking pens with fingers crossed, and finally the relief of passing the final check, followed by the sheer joy of running down the back steps to get away from the hub- bub and confusion. It was all over then, except for the chore of wading into the bookstore to buy books. A sophomore was saying, Yes, it was a lot easier this year with those IBM cards, while a freshman wondered how anything could be worse. But even the havoc of enrollment offered Is social dance too hard? some compensation, especially in the evenings. An ISA sponsored series of Apple-polishing parties Monday night gave the freshmen a chance to meet personally and informally mem- bers of the faculty in their homes, and the climax to orientation week came Wednesday night with the Last Nighter street dance. Perhaps symbolic of the forthcoming year, a bright sun greeted. KU land on Thursday, Sep- tember 15, the first day of classes. To the older students, it was simply the start of another year, but to the new members of the University fam- ily, standing on the threshold of this new ex- perience, there were many unanswered questions: I wonder if college is as hard as everyone says? How am I going to get along? What is KU really like? Shortened morning classes allowed time for the first convocation in Hoch. This was the 90th year of KU. For all new students, the IBM takes over.

The skit showing the origin of the Jay- hawk, the Crimson and the Blue, and the Rock Chalk yell, the parade down the slope of Mt. Oread to the stadium, the impressive ceremony explaining the University seal, and the carrying of the torch of knowledge to light the altar fire all told the story of KU traditions. Then Chan- cellor Murphy administered the oath, and more than 2,000 new students officially became mem- bers of KU as they said, I will transmit the University better, finer, and stronger than it was transmitted to me. This was the end, and the beginning. As the newly-inducted members of KU ' s ever growing student body filed out of Memorial Stadium, the preparation was over. Chapter one in the life of a KU college student was then complete. Now, on with college! Tradition.

Miller, has also become quite a VIP behind the scenes due to his dual chairmanship of the ASC ' s Pep and Rallies, and Elections committees. Well qualified to hold two such positions, Jim is past president of Alpha Phi. Omega, past president of KU KU ' s and has served on the Student Welfare and Parents ' Day com- mittees. Not one to be idle, the Merriam senior keeps busy by filling an ASC seat, serving as chairman of the senior class Gift Committee, and keeping the books of Sachem. Jim came to KU in 1952 on a residence hall scholarship and later joined Delta Tau. Delta. In his spare time, Jim bones up on the third r , ' ritlimetic, and scholastically has added his name to the honor roll. CAROL MATHER shows the winning smile which clues her personality. A glance at her record reveals her to be one of the most competent women on campus. This education senior was vice president of her junior class, is now vice president of the AWS, and sits in the ASC. A member of Phi Alpha Theta and Mortar Board, Carol ' s name has appeared on the honor roll. President of her pledge class and honor initiate, Carol has since been rush chairman and scholarship chairman of Alpha Delta Pi. Serving as chair- man of the NSA investigation committee, she has also worked on the Steering Committee of the Campus Chest, and is a past president of Stafford County for State Wide Activities. As EXECUTIVE council member and former president of the United Veterans Organization, Bill. Lyons is repre- sentative of the nearly 1500 veterans on campus. Before coming to KU last year, he spent three years in the Mer- chant Marine and five years in the Army. He is at present a 1st lieutenant in an Army Reserve Unit. Bill ' s prime interest is in the UVO, which provides an opportunity for individuals with common experiences and related back- grounds to meet in order to further their own interests in collegiate and other related activities. Under Bill ' s lead- ership the UVO sponsored several social events including the annual Easter Egg Hunt for orphans from the state home at Atchison, and the Chuck Mather Banquet. The organization was also the instigator of the proposed Honor System. Above his activities and business major, Bill has an even deeper interest in his family; wife Joy, and the two small Lyonses. AND W 3 I Y BILL BUCK, quiet hardworking man behind the scenes, is well known on campus as president of SUA, but this Kansas City senior ' s activities also include the KU Relays Committee, Disciplinary, and Publications committees of ASC. Bill has given much time to the Union Operating Board, Parents ' Day, Orientation Week, and Homecoming committees. A Kappa Sigma, he has served as Grand Master of Ceremonies and is now on the Senior Council. Bill has been active on the Executive Board of IFC and served as general chairman of Greek Week-1955. He represented the KU-IFC at the national IFC conference last year. This member of Owl Society and Sachem plans to enter KU medical school next fall. IF ANYONE is curious to know how it feels to be Dean for a Day, just ask Joan Sherar. Awarded the honor last year on AWS All Women ' s Day, this Paola senior is proving her administrative capabilities this fall as president of both Panhellenic council and Delta Delta Delta. Trans- ferring from Baker University her sophomore year, Dean Joanie has since piled up a long list of accomplish- ments including work on the TAWS Steering Committee, the AWS Senate, and Bacteriology Club as well as Par- ents ' Day, Orientation, Homecoming, and NSA Investi- gation Committees for the ASC. An honor roll student and Mortar Board Recording Secretary, Joanie ' s vocational interest is bacteriology, and at present she works 22 hours a week as a research assistant in her chosen field. IF FORREST FUNKY HOGLUND can find anything else to do during his final year, it will be news. One of those rare ones with a talent for doing well in everything he under- takes, Forrest excels in athletics, activities, and academics. Captain of the KU baseball team, the Kansas City senior is a member of the K Club and chairman of the Student Athletics Board. President of Delta Chi, editor of the Senior Calendar, member of the ASC Finance and Audit- ing Committees, as well as sitting in the ASC Senate fill his activity calendar. Yet with all this, Forrest still finds time to hit the books, witness his honor roll status and Kennecott Copper Company scholarship. A mechanical engineering major, Forrest holds active membership in four honorary fraternities: Sachem, Tau Beta Pi, Pi Tau Sigma, and Sigma Tau, the latter of which he is president. Elected a Distinguished. Military Student, Forrest will leave KU as an army officer. by Jane Pecinovsky IT WAS a tense summer. Would the new girls ' dormitory be ready? Only days remained, and a bumper crop of freshman women would soon be at the front door with bag and baggage. And they came, though there wasn ' t any door yet. At Gertrude Sellards Pearson Hall the new women proudly marched in and surveyed what is to be their home for at least a year. Then they fell into the whirlpool of KU activities you see pictured here, and waited patiently while their home was built to fit around them. While they were getting in step with the pace of the campus, a good slice of young Ameri- can, manhood moved into Carruth and O ' Leary Halls and fell into the pleasant turmoil of dormi- tory life, a day of which has been captured by our photographer. Twenty or thirty years hence in reminiscing or in a moment of reverie, one will most often recall the people that he knew in school, but to a few there will be some occasional thoughts that they were the first group to occupy the University ' s newest housing projects, Carruth and O ' Leary, and Gertrude Sellards Pearson. These two hotel-like structures erected on the campus this year are the latest additions to the KU dormitory family. Marking the first time the University has offered a complete men ' s residence hall, Carruth and. O ' Leary are occupied by two hundred men. Although connected by a main entrance hall, the two operate as separate u nits. Carruth, on the left when entering, houses the reading room and a head resident ' s quarters on the first floor. The sleeping rooms, in pastel colors with twin beds, desks, built-in closets, and easy chairs, each accommodate two men, and are located on all three floors. 62 O ' Leary includes the same_features but has a music room rather than a reading room on the first floor . Both have dining rooms, recreation rooms, and service facilities on the basement floor. One kitchen serves both buildings. For freshmen and upperclass women, Ger- trude Sellards Pearson houses four hundred and forty coeds. In the center section the dining room is located on the ground floor, the living room and head resident ' s quarters on first, and the library, recreation, and sleeping rooms on second. The west wing, for freshmen, has four floors of girls ' rooms and the ground floor kitchen. For upperclass women, the east wing has five floors of rooms. Each of the two-girl rooms has twin beds, desks, easy chairs, floor lamps, and built-in wardrobes. The walls are painted in pastel col- ors. The dormitory also has a sun porch and a covered roof terrace off the living room. The names of the men ' s dormitories me- morialize William Herbert Carruth, a professor of German, and Raphael Dorman O ' Leary, an English professor. Gifts from Mrs. Joseph R. Pearson and the late Mr. Pearson together with a revenue bond issue made possible the women ' s dormitory. The one and a quarter million-dollar project is named for Mrs. Pearson, a 1901 graduate.

If one looks only at the first, he may become persuaded that this is no place to discover any religion. If one concen- trates entirely on the other side, he may become unduly optimistic. Both directions in religion can be seen at KU. Since the University of Kansas is a state-sup- ported school, all kinds of students come here. No one should expect that there would be a larger number of students interested in religious affairs than would be found in the general popu- lation. In plain fact, there should be less religion on the campus than in the home community. Here many students are away from parental guidance for the first time. Here it is not neces- sary to follow the accustomed religious practice of the home. The program of academic and extra-curricular activities, likewise, has no par- ticular religious slant. Perhaps at home the affairs of the church loomed large or even dominated the whole life. But on a campus the variety and intensity of matters apart from religion may lead an immature student to believe that religion need not have so important a position in life. But this is only half the story. Coming to the University of Kansas, whatever a student may have known religiously in the largest and best city church, he discovers equip- ment, about religion leadership and association, and gets an awareness of religious issues he has never experienced before. Six religious bodies have trained ministers to students, and all the churches have foundations or fellowships for students. In the regular Sunday services of all churches in Lawrence, ministers have been chosen who understand young people and can speak to their present needs. In the foundation meetings the student ' s religious thinking is stirred. He is compelled to examine his own religious convic- tions and practices so that he comes out of the university a better informed and more commit- ted person. Furthermore, he is amazed at the large number of students on the campus who are deeply interested in religious matters. Where he knew a few at home, now he becomes acquainted with a great group. Religious life at KU has problems but also unusual opportunities. 69 FELLOWSHIP Above, left—The Freshman ' Y ' Camp at Lone Star Lake. SERVICE Above, right—Mary Edith Kizer works at the gational Church. SOCIAL Below, left—Picnic at Lone Star Lake. EDUCATIONAL Below, right—English style debate. THE Young Men ' s Christian Association and the Young Women ' s Christian Association are work- ing jointly to create Christian atmosphere in which we as students may develop a more stable sense of values and may unite in fellowship, study, worship, and service to make our college experiences more meaningful. The intention is to provide the entire campus community with an opportunity for fellowship on a Christian basis, but with membership open to all. The Y offers understanding through groups which may be inter-racial, inter-cultural, inter-national and non-sectarian. The program operates through four commis- sion areas. Christian Heritage sponsors group study of the Bible. The Personal and Campus Affairs commission sponsors the Freshman Fel- lowship Camp and the Watermelon Feed for new students. It plans the ski trip to Colorado and this year will sponsor a trip to Mexico.

The Social Responsibility Commission relates personal beliefs and responsibilities to the com- munity. A political emphasis week has been planned. The International Commission seeks to emphasize citizenship and understanding of the world community by joining KU students and International students in discussions of common interests. Orientation to American social cus- toms and comparisons between the American culture and other cultures are emphasized. The Rock Chalk Revue is sponsored by the YMCA, and other Y projects include a YWCA baby-sitting bureau, participation in the University intramural program and sponsorship of the Faculty Forum. The KU Y groups are active in intercolle- giate activities, by attending conferences, and holding positions in the Kansas District, the Rocky Mountain Region, and the National Stu- dent Council of the YM and YWCA.

OFFICERS Don Pizinger, President Gary Jordan, Vice President John Dierking, Secretary Tom Griffith, Treasurer THE Student Religious Council is the coordinat- ing body for the religious groups on the KU campus. Its membership includes two repre- sentatives from each university student religious group participating. The two-fold purpose is to further the religious life on the campus and to strive for better understanding between the faiths. The Council accomplishes the first part of its purpose by initiating campus-wide religious projects. Its main project for this year is Re- ligious Emphasis Week, February 26 through March 1. The Religious Emphasis Week Steering Committee already is planning seminars and dis- cussion groups for the five-day program. At least ten well-known speakers are expected to participate. The Council also plans at least two series of organized house discussions led by local lay speakers and ministers. Other possibilities for this year ' s program include a Thanksgiving serv- ice and a religious play or reading. by Marcia Metcalf Student Religious Council.

Toward One Goal By working together on the Council the groups have increased their understanding of other faiths, and by this sharing of experiences and through study groups a greater religious unity can be achieved on the campus. The B ' nai Brith Hillel Counselorship has as its chief goal the propagation and dissemination of the faith, culture, and history of the Jewish people. This is accomplished by means of a social and religious program with Sunday evening cost suppers and regular weekly religious services. The Canterbury Association. is composed of all Episcopal faculty and students on the campus. Don Ross, Bev Jackson, George Ira, and Father Andy Berry relax at the Canterbury House. 73 In the evening by the moon- light . . . Liahona Fellow- ship gathers around the campfire. The KU Association is affiliated with the Na- tional Canterbury Association which incorpo- rates faculty and students throughout the world. The five points emphasized by the Association are worship, study, service, recreation, and fel- lowship. The activities of daily worship in Dan- forth Chapel are central in emphasis and the activities surrounding the Canterbury House are complementary to that central act of worship. The Christian Science organization provides the opportunity for the individual, in the com- pany of those with similar aims, to study the truths of Christian Science and to experience their healing effects. The Thursday evening meetings in Danforth Chapel are conducted by the students and are open to students, faculty, and friends of the University. Members of Gamma Delta meet together for Sunday evening supper. The young people of the Congregational Christian churches and the Evangelical and Re- formed church are organized into the United Student Fellowship religious group. This organ- ization is divided into three main commissions, faith, action, and fellowship, which together promote such activities as the This I Believe lecture series, the Work Day for Christ move- ment, worship seminars, and various recreational functions. The Disciples Student Fellowship vitalizes the religious life of the Christian Church young people on campus. Group activities which pro- mote spiritual growth in the members ' commit- ment to Jesus Christ include the Sunday evening fellowship, the Christian girls ' sorority, Kappa Beta, and the married student fellowship. Peyton Tim Short (right), Regional Secretary of World University Service, visits with members of the United Student Fellowship. Gamma Delta, the student organization of the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod, aims at a thorough study of the Bible, the dissemination of a Christian philosophy of life, the encourage- ment of fellowship among Lutherans, and the furthering of Lutheran Consciousness. The group meets every ' Sunday evening for supper, discussions, and social functions, and also spon- sors services at Danforth Chapel. To promote fellowship among young Chris- tians, the Christian Fellowship is a non-denom- inational group. It is a chapter of the interna- tional college organization, Inter-Varsity Chris- tian. Fellowship. Members meet every Tuesday in Strong Hall. The College students of the Reorganized Church of the Latter Day Saints find much in- spiration in the Liahona Fellowship. The pur- pose is to advocate and promote participation for good in campus life. Its activities include Upper Room services, campfire meetings, and intramural participation. The Lutheran Student Association, composed of all Lutheran students except the Missouri Synod, meets every Su nday evening at the Trinity Lutheran Church for cost suppers, de- votional programs, and social activities. A Sun- day morning Bible study session also is sponsored by this group. Top: Monsignor Towle chats with members of the New- man Club at a Sunday morning coffee.

The Newman Club is an organization for Catholic students to deepen the spiritual lives and to augment the temporal lives of its mem- bers through a balanced program of religious, intellectual, and social activities. The religious side is enriched through daily rosaries, retreats, and the annual living rosary; the intellectual, through weekly discussions on pertinent subjects, book reviews, and guest speakers; and the social, through after-mass breakfasts, participation on intramural athletic teams, and other social activities. Roger Williams Fellowship is an organization for the Baptist students. Ernst Klein, the Uni- versity pastor, guides the students in die plan- ning and execution of their religious programs. The group meets on Sundays for University Class, a fellowship dinner and vespers, and on Tuesday nights for a coffee hour with Bible study.

The new Methodist Student Center, adjoining the campus, is a center of religious training, experience, and service for the 1,900 Methodist students at KU. Facilities and programs provide for classes, fel- lowship groups and meals, wholesome recreation, counseling with the directors, committee plan- ning and worship, and training in all phases of churchmanship. The Westminster Fellowship is entering its tenth year of Presbyterian student work on the campus with an extensive daily program includ- ing study of the Bible in Crossroads; study of the Christian faith in Sunday evening fellowship, seminars, and discussion groups; promotion of churchmanship in P.M.O. and P.W.O.; and preparation for Christian vocations in Celtic Cross and personnel counseling. The Society of Friends believes that man ' s first duty is to God, and that no other command can be followed which is not in accordance with God ' s will as manifested in the individual con- science. Informal discussions among the mem- bers are held each Friday evening to help in achieving the purpose of Young Friends: to discover in daily life the way of God. 77 Before a Kickoff by Park McGee A GOOD team has to have seventy-five to one hundred good players on scholarships. This statement by Coach Chuck Mather leads to what is perhaps the most controversial part of inter- collegiate football-player procurement. Who discovers a talented halfback or guard? How is he induced to attend the University of Kansas? Who pays for his football scholarship? The answers to these questions are to be found in the activities of a group of people known as the alumni and friends of the University of Kansas. Coach Mather generally hears of a promising high-school football player through a report sent in by someone in the athlete ' s home town who thinks that the boy is potential college material. Ideally, this happens during the boy ' s junior or perhaps even during his sophomore year. Several newspaper clippings are sent to the KU coach by the alum, and the coach has the boy scouted during his senior year. The next phase of recruiting is persuading him to enroll at KU. This involves salesmanship on the part of the coaching staff and the alums, rather than inducements such as convertibles, or other things supposedly used to lure athletes onto a college campus. The prospect is brought to a KU football or basketball game by the alum. While this football player is visiting Lawrence, he is given a grand tour of the athletic facilities and buildings of KU. Meanwhile, he has been hearing of the virtues of the school, and will continue to hear them extolled until he finally chooses his college. The money for the football scholarships comes from two sources, donations from friends and alumni, and money from program and ticket sales. This money is apportioned to the athletes by the committee of the John H. Outland Fund, through the Endowment Association of the 78 1 Director, producer and writer Chuck Mather. University. The alumni contributions to this fund are made through two organizations, the Century Club and the Jayhawk Club. The Century Club is composed of KU sup- porters who donate one hundred dollars to the Outland Fund. The Jayhawk Club dues are one dollar per month, but many of its members donate sums exceeding this amount. Members in these clubs have seating preference at games, and are entitled to membership in one of the quarter- back clubs. These quarterback clubs are for the stimulation of interest in the games and the team. At their weekly or bi-weekly meetings they have dinner, watch game films, and hear reports from members of the coaching staff. At present, quarterback clubs are organized in Law- rence, Topeka, Kansas City, Leavenworth, Wichita, Hutchinson, Independence, and Dodge City. The Outland Fund is a recent attempt to channel alumni aid, through a program con- trolled by the University. It was established in 1948 in honor of John H. Outland, a well known Kansas City doctor, who was a very active KU booster. He attended Kansas in the late 1890 ' s, but achieved sports fame at the University of Pennsylvania. As a fullback and tackle, he was twice selected to Walter Camp ' s All-American team. When he returned to Kansas, Outland assisted the KU coaches, officiated at numerous intercollegiate contests, and helped found the Kansas Relays. Although a majority of the eighty football players who have been awarded scholarships this year are financed by the Outland Fund, a few of them have received scholarships such as a Stansbury Award. Two members of this year ' s starting lineup are receiving grants from this fund which is given by Benjamin M. Stansbury, an alumnus from Los Angeles. They were given the award because of academic work, but had priority over other students because of their athletic prowess. When KU fields a winning football team, its success is an indication of the presence of good coaching, talented players, a strong alumni or- ganization, and loyal fans. First among these in chronology, and often in importance, is the work done by the alumni and friends of KU through the Century Club, the Jayhawk Club, and the various quarterback clubs. Coach calls the play. 79 Texas Christian DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS KANSAS could do nothing right in this non-con- ference tilt, as the Horned ' Frogs from TCU took advantage of every KU miscue to romp to an easy victory. Texas Christian scored twice with intercepted Kansas passes, and Jayhawker fum- bles set up two more tallies for the Frogs. TCU halfback Jim Swink was the game ' s outstanding performer, rushing for 137 yards and scoring twice. For Kansas, John Francisco and John Traylor scored a touchdown each. Francisco ' s touchdown came on a seven-yard plunge, and Traylor ' s was on an eleven-yard blast. John Handley added both conversions. Swink around end for seventeen. O ' Day Williams intercepts KU aerial. 80 Washington State THE COUGARS WERE TAMED THE JAYHAWKERS broke a seventeen game los- ing streak by grinding out a 13-0 victory over a luckless band of Washington State Cougars. It was Kansas ' day to get the breaks, as the alert Hawks recovered three fumbles and intercepted four passes. Kansas scored on the first play of the second period on a three-yard dive by John Fran- cisco. This gave Kansas a 6-0 lead, which it nur- sed until midway in the final period, when senior halfback Ralph Moody intercepted a pass thrown by Washington State quarterback Frank Sarno and sped 52 yards down the west sideline for a touchdown. Handley converted for the final 13-0 score. Almost a TD for KU. 4041t441.:, Cougars interfere. S1 Colorado WHO SAID THE BUFFALO WAS EXTINCT KANSAS fought a heavily favored Colorado squad to a standstill for three and one-half quarters, but the Buffalo depth and thin mountain air wore down the Jayhawkers, as Colorado pushed across two fourth period touchdowns for a 12-0 win. A holding penalty on an apparent Wally Strauch-John Handley touchdown pass play nul- lified a touchdown which would have given Kan- sas a lead late in the second quarter, but the Jay- hawks couldn ' t score after that. Strauch amazed observers with his cool passing and ballhandling, but KU could not muster a sustained offense. Frank Becker and Dick Harkins scored the Colo- rado touchdowns, both in the final minutes of the fourth quarter. Every man a tiger. Reich picks up ten against Colorado. 82 Iowa State THE CYCLONES WEREN ' T HURRICANE IONE KANSAS rallied in the closing minutes to tie Iowa State before a Parent ' s Day crowd of 20,000. Co-Captain Dick Reich plunged over from the one yard line for the KU touchdown with only 1:19 left in the game. John Handley shrugged off the tremendous pressure and added the conver- sion which tied the score. The KU defense was magnificent, twice stopping the Cyclones inside the KU five. The lone Iowa State touchdown came midway in the third quarter when fullback Donn Lorenzen fled 60 yards on a draw play, shaking off KU tacklers en route. One of the highlights of the game was an 84-yard punt by KU halfback Ted Rhode. It was the longest kick in the history of KU football. Up and over, Traylor gets his man. Buller intercepts in the end zone. 83 All Americans A by Dick Walt COACH M. E. Bill Easton ' s KU track team, in the best showing in the history of the University, placed third in the NCAA track meet this sum- mer, scoring 30 points to finish behind the Uni- versity of Southern. California and UCLA. Point-winners for the Jayhawkers included Les Bitner, who won the javelin with a throw of 246 feet, one inch, setting a new NCAA record in the process; Bill Nieder, who won the shot with a throw of 57 feet, 3 inches; Allan Frame, who finished third in the two-mile, and Dick Blair, who placed fourth in the 220-yard dash. A week later the Jayhawkers entered the AAU meet at Denver, and Blair stepped into the spot- light, finishing second in the 220, and forcing winner Rod Richard of UCLA to a new record of :21.0. Blair was clocked in :21.1, six-tenths of a second faster than he had run a week earlier. Other Kansans who finished in the money in- cluded Nieder, who was third in the shot, Frame, who was fifth in the three-mile, and freshman Kent Floerke, who was third in the hop-step and jump, clearing 48 feet, five inches. As a result of their showings at Los Angeles, Bitner, Nieder, and Frame were selected to the NCAA All-American track squad. Blair was chosen for a team of American track stars who toured Europe during the summer, and the slender senior compiled a fine record abroad. This fall, Coach Easton ' s cross-country squad gained its ninth consecutive Big Seven title. Frame led the way, finishing the three mile Iowa State course in the time of 1 5 :10.1. The cross-country team has also posted an un- defeated mark in dual meets. 04) Bill Nieder sets a new Big Seven record. I 84 Les Bitner rewrites the NCAA record book. Way out ahead, Dick Blair.

FALL PHOTOGRAPH AUTUMN blew in for an appointment with Hurricane Connie, and an accidental clash with her sister, Diane, who left a legacy of grim damage in the East, already panting from a torrid summer and making preparations for the meeting of the General Assembly. The French made news as they walked out of the UN in a protest, as Faure back home gathered the rags of his majority about him and urged the sensi- tive French Assembly to give Morocco repre- sentative government to cut down gunfire with the Berbers. Also in Europe, Adenauer visited Moscow and, it is hoped, made the Russians realize they were dealing with a sovereign, pow- erful Germany. Sweden ended liquor rationing, after a governmental campaign for temperance to prevent a national binge. In. this hemisphere, it seems certain at this writing that Kubitschek will win the Brazilian election. Argentina ' s Juan Domingo Peron, suf- fering from fewer deep-seated convictions than ever, fled to exile, as General Lonardi, the new President, was quickly recognized by the U. S. Times in general seemed to be bad for dictators. MacArthur announced that he had no part in the Yalta decisions, although he says he did urge Russian entry in the early stage of the war. In communist China, the people ' s courts took a hankering to stop counter-revolutionaries, and since two Christmases ago have handled more than 363,000 cases. The Soviets continued to offer arms to the Arab states while breathing peace slogans and basking in the fact that there are almost 20 million card-carrying party mem- bers. Thailand ' s Pibulsonggram returned from the U. S. and stated that graft is bad form and must go, and the West cheered. Death paced its indelible steps in. the Gaza strip, Morocco, Algeria, the Sudan, Malaya and Laos; while in the Indonesian elections, the Moslems temporarily got the upper hand over the co mmunists. Mean- while, in the spirit of Geneva, Soviet arms were being offered to Egypt. 86 World University Service took action at Hel- sinki not to admit the International Union of Students, a communist sponsored organization. Princess Margaret moved in regal silence as the women ' s world whispered and guessed about her hopes and plans, while scientific circles con- ceded that Russia is now in the lead in the driv- ing race in atomic glue. In Pretoria, South Africa, 100 witch doctors held a conference and agreed on a five-year apprenticeship for trainees, and talked about founding a university to help get rid of quacks. In Arabia, Great Britain and Saudi Arabia ire having a war over oil, and the British report that American oil prospectors in the company of Saudi-Arabian soldiers met a British official escorted by troops of the Bedouin Legion, were asked to withdraw, and did. It is rumored that the world ' s greatest pool of oil is there under the desert ' s fickle boundaries. These borders seem to cause cramps on all sides. In the whimsical world of finance, the Bonn government in Germany states that the over- heated economy may flare up. There ' s a de- plorable state of full-capacity operation, wit- nessed by occupied shipyards, unfilled orders, a shrinking labor pool, with a pinch felt in capital goods. Imports are booming, less credit is being created and the communists, they of the invisible hand with the personal touch, have started a technique of circulating tailor-made newspapers in. industrial, plants. In the U. S., business activity is still riding on a wave of fortune, and people are engaged in a spending spree, with all groups joining in the whirl, while department stores expect the big- gest volume of Christmas trade ever. Tourists came back after an Italy rage, and their nostalgia was matched only by the Italians ' pros- perity. Along with the current rediscovery of Jane Austen and F. Scott Fitzgerald in the literary world, four of Fitzgerald ' s little known short stories have been converted into The Young and. Beautiful which is a hit on Broad- way, along with Tiger at the Gates by Jean Giraudoux, Arthur Miller ' s A View From the Bridge and the most rocking drama in years, The Diary of Anne Frank which retells the dismal story of Nazi camps. How- ever, it might behoove us to remember that our own prisoner of war camps became more rigid, although we were never in the same league with the Germans, aft er the Nazi menace was wiped out and we had no further need for reciprocal fair treatment. Eisenhower ' s heart attack shocked the nation, which promptly lost confi- dence, and whose apprehension was quickly ob- servable down In The Street, where industrials, a reflexion of the psyche of the American people, dropped 31.89 points, approaching the record 38.33 plunge on October 28, 1929. Harry Truman ' s memoirs are appearing in Life, for heaven ' s sake, and a bloody labor fight is going on in Indiana as the labor forces try desperately to shut down an embattled foundry. Recent word has it that transcontinental air services will make it from Los Angeles to New York in 41 2 hours, America has countered the school crisis with confidence, holding classes in tents, and the World Series distracted the masculine mind for seven days until the Dodgers finally won the pennant as Brooklyn went mad. In Kansas, where Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Lease once advised us to raise less corn and more Hell, although old-timers complained that with the 4% drop in farm income in nine months, Three out of two are on relief, enough of the citizens philosophically pulled in their belts sufficiently to keep up our spectacular college education rate, and Fred Hall continued to be the man of the hour in the capital as he poured the concrete for the new Turnpike which is cutting into some of the natives ' feelings and real estate, while law suits keep rolling in. Kansas City whooped it up for another American Royal, and Eddie Fisher got a big grin from the audience as he sang You Gotta Have Heart, and later crowned the Queen. Some ad libber, he! Lawrence had the bad luck to see a third church burn, and to witness the departure of John Ise and the death of his son. In a short space of time, five professors passed away, hard blows to even our big shouldered university. Lovely songs counterpointed student chatter in the Union, which captured a note of high fash- ion, and where students coffeed incessantly, due either to the temporary absence of a clock or else to the strange new decor, while they listened to Autumn Leaves, Love Is a Many Splendored Thing, and The Longest Walk, as they talked with a brilliant foreign student or a new student from No Function Junction. They talked about Professor Carlyle Smith ' s trip to the Far East, the NSA, Gertrude Sellards Pearson Hall where the new counselors quietly took their posts while the new blood of KU surged in and out, Carruth-O ' Leary Hall, or about Squat, the campus humor magazine which made its debut this fall. The Ivy League Influence in men ' s fashions can be seen as the crew-necked sweater and pleatless trousers hulk down the campus, and khakis or buckled britches are practically re- placing the timeless jeans. Girls are wearing their hair longer, and those who can get away with it have theirs dripping all around the face. The windblown look has be- come abandoned. Laundry bills soar as more blouses are worn, plastic shoes draw stares, and more ladies ankle about in heels like knitting needles. Waistlines are often extinct or at best a trifle elusive. Suits this year have all the per- suasive grace of a straight edge, as jackets streak vertically from the shoulder. A lot of the talk was about the new students, who are actually the most important and funda- mental thing that has happened here in Law- rence. The Jayhawker staff hopes you ' ll have a good life here and that you ' ll enjoy your campus as you take over the hill while this fall photo- graph blows on into winter. oss Dougherty 87 Fourth for Bridge?

If we just wanted to talk over a glass of beer or cup of coffee, the Stables was the place for us. Here relaxed in the dimness of a leather booth thoughts of next week ' s hour exam floated out the window as we talked about everything from politics to Ivy League pants to Professor So-and-So. If we wanted more laughter, more noise, more party and we felt that there was dancin ' in those feet we turned the car toward Highway 10 and the Dine-A-Mite or across the bridge and out to the Flamingo. Here there were smoke, laughter, and much good times. We managed to fight our way through the dancers and spot somebody we knew; then we could find two chairs, join the party, order a hamburger or a Bud, and then romp an ' stomp with Bill Haley, or just dance soft and slow to Kenton or Shearing. 3 . . .

There were other things to do besides these though—you ' ll remember. There was bowling in the Union or chess or bridge or table tennis, and out on the highway there was miniature golf and a driving range. In the winter there was skating on Potter ' s Lake or tobogganing. There also were those evenings that you just sat and looked at the reflection of the campanile in Potter ' s Lake from Zone A. A night out didn ' t always mean dancing or,a movie, for always and always there were the library and study dates which are unique to the college atmosphere. Here even on the weekends students could be found poring over books and notebooks and more books getting ready for the hour exam, the expected shotgun, or simply do- ing assignments. In the silence learning was achieved, facts registered, and the thoughts of others and the lessons they had learned came alive. After studying it was coffee time and you walked over to the Union and then down to the Hawk ' s Nest. If the night was nice, you could walk home. If your route took you down Jayhawk Drive, there was nothing but your voice and the voice of the person walking beside you to break the silence that had settled on the campus after the five o ' clock whistle sounded its last note. We ' ll remember all these things whenever we think of college and the nights we laughed and danced away there. We ' ll think, How could I ever have done all those crazy things? , and then a memory and a thought later we ' ll smile to our- selves and think But I did do them and it was fun. Then the memories will start rushing back and we ' ll turn to the person next to us—maybe it ' s the same person we used to walk home with from the library—and we ' ll say, Dear, do you remember the night when ... And then—a kiss goodnight by the Campanile. 104 Rock Chalk, Jayhawk, K Front Row: Ann Rumsey, Mary Anne Tinkler, Pat Pierson, Tinker Marcum, Judy Tiderman.

This new sport was en- thusiastically received by the students, but the cheering which rang from the south stands of the field was highly unorganized. KU did have a yell though. It was the Rock Chalk yell which some members of the Biology Club had devised five years earlier. The form of the Rock Chalk was kicked around a lot in the ' 90 ' s varying from a staccato Rah, Rah, Jayhawk, KSU, to an elaborate: Mush and milk and sunflower seed, That ' s the stuff on which we feed. We ' re the hot stuff of creation, We ' re the Kansas aggregation. Jack take a bite. Jill take a chew. Rock Chalk, Jayhawk, KSU. By 1909, KU cheerleaders had appeared on the scene and were directing the efforts of the thundering thousand at McCook Field. Although the cheerleaders are the most spec- tacialar part of the pep organizations, their his- tory is obscure. A Ralph Spotts is mentioned in 1910 newspapers as being the cheerleader. Prob- ably he was chosen shortly before this time. A good guess would be that he was elected at a pep assembly of the students either during or a year after the all-victorious 1908 football season. It was Spotts who coined the phrase, thundering thousand, which was used for many years to characterize the KU fans. He also led a boost- er ' s club among the students. However, this club died after Spotts was graduated. The next step in the evolution of the pep or- ganization took place in 1919. That year two 105 students, C. C. Carl and Bob Rowland by name, put on a medicine show as a pep rally before the Missouri game, the second Homecoming. Doc Yak, their medicine man, stayed on the campus only a few years, but another idea of these two has been a lasting one. With the Oklahoma fans who visited Mt. Oread on one October Saturday, a few weeks before the Missouri tilt, was a pep club known as the Razzers. Carl and Rowland were im- pressed by this organization and decided that Kansas should have a similar one. They spread their idea so well that one hundred men met a few days before homecoming to organize a pep club and prepare some half-time stunts for the game. When the game started, the members of 106 this newly formed Ku Ku Klan were very no- ticeable in their white shirts, red sashes, and blue turbans. However, they had chosen a name too similar to the Ku Klux Klan. No matter how many stunts they put on at the games or how much time they spent selling concessions to pro- vide fruit for the team, they were at first clas- sified as troublemakers. The name of the group had been shortened to Ku Ku ' s by 1923 when it became the first chapter of a national honorary fraternity of pep clubs, Pi Epsilon Pi. Also that year, the need for a women ' s cheer- ing organization was fulfilled. A few students met in the basement of the Theta house in. No- vember of 1923 to found the Jay Janes.

Senior Day at the Oklahoma A M game. club made its first appearance on the Wednes- day night before the Homecoming game with Missouri. On that evening the fifty-two char- ter members of the Jay Janes took part in a torchlight parade while wearing a costume sim- ilar to their present one. Then, as now, they took part in many campus service projects in addition to their enthusiastic support of the school teams. The Jay Janes helped found a na- tional organization similar to that to which the Ku Ku ' s belong. They were among the charter members when Phi Sigma Chi was begun in 1933. The cheering sections of these two clubs were combined in 1925. The Rock Chalk yell had been developed into its present chanting form by this time, but other suitable cheers were scarce. The Jay Janes sponsored a contest among the KU students in 1927 to correct this situation. The three best cheers submitted to the contest were selected for use at games. These first few years of the twenties were a definite time of re-birth of school spirit. In ad- dition to the two pep clubs, a couple of tradi- tions date their present form to this period. The fight song Jay Jay Jayhawk was written in 1920. It was written by a graduate of the class of 1912, George Bowles. Two years later, a cou- ple of sophomores, James O ' Byron and George Hollingbery, designed the ancestor of the pres- ent-day Jayhawk.

A series of legends about the mythical bird, terming it half jay and half hawk, had been begun. It was supposed to be invisible except for special occasions such as Coronado ' s visit to Kan- sas or the game with the Missouri Tigers. How- ever, no one was certain what its true appear- ance was when it was visible. The bird had changed shape as fast as artists were graduated from KU. When the Nebraska game approached in 1922, the students planned a caravan of cars to carry them to Lincoln. Show them you ' re Jayhawks, even if you have to paint it on your windshields, one cheerleader exhorted. This is just what O ' Byron and Hollingbery did. They designed a figure which was not as comical as its predecessors had been and which displayed the confidence and power that the creators envis- ioned in the school symbol. Since the time that these two painted Jayhawks on windshields, the Jayhawk has undergone several refinements, none of which were so drastic as the one in 1922. For the next twenty years no great change took place in the organization or activities of 108 44, cr„„ evIr$ v 48 v • e a VT7 i7 cPa 40 vm clay e 41V A.9 eV ,SCO`I V V V 41, le vl $17 44 0.4 et • 1K76 v 0.4 aâ– P IP V ' CY 47 10`. vP %t4f-I Front Row: Carol Barber, Marcia Herrin, Marilyn Honderick, Carole Gooding, Jean Nickel (treasurer), Sharon Crawford (president), Nancy Johanning (vice president), Anne Hesse (secretary), Barbara Reinhardt, Ruth Palmgren, Marcie Opperman, Lucy Chamberlain.

In 1947, pressure arose for a freshman men ' s pep club. The Ku. Ku ' s agreed to sponsor such an organization. A freshman cap, one red and one blue sock, and either a red or a blue sweater were the early attire of a Froshawk member. With the Missouri game approaching again in November of 1949, the Jay Janes undertook to organize the freshmen women into their own pep club. The freshmen had previously been al- lowed a small representation in the Jay Janes, but there were far more freshmen than the Jay Janes could take within their club.

And the goal post stood. their appearance in the cheering section. Red sweaters and blue skirts have been standard dress for them from the first. Throughout the history of Kansas University athletics, other organizations have helped create school spirit. For instance, Sachem has charge of the tom-tom which symbolizes victory in the KU-MU tilt. This society kept the gilded foot- ball before the tom-tom and was instrumental in building the Rock Chalk Cairn. However, these four clubs, Ku Ku ' s, Jay Janes, Froshawks, and Red Peppers, have served under the leadership of the ever-present cheerleaders as a nucleus for KU rallies and cheering. 109 • Oklahoma JUST A WHISTLE STOP ON THE WAY TO MIAMI KANSAS surprised Oklahoma ' s national champi- ons by taking the opening kickoff and marching 71 yards for a touchdown and a 6-0 lead, but the mighty Sooners were too tough, and finally over- whelmed the Jayhawks, 44-6. Co-captain Dick Reich scored the KU touchdown on a 7-yard plunge over center. Oklahoma Coach Bud Wil- kinson used some 50 players in the game, and all hands performed well as the Sooners showed most observers why they were rated as the top team in the nation. Outstanding KU performers were quarterback Bev Buller, halfback Ralph Moody, Reich, and end Bill Bell. Kansas draws first blood as Boller hands off to Reich—Reich crosses the two-yard line—and scores! 110 Southern Methodist IT DOESN ' T PAY TO PLAY THE PONIES THE JAYHAWKS played a much heavier SMU team off its feet for 40 minutes before the flood gates opened and SMU halfback Don Mcllhen- ney poured through to spark a 33-14 victory for the ponies. McIlhenney scored four touchdowns in the game. The passing combination of Wally Strauch to Jim Letcavits accounted for both KU touchdowns. The second tally, and John Hand- ley ' s subsequent conversion, gave KU a 14-13 lead midway in the third quarter, but the heavier SMU line took its toll, and the Ponies ground out three touchdowns in the final 20 minutes. Kan- sas gained 182 yards by passing, but the rugged SMU line held the Jayhawks to minus 30 yards rushing. A near interception by KU. SMU scores! 111 ebraska WE COULDN ' T CHUCK THE COBS A LAST-DITCH KU rally fell short, and the Ne- braska Cornhuskers held on to an early lead to pick up a 19-14 victory over the Jayhawks. Quarterback Bev Buller and fullback Joe Held scored the KU touchdowns, but Nebraska scored too much too early and Kansas could never quite recover. Buller ' s touchdown in the second quar- ter pulled Kansas into a 7-6 lead, but Nebraska halfback Rex Fisher scored the first of two touchdowns moments later to give the Huskers a 12-7 advantage. Fisher scored again in the third period to make it 19-7, and KU could score only once more as Wally Strauch ' s last- ditch aerial effort was thwarted by the time clock.

Nothing went right for KU, as the Wildcats intercepted passes, recovered fumbles, and took advantage of every opportun- ity to pick up easy touchdowns. The hard- charging K-State line bottled up the KU run- ning attack, and so hindered the passing game that the Jayhawks failed to complete a single one of their 11 attempts. K-State recovered a pair of KU fumbles inside the KU 10-yard line and marched to a pair of easy touchdowns in the first quarter, and from that point on the game turned into a rout.

Kansas took the early lead on a 5 3-yard touchdown run by halfback John Francisco, but the Aggies came back late in the first half to take a 7-6 lead on Earl Luns- ford ' s plunge and Louie Flores ' conversion. Pres- ton started the second half and played the rest of the way, starring on both offense and defense. He completed three passes in four attempts, and finally scored the winning touchdown late in the fourth quarter on a one-yard plunge over center. The Jayhawks then stopped two late Aggie scor- ing threats, with Dick Blowey ' s fine tackle halt- ing one drive and a pass interception by Ralph Moody putting the game on ice. The Cowpokes are about to hobble a Jayhawk. KU intercepts. Missouri UNCLE CHUCK BAGS HIMSELF A TIGER THE JAYHAWKS delighted a homecoming crowd of 30,000 by containing Missouri ' s offense and out-charging the vaunted Tiger line to pick up a 13-7 victory in the final game of the season. Again it was reserve quarterback Dave Preston who sparked the Jayhawk victory, as he con- nected with end Lynn McCarthy for the win- ning touchdown late in the third quarter. Kansas took the opening kickoff and marched 85 yards for a touchdown, with a pass from Wally Strauch to John Francisco covering the final 15 yards. Handley booted the extra point. The drive was featured by the running of Dick Reich and the pass receiving of end Paul Smith. The Tigers retaliated in the second quarter with quar- terback Jim Hunter, probably the outstanding player on the field, sneaking over from the one. After KU bounced back to take the lead in the third quarter, the Jayhawk defense stopped two Missouri drives inside the KU 20 in the last quarter. Francisco gathers in the ball for a KU score. Hunter sneaks over from the one for an MU score. I Iomecoming ' 55 by Bill Witt THE DULL thud as a sweat-shirted, broad- shouldered football player collides for the last time with a canvas-stuffed tackle dummy; the deafening roar of 14,000 people watching a long-legged, seven-foot wonder cram his forty- second point through the nets at Allen Field House; the dazzling sparkle of a rhinestone crown placed on the head of a smiling co-ed from Russell; the thrill as a spiraling football nestles in the arms of a big, blue-shirted end for the winning touchdown; and the closing strains of Leap Frog by Les Brown and His Band of Renown from the Ballroom of the Union— all these were moments to remember ' from Homecoming at KU-1955. Old timers enjoying the festivities at their Alma Mater had to think back a long time to recall a more successful Homecoming than the 1955 edition. The weather was perfect—no rain, snow, or howling late fall winds. The decora- tions added their usual color and excitement to the scene and the Follies turned out to be one of the best student-faculty productions ever as- sembled for the big first-semester weekend. Best of all, however, was the athletic success by the men of the crimson and blue; a highly tout- ed freshman basketball squad excelling advance billing by upsetting a veteran varsity quintet; and the thrilling moments on the gridiron that Saturday afternoon as a determined group of young men proved that at last the jayhawkers were back on the way up as a feared football power in the Big Seven. But even overshadowing the glamor of the Jayhawkers ' triumph on the gridiron was the performance of another group of young men going through their paces on a hardwood court before 14,000 awed fans in Allen Fieldhouse. This was, of course, the performance of Coach Phog Allen ' s varsity basketballers in a pre- season preview game against Coach Dick Harp ' s freshman cagers. Always a traditional feature of the homecoming weekend, this game had been catapulted into national interest last spring when a seven-foot phenomenon from Philadelphia Reprinted by permission of TIME Magazine. named Wilton Chamberlain announced that he would grace the halls of Mt. Oread for the next four years. Billed as the most sought-after, publicized high school player in. U. S. history, Wilt, The Stilt, selected KU over one hundred other schools. As spring turned into summer and the vacation months gave way to fall and a new school year, Jayhawker fans waited patiently for their first opportunity to watch the skyscraping center in action. It is unlikely that ever again will there be a magnetic attraction to draw in 14,000 people for a freshman-varsity basketball game. However, this homecoming there was; and the near ca- pacity crowd that filled the fieldhouse saw what they were looking for: real promise that KU was again to be in the limelight as a national basket- ball power. Facing the upstart frosh was a well- The freshmen had their night. (Left) Don Smith crowns the queen.

Consequently, as always, hundreds of cars jammed the streets of Tennessee, Indiana, West Campus, and West Hills to witness the always-colorful house dec- orations and try to second guess a carload of in- dividuals who spent the entire evening deciding which houses would be surprised with trophies the following night. Decoration ideas were as varied as ever, ranging from a carrousel at one end of the campus to a used-car garage belong- ing to Uncle Chuck at the other end. Other scenes pictured a tiger being electrocuted, blown up by an atomic bomb, shot off on a rocket, caught in a web, being given the devil—in Hell, of course, and notified that time was running out. After a night of anxious waiting by many weary students, during the game Homecoming afternoon, decoration winners were announced. Pi Kappa Alpha and Alpha Phi took first in the fraternity and sorority divisions, respective- ly. Carruth-O ' Leary and Douthart Hall got the honors in the independent men ' s and women ' s divisions. In an attempt to bolster school spirit, a new tradition was added to the 1955 festivities—the Last Tackle. Ten senior varsity members ini- tiated the ceremony by individually tackling a training dummy—symbolic of the last tackle of each player ' s collegiate career. With all the color and excitement of many activities, there is perhaps nothing that con- tributes as much to a successful Homecoming as victory on the gridiron. For all KU ' ites, how- The Honor Guard forms an aisle for the Royal Party. ever, the fruits of victory in the team ' s 13 to 7 conquest of Missouri were especially sweet. The win marked the first homecoming victory for the men from Mt. Oread since 1951, and, equal- ly important, the Jayhawks ' first Big Seven vic- tory in over two years. In traditional style, Queen Marjorie Mahoney and her attendants were presented at halftime. Taking part in the ceremony were both the Uni- versity of Kansas and the University of Missouri bands, honor guard squads from all three KU ROTC units, and three Ford Thunderbirds. The climax to a big, wonderful, mixed-up weekend came a few hours after the final gun sounded the end of KU football for another year. Memorial Stadium—to which only half a day before, thirty thousand people had brought life and color—stood empty and alone, like a si- lent sentinel guarding the north end of Mt. Or- ead. The sounds of the milling throng filing out of the stadium and the final strains of the KU band playing a victory march were long dead echoes. Music was in the air, however, mu- sic from the Union ballroom where Les Brown ' s dance band was entertaining well over a thou- sand couples who were enjoying the final mo- ments to remember from Homecoming-1955.

Alpha Phi, 1st Kappa Sigma Carruth-O ' Leary, 1st Delta Gamma, 3rd Pi Kappa Alpha, 1st Gamma Phi Beta, 2nd Behind the Ivy by Dona Seacat FOR ALMOST three decades, University students have directed their steps up the worn marble stairs of Watson Library, through its wide door- ways, and into its many study rooms. Its thou- sands of books have been handled through and through by countless types of students — some eager to learn, others full of apathy towards the knowledge to be found in these walls. While some peruse the books with concentration and energy, others merely gaze out the tall windows of the building, oblivious to the changes evolving within. They are aware only of the massive stone building covered with ivy, which has housed the many volumes of information used at KU for the last 28 years. Throughout these 28 years, the exterior of Watson library has remained much the same; but its interior has seen some striking revisions and additions. Perhaps the most obvious change is found in what is now known as the Undergrad- uate Library. Until 1953, this section was a dull and dingy room about half as large as it is now and it was used only as a reading room. But the summer of 1953 found workmen tearing down partitions, building new bookshelves and paint- ing the walls in attractive colors. When the re- modeling and construction were completed, new tables and chairs were moved in and the room was transformed into a cheerful, comfortable and well-equipped study room. Air-conditioning was also installed, adding to the attraction of the room for summer study. This change in Watson library is a visible one, clearly seen and appreciated by the general pub- lic. Nevertheless, there have been other impor- tant transformations which are not so easily dis- cerned. For instance, a department of special collections was established whose chief function is to collect rare books and manuscripts. The members of this department, working with a great deal of speed and foresight, have increased the University ' s collection until it is now one of the finest in the nation. Actual book buying has also been greatly ex- panded in accordance with the academic curric- ulum and the combined needs of faculty and students. And how many members of this student body are aware of the fact that there is a vast amount of information contained on microfilm and filed in the library for use as needed? The purchase of this microfilm makes possible the acquisition of many rare and expensive books which other- wise would be impossible to obtain. Library officials are always eager to note sta- tistics regarding the use and circulation of books and other reference materials, and last year ' s fig- ures were most encouraging. There was a gain of in the amount of material used and ap- proximately 34 books were checked out for every student. In addition to the old books al- ready in the library, 45,000 new ones were ac- quired. All of these advancements are contrib- uting to the growth of the KU library as a cul- tural and intellectual center for the Midwest. This is one of Chancellor Murphy ' s prime goals and in his first speech to the students in the opening convocation, he said: The needs of this age require the ability to move on to a new dimension of thought. To have this capacity requires a knowledge of all the traditional virtues but above everything else it requires imagination. Through the library of this University, we are able to attain these qualities. 123 Alpha Chi Omega Front Row: Lynne Gaumer, Marcia Mills, Mary Ann Scramlin, Jan Williams, Sharon Dry, Miss Merle Munson, Pam Hutchinson, Eleanor Farley, Jill Gil- bert, Sandra Keller, Billie Bergen.

Certainly the suntanning business will be attested to by any West Hills male. We understand that this tan is shown off once a year when the curtain comes up on the Calendar Girl Parade during intermission of the Black Diamond Formal. (A party for jewels in the rough.) Other functions receiving top billing are the winter and spring formals and the Pledge Open House.

SMILING coyly across the street at the PiKA ' s, are the Alpha Omicron Pi ' s commonly known as the AOPi ' s. A bigger source of excitement at the AOPi house, however, is a sink-hole out in Wesf Hills that is the basement for their new house to be completed sometime next year. These girls participate in AWS, YWCA, SUA, CCUN, Jay Janes, Quill Club, and the University Players. Fran Smoley is exchange editor for campus filthy-mag, Squat, and Fran Todd stows the shekels for the campus political party, POGO, in her sock. If you happen walk by the house some night and see spots before your eyes, don ' t run to the doctor ! It ' s only the Polka Dot Party complete with men, women, and song, wine being outlawed at all the better schools of the state. If, however, you see pink elephants, better run to the nearest psychiatrist, because there are no elephants in the AOPi house, much less pink ones. Other blasts of the year include the Winter Formal and the Rose Dinner Dance. Alpha Phi THE LATEST addition to the West Hill chain of super markets is the Alpha Phi house. We aren ' t trying to say that the house looks like a grocery store, or that they have anything for sale in fact, but everyone will agree that it doesn ' t remind one of a rose-covered cottage. The inclined plane that leads to the front door more often serves as a trap to unknowing males who have pushed their luck in icy weather. Many have never been seen single again. When they can get out of their own driveway the girls slide along in all sorts of things such as Delta Phi Delta, CCUN, Sophomore Counselors, AWS, Education Club, Sigma Alpha Eta, Squat, Theta Sigma Phi, Tau Sigma, and Mortar Board. Some of the smoother girls are Margaret Donnelly who is vice president of Pan-Hell, Phyllis Carter, president of CCUN, Madeline Brite, copy editor for Squat and Assistant Managing Editor of the UDK, and Annette Luthy, who is on Mortar Board and the AWS Senate. The girls are also known for their Phi-fi-fo-fum Party which is enough to mix anyone up.

IT ' S NOT that the Chi O ' s are a bunch of squirrels, really they aren ' t, but they were mad hatters, worms, and March Hares in their skit Alice in TV Land given at the Student Union Carnival. The ladies must have fitted their parts quite well, though, because they pulled down a first place trophy. Actually, any resemblance to March Hares, worms, or queens is purely coincidental—well, this isn ' t quite true because the homecoming queen, Marge Mahoney, is a Chi 0. Another dirty jeans queen is Bev Jackson. Everyone knows Bev because she is vice president of ASC and a runner-up for senior queen. Gretchen Guinn, managing editor for the poor, near-sighted campus publication, the UDK, resides in the president ' s room on the second floor where she keeps an eye on everything. Two more gavel-wielding Chi O ' s are Dottie Sheets, presi- dent of AWS, and Peggy Whitney, president of the YWCA. Because they are a sociable group, their parties include the Pirate Party, the Christmas Buffet and the Bum-Bum Ball.

' We say rural-type house because the girls ob- ject to having it called a barn. These girls profess to hold softball, volleyball, and golf championships, as well as being active in ASC, AWS, POGO, WA A, Jay Janes, and having the only girl member of Sigma Tau. Installed in offices around the campus are Marge Heard, president of Mortar Board and editor of the Kansas Engineer, and Joan Sherar who is president of Pan-Hellenic. Last spring Lefty Lemon was chosen as the outstanding Tri-Delt in the United States. Annually, these girls have a semi-formal rural party, the Crescent Carnival. Other social events include Father ' s Weekend, Mother ' s Weekend, a Tree Trimming Party, and a Spring Formal. A sign of a true Tri-Delt is her Trident which serves not only for decoration, but has also proved to be a lethal weapon.

IF THE Dirty Girls are all wet it ' s not because they fell overboard from the good ship Delta G, but because of the DU ' s who regularly douse them down in sprinkling parties out on the lawn. Most of the time the ship floats on a level keel, putting into port for various hon- ors and such activities as the Jayhawker, SUA, Quill Club, ASC, Cam- pus Chest Steering Committee, WAA, Tau Sigma, Quack Club, AWS and student religious groups. Keeping the ship from going on the rocks are the helmsmen, Bev Harvey who lends a hand to Cosmopoli- tan Magazine and also is currently dubbed playwright by Bill Inge; Connie Cloyes who piloted the Homecoming Dance Committee this year and also serves as third mate on the Jayhawker staff-, and Jan Hartell, head navigator for the Greek Week Inter-Fraternity Sing. The good ship Delta G puts into port once a year for the Pinafore Party while the girls on board swab down the deck in the fall for the Night Club Party, the Christmas formal and all the after hours parties the Captain will allow. Douthart PROBABLY one of the better hitters in this here league is Mrs. W. S. Shaw, better known as Mother Pat, the Douthart housemother. Bat- ting clean-up for the girls, she is set on keeping her 1.000 batting average and has a new bat, presented to her by the Douthart girls at their Christmas Party. This stands as an open warning to all who are after girls or trophies. The trophies include one for Homecoming dec- orations last year and has been the prey of trophy thieves all fall, and a first place trophy for this year which is being guarded much more carefully. Girls who are heavy hitters on the hill include Mary Snowday, who carries a Phi Beta Kappa key and is a member of the YWCA cabinet; Wanda Welliver, ASC House of Representatives; Betty Jo Davis, ISA secretary; and Betty Gross, who coaches the Math Club. Other girls go to bat for Spanish Club, Chemistry Club, Jay Janes, ISA, Tau Sigma, Quack Club, Mu Phi Epsilon, and Theta Sigma Phi.

JUST because the Gamma Phi ' s have a crescent on their pledge pin, it doesn ' t mean that they have a half moon over the front door. What we are trying to say is that their house isn ' t comp letely out of it. In fact we have it by good authority that they have completely modern indoor plumbing. A perpetual hotbed of activity, the G Phi ' s busted out with explosive, to say the least, homecoming decorations. The rest of the year the girls go smoldering around in all sorts of activ ities. One glowing ember which can be seen dancing around at the ball games is Mary Anne Tinkler, cheerleader and president of the Quack Club. No flash in the pan is Shirley Lytle who sparks many Univer- sity Players productions as well as being gavel swinger. Janis Johan- son keeps things warm around KDGU being manager of the poor man ' s WHB. Others brighten the corners of ASC, YWCA, Mortar Board, Jayhawker staff, State Wide Activities, and Mu Phi.

STILL in the proverbial diaper stage, not on the Hill a full year yet, Grace Pearson is making herself known like any squalling brat. Al- ready, several males have discovered that girls live there. This usually leads into something to yell about. For one thing, the girls have had finalists for both Carruth-O ' Leary and Homecoming queens, all of which tends to uphold the idea that they are girls, if nothing more. Other members of the infant organization, such as Maureen Harris who is vice president of Pi Sigma Alpha and both Shirley Jones and Grace Favors who handle the publicity and write the checks for Gamma Al- pha Chi, make themselves known in Hill activities. Still others go bawling around in Beta Gamma Sigma, Sigma Alpha Eta, Phi Chi Theta, Mu Phi Epsilon, Theta Sigma Phi, Quack Club and Jay Janes. Just to prove that they are somewhat grown up, they have an annual Christmas Dance. -ace G.,•• So ea Residence halls feature spacious rooms, lux- urious beds, personal service.

For all of these many years, the poor ol d fellow has been watching these charming girls go past, and hasn ' t moved once. Now to most males, a Theta is a moving sight, but not to the pioneer. All of which goes to prove the old adage, You can fool some of the people all of the time and all of the people some of the time, but you can ' t ever fool a statue. The Thetas run around the campus like a bunch of chicks with their heads cut off trying to fool people, and in some cases they seem to. Barbara Hauck must have moved the judges deeply because she was Carnival Queen. Pete Doty fools around at the vice presidency of SUA, as well as heading the club. The two most moving girls are probably Tinker Marcum and Judy Tiderman, cheerleaders. Judy is also secretary of the ASC House.

Here, perched high on their hill of self-complacency, the girls survey their domain. If one can climb this hill and get through the front door, he may find that the girls are just about like any other group of the female sex; they have generally longer hair than boys, wear Bermuda shorts, and puff on filter tip cigarettes. At certain times during the year the Kappas tip- toe off their hill to take part in things on the bigger Hill. Although these visits are rare indeed, they are worthy of mention. Hitting the high key in Sigma Alpha Iota (honorary music fraternity) is Mary Jo Huyck, while Mary McCoy pounds the keys at the UDK as Managing Editor. Having just climbed the hill this fall, Sally Rice is president of Jr. Pan-Hell. Key girls amongs the fraternities are Jani Ijams, Sweetheart of Sigma Chi; Libbus Branine, DU trophy girl; and Hen- rietta Montgomery, Fiji Girl, while other Kappas have been attendants to Homecoming and Military Ball Queens.

UNDER THE thick coat of varnish which is characteristic of a Pi Phi, we find a human being. And what ' s more we find that the human being is a woman, or a lady, as they prefer to be called. We aren ' t trying to infer that the Pi Phi ' s aren ' t naturally polished, but it is agreed that they are a unique breed. They have a ski jump for a front walk which occasionally throws even the most seasoned Pi Phi. As far as that goes, their house reminds one of a pea green ski lodge. On the inside they have arrows on their chairs and drink coffee out of bitty cups. In spite of the hazards of being a Pi Phi, some still manage to get around. Barring broken noses the ladies pull down their share of queens, such as was the case this year with Senior queen, Military Ball queen and attendant to Homecoming queen. Others such as Jo Scholes, Rock Chalk director, Sandra James, secretary of ASC, Rosemary Ise, Phi Beta Kappa, and Joss Dougherty, Date Book editor, hobble into other activities.

THE FLOOD of 1951 is gone but not forgotten especially by the girls who live in Sellards. Several times this year the girls have found them- selves in deep water, but fortunately the water level has never risen too high to be put under control. As opposed to this, these maidens of mental manipulation have kept the grade level pretty high. We were also notified that this hall is surrounded by four men ' s houses. This seems to be one engulfing situation which the girls don ' t mind. When not fighting the floods of either water or men, they splash around in all sorts of activities. Numbering in this group are Watkins Scholars Coralyn Stayton and Barbara Bell, AWS member Doloris Al- pert, and Gamma Alpha Chi president Carol Saunders-White. Others of this group participate in Quack Club, Tau Sigma, Phi Lambda Theta, Forensic League, WAA, ISA, Mu Phil Epsilon, and Phi Chi Theta. A Fall Buffet, two formals and a picnic at Lake Tonganoxie round out the social side for these girls. Needless to say they don ' t have to look too far to find dates for these occasions.

THE Sigma Kappas are proba bly the only sorority girls on the Hill who have a board system. The girls explain that there is nothing like a good swat to broaden one. Actually the only time that paddles are brought to light is at the annual Paddle Party. We turn from the above mentioned paddles to those of a stern-wheeler on the ole man river and find ourselves in the proper setting for the Stephen Foster Tea. They claim that this is based on an old tradition and it may well be, for there are usually a few faculty fossils present for the undertaking. Other parties include the fall formal, Tree Trimming Party, Laven- der and Lace Dinner-dance, and the Valentine Party. Back to the boards, Julianne Keeter is a member of Mortar Board, Jo Ann Shay pounds the gavel of Radio and TV Players, and Eleanor Major is president of the Home Ec. Club.

Watkins Hall, that is . . . one looks in and sees forty-nine hard-working, studious, serious, scholas- tically-minded ladies, deeply engrossed in the pursuit of knowledge. Or so the story goes. But if you really want the inside, dope just open your eyes and you ' ll see what unserious scholars these gals really are. We catch their leading lady, Lee MacMorris, practising her lines for her next play. Remember the terrific performances she gave in Picnic and Gammer Gorton ' s Needle, and you know she cer- tainly hasn ' t been spending all her time in scholarly pursuits. As we remember their prexy also served half-baked potatoes to the scholar- ship committee when they were at the hall for dinner, we wonder how, if this gal can ' t even follow the simple directions in a cookbook, she manages to preside over meetings of the house, Quill Club or Wesley Foundation. When we see these gals swing into action at their annual Heaven and Hell Party, you must realize that the book- worm if it ever existed—has turned. You might even say it has gone to the devil.

They must be dying of old age, having been here and answering roll for over fifty years. We say that they ' re sick only because of observation. Night and day the Acacia Ambulance can be seen sitting on ready call in front of the house. It creeps around the hill picking up the brothers in distress. For ex- ample, it has taken them home from the Chalk which to some is a staggering distance. Not all the boys are down and out, though, for many of them can be found ambulating in such campus activities as POGO, ASC, SUA, Band, Sachem, KU Chorale, and KDGU. Help- ing to keep this year ' s football team alive is co-captain Ralph Moody; Jan Howell and Lowell Janzen serve as a real stimulus to the track team; Summerfield Scholars Clem Blakeslee, Lee Breckenridge, and Bob Masterson give the ol ' grade average a shot in the arm; and Jim Hamil doctors up the Jayhawker, doing the covers and illustrations. The Acacias really come to life four times a year when they hold the Gingham and Jeans Party, the Homecoming Pig Roast, Founders Day, and the Spring Formal.

For the third time, the brothers have traveled all the way to this great city to fill their pledge class. Boy what their summer rush trips must cost! It seems as though it would be more enjoyable to rush in Europe. The AEPi ' s say that the primary reason for a per- son coming to college is to get an education. This is probably why the brothers have only six major parties during the year. They include the annual French Party, semi-annual Installation Dinner Dance, Homecoming Party, New Year ' s Party and the Blue and Gold Formal. Not from Vera Cruz, in fact strictly from nowhere is Herb Horowitz. Well, maybe he ' s not from nowhere either, but Herb was known as a wheel on campus when only a sophomore and last spring was given the honor of being selected outstanding member of Alpha Epsilon Pi in the United States.

JusT because AKL is a house divided by Ohio doesn ' t mean that the boys are feuding all the time, yet a wise individual will still watch out for flying snowballs during the winter season. Four men, Pete Ar- rowsmith, Warren Gay, Tom Bath, and Jay Marks, are Summerfield scholars. The rumor is that Pete is helping to support his parents while going to school on a total of four scholarships. With these men and all the rest, the AKL ' s are trying to get out of second place on the scholarship list, which seems to be quite an undertaking. Glancing at activities, we find Karl Mecklenburg as secretary of Sigma Tau and vice-president of the Engineering Council, and various other men in the University Band and Orchestra, A Cappella Choir, Alpha Chi Sigma, Sigma Pi Sigma, Phi Mu, Phi Lambda Upsilon, Sigma Tau and most of the student religious groups. Finally, we see Chuck Elvin playing tackle for the freshman football team. The boys have a few parties during the year, too. The Laurel Fete, Spring Formal Dinner and dance is the most lavish. Others include the annual Hay- ride, the Christmas Formal and the Go-to-Hell-with-AKL Party, a cos- tumed affair, which needs little comment, we suppose.

FOUNDED at Cornell in 1906, these boys add a heartening note to the Christmas panorama with their vesper services, given this year at St. Luke ' s with the AKA ' s. They claim two Phi Beta Kappas, Richard McClain and Roger Youmans, and are represented in YMCA by Ralph Jones who was also a spark in one of the recent student coun- cils. Churly Clowers is in AGI; Jerry Johnson is a seed of promise on the freshman basketball squad; and anybody who can tell eight to the bar from a minuet can appreciate their sparkling dancer, Manuel Jackson. He also performs at some of the best balling it up of the season, their Hallowe ' en Party, when they take a few moments of general whoop de doo. At the first snowflake, they hold a snow fight with the AKA ' s, the loser entertaining. A sweetheart is chosen at their Sweetheart Ball, and they function a little more staidly at their Founders ' Day Banquet. Next year they ' ll live where Monchonsia is now.

It ' s been rumored that they are drop- ping out of the Greek social world. In fact, they went Roman in last year ' s Rock Chalk and we understand that as a result of a communistic living program they are using a Russian theme for this year ' s skit. This may be reason enough to support the rumor that they have rushin ' hands and roamin ' fingers. Their American side is displayed by their house, styled in Middle American Nothing. The Continental French- man appears at their Apache party. Shorts from the Isle of Bermuda take over for the Blackfoot-Whitefoot party in conjunction with the men from the Snake House. This event is preceded by a rope pull. Pulling ropes or strings, and specifically purse strings on the Hill are Rich Billings, treasurer of the ASC; Jim Trombold, Sophomore Class president; and Jim Adam, general chairman of the Engineering Expo- sition. Dick Blowey won the Ormand Beach Trophy in football, while eight other athletics minded men from Tau Hut are trying to monop- olize the baseball team.

SINCE the girls moved out of Templin Hall the Battenfeld boys have been at a loss as to how to spend their long winter nights. In fact, we doubt if the old steam tunnel is used much anymore. It was sure nice while it lasted, we hear. The boys have come out of their tunnel for other reasons, however. For example, Perry Rashleigh is president of Rho Chi and a member of Sachem; Doug Lusk, who heads the house may be found gracing the halls of Sigma Gamma Epsilon; and Gail Harris, chairman of the Engineering Physics Department for the Engineering Exposition, tops a long list of honorary organizations. Others are to be found looking in on Tau Beta Pi, Sigma Pi Sigma, Owl Society, Sigma Tau, Air Force Drill Team, Sachem, Rho Chi, Band, AGI, and Sigma Gamma Epsilon. Just to prove that the boys have a social life other than the tunnel, the boys have parties above the ground too. Included in this list are the Gay Nineties Party, which will remind one of the good old days, and the Christmas Din- ner Dance which speaks for itself. ii Beta.

They are people who are born to be Betas and who go to Wooglin when they die. These boys have good voices and a unique call which sounds like Rah-kee. In casual translation this is something close to yes. Other substitutions in K. U. parlance are: roost for dorm, rug for desk, the office for the Mission and jug store is self- explanatory. Joe Muller will soon be seen stirring around for the Rock Chalk; Roger Brown and his lilting melodies provide music for the group; Don Johnston ' s known for his humorous chatter, John Simp- son hoists up the grade average with his membership in the business school ' s brain trust, and you ' ve seen Dallas Dobbs on the basketball court. Betas are represen ted in Sachem, Owl Society, and are noted for their group cohesion and forensic inclinations. The study hall must be a room of considerable comfort, because they ' re usually in the saddle as far as grade index goes.

Campus there is a club often referred to by those other than the brothers as the gas house gang. Although it ' s been rumored that they live in a filling station, you can ' t get any gas but you might pick up a little anti-freeze there. Annually the Five Scamps or some reasonable facsimile come to Lawrence to play for the Delta Chis and their guests. Every so often they have other get-togethers such as the Pledge Honeymoon Party, the Winter and Spring Formals, a costume party, and join with the Dells and DUs for the Three-D party. They lay claim to a fair slice of the K Club having lettermen in football, baseball, track and swimming. Bev Buller holds the Pensinger Trophy while the lesser athletes manage to field pretty good intramural squads. Sandwiched between parties and sports are activities with men in class offices, ASC, and Sachem. The Delta Chis claim Forrest Hog- lund, president of Sigma Tau and Senior Calendar editor; and Hank Wittenberg and his propaganda empire commonly known as the Jayhawker.

We aren ' t trying to say the Delts are cradle robbers, but you can draw your own conclusions. Just because the Delts wear a square pin doesn ' t mean they are all squares either. There are a few, as a matter of fact, who are pretty well rounded. Everyone knows Jim Miller, so we ' ll just let him pass, and if we were running we would probably have to let Al Frame pass too, for besides being president of the Senior Class, he is the Big Seven ' s leading dis- tance runner.

We have conclusive evidence, however, which disproves this statement. The president of Panhell is a Tri-Delt. Oh, well . . . Among the presidents who take an occasional meal with the brothers are Pat Little, Freshman Class; Jim Lowe, IFC; Jim Bussard, IFPC; Richard Shaw, Scabbard and Blade; Milan Hart, Scarab; and Martin Hanna, Owl Society. The DU ' s are sometimes referred to as the Sheiks of the West Hills Desert. We won ' t argue with this, but we do think their Two Yard Hop may lose some of its spice with the outlawing of cellophane. For those who don ' t understand, prior to this affair, each coed is given just two yards of material with which she must drape herself. Other parties are the Trophy Girl Formal and the 3-D party. The friendli- ness of the DU ' s may be illustrated by their circular driveway: you no sooner arrive than you find yourself going. To be more truthful, we admit the DU ' s are among the friendliest on the Hill. jolliffe JOLLIFFE HALL has been sliding down the14 .(1 for many years, but has yet to arrive on Fraternity Row.

Bill Allen is kept busy in Scabbard Blade, Sigma Tau and Alpha Chi Sigma; Tom Downs is in Phi Mu Alpha and Sigma Gamma Epsilon, while Bill Brigden plays around in the orchestra. They have four major functions during the year—a Halloween Party, Christmas and Spring Formals, and last, but not least, the frequent dismantling and rejuvenation of the old black monster upon which they cook. This is an event to which all look forward with anticipation, especially the freshmen. Front Row: Charles Rutledge, Harvey Brewster, Rich- ard Haines, James D. Kohlenberg, Porter Marshall, Kay Wm.

CLAIMING to have the largest fraternity house west of the Mississippi, this year the Kappa Sigs can be found living in the west wing of their pseudo English Tudor edifice. Livin g in an atmosphere of old English custom, these knights of West Hills ride off to class each morning waving as they pass the DG ' s and taking extra care to slow down in rainy weather so as not to splash them. Daily these twentieth century Sir Galahads gather at their round table to discuss crusades for campus conquests. At other times they can be found at the Stables but it ' s dubious if they ' re there to water the horses. Closer to home, the Red Dog Inn takes shape once a year as do other parties such as the Black and White Formal and the Stardust Ball. Found jousting on campus for positions are Bill Buck, president of SUA; Jack Aber- crombie, who wears a slide rule instead of a sword, presides over Sigma Gamma Tau; Bill Martin guards the coffers of the Jayhawker as Business Manager; and Bill Woods heads Alpha Kappa Psi. Court jester and campus spastic, Jerry Kindig, does his best to boost campus spirit.

Here we find a group that may annually suffer from schizophrenia. Most of the year they make a business of being schol- arly, but then one night a year they become criminals, and who are we to say what crimes they commit? We refer,to their Alphatraz party. On this occasion it is doubtful that you would recognize such people as Warren George of the ASC; Bill Littell, veep of the Junior Class; or Clifford Meyer, promotion manager for KDGU. In fact, it is even doubtful if the type of language being used would remind one of varsity debate, a sport in which many of the members participate. When returned to normal, other members of the club take part in Sig- ma Tau, Tau Beta Pi, Arnold Air Society, Pershing Rifles, Hawkwatch, Forensic, and other similar organizations. On more sane occasions they have a Winter Formal and White Rose dinner dance. Front Row: Wayne Wallace, Dick Walt, Alton Da- vies, Larry Mayer, Jim King, Phil Altimari, R. L.

This dorm is individualistically differentiated from the others by its red door. Be- hind this door unfold such fabulous fiascos as the frantic Formal Din- ner Dance which announces the arrival of spring, and the annual phrenetic Eccentric Escapade costume orgy. Fortunately, to save face, they have a few other house activities and Hill Hubs. Grant Cookson perches on a branch reserved for the Owl Society, and Bob Crisler smokes the peace pipe with members of Sachem. Gene Schmitz, through constant study of the animal life around Alumni Place (we include the members of Sellards in this fauna), became president of the Zoology Club. Running to keep ahead of his scrutiny are Grant Cookson and Bob Lewis, members of the KU track team. Aside from partying and getting around on the Hill, the guys at Pearson also find time and ath- letic prowess to be tops in many intramural contests. Phi De to Theta BOYS TOWN is not necessarily in Nebraska. In fact, we have it by good authority that it is on Edgehill Road here in Lawrence. For the few who don ' t understand, we are speaking of the half-timbered, half- stoned residence of the Phi Delts. In spite of its great number of members, we understand that there is a feeling of fellowship among the brothers who have met each other. Not only is Phi Delt excep- tional in size, but it is the only fraternity to give scholarships instead of pledge pins. And with so many members, they are bound to end up with a few in campus organizations other than Phi Delta Theta. We speak of such notables as George Sheldon, president of the ASC, Tom Phoenix of the student court, and Ted Ice, president of Young Republicans. The Phi Delts tell us that although they always rate with their grades, they are by no means drudges. To prove their point they have three parties: the annual Harvest Party, the Christmas For- mal, and the Southern Mess, which speaks for itself.

In fact, we have a KU chapter of the Fijis right here on the Hill. One might ex- pect such a group to be a savage bunch of head hunters. Well, they are. A Phi Gam co-heads the football team, and another heads the K-Club. Dick Blair is head of Sachem and captain of the track team, Gerald Rosenlund heads the Hawk Watch, not to mention Allen Sweeny who is head money squanderer for Squat and the Rock Chalk Review. The Fijis also dance around the camp fires of the student directory, Jayhawker, and have winning intramural teams. Not being head-shrinkers, we don ' t know for sure, but it may be that the Phi Gams are boys with suppressed desires. At any rate, something comes out once a year at the Fiji Island Party when all go native for a night. There may also be some savagery involved in the Pig Dinner, but it is encouraging to know that they are eating pigs and not one another.

EVER have a suppressed desire to go swimming with a bunch of fra- ternal goldfish? Would you like to live blocks from nowhere? Well, there is a place which offers both, and what more could a red blooded man want? (We could answer this but we might lose our jobs.) Anyhow it ' s the Phi Kappa house. Actually the boys have even more to offer in the way of better homes and gardens, for they have all sorts of flowering plants and sunken gardens. But who would want a floating garden anyway? Perhaps it ' s a good thing that the club is miles from nowhere from the tales of their parties. What fine young lady wouldn ' t be proud to tell her mother she had been to a Moon- shiner ' s Brawl or a Hoodlum Hop or a Snowflake Fling?

Not only did the Indiana Street tennis club lose its franchise to GSP enterprises, now the University is taking away their parking area as well. The Psis have been thinking of building a new house for years but now it looks as if they will have to invest in an underground garage and move them- selves in if the house happens to tumble under the strain of another shipwreck party which has strained many a timber in the old Lodge. Although shipwrecked, these boys never quite landed on the Fiji Islands but the Phi Gams do lend a hand once a year when they get together with the Phi Psis for the Jeff Duo. Not completely isolated, a few of the brothers have found their way onto campus. A few of the more hearty variety include Bob Riley, Big Seven tennis champ; Alex George of the Kansas City Athletics; and Leon Wells, high jump- er and aspiring broad jumper. Others have been found floating around in SUA, UDK, Alpha Kappa Psi, Tau Beta Pi, Owl Society, and the Relays Committee.

Phi Kappa Sigma NOT TO be found lounging i n the gutters, the Phi Kappa Sigmas are more frequently found in the sewers. At any rate they beckon their dates to a Sewers of Paris party once a year. If the Phi Kap ' s sewers are a very close relative to the real thing, which served as an ancient burial ground, it may explain the nickname Skulls which rests on the club. If this is true the Phi Kaps are probably the only house on or under the Hill with real dead skeletons in their closets. The broth- ers take part in all sorts of skull-duggery on the Hill, as well as things we can print. For example, there is Crandall Melia, General Chairman of Greek Week for the IFC, third time president of POGO, and member of the ASC. Another boy with more than a skull between his ears is Merril Jones, vice-president of the Student Engineering As- sociation, not to mention Patrick Allen, member o f the Squat ' s staff and campaign manager of POGO. At other times, when not having the Black and Gold Formal, the Phi Kap Dream Formal, or something else, the brothers bone ' ' up on their studies.

NESTLED snugly at 1332 Louisiana is the lodge of ol ' Phi Kappa and Tau social-type fraternity. The club recently purchased this fine piece of real estate from Alpha Phi sorority for girls. By pointing out the fact that they moved up the Hill we are in no way trying to imply that they are social climbers nor does the fact that their chapter letters Beta Theta look BO have any reflection on the brothers. A part time resident is John Nangle who lives there when he is not at the Dean of Men ' s office trying to keep Squat magazine from being banned from the campus. Phi Tau ' s Dick Fredrickson and Bob Badgley hold down the presidencies of Pi Tau Sigma and FBLA, respectively, honorary some-thing-or-others. As if this wasn ' t enough, Bob Lida and Paul Baker claim to be out for track. Other brothers foul up the band, Jay- hawker, class offices, POGO, UDK, and Delta Sigma Pi. In order to justify their title of social fraternity, they have parties. These include a very dry (no water) Waterfront Wobble, a Dream Girl formal, and others when enough brothers can get dates.

ACROSS the street and up the hill from the AOPi house, and along the most direct route from North College to ye olde campus, live a group of broad-minded boys known as the PiKA ' s. In addition to this, they are located immediately next door to the off campus Union. With all these advantages, it is no wonder that they throw some of the better brawls on campus, specifically, the Twelfth Street Brawl. They also have the dubious distinction of holding an annual kitchen crew home- coming. They pride themselves on their Dream Girl Formal; the ques- tion is, do they ever have nightmares ? This year their homecoming decorations, Voo Doo Mizzou, not only did the job, but they voo- dooed the judges into awarding the Pikes a first place trophy. Word has it that each boy has a picture of Uncle Torn Pendergast pinned on the wall which may explain their claim to four ASC seats. Not relying completely on voodoo, they materialized a sufficient number of votes to elect Norm Scott, who is past president of POGO, and heads this nucleus composed of Jack Brown, Clayton Durr and Ron Barta to the KU version of the United Nations.

WHEN one accepts a Sig Alph pin he is accepting the credit card to one of the better hotel systems in this part of the world. The local member of this chain is famous for its hotel parties. About mid- October it becomes the Royal Hawaiian, complete with palm fronds, grass huts, sea shells, and fish nets all for the annual. Hawaiian Luau, where the brothers go native with grass skirts and leg make-up. In the spring, The Hotel becomes the Hilton-Magnolia for the Plan- tation Weekend. Other SAE parties are the Casino Party and the Christmas Formal. Notables who winter at the local edifice are Lew Johnson, known for basketball prowess; man-about-campus Rollin Peschka, member of the Daily Kansan staff and SUA board; not to mention Ted Teichgraber, who directed Mike Grove in The Drunk- ard. Considering the fact that the boys live in a hotel, they become quite good friends in the course of four years. Sigma Chi JUST a few Cadillac lengths down the Hill from the Kappa house is the poor man ' s Santa Anita. Behind six crumbling pillars reside a group of bookies who call themselves the Sigma Chi ' s. Once a year they gather 300 campus fillies for Derby Day. In this meet the girls defend their respective stables in sporting events. Enshrined in the tack room of this establishment are Clyde Lovellette ' s bed and a copy of the Sweetheart of Sigma Chi illustrated by Milton Caniff. Some people say this is their only claim to fame. However, the paddock at this track is the home of three Sachem men and two Owl Society members. They have a permanent monopoly on Statewide Activities with Steve Schmidt as chairman, and other Sigs in appointive offices. Dave Horr tops the Forensic League and Dick Reynolds is Relays co-chairman. Handicaps are against the girls at the Barn Party where they eat, drink, and make merry on the hay. Things are more formal at other times for the Miami Triad party with the Betas and Phi Delts, and the Winter formal and Spring Sweetheart dance.

THEY SAY Snakes often inhabit deserted areas. Well, a deserted ex- governor ' s mansion in the far off wilds of West Hills is now the home of such as a group who are also known as the Sigma Nu ' s. In fact they are so far off in the woods, we understand that as a matter of convenience, many of them bring a box lunch with them to campus in the mornings. It ' s been rumored that they, like most other fra- ternities, are holding a second semester rush week due to the tolls taken on pledge classes here at Harvard-on-the-Kaw. Audaciously numbered among this band are Grant Napier, the Boss Tweed of cam- pus politics; Al Hyer, who is learning to be a capitalist as president of the Business School Association; and the Toe, Ted Rhode. Their parties include the Blackfoot-Whitefoot (or Be-Kind-to-ATO day !) ; the Hi-Rickety formal which is an all-school party with invitations; the White Rose formal in the spring, plus as many other parties as limits on cutting classes will allow. This last category includes regular Friday afternoon backyard blasts with the girls next door, complete with Hi-Fi.

DOWN on Tennessee Street at the southern-most tip of campus, you ' ll find the stamping grounds of one of the most black-hearted groups of knaves on this campus. This is not merely an assumption, but a fact, for they openly advertise it by wearing a black heart-shaped pin. An- nually they lure campus beauties to their Bowery Brawl under the pre- text that it is a costume party. At other times during the year, they hold their Pledge Formal, Winter Formal and the Golden Heart Ball. These men have infiltrated into campus organizations such as Pi Tau Sigma, Scabbard and Blade, ASCE, ASTE, Sigma Gamma Tau, Sigma Tau, and Tau Beta Pi. A few of the more notorious are Wil Larkin, past editor of the Jayhawker; C ollin McKinney who sneers at the ROTC band from his director ' s post; and Torn Bryan, villain of the University Players. They have men in all major varsity sports who are a menace to other Big Seven teams. One kind-hearted brother, how- ever, is Chris Divich who was elected LMOC and is letting the DG ' s keep his trophy. Sigma Pi Everyone gets into the act.

IN A typical white frame house at 1325 Tennessee live a group of very untypical white frame boys. Although these boys have never been up before the senator from Wisconsin, there is reason to believe that it has been an oversight. We are speaking of the Sigma. Pi ' s and the reason for doubting their loyalty, namely the Iron Curtain party. At other times during the year the boys at the Consulate become more of the true American type throwing the Orchi Formal and the Ern- erald Ball. Like the Phi Delts the Sigma i ' s feel a great deal of brotherhood between the brothers who know each other, and like the preceding group, they are bound to have a few boys in activities other than Sigma Pi. We are speaking of such men as John Bayles, rep- resentative to ATC and Jim Atkinson, president of UVO. This is not to say that the Sigma Pi ' s are honorable or believe in the honor sys- tem but like most students they leave the honor to the instructors and claim to have the system. All of which goes to prove they are a fra- ternity but on the other hand most sororities have a system and who are we to say they are virtuous ?

EATING a meal at Stephenson, as in any other scholarship dorm, where the residents take turns doing the cooking can be an interesting as well as rewarding situation. For example, one never knows what he might find being placed before him; everything on the plate may resemble a mass of charcoal due to someone ' s carelessness or on the other hand a delicious looking dessert topped with whipped cream may turn out to be dessert with shaving cream not by accident. However, we can say with certainty that no matter how good or bad the meals, the cooks have an unusual sense of job security. We don ' t know if the im- promptu cooking course is intended as such, but these boys should make good wives for the career type girl which is becoming so prevalent. When not garbed in an apron, certain of the Stephenson chefs turn their talents to the Hill. Cole Hendrix is chairman of the ASC social committee and David Lehman who is chief cook and bottle washer handles the house affairs on campus. Even though they are edging the Betas for the grades, the boys party too, their most unique ones being the Harvest Moon and Bayou Ball.

BEHIND the Grecian pillars on Tennessee Street, the gather an- nually to revive customs of the ancients at the Roman Holiday party, which amounts to a good excuse for dressing in a sheet, lolling on the deck, eating grapes, and making like a gladiator (within the boundaries of decency and the regulations of Dean Alderson ' s office). Other parties which provide the same general atmosphere are the Mardi Gras and the Hayride. For the more sophisticated moods, they struggle into tuxes for the Red Carnation Ball and the Spring Formal. Campus gladiators those that have fought their way to the top—include Bill Crow, treasurer of Sigma Gamma Epsilon and member of the Execu- tive Council of IFC; Larry Heil, associate editorial editor of the UDK and treasurer of Sigma Delta Chi; and Max Mardick, secretary of Tau Beta Pi and a member of the Engineering Council. Other organiza- tions invaded by Tekes are Scabbard and Blade, Kappa Alpha Mu, Sigma Tau, Alpha Kappa Psi, Delta Sigma Pi and Scarab.

FOUND at home in a large frame house styled in the mode of Law- rence, 1890, and located at the northernmost point of campus are a group of men who were at one time known as the Bogi. Of late, they have assumed the title of Theta Chi. Now the Theta Chis have been around for exactly one hundred years, but only recently did they dis- cover their chapter here at KU. We are not trying to say that this group is unheard from, for they do raise their voices in such organi- zations as SUA, KU Chorale, UDK, ASC and Sachem, while others sound off in the band. Most heard from on campus is Joe Steinbacher who held the reins of IFC and is vice president of Sachem. Probably well heard in the class room is Ray Berry who carries a Phi Beta Kappa key. Apparently they do try to keep any noise of wild parties from the dean of men for they annually lead their dates to the woods for the Bogus Brawl which we understand really isn ' t bogus, but definitely has all the aspects of a brawl. At other times they have more subdued social events such as the Christmas Formal and Dream Girl Spring Formal. Theta Chi Mother Carter celebrates her birthday with the boys at the Theta Chi House.

This is true only geographically speaking, since these boys are all in the KU do-it-yourself school and have little time for events social or cultural. Late study habits cause the Theta Taus to claim their house is well lit up, b 17ft others think that the Theta Taus themselves may be aglow. Their main cam- pus contribution last year was the artistic and aesthetic arrangement of 3,000 orange sticks which graced the entrance to the Engineering Ex- position. Although most of the Theta Taus spend their waking hours in Marvin or that group of huts behind it, a few go out long enough to participate in activities. Among these are Bob Pope, president pro tern of ASC Senate; Dale Trott, Sachem; Bill Franklin, president of the Engineering Council; and Eldon Benso, relays committee. They have 14 men paying dues to Sigma Tau, honorary engineering fra- ternity, and 6 in Tau Beta Pi, another club for the same dubious pur- pose.

Instead, they choose an unin- spired white and green box-like affair that was deserted by a bunch of Kats. Until this year they hadn ' t bothered to remodel any of the house including the sand boxes. This, after all their training in shop practice I, seems surprising. They claim there isn ' t a square in the house because they ' re all Triangles, but it seems some are wearing their pins under false pretenses. Nor do all tetrahedrons have sharp corners; there is a wheel or two in the bunch. Vince Golden is president of Tau Beta Pi, Don Pizinger, president of YMCA; and Ray Krahenbuhl, whose only claim to engineering fame is his position as president of the IFC and ASC seat. The only real reason this club exists is to win the KU Relays Parade Trophy. For this purpose they plan and plot all year and usually come in second or third. These trade school illiterates do take time out from float designing to hold a Winter and Spring formal and a costume affair in honor of their patron St. Pat.

Preparing for her future vocation, the 21-year old Topeka senior is serving her second year as a freshman dorm counselor. Very active in YWCA, Peggy is this year ' s president of the organization, following up her 1954 selec- tion as regional representative to the National Student Council of YM-YWCA, held at Delaware, Ohio. A Chi Omega, Peggy ' s other activities include Mortar Board, the International Club, and a position on the ASC National Student Association Committee. JOE STEINBACHER ' S principal extracurricular interest the past four years has been the Inter-Fraternity Council; for besides attendance as KU ' s representative at both the Pan- hellenic-IFC Big Seven Conference at Iowa State last Spring and the National IFC Conference at Philadelphia in the Fall of ' 54, Joe is past president, vice-president, and treasurer of KU ' s chapter of the Greek governing body. Other activities in which the Garnett senior is involved in- clude membership in the ASC Senate as well as -the chair- manship of that group ' s Charter Committee, the vice- presidency of Sachem, and active participation in POGO, including a previous one-semester term as treasurer. Be- lieving in the theory that a good Greek is an active Greek, Joe has been a mainspring in his fraternity ' s ad- ministration, being past president, vice-president, treas- urer, and rush chairman of Theta Chi. Incidentally, Joe is a marketing major in the School of Business. FROM the office of national vice president of AWS to the position of head cheerleader at KU spans quite a bit of territory, but for Pat Pierson it is all just a part of her busy career on Mt. Oread. Indicative of the popular Bur- lington, Kansas, co-ed ' s interests and abilities, she has been active since her freshman year in AWS and campus pep organizations. Pat attained regular cheerleader status her sophomore year as well as serving as veep of the AWS Senate. National AWS honors came during her junior year, and as a senior this brown-eyed elementary ed major is head cheerleader, vice president of Mortar Board, and chosen Senior Calendar Queen. Past vice president of. Pi Beta Phi and past president of Girls State Alumnae, her other activities include YWCA, SUA, and honor roll. 174 1 WHY A WELL-KNOWN man about campus from Wichita, Allen Sweeny has utilized several of his extra-curricular activ- ities in valuable vocational training. As a general business major, he is learning the ropes by serving as business man- ager of both the Rock Chalk Revue and the newest campus publication, Squat. Al has rounded out his activities sched- ule by keeping minutes for the IFC and serving on the Executive Council as well as being senior editor of the Jayhawker. This year ' s president as well as past secretary of Phi Gamma Delta, Al keeps pace with his outside activ- ities scholastically as shown by his honor roll status. He is also a member of two honorary organizations, Sachem and Alpha Kappa Psi. GENERALLY, being president of one organization is enough to keep any KU senior busy; but Mary Emily Parsons, never one to trifle with numbers, wields the gavel of three distinct groups—Watkins Hall, Wesley Foundation, and Quill. Club. Besides her tri-presidency, the black-haired former Wyandotte High School co-ed finds time to serve as chairman of the Book Display Committee for Religious Emphasis Week and to be service co-chairman of Mortar Board as well as put in over twenty hours a week working in the English Department. Scholastically, Emmy —an education major with emphasis on language arts—has made the honor roll every semester she ' s been in college. Noted for her sparkling personality and co-operative spirit, Mary Emily ' s future plans include teaching followed by Seminary training in Chicago in order to prepare for Wes- ley Foundation work in the Methodist Church. TAKING to heart his twin interests of engineering activities and Army ROTC, Dale Trott has risen to the top in both departments. General chairman of last spring ' s Engineer- ing Exposition, the Topeka senior is this year ' s Engineering School representative in the All Student Council Senate. An active member of both Sigma Tau and Tau Beta Pi as well as Sachem, Dale served as president of Tau Beta Pi last year. He is also past president and scribe of his fra- ternity, Theta Tau. Despite extracurriculars, though, Dale has kept his grade average above the minimum require- ments of his General Electric Scholarship and will gradu- ate with honors in Metallurgical. Engineering in June. As a Cadet-Major, Distinguished Military Student, and Scab- bard and Blade member of Army ROTC, Uncle Sam fig- ures to have considerable influence on Dale ' s future plans. Linda Rankin chats with dorm councilor, Ann Rumsey out the Daily Kansan, snapping pictures for local publications and hanging draperies. Organized houses on the Hill offer job op- portunities also. House managers and treasurers usually are paid a salary, and most houses employ students as waiters. A student in a house may take the responsibility of some concession such as cigarette machines or food service. He ' is paid a certain percentage of the income from the concession and in some cases earns as much as $40 a week. One group of students who are often not con- sidered to be employed but in reality are working students are the Scholarship Hall residents and students living in Co-ops, who, although-they Left: Gary Brabeck stops to make another laundry pickup.

North African investors feel skiddish, and their stocks on the Paris Bourse show a gravitational pull. France ' s blossoming economy may develop spots too, when the easy dollars quit coming. French army power is in North Africa, while other Frenchmen still fight the Berbers. They and the Arabs have revived the old cry, Maghreb meaning western lands, as they shrill that Morocco is not a French pro- tectorate. Commanding the Maghreb forces is Ben Bella, former Free French fighter. In Al- geria, French communists are catalysts for revolt promoted by Soviet Russia, aided by Czech gunsalesmen in Egypt. This helps eat away NATO ' s ground strength, already hurt by Dutch stalling, the loss of a Belgian division, and the fact that it may be before German reinforce- ments come. Soviet bombers can evade NATO ' s radar, so there ' s a need for a net clear across Europe. Mendes France is making another bid for power in France and the December 18 Saar election has had an international stalling effect. The main Italian problem is fuel. Italy ' s be- coming self-sufficient food-wise and one million tourists looked there for a cheap holiday in 1955. Italians don ' t feel their belated admission to the UN solv ed much, and Il Globo panned the idea. The labor problem in. Italy makes life difficult for 700 US firms. US financiers, however, are bidding into an industrial bank in Milan, where rents are penthouse high. Workers who vote right in Italy get bonuses, so management ' s power has the edge on the Communists. Interest charges are high, and prison ' s the penalty for default. Through Switzerland, Soviet block agents are paying top prices for copper wire, nickel, and cobalt. US duties of 35% dismay the Swiss who will counter with raises. Premier Nehru ' s neutrality looks questionable; Henry Kaiser is ahead of Russia in steel mill building and Khrushchev told India, Burma, and Afghanistan that Britain started World War II and that we ' re preparing number three. ,The punch line was that massive help up to their, ' last crust of bread was available. Berliners face a blockade. Moscow is saving German PW ' s for bargaining purposes. Ade- nauer ' s illness and the subsequent viscosity in governmental machinery bodes ill for Bonn after he leaves. Britain is losing to Germany in the European Market. Confidence in the pound ster- ling is rising, and after Khrushchev ' s remarks, England may withdraw her invitation to Soviet heads, and may up the ante to Asia along with the U.S. The Bri tish departure from the Suez created a niche for Russia, so U.S. may decrease pressure on key allies France, Britain and Hol- land to leave key areas. Scotland yard is blushing at the absence of secret files and diplomats Iur- gess and Maclean. ML-5, their secret service, and the foreign office are under fire, and the London Times opined a few hard words in the editorial, The Ostriches. Thailand feels it ' s next on Moscow ' s list, and from Bangkok word comes that their Navy couldn ' t keep the gulf clear of mines, so weary of waiting for U.S. aid, they ' re raising funds rather than risk division. Premier Nassar in Cairo explained the Egyptian arms deal by saying they waited three years for western help -while the West built up Israel, but after Israeli aggression on the Gaza strip they had to get arms where available. Some think this explanation a bit in- complete. Though the Russians got some cotton, a happy thought is that it would take Egyptian pilots a year to learn to fly the surplus soviet MIGs. Kaganovich is calling this the century of communist triumph. Their air strength by For- mosa rises as guerillas make gains in Southeast 182 Asia. Singapore would deprive us of a handy de- fense base. Soviet integrated exports have been agreed to as they cut into western markets. Small amounts of Communist Chinese exports, high in variety, are underselling the Japanese, with a good propaganda effect on Asia, and the Japan- ese are increasing their trade over the lower Soviet barriers. The Russians are dispersing their heavy industry, and a second center is forming near the Baltic. Communist China may be in the UN by 1957, though while sixteen other coun- tries came in, Soviet Russia kept out Japan. In the West ' s favor is the lining up of Iraq, Iran, Turkey, and Pakistan in the Bagdad pact against Soviet aggression. In the oil race, the West ' s lead is increasing, and U.S. oilmen have concessions in Yemen and Jordan. Officials in labor tight Holland are encourag- ing immigration to keep up a quota which may be too small when war babies reach working age. Interest rates there are lowest in. Europe and in half of 1955, seven international issues were sold in Amsterdam, one for sterling. In the U.S., personal debt is now $2,512 per family, and a moderate decline in business is ex- pected in the spring and summer. The political plan is to make sure any setback does not hit at election time. Odds are 6-4 that Eisenhower won ' t run, but he probably won ' t commit him- self before March 1, reason being that party dis- cipline may disintegrate if it ' s known he ' s not running. In the economic future, no tax cut seems like- ly, Congress may come up with a retirement plan. for doctors and lawyers, and the southern segre- gation issue and the religious one in the North may complicate federal school aid. Farming will remain the disabled part of the economy, resi- dential building will drop, inventories will grow, and food may be a little cheaper. The AFL-CIO merger will add power to organized labor, and if proposed seniority gets common, younger workers may suffer. The American way of everybody owning a slice of his neighbor is more common, and people are spending at a faster rate than their income rise. The next tariff fight in Congress will cen- ter on import quotas and not tariff rates. Really pushing in the big log roll will be manufacturers of bicycles, watches, and pottery. Disaster hit California with Christmas floods, a holiday freeze blackened the holly berries, and somebody noticed the Olympic oysters are dying out. Hollywood ' s Grace Kelly ' s engagement to Monaco ' s eligible prince was announced and Princess Margaret decided not to marry Captain Townsend. A colored boy in Mississippi was kidnapped and slain while the South looked on. The Ford Foundation unexpectedly handed out money to colleges of liberal arts and to hospitals. Oklahoma tromped. Maryland in the Orange Bowl, and Sugar Ray Robinson knocked out Bobo Olson and got his crown back. A study from industrial executives ' reports shows that the biggest drawbacks to getting ahead come from difficulties in math and Eng- lish, but more jobs will be available than in re- cent years for graduates. Dr. Alexander D. Lang- muit says single shots of Salk vaccine provide substantial protection. Kansas-wise, Alf Landon put in a plug for Fred Hall in the national political theater, and Phog Allen was threatened with a libel suit but dismissed it by saying, If a postman kicked at every little dog that barked, he never would get his mail delivered. We took second place in the Big Seven Christmas Tournament, the ASC voted to join NSA, and we have put down our goat- skins and steeled ourselves with the Union re- bates to face a few days of the cloistered life of final week. We hope to survive to see spring semester with its perspective shifting impacts and new hopes, for high noon of the year is call- ing us. Fir Joss Dougherty 183 For Books, Supplies, K.U.

I wish we had more party pictures to choose from. . . . . Go have a party! . . . . Do you think this looks all right? . . . . and so it goes, through the day, into the night, and sometimes all night. The Jayhawker staff is a bizarre group of individuals few of whom even claim any journalistic talent. However, when they work together, they aren ' t individuals, but one body with the feelings and emotions of an individual. There is some sort of inherent spirit in the atmosphere around the cubicle at on Activity Row which gives Top: Joss Dougherty, Associate Editor; Connie Cloyes, Associate Editor.

Naturally there are heartbreaks, when something doesn ' t turn out as it should. There are times when it doesn ' t seem possible to spend another minute but then someone almost inevitably makes a slip of the tongue, a roar of laughter ensues and the tension is broken for another spell. Whatever is said, how- ever, rarely interrupts the normal flow of business whether it be the sale of a book or the intricate financial juggling necessary for a trip to the Hawks Nest. This is the way of life on the Jayhawker. Those of you who have wandered through the portals of Activity Row on the way to the Hawks Nest may have paused before the window of the jayhawker office long enough to read several bits of wit and philosophy, one of which states If you can keep your head while others are Top: Jane Johnson, Index Editor; John Nangle, Art Editor.

These words are far truer than they may sound, for the intricacies involved in pro- ducing the jayhawker are understood by very few—including the staff. This past fall found a relatively inexperienced staff starting on the long and tedious task of production. Henry (Hank) Wittenberg retires as editor this spring and graduates from the School of Pharmacy. He has made his presence felt in his fraternity, Delta Chi, where he was correspond- ing and recording secretary; and in the ASC where he served in the Senate, on the Executive Council, and the elections committee. He has also been president of Kappa Psi pharmaceutical fraternity, vice president of POGO political party, business manager of the K-Book and a member of Sachem. Shouldering almost more than his share of the load this year was Bill Jackson, assistant editor and head photographer. When Hank wasn ' t around, Bill took it upon himself to keep things running smoothly. Perhaps no one but the editor knows more about the intricacies and facets of Jayhawker production than Bill, who has han- dled every phase of production. Always around when a subtle bit of something was needed, associate editor Joss Dougherty will probably be remembered most for her Seasons Photographs. Joss is well equipped to do almost anything as shown by her K-Book editorship and Mortar Board membership. Associate editor Connie Cloyes has always been on hand to see that copy was correct and that things generally were in running order. Elsewhere on campus, Connie has served as Chairman of the Homecoming dance, on the ASC Traditions committee and as president of Delta Gamma. An up and coming young Sigma Nu who has been a strong asset to the staff is Park McGee. Aside from serving as copy editor, Park has also tried his hand quite successfully as a writer. When not slaving for the book he finds time enough to be a Summer field Scholar. Misplaced SQUATter on the staff, often seen with a white pipe in his mouth, is art editor John Nangle. John, who graduates this spring in fine arts, has also been active in such campus organ- izations as ASC and IFC as well. as being the originator and editor of Squat magazine. In a school such as KU, sports play an im- portant part, thus the sports editor of the Jay- hawker has the problem of preserving the record of the Crimson and Blue. Dick Walt is the boy who does just this. Dick is even better known for his work on the Daily Kansan where he has served as sports editor as well as editorial editor. Dona Seacat has risen in the ranks of the Jay- hawker staff through diligent and effective work. Dona has written several articles for the book and presently holds the position of organ=- izations editor. Given the task of Jayhawker senior editor, Al Sweeny has also served on campus as business 198 manager for both. Squat and the Rock Chalk Revue. Jane Hill ' s busy-work on the book con- sisted of being party picture editor for the first two issues. Jane left us at the semester to finish her OT degree at the Med Center and Sandra James stepped into the position for the last two issues. Ever wonder how your name got in the back of the book telling you that your picture was on page 69? It wasn ' t easy; just ask Edwina Frowerk or Janie Johnson. This task involves a very intricate filing system and long hours of patient work. Probably the most talented young man on the staff is Jim Hamil whose illustrations have in- deed enhanced the beauty of the book. The other half of the Jayhawker household is run by Bill Martin. As business manager of the book, it is his duty to try to keep sales in line with the money squandering policy of the pro- duction staff. No small task, this involves the sale of advertising space as well as the book itself. Bill is well qualified, being a member of Alpha Kappa Psi business fraternity and Senior Council member of Kappa Sigma. He is a regular NROTC student where he is Company Petty Officer and also a member of Scabbard and Blade. Right hand man to Bill Martin is Gordon Arbuckle, assistant business manager. In addi- tion to helping Bill, Gordon has the pleasant job of trying to keep the secretaries happy along with co-ordinating their activities. Co-workers on the advertising team are Bill Lindsay and Bill Oliver. These young gentlemen take it upon themselves to harass the local mer- chants into advertising in the book, and do a pretty good job of it too. Space limitations make it impossible to name and discuss all of those to whom we are indebted for the gems of wit and literature that appear within these pages, but it would seem fitting to express our gratitude to those who spend so much time and energy for no more credit than that of a by-line. Without the writing staff the book would be but a shell. Finally, much credit is due the secretaries. Without these girls, the book could not function. Even if these charming lasses hadn ' t typed let- ters, sold books, checked copy, addressed en- Staff Writers: Crandall Melia, Joan Sherar, Marcia Met- calf, Jerry Glover, Bill Witt, and Shirley Ward.

The individuals who put out the rag, as John Herrington — alias Oh, Well — fondly calls the UDK, compose the Kansan Staff. These people are usually considered to be terrible ghouls or those crazy people, depending on momentary sentiment and recent Kansan articles. The newsroom and business office are the homes of the news side and ad side. In these places the members of the Kansan staff spend most of their time, writing stories or laying out ads during any hour of the day or night. The newsroom, in the hours before the paper goes to press, is filled with people and confusion. The work is all part of the life of the people of the UDK and from it comes an esprit de corps that is found in few other places on the campus. This feeling manifests itself in the sick, really sick feeling, everyone gets when one staff mem- ber doesn ' t get the facts straight and goofs on a story. John Bowers sets the type which brings varied re- sponse. 200 Even though it is he who makes the presses roll, Paul Steele likes to take a closer look at the day ' s news. Everything and anything can and does happen in the newsroom. In their search for the news and entertainment the readers want, the Kansan Staff runs across every type of situation and in- dividual—people who are genuine and concerned in their criticism and those who can be de- scribed only as cranks. The Kansan has organ- izations and committees march in en masse to try to alter opinions and policies. There have also been letters from all kinds of people, high and low, whose advice they have taken. In the march of the news may be seen events that shake and shape the University. There are routine days, days when nothing happens, and days when the presses must be stopped to put in a top story. Through all the work and frustra- tions runs the comradeship that keeps the jour- nalism students going. A few sidelights that are a little out of the ordinary and yet commonplace on the Kansan Professor Emil Telfel discusses page make-up with Ken Ciboski as Roland Guilkey and.

Professional Journalism Fraternities HONOKARIES are an intrinsic part of every school at KU, giving students additional in- formation about their field and introducing them to prominent people in that field. The journalism school has five such fraterni- ties. In the advertising department are Alpha Delta Sigma, the men ' s group, and Gamma Alpha Chi for women. They try to bridge the gap between school work. and post graduation advertising work through professional meetings, projects and field trips. Sigma Delta Chi and Theta Sigma Phi, the honorary fraternities for men and women, re- spectively, in journalism, also sponsor profes- sional meetings with outstanding men and wom- en in the journalism field. In addition, Theta Sig sponsors an annual Matrix Table dinner, and presents an award at that time to an outstand- ing woman in Kansas journalism. The honorary photo-journalism fraternity, Kappa Alpha Mu, was organized at KU last year. KAM members learn more about journalism photography while attending conventions and working with equipment. 203 Top: A few more taps by Roland Guilkey and the form lockup will be complete.

Lighter moments bring coffee sessions in the Student Union, milk breaks in the basement, the J-School Christmas caroling party, and the j- School picnic in the spring. So far this year, in addition to the regular editions, have been a Homecoming edition and four picture supplements. John Herrington, Gretchen Guinn, and. Marion McCoy have served as managing editors and Paul Bunge, Ted Sledd, and Jim Wiens have been. business man- agers. The Relays edition and more picture sup- plements are on the way.

K Book THE K.-BOOK is a two volume guide to the campi. The first booklet is the K-Book Handbook, containing in- formation about the buildings, activities, regulations and traditions of the University, plus a few pictures. It is sent to all entering students each summer. The second part of the duo is the Datebook which sells for ten cents during the school year. It includes a schedule of campus events and space for the owner to record his own activities and dates. The books are edited during the summer months. This year Joss Dougherty and Liz Wohlgemuth were co- editors, and Hank Wittenberg served as business manager with Gene Paris assisting.

It is published four times during the school year: in November, January, March, and May. All of the articles are written by en- gineering students; these articles may be highly technical or quite general. The author of the best article in each issue receives a $25.00 prize. The magazine also contains several staff-written features. Two of these are The Engineering Circuit, which features news of the engi- neering societies, and Men of Marvin, which honors four outstanding engineers in each issue. The Engineer is sponsored by the Engineering Council, which appoints the new staff each spring. The liaison between the magazine and the Council is the Governing Board, which consists of the president and junior and senior representatives of the Council and the editor, asso- ciate editor, and business manager of the Engineer. This board discusses and approves any major policy changes and chooses the Men of Marvin. The Kansas Engineer is a member of the Engineering College Magazines Associated, a national organization of magazines like the Engineer. 206 EDITORIAL STAFF Editor Associate Editor Assistant Editor Feature Editors Copyreader Joke Editor Cover Editor Marjorie Heard Bill Franklin Bob Johnson Don Landauer, Al Smith James Moore Dick Schroff Ron Clark BUSINESS Business Manager Advertising Manager Circulation Manager Faculty Advisor STAFF Marion Moon Lester Brunker Earl Bahnmaier Charles Mischke Front row: Madelyn Brite, Jerry Buchanan, Jere Glover, Editor Nangle, Fran Smoley, Jay Simpson, Mary Don Moore, Bruce Dillman, and Barbara Mulvaney.

In due time, the student council passed the necessary legislature to make the magazine a reality and the chancellor signed the bill. The name Squat was chosen for the budding lit- erary venture. It was felt this name had the character, the class, the suavity to be indicative of the contents printed therein. For the most part, all art work, stories, and photographs have been the work of University stu- dents. An attempt has been made to catch some of the flavor of campus life without sounding like the juicier parts of a bull session. The reception of Squat has been most gratifying to the sturdy band so they are constantly working on new ways to make it better. As an example, exchanges have been set up with most of the good funny wags on different campuses to facilitate pilfering high quality material. As a mirror of student opinion, Squat has come out opposed to communism, mid-semester exams and the AAU; and is in favor of sex, lung cancer and 90% of parity. 207 t Living Room of the University by Steve Schmidt and Bill Buck Dave Brubeck and aggregation keynote fall activities for SUA. SHORTLY after the Kansas Memorial. Union was opened after World. War I, Student Union Activities was organ- ized. Its purpose was to provide activities which would make use of the Union Building. The organization as it exists today is still dedicated to that purpose. As the stu- dent body expanded and the building itself grew in size, SUA received more and more responsibility. This year ' s SUA program is the most ambitious to date and it appears that the future will call for an ever increasing activities program. As all students are welcome to attend the sponsored activities, so are all who desire to work in SUA encouraged 208 Ed Fording and his band spark a Wednesday evening Trail Room dance. to take part in planning and staging events. The board, consisting of four officers and eight area chairmen, is chosen in the spring and serves the following school year. Meeting each week, the board plans policy and coordinates the SUA program. Each fall, students are invited to sign up for SUA participation. From this group each board member selects the personnel re- quired. to stage the individual events. The events are divided into eight areas with a board member in charge of each event. The most noticed areas of SUA activity are those which feature big name entertainers. Dave Brubeck was the first big name on the campus this year. A large crowd was on hand when that master of modern jazz presented a concert in Hoch Auditorium. Soon after Brubeck, Home- coming was upon the campus and SUA partici- pated in the festivities by sponsoring an evening of dancing with Les Brown and His Band of Renown. For its annual Night Club Party, the Ralph. Marterie orchestra was engaged. Besides the well known band, the party featured a night club setting complete with imitation champagne and candle light. The organization will com- plete this year ' s feature entertainment list with an appearance of George Shearing for a concert in Hoch Auditorium. Shearing, like Brubeck, is Bill.

Reigning over the Student Union Carnival was Barbara Houck (center) with her attendants Bonnie Golden and Sallie Callender. one of the recognized jazz authorities in the nation today. Annually, SUA attempts to help in the often confusing task of new student orientation. It held its Jayhawk Nibble at Potter ' s Lake with about 1,000 new students in attendance. Fol- lowing the picnic, the embryo Jayhawkers mi- grated to the Union Ballroom for the Cam- pusology Convocation. Though possessing a rather forbidding name, the convocation was actually a short dramatic presentation of the role of SUA, the ASC, and AWS in campus affairs. After the convocation, SUA furnished a band in the ballroom for a new students ' dance. To serve as a break in the grind of the first months of school, the annual SUA Carnival was staged. An authentic carnival atmosphere pre- vailed in the Union as organized houses present- ed shows and manned booths for the delight of the crowd that turned out. After several hours of the side show activity, the ballroom was cleared and the exhausted carnivalites danced until midnight. To further recreational activity on the cam- pus, SUA offers organized bowling in the jay- Bowl, Each semester, leagues are organized which are active throughout the semester.

Competition is also staged in billiards and table tennis. For students whose recreational tendencies are not quite so strenuous, SUA sponsors bridge lessons and tour- naments. If one happens to be bitten by the do-it-yourself bug, craft lessons are offered in fields from metal work to Christmas card pro- duction. To keep the student body dancing during the Left: Singer Jo Ann Greer vocalizes with Les Brown ' s band at the Homecoming dance. week, SUA sponsors Trail Room dances on Wednesday evenings, the majority featuring live music from local combos. So that hospitality will prevail at all times, the organization main- tains a staff of hosts and hostesses who become quite adept at pouring coffee for receptions by the time the year is over. The cultural side of life is far from forgotten in. the SUA program. This year ' s program in music, forums, and exhibits has been consider- ably expanded over that of the past. The group is constantly on the look-out for good displays of art and sculpture which are available. Some of the artful presentations for this year have in- cluded Norman Rockwell originals, modern sculpture, award winning paintings in the field of modern art expression, and local artistic ren- derings. The Music and Browsing Room has been kept well-occupied with the coffees and forums. The program features discussions by visiting humanities lecturers, travel forums, poetry hours and book reviews in cooperation with the English department, political coffees in cooperation with the Y ' s, discussions of music and musical instruments, and a series on little known cultural activities on the campus. SUA also works to obtain spirit for the varsity Ralph Marterie provided both dancing and listening music at the SUA Night Club Party. Right: Coffee and bridge always predominate in the Hawks Nest. athletic teams. When games are played off - campus, listening parties are held. During the football season, SUA held the Quarterback Club with Coach Mather after each of the out- of-town games. At the end of the football sea- son, the Last Tackle was held honoring the senior members of the team. In order to bring the presidents of every or- ganization on the hill together, SUA each semes- ter holds the Presidents ' Breakfast. This af- fords an opportunity for campus leaders to get to know each other. One or two outstanding faculty or administration personalities are pres- ent as speakers, but the general atmosphere is one of informality. Hundreds of students are kept busy in the maintenance of SUA activity and the whole stu- dent body is affected by the program at one time or another during the year. SUA is thus a service organization dedicated to the interesting task of providing worthwhile extracurricular ac- tivities for the students of the University of Kansas. With the responsibility of pleasing the student body, SUA always welcomes sugges- tions and criticisms. Events are often altered as a direct result of ideas submitted to the board by members of the student body. Also, new Below: The Mourner ' s Corner with the condolences of SUA.

Whenever new programming is un- derway, the new events are carefully studied to determine if there is a need for them and also if they come within the realm of Student Union Activities. Melodious ballads by Roger Brown at coffee hour. Besides receiving student suggestions, the SUA Board makes frequent use of ideas obtained from other student unions throughout the country. Special emphasis is placed on ideas from student unions in the Middle West because their events more closely coincide with those we participate in at Kansas. The students at the University of Kansas can be justly proud of the Kansas Memorial Union. It is considered to be one of the finest all-around unions in the nation. Not only is the activities program ambitious, but the general services which are offered are among the finest and most accommodating to be found anywhere. This is due to the farsighted planning of the past and the efficient management which characterizes every aspect of the Union operation. Today serious thought is being given to the future plan- ning of both the Union Building and Student Union Activities so that the Kansas Memorial Union will continue to be the center of campus activity.

GOOD is KDGU, your KU cam- pus station— thus KDGU, KU ' s student-op- erated radio station, begins another evening of broadcasting. KDGU first went on the air in the fall of 1953. At that time only two dormitories, North College and Corbin, could listen to the station. Starting last fall, KDGU was beamed to eight dormitories, providing nightly programs to a listening audience of about 1,000 students. Plans are now being made to enlarge the listen- ing audience to take in more students at KU. Research is being made to determine the cost of transmitters at each prospective listening area. These transmitters are necessary because KDGU 215 Bruce Dillman, Larry Winter and Janis Johanson sched- ule another day of programing. is a wired-wireless station, sending its radio sig- nal over telephone lines to these receiving units. The KDGU studios are located on the second floor of Flint Hall. They are a radio laboratory set up by the Committee on Radio and Television to give students enrolled in radio courses prac- tical experience in the field. Programs are writ- ten, produced and presented by student engi- neers, announcers, writers, and administrators. It is surprising how seldom they sound like such, even though people have been known to have to ad-lib for upwards of five mi nutes because they misread their assignment. People enrolled in Radio Speaking do some announcing on the station; those in Radio and Television Advertising Copy write commercials used by the station. Some of the continuity is written by the Radio Continuity class, and the Radio News and Special Events class is in charge of the many newscasts presented by the station. Radio courses are not confined to one field, for some courses are listed in the Journalism School, and others in the Speech and Drama De- partment. The Committee on Radio and Tele- vision, then, blends the speech or performance aspect of the field with the journalism or ad- 216 ministrative end, forming a liaison branch with both departments. The Committee on Radio and Television is a relatively new department, coming into being just this fall when Dr. Bruce Linton joined the faculty as the committee ' s chairman. Other fac- ulty newcomers include Assistant Professor Wil- son Key and Instructor Victor Hyden, KDGU ' s faculty adviser. KDGU is but one segment in the radio plan for the University. R. Edwin Browne, station manager of KANU and KFKU, the FM and AM University stations, has begun an internship for radio majors this semester in which advanced students apply their knowledge through work- ing on these educational stations. Another segment, due to be in full swing next fall, is the television program. Hoch Audi- torium is to be remodeled this summer so that dummy television shows can be produced and directed by television classes. KDGU, therefore, will be and is an invaluable instrument for training and teaching KU stu- dents the ropes of the aeriated world. It is through this station that students, after taking beginning courses in radio, learn the basic how- to ' s and learn to apply the knowledge gained in Dan Huff, Dee Richards, Charles Drew and Paul Culp gather around the mike. Around the horseshoe are Dee Richards, Paul Culp, Jim Kohlenberg, Larry Winter, Bruce Dillman, Virginia Bartlett, Humphrey Hodge, Nancy Wells and Ralph Butler (back to camera). the classroom to practical experience on the station. This knowledge is not gained in one week, or in one semester. One semester of work at KDGU gives you the background, and succeeding se- mesters give you the polish and technique need- ed to get ahead after graduation. It may seem that all the work that goes into the operation of KDGU is very amateur. It is true that the students learn. as they work on the station, and many hilarious as well as unfortu- nate situations arise, but we must learn by doing. It is also true that the standards maintained by the more advanced students are high, and there- fore programming is actually of a high level too. For example, did you know that some basket- ball games are broadcast over KDGU by student announcers? Or that baseball games were broad- cast to KDGU listeners last spring on a remote hook-up, and that this fall a regular long-dis- tance telephone interview with Coach Mather was held every evening before games to let the listeners in on the team ' s general feelings and attitudes ? Other special broadcasts outside the sports field have been the interviews with such visiting celebrities as William Inge, the playwright, and Don. Cornell, the singer who m ' ceed at the Auto Show in Kansas City this year, not to mention such newsworthy personalities as Wilt Chamber- lain, and Dr. Lewin Goff, the new University Theater director. Perhaps it ' s good that the sometimes anxious, sometimes blushing, but generally confident faces of the KDGU students can ' t be seen via radio. Some people might also fail to understand how a disk jockey can juggle scripts, records, and tapes simultaneously. The truth is that the best- executed jobs are fun as well as work, whatever be the field. When you combine the enthusiasm of well over thirty students, the ma ny hours of hard work that they put in, the joy they derive from doing it, the entertainment they give, and the excellent technical equipment that they have to work with, you find that KDGU is the KU campus station—the student voice of Mount Ore ad. 217 ' 1 heatre, KU IF ONE is to trace the evolution of the art form known as drama from its most primitive begin- nings to the present day, he will be amazed at the variations and innovations which have gone together progressively to make the vast and di- verse repertoire which is the drama of the world today. And, if one looks at an over-all picture of the current season ' s plays at the University of Kansas, he will be amazed to find almost the same diversity on a smaller scale. KU is proud, and justly proud, of its long tradition of good plays. Upon the firm foundation laid by Dr. Allen Crafton and his colleagues, the drama de- partment continues to uphold the tradition under the able leadership of Mr. Lewin Goff, Mr. Jack Brooking, Mr. Nat Eek, and Mr. Charles Dodrill. The 1955-1956 season was ushered in on Oc- tober 12 by the Studio Theatre ' s presentation of three American one-act plays, Lord Byron ' s Love Letter by Tennessee Williams, Summer Comes to the Diamond 0 by Robert Finch, and Finiculi, Finicula by Rita Wellman. The evening of plays provided diverse and entertaining samples of Scenes from Carousel directed by Dr. Lewin Goff and Gerald Carney leads Merrilyn Coleman and Dale Moore. 218 by Beverly Harvey American drama, and indeed of American life, for the settings of the plays ranged from the Mardi Gras in New Orleans to a ranch in Mon- tana and on to Greenwich Village, New York. The Studio Theatre returned to the limelight on November 9 with an extremely fine produc- tion of Madge Miller ' s Chinese fantasy for chil- dren, The Land of the Dragon. Again on Feb- ruary 29, with the theatre-in-the-round produc- tion of a robust Roman comedy by Plautus, the Studio Theatre reached its peak in a season of successful plays. The Menaechini, adapted and directed by Charles Dodrill, provided the au- dience with an uproarious evening of fun. Jack Jordan and Duke Howze starred as the two Menaechmi in the comedy of mixed identity, and were supported by a fine cast which made this production such a success. The fourth production of the series was Chodorov ' s Kind Lady, publicized as a chilling melodrama. After the Fraser Theatre produc- tion, the show toured Kansas, Missouri and Okla- homa for two weeks. Mr. Nat Eek directed the play, assisted by Charles Dodrill. Joyce Elliott One Act Plays. Top. Summer Comes to the Diamond 0; Middle: Lord Byron ' s Love Letters; Bottom: Finiculi Finicula. 219 T starred in the play as Mary Herries, around whom and in whose London home the action takes place. The University Theatre was off to a fine start with its first production of the year on October 26. Mr. Lewin Goff was the director for the presentation of Picnic by Kansas-born play- wright William Inge. Mr. Inge arrived on the campus to assist in directing the production, and from all reports, he was well pleased by the re- hearsals and the grand acting. The play has been called a slice of life ; perhaps so, but it is a dramatic slice, full of action and emotion. Joyce Elliott and Vera Stough were superb as Madge and. Millie Owens, sisters whom their mother, played by Lee MacMorris, is trying desperately to bring up right. Bret Waller as Allen Sey- mour and Roger Brown as Hal Carter provided a good contrast as the two young men between whom Madge is fluctuating. Perhaps the most entertaining escapades in the play were those of Rosemary Sydney, an old-maid school teacher played by Ruth Dodrill and Howard Bevins, her rather indifferent gentleman friend, humor- ously played by Don Johnston.

Gammer Gurton ' s Needle, a rollicking 16th Century Christmas farce, was the second pro- duction of the University Theatre. Adapted from the original and staged by Jack Brooking, the play centers around Gammer Gurton, played by Lee MacMorris, a shrewd old woman with a needle who runs a farmhouse, and Hodge, played by Larry Weaver, Gammer ' s hired man who has a hole in the seat of his pants. The plot is simple; Gammer loses her needle and after two hours of hilarious searching, finds it in the seat of Hodge ' s pants. The time of the play is Christmas Eve in Tudor England under the reign of Queen (Bloody) Mary. Calming down a bit, but still in gay spirits, The University Theatre and Light Opera Guild presented Rodgers and Hammerstein ' s bright musical comedy, Carousel, on February 6 through 10. Directed by Gerald Carney and Lewin Goff, Carousel was a highlight in this year ' s drama Front row: Ken Baker, Janis Johanson, Ted Teichgraeber, Joan Ryan, Nat Eek, Shirley Lee Lytle, Glenn Pierce, Ann Straub.

Barbara Blount as Carrie Pip- peridge, Merrilyn Coleman as Julie Jordan, Dale Moore as Billy Bigelow, Beverly Runkle as Nettie Fowler, and all of the rest of a superb cast did a fine job to make Carousel a colorful, tender and unforgettable performance. To close another successful season, The Uni- versity Theater presented Pygmalion in celebra- tion of the one hundredth anniversary of that versatile British playwright, George Bernard Shaw. A master with words and language, Shaw laid waste to the well-made Victorian drama of his day and created plays of wit, paradox and ideas. He wrote Pygmalion for Mrs. Patrick Campbell in 1913, and the play glows today as it did then, especially because of the unforget- Below and below on opposite page: Pygmalion directed by Jack Brooking — leads Marjorie Smith and Tom Sawyer. 222 able character of Eliza Doolittle whom Shaw created out of his heart and out of the squashed cabbage leaves of Covent Garden. Through Pygmalion, the KU audience once again realized that the man with the red beard and knicker- bockers will continue to amuse and influence generations for many years to come. Pygmalion is Shaw ' s idea of the myth of the sculptor, Pyg- malion, who created a statue of his ideal woman, Galatea, and gave her life through the goddess Venus. in the play by Bernard Shaw, Pygmalion is depicted as a professor of phonetics, Henry Higgins, played by Tom Sawyer, who on a dare from Colonel Pickering, played by Kenneth Evans, picks up the flower girl, Eliza, played by Marjorie Smith, from a Covent Garden gutter to make her a lady by teaching her to speak as one. The complication arises when Higgins finds Eliza to be a human being with feelings and thoughts instead of merely a guinea pig. Cer- tainly the cast, under Jack Brooking ' s able direc- tion, created on the Fraser Theatre stage the full impact of Shaw ' s drama. The University Thea- tre presentation of Pygmalion was indeed a fine tribute to Shaw and a fine commemoration of his 100th anniversary. Thus another season of drama at the Univer- sity of Kansas was brought to a close. Ranging from Roman comedy, 16th Century farce to 19th Century British high comedy and 20th Century American realism, this year ' s season has not let down the KU tradition. Perhaps it has raised the calibre of both presentation and choice of plays a bit. Certainly this year ' s season has been enough to inspire much optimistic hope for the dramatic productions to come.

Thurs- day evening you would probably find forty or forty-five girls laughing, swimming, and work- ing diligently to learn new strokes and dives. These are the members of the Quack Club. Every fall tryouts are held for prospective members. To become a member a girl must be proficient in such strokes as the crawl, backcrawl, side- stroke, and breaststroke. She must tread water, do surface dives, and do an endurance swim. But this isn ' t all. She must be able to swim in rhythm to music. Did you ever swim to the strains of China- town or Take Me Out to the Ballgame? Each year in the presentation of a water show, the girls perform to such music in water ballet. Work on the show begins in November when the club is divided into groups to begin work on various routines in keeping with the central theme which is chosen the preceding year at the spring picnic. Each group plans its routine, in- cluding choice of costumes and the music to be used. After several months the climax of much hard work and fun is the water show itself. This year the theme was Seeing New York. It was the story of a hillbilly couple from Ar- kansas honeymooning in. New York City. The co-ordinator was a policeman who guided the honeymooners to places such as Grand Central Station, Central Park, Jones Beach Pool, and Chinatown. All routines were cleverly present- ed, but two scenes were outstanding with respect to unusual effects. In. Harbor Lights the room was darkened and small lights attached to the swimmers ' arms made patterns on the water. Another of the routines had girls dressed in baseball suits, staging a baseball game. In the middle of the scene the lights were turned out. The bats and the hat of one girl glowed. With the hat representing the baseball an amusing routine was given. Besides the swimming, the diving exhibition showed much gracefulness and skill on the part of the divers. At each perform- ance the response of the audience showed that this year ' s show was another job well done. After presenting the water show girls begin individual work. When a girl first joins she is a pledge, next a minor Quack, then interme- diate Quack, and finally a major Quack. To the one who learns and successfully passes all the strokes and dives goes the prize and keepsake, a trophy signifying her achievements as a swim- mer in the Quack Club.

Reason and Refutation by Joan Sherar PERHAPS you have one for a roommate, you may have one in your house, or perhaps you ' ve seen one stumbling down the campus clutching a sheaf of notes and banging his fist into his palm periodically. All of them have a tendency to shout unless told to be quiet, and often have an uncomfortable habit of mumbling unintelligible phrases like We need to stabilize purchasing power. No, these people are not card-carrying cell members, or even campus undesirables. They ' re simply members of the Kansas Univer- sity Debate Squad. Their troubles can be traced to the 1955-56 national intercollegiate debate topic, Resolved: that the non-agricultural in- dustries should guarantee their employees an annual wage, more familiarly known as GAW. Although as a general rule, each team member enters only two off-campus debate tournaments per semester, preparation for these debates and 226 intra-squad debates require many a long hour in the library. In addition to this background re- search, newspapers and magazines must be read every day. No debater can afford to overlook any new aspect of the GAW question. The com- petition among squad members is keen, though friendly, and there is little, if any, cooperation on research or arguments. Twenty-three men and five women from a wide diversity of fields in the University com- prise the varsity debate squad. Coached by Kim Giffin as Director of Debate with Richard Wilkes and. William Crews as assistants, the squad started off the year by sponsoring a frosh tourney. Michael Mills and William Hagman tied for first with Ralph Seger and Allen Hickey. In November the annual intra-squad round robin was held, each team debating every other team. Team ratings were determined by the win-loss record. Bob Kimball and John Eland gained top honors with Kenneth Irby and A. J. Gorelick coming in second. In the squad elim- ination tourney, Irby and Gorelick took over for Kimball and Eland, who came in second. With these top debaters leading the squad, KU h as placed in several off-campus tourneys, with individual honors going to many of the members. Eland and Kimball placed fourth in the Iowa State Tourney with Eland tying for top tourna- ment debater while Gorelick and Irby took second place in the Southwestern Tourney. Wil- liam Summers and Bob Kimball walked off with first place team ranking at Arkansas, Kimball rating second debater in the tournament, and second in oratory. Eland and Kimball teaming again took second place at Pittsburg. KU debaters started off a good second semes- ter with Don Bowen and Leonard Parkinson placing second in the junior division and Hugh Bruner and William Hagman third in the senior division at Emporia. More honors piled up for KU at the Nebraska Tourney when Ralph Seger and John Knightly were named the superior team and emerged undefeated. KU, with two teams, recently placed third in the big Missouri Valley tournament, and Seger and Knightly won the regionals of the West Point National Tour- nament. Soon they ' ll travel to West Point to participate in the national tournament against top teams from all over the nation. Two years ago, the KU team of Hubert Bell and Bill Arnold won this famous tournament. Although most people consider basketball and track to be the activities for which KU is most famous, few realize just how successful Kansas has been in the field of debate. Since 1925, an over-all average of .750 has been maintained by KU forensic teams. Although debate at KU is a half century old, situations have changed. Then the entire squad consisted of six debaters who operated on the limited budget of $100 per season. These debaters considered six debates a year to be a full season. But all this was to change with the coming of recently retired Professor E. C. Buehler. In 1925, when Dr. Buehler came to KU, he observed a sign on the campus which was reminiscent of marine recruiting posters. A pointed forefinger under which the inscription, If you can debate, KU needs you, was written. At the same time, Chancellor Lindley said to Prof, as he was called by his students, Put Kansas on the map in forensics! This he was to do. In recent years, over 30 individuals participate in at least 200 debates annually. Dr. Kim Giffin, well known director of de- bate at KU, has a long record of successful teams. Considered a leader in the field of forensics, he is particularly interested in the field of discussion. Leonard Parkinson illustrates his thoughts in practice debate while Bill Hagman, Don Bowen, Kim Giffin, Ralph Seger and John Knightly listen. 227 Gathering around the table are squad members Ralph Seger, John Knightly, Don Bowen, Len Parkinson, Kim Giffin, John Eland, Hugh Bruner, Allen Hickey, Jack Gorelick, and. Micky Mills. A debater is of necessity an unselfish egoist. He must be willing to devote a great deal of energy to one of the most time-consuming of all the activities KU offers as extracurricular. The research work merges into days of practice culminating in a one to three day debate tourna- ment, the members often debating four or five times in one day. At the same time he must have an overwhelming desire to excel, to think faster and speak more convincingly than his opponents, and he must be confident of his argument and ability. The reward for good work is strictly internal satisfaction — that, plus one half hour of credit.

Sigma Tau OFFICERS Forrest Hoglund, President Jack Abercrombie, Vice President Don James, Secretary Roger Doty, Treasurer SIGMA TAU, national honorary engineering fraternity, was founded at the University of Nebraska in 1904. Since that time Sigma Tau has grown until now it has over 20,000 members and 29 active chapters in leading engi- neering schools throughout the nation. The purpose of Sigma Tau is to recognize scholarship and the promise of professional attainment, to work for the improvement of the profession, and to honor those students of engineering that possess, to a high degree, the broad principles of scholarship, practicality, and sociability — the three at- tributes of a successful engineer. One of the main projects of Sigma Tau at the University of Kansas is the awarding of a trophy to the department which builds the best exhibit for the Engineering Exposition. 230 MEMBERS: Jack Abercrombie, Jim Adam, Bill Allen, Burl Alpert, Phillip Altimari, Benny Anderson, Peter Arrowsmith, Dick Baker, Or- ville Baker, Paul Barber, George Bauerle, Larry Biggs, Victor Blankenship, Rex Blumberg, James L.

Tau Beta Pi TAU BETA PI, national engineering honor society, was founded in 1885 at Lehigh University to mark in a fit- ting manner those who have conferred honor upon their alma mater by distinguished scholarship and exemplary character as undergraduates in engineering. Students in all phases of engineering who place in the top one-eighth of the junior class or the upper one-fifth of the senior class, and who have maintained a 2.0 minimum G.P.A. are considered for membership. The Kansas Alpha chap- ter, established in 1914, has participated in the activities of the engineering school, maintaining a number of long term projects. One is a gallery of graduates of the KU engineering school who appear in Who ' s Who in Engineer- ing, located in the main hall of Marvin. Another is a shelf of nontechnical books in the engineering library. Tau Beta Pi i nitiated a slide rule course for new engineers and organized the first faculty evaluation poll in the engineer- ing school. Each year the organization assists in staging the Engineering Exposition by furnishing an information booth and guides for visitors to the campus.

American Pharmaceutical Association OFFICERS Jim Yowell, President Jim Stewart, Vice President Sue Daugherty, Secretary Sam Wagner, Treasurer THE American Pharmaceutical Association was founded nationally in 1852 and locally in 1946. The Kansas Stu- dent Branch is one of the seventy-four branches located at the many colleges of pharmacy throughout the United States. Any student enrolled in the School of Pharmacy may be a member. During the school year the organiza- tion sponsors speakers and movies pertaining to the profes- sion of pharmacy. Each spring, the APhA sponsors a softball tournament between the classes with a picnic following the games. Annually at the Pharmacy School Banquet, the organization presents a golden key to the senior who furthers the profession of pharmacy to the greatest degree during his or her senior year. Through the facilities of the APhA the members of each class of the School of Pharmacy are drawn together by the common denominator of social and professional interests. Ernest A.

Foster OFFICERS Gary Kinemond, President Bill Clow, Vice President Ira Gentle, Secretary Jim Pontius, Treasurer FOSTER Hall was erected as a fraternity house in 1924, but the University purchased it in 1942 with funds provided by 0. Jolliffe of Peabody, Kansas. Named for George Foster, former registrar, it was used as a women ' s dorm until. December, 1955. Since that time it has been occupied by members of Sterling-Oliver Hall as one of the men ' s scholarship halls. Brains whirling around the campus are Vic Viola, Chairman of the Student Hospital liaison com- mittee; Roy Gridley, Chairman of the Student Labor Committee; Gary Kinemond, Veep of Pi Tau Sigma; Jay Ochs, Cadet regimental commander of army ROTC, and Jim Pontius, on Squat staff. Some of the men are repre- sented in Phi Mu. Alpha, men ' s music honorary; in KuKu ' s and in the professional engineering fraternities. Also we hear they don ' t do badly in i.ntramurals.

Statewide Activities THE STUDENT Statewide Activities Association is the student public relations body of the University. Although most of their work is done in Kansas, they also have activities in other states. Each county or other area has a chairman and a corre- spondent responsible for events in that area. They are chosen at a meeting of the students from the area at the beginning of each year. Events such as high school assemblies about KU, a poster board exhibit, dinners, and other gatherings are planned. The correspondent is responsible for getting news to the news- papers about students at KU from that area. Other functions of the Statewide group are the Jayhawk Jubilee, an organized open house for high school students held in conjunction with the KU Relays; the sending of Jayhawkers to high schools, and the supplying of films, slides and speakers for county chairmen.

Scabbard and Blade OFFICERS Richard C. Shaw, Captain Dean Graves, First Lieutenant Charles Hedrick, Second Lieutenant Robert Stranathan, First Sergeant SCABBARD and Blade, national military honor society, was established at the University of Kansas in 1923. The pur- poses of the society are to raise the standard of military education in America, to promote the essential qualities of good and efficient officers, and to foster friendship and fellowship among the cadet officers and the various military departments. Activities of Company G-4 include a dinner preceding the military ball, the provision of an honor guard for the queen and her attendants at the ball, and a sham battle staged in the spring to celebrate Armed Forces Day. THE ARNOLD AIR Society at the University of Kansas, Ennis C. White- head chapter, was formed in 1950, and was named for General White- head, a KU graduate. Members are selected on the basis of scholarship and interest in the Air Force program and during the year, these mem- bers bring speakers from many military fields to address their meetings. The Angels Flight is an honorary auxiliary sponsored by the society for the women students of the University. Membership in the organization provides a means for men to become better oriented to military situations before actual service and enables them to participate in other worthwhile projects.

Regular professional meetings with discussion of problems and successes are the heart of group activity, in addition to promoting the Business School and its functions. Among these activities are dinner meet- ings, the annual casino party, and a spring formal. Front row: Charles Schroeder, Richard Billings, Bernie Moffet, David Burgett, W. L.

THE OWL SOCIETY was founded at the University of Kansas in 1914 to honor the junior men who had exceptional records in scholarship, ath- letics, extracurricular activities, and service to the University. During the past forty-one years, the society has fulfilled its goals of bringing these men together for the purpose of fellowship and University service. Through this union, any barriers to cooperation between these campus leaders can be removed and better utilization of each member ' s services to other activities achieved. The men for next year ' s club are chosen in the spring meeting by the present members. Three or four meetings are held each semester, with several social functions interspaced. 236 The fourth floor of Bailey provides a quiet, comfortable library for study. to Dean Anderson, has ample reason for being proud of the numerous filing cabinets and stor- age closets and the new office equipment of which she and the other secretaries are the main beneficiaries.

Through this program, the qualified young men at our university may be trained to be officers in the Army, in the Air Force, or in the Navy. This program is very complete and requires diligent and extensive work. Because all. work and no play makes jack ROTC a dull boy, the ROTC units make a social contribution in the form of the Military Ball. This supplement to classwork and drill is held annually and serves to acquaint the cadets and midshipmen with the social conduct befitting officers and gentlemen. The Military Ball this year was held December 8, in the ballroom of the Union, complete with a queen and all the trimmings. Judy Howard of Pi Beta Phi was crowned queen by Captain Elliott, the commanding officer of the Olathe Naval Air Station. Her attendants were Marcia Goodwin of Kappa Kappa Gamma and Jo Ann Benton of Gamma Phi Beta. A joint review of all the 855 cadets and mid- shipmen is held in the spring, where awards are made to the outstanding ROTC students. A mock battle is staged on Campanile Hill by members of Scabbard and .Blade, the national honorary military organization, following this review. There are other activities provided for the ROTC units. These students have the oppor- tunity to participate in drill and rifle teams, and the Army and Air Force sponsor marching bands. Regular Navy Midshipmen go on three sum- mer cruises as a part of their training, and Con- tract Navy students take one summer cruise fol- lowing their junior year. Army and Air Force Cadets are required to spend one summer at an Army or Air Force Base. The finished product of this broad and prac- tical. training program is an officer, who, after graduation, will take his place in the military world.

These units are placed in the Universities throughout the nation so that the citizen student may receive indoctrination for defense while pursuing a higher education. Although the AFROTC program is dedicated to Air Force interests, it is designed to comple- ment training of the other Hill departments in which the cadet is enrolled. Through the four years of the program the cadet studies global geography and its military aspects, problem solv- ing techniques, career guidance, and manage- ment techniques, in addition to more expected military subjects. The AFROTC is also active in intramurals, winning basketball and bowling trophies this year. The K.0 AFROTC rifle team is annually one of the top in the nation in national AFROTC meets, thanks to the persistence of its members and their Coach, M Sgt. Bumgard- ner. KU ' s Precision Drill and Color Guard also perform throughout the state for various oc- casions and have been featured on area TV shows. Socially the Cadet Corps is active in the Mili- tary ball, and holds their own Air Force Ball each spring. One of big field trips of the year was an inspection flight to the Arnold Air Development Center at Tullahoma, Tennessee. Shown are the engineering cadets and faculty that accompanied them. Two such trips were made this spring. Cadets at Summer Camp tried their hand at flying various ships, among them this T-Bird. Right: Cadet Col. Ralph Kelley heads the cadet ranks this year.

Strength o- tale Sea -11111111 by Jerry Dawson JOIN the Navy and see the world! This might well be the motto of the students of the Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps. At present, freshmen and junior members of the regular unit of the KU NROTC are anticipating their summer cruise to England, France, Denmark, and Spain, and the junior contract students will increase their knowledge on their summer cruise to the Caribbean. Sophomores go to Corpus Christi, Texas, and Little Creek, Virginia, for an amphibian-aviation cruise. Do not let us give you the impression that these are pleasure trips to sunny foreign ports. The Navy cruise is an extended laboratory period for the practical application of classroom knowl- edge. In addition to those from KU, Navy students from 52 other universities will take a cruise this In true navy tradition, another midshipman receives his class ring and congratulations. 244 Captain Gordinier at desk.

The regulars received a scholarship from the Navy after passing a mental test, an extremely rigid physical exam, and a series of interviews. No other service gives such scholar- ships in its ROTC program. The contract stu- dent need only have passed the physical at the first of his freshman year. However, he does not have the books, tuition, and $50 a month that go with the scholarship, nor the extra two cruises that go with it, but only the one after his junior year. The purpose of the NROTC program, which came here in 1946, is to train reserve officers for Midshipmen learn firing procedure of the 5 in. 38, largest weapon in the unit. the line, supply corps and marine corps. The choice among these three courses of study is made at the end of the sophomore year after two years of general study of the Navy, its history and operation. During their last two years of college, the line officers-to-be study naviga- tion and the administration of naval units; those in the supply corps acquire a knowledge which will be supplemented after graduation by study at the Navy Supply Corps School at Athens, Georgia, of the supply and accounting pro- cedures for the vast amount of materials neces- sary to modern naval operations; and the future Ron Higgins, Lt. Burke, Bill McClure, and Joe Throop work out maneuvering problems. MIDSHIPMEN FIRST CLASS. Front row: Robert L. Ferguson, Jerry Kindig, Sam Swartz, W. M. Lucas, John Kane, W. F. McClure, D. A.

This preparation takes place under the super- vision of Captain Virgil F. Gordinier, who will retire this June after thirty years in the Navy, three of which he spent at KU. He now has seven officers and six enlisted men under him. Navigation equipment, naval guns, directors, and sonargear on the lower floors of the Military Science Building are used by this teaching staff to give a practical aspect to the class work of the NROTC program. Spring and fall find the midshipmen going to weekly drill in lieu of a fifty minute class period. The especially proficient join the drill team headed by Bill McClure. This group performed at the Ring Dance and makes occasional trips in Kansas. Some midshipmen prefer to fire rather than carry their rifle for glory and are therefore members of the rifle team, captained by Dick Delaney. All is not drill and study, however, for the KU midshipmen. The annual Military Ball, a MIDSHIPMEN SECOND CLASS. Front row: Harold G.

The Ring Dance, at which juniors re- ceive class rings in a ceremony patterned after Naval Academy rites, is the most important so- cial function of the year for the Navy. During the intermission of this dance, the rings are dipped into a compass binnacle containing water from the Seven Seas by the recipients ' dates. The ring is then placed on the midshipman ' s finger. The ceremony is completed with a tradi- tional kiss under the high arch of the ring replica. The method of leaving the arch shows their relationship, engaged, pinned, or just a date. Sorry, girls, but NROTC midshipmen cannot marry until they graduate and receive their com- mission as an ensign in the US Navy! The various social events of the year including smokers as well as dances are sponsored by the Hawk watch Society, the administrative group of the NR.OTC. Each midshipman is a member of this society, and two representatives from each class period are chosen to formulate the policy of unit ' s activities. MIDSHIPMEN FOURTH CLASS. Front row: Duane L.

Green freshmen are put in green uniforms and started on a military diet. For two years these young men have no worry about the draft in return for attending only two hours of class a week plus a drill period. After this incubation period, which gives the student a general picture of life in the military, the Army asks that the cadet sign a contract. This contract has many benefits. Some of them are for the cadet. For example, the Army pays $.90 a day subsistence allowance. Unfortunately, they do not teach one how to eat on $.90 a day. After a year under contract, the cadets are given permission to attend Army ROTC sum- mer camp. Sun up to sun down the cadets prac- tice the principles of military living for six weeks. Although it sounds like a graduate course in boy scouting, complete with overnight hikes and target practice, it is here that the cadets receive their first practical training in the ways of military life. Back in classes the next fall, the now senior cadets have one more year of academic work. During this year they take charge of drill 248 periods, with the evident purpose being to awe the poor freshmen. The Military Science department honors its outstanding cadets by the award of Distin- guished Military Student ribbons. Cadets receiv- ing DMS awards are picked not only for aca- demic achievement but also for leadership ability and potential as a future officer. Cadets receive field training at Camp Carson, Colorado.

Back row: William Oborny, Edward Wakeland, Collin McKinney, Herbert Protzmann, Dale Trott, Terry Strong. Not in picture: Bill Crow, Nick Gianakis, R. A. Wolfe, Dave Ross. Finally, after graduation from the University and from the ROTC program the cadet is com- missioned a gentleman by right of an act of Congress. During the course of training the cadets are given a chance to work in any of a number of ROTC sponsored activities. On the strictly military side are Pershing Rifles, national honor fraternity for basic cadets; the Society of Ameri- can Military Engineers; the Army ROTC Mili- tary Band; and the Army ROTC rifle team. Participating on the campus are the cadet intra- mural teams, which frequently win games and Drum Major Dave McDonald leads the Army ROTC Band. often bag championships. Pershing Rifles, led by John Hunt, is a group of cadets who for some reason get a large amount of pleasure out of walking around in a group carrying nine and a half pounds of rifle on their shoulders. They are always trying to show how good they are, and they are good. Once a year they get together with PR units from all the schools in the area and decide who is the best. At the conclave at OU last spring several KU cadets proved they were as good as any cadets in the midwest. The Military Band is another group of show- 249 250 5TINGU SF E =PR —aid.

Headed by Collin McKinney, this group takes delight in playing at reviews, parades, or any other time someone asks them. Dave Mc- Donald, the drum major, keeps them marching in the right direction with his silver whistle. Carl Anderson of the Fine Arts school is respon- sible for whatever music they can play. The Society of American Military Engineers is another gung-ho organization. These cadets, as potential future second lieutenants in the Corps of Engineers, take a first-hand look at the work being done by the Army Engineers. In the last of April they will float down the Missouri River from St. Joseph to Kansas City just to get a look at the flood control projects now being constructed. Nick Gianakis is the big wheel behind this bunch of wheel turners. In addition to all the regular activities, from time to time there are special field trips to inspect various posts or installations and see the way a post is actually operated. The Army ROTC tries to be diversified enough to have sufficient different activities to keep every cadet busy all the time. This may not be possible, but most cadets will give them credit for trying. The chief civilian engineer for the Army at Ft. Riley explains the operation of a pile driver to Cadets Alexander, Gian- akis, and A. D. Smith on the SAME fall field trip. Brass, Percussion and Woods by Hap Harrison THE quick-stepping University of Kansas Marching Band is the only all male marching band in the Big Seven. Under the very compe- tent direction of Prof. Russell L. Wiley the band gave many splendid performances during the football season. In addition to the games at Law- rence, they also traveled to the football game at Nebraska. The pep band, which is hand-picked from the ranks of the marching band, adds much spirit and color to our basketball games. The leader of this fine group is Assistant Band Di- rector Edward Masters who formerly served as the cornet soloist for the United States Marine Band in Washington, D. C. The full-voiced University of Kansas Concert Band has always played an important role in campus activities. Their most noted accomplish- ments are the Spring and Fall Concerts and their participation in the vesper services. The orchestra has a schedule very similar to that of the concert band. It gives Spring and Fall Concerts and plays a very important part in the vespers. The highlight of this year for many concert band and orchestra students was their spring concert tour. This tour took five days. Con- certs were given at Chanute, Iola, Parsons, Caney, Neodesha and El Dorado in Kansas, and Bartlesville and Blackwell in Oklahoma. The students at KU are proud of their bands and orchestra and highly respect the fine work they do. Every student feels just a little proud as he watches the amazing marching band or listens to the beautiful music of the orchestra. Many of the students do not realize the intense hours of rehearsal which are required before a parade can begin or a curtain can go up. But, all agree that the final results of the music depart- ment, whether at a rally, parade, or concert, are superb. 251 KF I Orchestra VIOLIN I: Ruth Henry, Principal; Carol Brumfield, Kath- ryn Meredith, Fredrica Voiland, Glen McMahon, Marian Scheid, Julie Nicholson, Max Jensen, Carolyn Oman, Don Farrar.

Faculty A World of Quiet Beauty by Dona Seacat MONOTONY, tedium, ennui, boredom—no, these are not proper adjectives to describe the Univer- sity of Kansas Art Museum. One must rather choose such words as beauty, serenity, magnifi- cence and splendor, for this newly-redecorated museum has one of the most awe-inspiring in- teriors of any building on the campus. Remodeling operations were undertaken in December after a small fire caused smoke and water damage in part of the building. Designed by Edward Maser, director, the main art gallery is an elegant, spacious room with a deep blue color painted on the ceiling and the upper half of the walls, met by a creamy dark gray which covers the lower half of the walls and the stately pillars in the room. Rich oriental rugs in vibrant shades of red, gold and sapphire lend a note of color to the room and the smooth black tile of the floor. In this palatial-like gallery, emphasis is given to oil paintings accented by ornate gold frames; to life-like busts and statues carved of wood, bronze and ivory; to romantic old chests and chairs; and to a quaint little pipe organ that stands in one corner of th e room. Another cor- ner is devoted to a display of new acquisitions which is changed from time to time as new pur- chases or gifts are made. Through the center door of the main gallery, one is able to look into a smaller room character- ized by its stark simplicity. The windows are hung with white draperies, and the only other colors found in this room are gray, black and gold plus the crisp green of plants placed around the feet of the two gold and white Magi who preside over the room and its other inhabitants. The Museum owns a truly exceptional collec- tion of paintings including such notable works as Christ in Gethsemane by Jacopo Palma the Younger; The Musicians by Theodore Rom- bouts; Thomas Sully ' s beautiful The Lady of the Lake ; An Imaginary View of Padua by Bernardo Bellotto; and oils and watercolors by such other famous painters as Allori, Strozzi, Lely, Ricci, Ryder, Tintoretto, Bassano and Bourdon. 255 illustrations by Jim Hamil 256 In the field of sculpture, the Museum also has a marvelous and varied collection. An example of this is the lovely Madonna and Child which is one of the finest works of the great fifteenth century German sculptor, Tilmann Riemen- schneider. The Museum also has acquired three terra cotta sketches by Egid Quiren Asam; a marble Glorification of St. Sigmund by J. B. Hagenauer; and an early Meissen porcelain bust by Kandler. Other important collections which have been gained throughout the years are the collections of American glass; American, European and Oriental ceramics; the Dr. Maurice Jones Col- lection of Timepieces; and a collection of medals and plaquettes of the Renaissance through the modern period. Additional exhibits are displayed throughout the building. The southwest room on the main floor contains exquisite religious wood carvings and paintings; two large stained glass windows, one depicting Plato and the o ther Socrates, lend an air of mystic reverence to this small chamber. On the second floor, different collections are on display from time to time. The most impres- sive exhibit for many years was housed in this part of the museum during the months of Feb- ruary and March in connection with the Univer- sity ' s program for 1955-56, Mozart and His Age. This exhibit consists of German and Aus- trian prints and drawings of the eighteenth cen- tury loaned to the University Art Museum by the Vienna Academy of Art. The arrangements for the showing of these magnificent prints—their first appearance in the United States and their second trip out of Europe in the last 200 years—were completed in August by Mr. Maser who had gone to Europe on a University research grant. The results of his negotiations arrived early this year in the form of 64 superb examples of eighteenth cen- tury draftsmanship. In connection with this showing, Miss Agnes Mognan, curator of drawings for the Fogg Art Museum at Harvard University, came to Law- rence and spoke at the museum. The occasion was doubly festive as this was also the re-opening of the building after the December fire. The concentration of the exhibit on the prints of Germany and Austria alone was not done solely because they are the countries from which Mozart and his art derived, but also because the knowledge of the art of these countries during the eighteenth century is still at its beginnings. In the drawings, one is able to see the imme- diate work of art—in many cases, the artist ' s idea in its pure, unadulterated beginning. In the prints, etchings and engravings are expressed the artistic ideas of the century in the most signifi- cant form. This showing was a major accom- plishment and a credit to the University, the museum and its directors. The bulk of the permanent collection of the museum was presented in 1927 by Sallie Casey Thayer; the building was built in 1894 and given to the University as a library building by William Spooner of Boston. Hence, in 1928, when the building was transformed into a mu- seum, it became known as the Spooner-Thayer Art Museum. Today, however, it is known simply as the Museum of the University of Kansas. The Thayer collection is primarily one in which the various pieces have an intrinsic merit and are given added value by being brought to- gether with similar objects representing the de- velopment of different periods and places. This collection includes both Oriental and American decorative arts as well as several paintings and a group of eighteenth century Neapolitan figures in a Christmas manger scene. The remainder of the permanent collections consist mainly of American paintings from the period of 1865 to 1915 plus some European art from the years 1590 to 1740, some Oriental dec- orative arts, and a small group of Roman pro- vincial sculpture. The University Museum functions in many ways other than its chief duty of providing a home for the large art collections. A children ' s room is used for grade school art classes and for local painting groups and the Museum lecture room is used for large group meetings as well as for a classroom. Public lectures related to the fine arts are given during the year in addition to the monthly series of films on fine arts. Other interesting features are the periodical recitals given on the Museum ' s seventeenth century style organ. The Museum staff also supplies assist- ance in matters related to the arts and art col- Hagenauer; Glorification of St. Sigismund, 1756. 257 lecting and they provide an art reference library. In recent years, the staff, presently composed of ten members, has placed increased emphasis and value on museum publications. Small and attractive pamphlets describing the various ex- hibits are published several times during the year, adding to the stature and prestige of the museum. Edward A. Maser, director, is in charge of the publications as well as the management of the museum. His assistant is Mrs. Martha Remick. Other staff members include Zvi Luft, Curator of Collections; Inge Newfield, curator of textiles; Consuelo Howatt Rubinstein, hon- orary curator of decorative arts; Ellen Werner, Sook Hahn and Marilyn Sue Reeder, special as- sistants; Irva Elliott, housekeeper; and Robert Hartman, custodian. Truly, the University Art Museum is one of the loveliest cultural centers in Kansas. Its beau- ty is that of grandeur, tradition, proud heritage. Its walls offer knowledge, artistic pleasure and serenity for all who enter its door. Gotsch: St. Damian. Sully: The Lady of the Lake. 258 18th Century English Lusterware. t _ .

NSA is a confederation of college student bodies represented through their student governments. With some three hundred .member schools, rep- resenting 600,000 students, the Association is the largest representative national student or- ganization in the world. There are four levels of NSA activity; inter- national, national, regional, and campus. With the promotion of international student under- standing and cultural exchange as its primary aim, the Commission of International Affairs operates a number of specific projects and in- formational services. In the United States it sponsors a foreign student hospitality program, works to increase the number of scholarships available for study abroad for both student lead- ers of this and other countries, and through the International Student Information Service Bul- letin, it has made possible an international ex- change of information on student problems. It provides a travel program which was instituted in 1948 to satisfy the increasing demand of US students for low-cost, educationally - oriented travel. The International Student Relations Seminar and the Foreign Student Programs are also im- portant parts of the International Program. The Seminar gives American students an opportunity to study international student problems and train for participation in important interna- tional meetings and programs. The campus programs for the 34,000 foreign students studying in this country are planned through publications, individual guidance, the work of the international campus administrator, and cooperation with other organizations. Through such campus and regional projects, the foreign students gain a better picture of Ameri- can life and are encouraged to participate in student life and activities; American students, in turn, get to know people from other countries and learn about the culture and problems of other nations. Nationally, the NSA program is implemented through its National Commissions. The four commissions are: Student Government, Student Affairs, Educational Affairs, and National Af- fairs. The Student Government Commission provides information essential to smooth opera- tion and progressive improvement of student governments ' administration. Valuable research material is made available to member schools through the Student Government Information Service. This service provides information con- cerning finance, constitutional structure, elec- tions, handbooks, student courts, and a host of other aspects of student government. The Student Affairs program is concerned primarily with the extracurricular life of the student body. The commission distributes in- formation on cultural projects such as exchange shows, speakers bureaus, social calendars and campus film programs. Subjects relating to the educational communi- ty as a whole are the responsibility of the Educa- tional. Affairs Commission. Course evaluations, student-faculty relations, and curriculum de- velopment form an important part of the com- mission ' s work. Economic welfare is also under this commission, including such projects as the book-exchange program, Student Discount Serv- ice, relief efforts, and Campus Chest programs. The last of the four commissions is National Affairs, directed by a national vice-president who assists the president and area vice-presidents, and is responsible for the administrative work of the national program. These national officers are all students who are employed in their full-time capacities for a 260 year. They are directed by a National Execu- tive Committee, composed of representatives of each of the nineteen geographically formed re- gions. Meeting at least twice a year, the Execu- tive Committee reviews and directs the program of the association between the Congresses. The Congress meets once a year and is composed of student delegates from all the member schools. The domestic programs of NSA are financed by dues from member student bodies, by income from sale of publications and by donations and grants from individuals and foundations. Over- seas programs are financed entirely by grants from foundations and individuals, while the non- profit travel department is financially self-sup- porting and separately incorporated. Financial reports for all NSA operations are made to the membership each year to report on use of funds. On the regional level the commissions, which are similar to the national commissions, imple- ment campus programs. The student govern- ment is the instrument of NSA activity on each campus. It is at the campus level that the real value and the justification of NSA exists. This information on the basic principles of NSA is essential to understand its program. The students of KU have a good deal to gain from our membership in the association. Already our student leaders have gone to NSA for advice and information which has been used to help better our student government. The Campus Chest Committee used some ideas from NSA material to help them in this year ' s drive—an example of one kind of cooperation we can ex- pect in the future. In NSA, Kansas University student govern-. ment has obtained an international and national voice. Our student leaders will have an oppor- tunity for exchange of ideas through regional and national meetings. Because of this widened scope, KU student government is no longer con- fined to the limited scale of its past accomplish- ments. It can plan new projects and activities and judge their success against a national yard- stick of three hundred other colleges and uni- versities. A program with which the international aspect of NSA is closely cooperating is the World University Service. We here at KU are closely associated with WUS, with allotments from our Campus Chest being made to it. Every year students on more than seven hundred American campuses are urged to contribute to WUS in order to help students at universities in countries impoverished by war or natural disaster. It is only natural that the many KU students, in giving to WUS, want to know not only what they are giving for, but also what these students whom they ' re helping are doing to help them- selves. What are students in Asia and other parts of the world doing to help themselves? The answer is, almost everything. World. University Serv- ice as a part of the International Affairs of NSA raises funds for just that purpose—to help stu- dents help themselves. Students who get help through WUS, in their efforts to secure a higher education and improved living conditions, don ' t count on WUS to do the whole job, but only part of it. Nonetheless, gifts to WUS are im- portant for many reasons and they are often essential. An allocation to some Asian project from the WUS international budget, supported by contributions from American and other stu- dents, may initiate a project where work has been begun, but where local efforts proved insuffi- cient to do the job. Moreover, within the WUS framework, students in needy countries also help each other with goods in kind and services, as well as monetarily. Students in need help themselves in a variety of ways. This is testimony not only to the terri- ble handicaps they must surmount to carry on their studies, but also to their ingenuity and perseverance. These students are not a defeated lot; they are striving to make their education possible. They are working as individuals and in groups to im- prove their plight. These students are holding full or part-time jobs while going to school, building huts or hostels to live in, starting health centers, organizing cooperative stores and can- teens, mimeographing their own books and lec- ture notes, appealing to their own governments for aid, and raising money in their own com- munities in every way to help meet their needs. Because of NSA and the World University Service, there is a channel through which the students of the world may work together, shar- ing in order that anyone the world over will be able to get an education. 261 7 AMONG other things, Ray Krahenbuhl must be th e best informed authority on campus when it comes to the IFC, for as president of the organization this semester and past vice president, treasurer, Greek Week chairman, and Rush Week Chairman, as well as one of this year ' s delegates to the National IFC convention, the only position Ray missed was secretary. Not limiting his talents to just the IFC, however, the ex-sailor from Independence, Mo., is well known in campus political circles, too, as an ASC House member this year, past vice president of POGO, and a two-year executive committee member in the now-de- funct Pachacamac party. A UVO charter member who helped write the organization ' s constitution, Ray was selected to represent the KU student body at the National Conference on Segregation at MIT. He is a member of Triangle fraternity, and in spare moments between IFC and campus political activities, he has found time to study his industrial management courses hard enough to make the Dean ' s Honor Roll. ANOTHER busy senior with a variety of activities is Mary Ellen Lewis. Besides taking an active interest in the School of Business, her major field of study, she is president this semester of Phi Chi Theta, the business women ' s fraternity, secretary of Student Union activities, and treasurer of both Mortar Board and Panhellenic Council. Also a two- year veteran on the SUA Board and past-president of Alpha Delta Pi sorority, the 21-year-old Winfield co-ed keeps active politically with a seat in the ASC House and a position on the POGO executive council. All this, plus membership in the Accounting Club and Kappa Phi, Mary Ellen has added her name to the Dean ' s Honor Roll on several occasions. As THIS year ' s general chairman of the Engineering Ex- position, Jim Adam has assumed one of the most important student positions on the hill. Well qualified, the 21-year- old mechanical engineering major has served on the Engi- neering Council and is an active member of both hon- orary engineering fraternities, Tau Beta Pi and Sigma Tau, and the honorary society for mechanical engineers, Pi Tau Sigma. A past vice-president of the YMCA and now president of Alpha Tau Omega, the former Shawnee- Mission student also claims academic achievement, having made the Engineering Honor Roll every semester. A June graduate, Jim is Air Force bound after an outstanding four-year record in KU AFROTC. 262 AND WHY AN ALL American track star, defending Big Seven cham- pion in the mile and two mile outdoors and the mile and half mile indoors, and national cross-country champion in ' 55, Al Frame will walk down the hill this June to receive his degree in American Civilization. Recently the winner of a Woodrow Wilson scholarship which will enable him to do graduate work at Pennsylvania University, and pos- session of two beautiful trophies from the Big Seven Indoor track meet go to make Al Frame the man of the hour at KU. Add to this his position of Senior Class Presi- dent, a Summerfield Scholarship, a consistent member of the Dean ' s Honor Roll—not having missed it while at KU; and this gives a better picture of Al Frame ' s all-around brilliance. A young Jayhawker who is in a hurry to go places, Al is also a member of Sachem, Owl Society, K-Club, and is on the SUA operating board. His fra- ternity allegiance is to Delta Tau Delta. Al hopes some day to become a college professor, and the odds are he ' ll be a good one. THE engineering school may never become a feminine stronghold, but it has seemed that to Marge Heard. This Russell senior broke precedent when she enrolled in. KU ' s aeronautical engineering program and again this year as the first female member of Sigma Tau, national honorary engineering fraternity. She also is editor of the Kansas Engineer, publicity manager of the 1956 Engineering Ex- position, and secretary of the Institute of Aeronautical Sciences. Other activities have included varsity debate; vice-president of Delta Sigma Rho, forensics; assistant Dean for a Day last fall; recording secretary for the Tri-Delts; and president of Mortar Board. For the future she plans to be graduated in January 1957 and then take up a career as a technical writer. IT TAKES more than student government to keep this year ' s ASC president, George Sheldon, busy. Head of his Phi Delt pledge class, George found himself swinging the gavel at Forensic League meetings and serving as secretary of the ASC House of Representatives his Sophomore year. Currently he manages to keep active as a member of Owl Society, the SUA executive committee, and student repre- sentative on KU ' s Athletic Board of Control. He also finds time to serve as a Western Civ. instructor. Scholastically a Dean ' s Honor Roll student, George ' s future looks bright in the medical field which he hopes to pursue at either Harvard or KU. 263 Ability, Eligibility and Effort by Dick Walt THE KANSAS University basketball team started the season as if it were going to present Coach Forrest C. (Phog) Allen with a Big Seven cham- pionship his first year in Allen Field House, and in what is slated to be his final year of coaching a t KU. However, the scholastic loss of scoring leader Dallas Dobbs at the semester dealt a crushing blow to the KU hopes, and the Jayhawks wound up fifth in the league with a 6-6 record in league play and a 14-9 mark in all season games. The Jayhawks opened the season on an auspi- cious note, romping past Northwestern 91-70 in the season opener in Allen Field House. For- ward. Gene Elstun topped the scoring with 19 points, with Maurice King getting 16 and Dobbs adding 1 5 . Two days later, the Hawks staggered to a nervous 56-55 victory over Wichita as the Shockers dedicated their own field house. Bill Brainard and Lew Johnson sparked the win with 15 points apiece. Dallas Dobbs stole the spotlight as KU made its national television debut by dumping Wis- consin 74-66 for its third straight victory. Dobbs plunked in 26 points, and was backed up by Elstun and Johnson with 14 each. The Jayhawks ' three-game winning streak fell by the wayside as they were slaughtered 81- 61 by Southern. Methodist at Dallas. King and Dobbs were the only KU sparkplugs, scoring 18 and 14 points respectively. A 75-66 loss to Rice brought further disaster to the road trip, but KU returned to friendly Allen Field House to pin Southern Methodist with a 62-58 defeat in the final game before the Big Seven pre-season tournament. In the Big Seven meet, the Hawks advanced to the finals by virtue of wins over Cornell and Missouri, but the Big Red couldn ' t cope with Left: Johnson gets an elbow along with the ball.

Kansas had rolled over Cornell 75-58 behind 17-point outbursts by Elstun and Brainard, and decisively whipped Missouri 75-56 as Elstun fired home 22 tallies and Dobbs added 21 more. In the finals, Thompson personally sank the KU hopes with a 22-point barrage which helped the Cyclones compile a 42-25 halftime lead, and the Jayhawkers never caught up, despite 17 points by Dobbs and 12 by King. Coming back after the Christmas recess, the Hawks presented Coach Allen with a 65-62 vic- tory over Hank Iba ' s Oklahoma A M squad in the final tuneup before league action opened. Dobbs was limited to only seven shots from the field by the rugged Aggie defense, but he con- 265 The Shockers bow to KU. nected on all seven and added five of six free throws to take scoring honors with 19 points. Johnson added 16 more. Dobbs continued his redhot shooting in the opening league game of the season, firing home 30 points as the Hawks rolled to a 77-65 victory over Oklahoma. Elstun with 14 and King with 14 were the chief support, as the Jayhawks com- piled a 3 8-2 8 halftime lead and were never in serious danger. Missouri, revenge-bound after falling before KU in the pre-season tournament, handed the Jayhawks their first league loss, a 76-54 massacre at Columbia. Bill Ross and Norman Stewart led Elstun goes to the floor for the ball. the slaughter with 24 and 19 points, while John- son paced the listless Jayhawkers with 13. The Jayhawks bounced back from this lacing to score a pair of hectic victories, downing K.- State at Manhattan, 91-86, and returning home to nip Iowa State 68-63. Dobbs led the Hawks to their seventh straight win over K-State with 24 points, and reserve Ronnie Johnston and center Lew Johnson each added 13. King took over the scoring burden against Iowa State, getting 20 points while limiting the Cyclones ' Gary Thompson to 11. Dobbs added 17 and Ronnie Johnston again played a key role with 10 valuable points.

The win gave Coach Allen a 17-16 edge in his all-time duel with Aggie coach Hank Iba. With Dobbs permanently grounded on the scholastic reefs, the Jayhawkers opened their sec- ond semester activities by bowing to Iowa State 79-63 at Ames. Center Charles Crawford led Iowa State with 24 points, while KU center Lew Johnson topped the Hawks with 16. KU uncovered a promising new light in jun- ior forward Eddie Dater, but Missouri was too Doc calls the signals in the huddle. hot in the first half, and the Tigers picked up an victory. It was KU ' s first loss in Allen Field. House. Dater, who had scored only eight points all year, plunked home 21 and Elstun con- tributed 22 points in a feeble attempt to keep KU in contention. The redhot Tigers burst out to a 33-13 lead and KU never recovered. Center Chuck Denny led Missouri with 23, and. Norm Stewart added 20. After a five-day layoff, KU thumped Ne- braska 80-56 to remain in the title race. King fired home 21 points to pace the conquest, and Elstun added 17.

Besides Chamberlain, this power-laden crew includes Ron Loneske, Jerry Johnson, Gary Thompson who will be a junior, Bob Billings, Lynn Kindred and Monte Johnson. Even the members of this squad who saw less action dur- ing this season will probably give aid to the Jay- hawk cause if they are not lost among the talent which have already made names for themselves. Although Phog will no longer be basketball coach of KU, the style of play which he estab- lished will no doubt be that of future teams. His successor, Dick Harp, played under Allen on the NCAA runner up of 1940 and has been his assistant since 1949. The new assistant coach will be Jerry Waugh. Since Waugh terminated his playing career in 19 51, the Sheriff has been cage mentor at Emporia and Lawrence High Schools. With this talented combination of youth and experience in the coaches and players for the years to come, KU should roll to new heights of basketball power. The groundwork which Dr. Allen has laid in his many years at KU will be the basis for a future that should be very bright indeed.

FOR THE fifth straight year Head Coach Bill Easton stepped up and received the Big Seven Indoor championship trophy. Again the talk of breaking up Kansas was only talk and would remain such for another year. The victory in Kansas City ' s Municipal Audi- torium on March 2 and 3 gave Kansas the second leg of another triple slam. Already winners of the cross country title and now the indoor crown, only the outdoor cham- pionship remains before Kansas would win its fifth straight triple slam. If they do, it will be a feat which no other school has accomplished even once. Kansas won the indoor title with 51 points. Oklahoma was second with 45 Finishing be- hind the leaders were Missouri, 36; Colorado, 21 5 6; Iowa State, 121 4; Kansas State, 8; and Nebraska, 41 2. Bill Easton presents team captain, Dick Blair, with Kansas ' fifth consecutive Big Seven Indoor cham- pionship trophy. KU Goes the Distance Senior distance ace Al Frame set the pace for his victorious teammates by whipping Missouri ' s Keith Bacon in the mile and outla sting another Tiger, Duane Kelly, in the half mile. Frame ' s double of 4:16.8 and 1:54.7 has been bettered only by his former teammate, Wes Santee. Senior sprinter and team captain Dick Blair successfully defended his 60-yard dash title. He nosed out Missouri ' s Jack Davis with a :06.3 clocking. The time was one-tenth of a second off the meet record which he tied in 19 5 5 . Blair also led off the mile relay for the Jayhawkers, and was unofficially timed in :48.5. Bill Nieder started things off right on Friday night by tossing the shot break his own mark of 53 ' 10 8 set in 1955. Sophomore Al Oerter added a third in the event with a toss of 51 ' 6 1 4 . Oerter ' s best throw of the season was against Missouri in Allen Field 274 Dick Blair adds five points to the Kansas total. House. On the boards, Jerry McNeal increased his lead with every stride as the sophomore easily won the two-mile in 9:31.9. Additional points were scored in the event when sophomore Bob Nicholson placed fourth. Other Kansans to score in the mile behind Frame were sophomore Hal Long, third, and junior Lowell Janzen, fourth. Dave Tams tied with Paul Miller of Kansas State and Karl Englund of Missouri for second in the pole vault. Hedrik Kruger of Oklahoma set a new mark of 14 ' 2 in winning the event. Bob Cannon had to settle for second in the high jump as Robert Lang of Missouri estab- lished a new record of Cannon cleared the bar at but missed his three attempts to make the winning height. The old record of Blaine Hollinger kicks up the sawdust. Kent Floerke shows good form in the broad jump. With Blair leading off, the baton went from Larry Stroup to Bob Franklin to Louie Stroup in the mile relay. DUAL MEETS Oklahoma 48 Kansas 56 Michigan 60 Kansas 58 Missouri 45 Kansas 59 6 ' 5 Yg was held by Tom Scofield of Kansas. The Kansas mile relay foursome turned in an excellent clocking of 3:22.5, but had to settle for second place behind Oklahoma ' s record-shat- tering time of 3 :20.0. Kansas ran against Iowa State in the final heat of the relay. Blair led off with the fastest quar- ter of the meet and gave Larry Stroup a good lead. Stroup maintained the gap as he handed the baton to Bob Franklin who kept the Jay- hawker lead intact as he handed off to anchor man Louis Stroup. Stroup broke the tape ten yards ahead of the Iowa State runner. In the broad jump, sophomore Kent Floerke took second place with a jump of 24 ' 1 4 . KU got another point when Frank Mastin, junior, grabbed fifth with a leap of 22 ' 11 4 Kansas failed to score in only three of the meet ' s events—the 60-yard low and high hurdles and, the 440-yard dash. Ray Wyatt, sophomore, and KU ' s lone finalist in the quarter, was barely nudged out of placing at the tape. In the low hurdles, sophomore Dave Freeman fell in the preliminaries Friday night. Three other Kansans ran in the mile but failed to score. They were Berine Gay and Jan Howell, juniors, and sophomore Verlyn Schmidt. Junior Bob Lewis did not score in the pole vault. Double winner, Al Frame, takes time to catch his breath. 276 BIG SEVEN INDOOR MEET Kansas 51 Oklahoma 451 2 Missouri 36 Colorado 21 5 6 Iowa State 121 2 Kansas State 8 Nebraska 41 3 After the meet, Coach Easton had high praise for assistant coach Jack Warner, and his two student managers, Harold Hein and Dick Van- dervoort. Without their help, Easton said, the team would not have been in the top shape needed to succ essfully defend their title. The conference meet was a fitting climax to a good indoor season for the jayhawkers. They won their opening dual meet against Oklahoma 56-48, and then unofficially placed second be- hind Notre Dame at the Michigan State Relays at East Lansing. They then eased a heart-break- ing two-point loss to the University of Michigan (60-58) by whipping Missouri the following weekend 59-45. The Jayhawkers should have less trouble win- ning the outdoor title, since they have tremen- dous strength in the two events added to the outdoor agenda—the discus and the javelin. Oerter holds the national freshman discus rec- ord. In the javelin throw, Les Bitner, 19 5 5 Big Seven and NCAA champion, leads a hard-to- beat crew of Jim Londerholm and junior John Parker. Parker placed second in the conference last spring and Londerholm captured the fresh- man title. Bitner holds the national collegiate record with a 246 ' toss in winning the NCAA crown last year. Bill Nieder continues to rewrite the record books. 277 Bob Cannon clears the bar to give Kansas second place. turned out to be real point-getters for Kansas throughout the season. During the next weeks the Hawks traveled to Colorado where they showed up well, but were edged from victory by only two points, 43-41. On February 11, the Jays played host to Kansas State, defeating them badly, 51-33, before an overflow crowd at Robinson Pool. Two school records were broken in this meet. The medley relay team, composed of Thompson, Clevenger, and Burke, broke the old mark of 3:15.9 with a time of 3:15.0. Chuck Edwards raced to a 54.8 time in the 100-yard free-style, bettering the old record of 56.5. Traveling to Kansas State, the tankmen ran up their record to three victories in four starts by defeating the Wildcats. On February 18, a powerful Oklahoma crew handed Kansas their second defeat as they ran up a 57-25 score, tak- ing all but one first place. The next weekend saw the Hawks travel to Grinnell where they were held from victory by only four points, 44-40. On the following Saturday the Kansas swimmers invaded Nebraska where they were downed 52-32. A strong Iowa State team raced to more record-breaking times on. March 3, de- feating Kansas 60-32 in Robinson Pool. At the Big Seven Conference Meet at Colo- rado, Kansas managed to take fifth place. Both Swimming by George Kreye THE KU Swimming Team began 1956 with a greatly improved team and an even greater splash. With the help of competing coach Chuck Edwards and five returning lettermen, the team completed a more successful season than has been the case in past years. Returning lettermen were Peter Thompson, Don Burton, Eugene Buchanan, George Kreye, and Bud Burke. After working out regularly since early Octo- ber, the tankmen came through to defeat Ne- braska 50-34 on January 14 in the Robinson Pool. This first meet proved to be a preview of the abilities of the 300-yard medly-relay team and the 400-yard free-style relay team which Coach Edwards gives a few pointers to Dusty Milledge, George Kreye, Joe Holliday and Jon Poort. 278 Bill Matthews goes high off the board. Dusty Milledge, Don Burton, and Bud Burke stretch out on the dive. relay teams raced to third places and Don Burton amassed eight points in backstroke events to help the team finish with 25 points, only six behind fourth place Colorado. Coach Edwards has high hopes for an im- proved team next year, when he expects the talents of Tom Clevenger and Jon Poort to be of especial value in making the season successful. Although not of the dimensions of many KU athletic activities, the swimming team is an in- tegral part of our sports program. It can well be said that the swimmers really earn their ac- complishments, considering their six-month sea- son, the facilities that they work in, and the lack of support by the school. With all the swimming talent coming from the Kansas schools, we should be able to look forward to better teams at KU in the future.

Freshman girls met her a few hours after their arrival and heard that she thought they were mature enough to run their own lives. However, they also found she can say a ladylike no. Many people have confidence in her opinions, and women from every group on this campus know they can drop in her office to discuss official policy or a broken heart. Her influence has been felt by all of us. The water ballet Seeing New York was staged for a capacity crowd. The street scene and that of a nightclub gave the sprinkled group a few hours of smiles. Our baseball team got a mechanical pitcher that releases a ball every eight seconds, and Wes Santee was saved by an injunc- tion in his spat with the AAU. This is important because there is no professional track to speak of, and also because the AAU may be held to strict accountability hereafter, for it ' s said other ath- letes are equally guilty of expense account viola- tions.

This may keep him off Sarge, the Sigma Nu monument, for a while. Sarge has been losing out, after years of glory as top dog on campus, and now the Sigma Nus give him a bath, a rubdown, and encouragement after each battle. We can commiserate with Sarge as he ' s being edged out in this game of power politics, and offer the thought that you can ' t kill an atmosphere, and he ' ll be part of our atmosphere when we return to see our children in their frays and politics and glories. by loss Dougherty 281 You Couldn ' t Serve a Better Food than ICE CREAM VI 3-6464 1241 Oread Pleased by Rowlands large selection of greeting cards Compliments of the HARRY DARBY CORP.

The drive was undoubtedly one of the most successful charity drives in Law- rence ' s history. When the day was done and the tired but enthusiastic people had all turned in their collections, the total was a heartwarming $1,250.00 which started the county drive well on its way toward its goal. 296 Above: The DU quartet. Below: That last surge for the finish line. After a few short minutes of relaxation, the guys and dolls donned their evening clothes, and began to fight their way through the crowd to the Duke Ellington dance. Before a backdrop, modernistically interpreting Greek architecture, the famous composer of such masterpieces as Caravan, Mood Indigo, and Sophisticated Lady presented a program of solid entertainment, much to the enjoyment of two thousand stu- dents and faculty. During the intermission of the dance, the King and Queen were announced and presented to reign over the week of festivities. The King was Scott Dole, representing Sigma Alpha Epsilon, and the Queen was Dale Barham, representing Delta Delta Delta. The attendants to the Queen were Sandra James, Pi Beta Phi, and Mary Belle Brown, Kappa Alpha Theta. Their escorts were Jerry Cox of Delta Tau Delta, and Gerald Rosenlund of Phi Gamma Delta. In the seven days ensuing, the main of Greek Week unfolded. IFC panel discussions were held to discuss rushing and scholarship problems. Fraternity men met to exchange ideas on rush week, the rush booklet, and methods of improv- ing scholarship. The scholarship push for the past few years has been quite successful, as the KU fraternities ranked fifth in the nation last year among major universities. The Inter fraternity - Panhellenic scholarship banquet was held on Wednesday of Greek Week. Each fraternity was represented by its president, scholarship chairman, senior IFC member, and Top: The men of Beta Theta Pi raise their voices in song.

The sororities in turn brought their president, scholarship chairman and honor initiate. Ray Nichols, executive secretary to the Chancellor, presented a very interesting speech entitled In Praise of Excellence. Trophies for outstanding scholastic work during the fall se- mester and preceding year were presented by both groups at the banquet. Panhellenic present- ed the award for the highest individual scholar- ship to Kit Westgate. The award for the highest over-all scholarship went to Pi Beta Phi. Alpha Omicron Pi won the award for the greatest scholarship improvement. Beta Theta Pi received trophies for the house with the highest grade average for last year and for the pledge class making the highest grades last semester. One of the highlights of the annual Greek Week is always the interfraternity sing which this year saw twenty-one groups competing. With Bonny Doon and Sit Down Servant, Chi Omega captured first place in the women ' s division. In the fraternity division, Beta Theta Pi won, singing Beta Dragon and Black Is the Color of My True Love ' s Hair. First place for small ensemble went to the Delta Upsilon quartet singing ' Row, Row, Row and Oh, By Jingo. Ray Nichols presents an after-dinner address at the Scholarship Banquet.

Second in the fraternity division went to Sigma Alpha Epsilon and third to Sigma Nu. Sigma Kappa walked off with second place in the small ensembles. The Sig Ep chariot outdistanced the other hellenistic vehicles and crossed the finish line with a sizzling 1:16, five seconds under last year ' s winning time. The race this year went off with relatively few calamities or disintegrating chariots. Sarge did, however, cause a little bed- lam when he dashed across the street directly under the heels of two sprinting horses. Second place went to Sigma Nu, and third ended in a tie between Sigma Alpha Epsilon and Kappa Sigma. Queen Dale and King Scott reigned over the event and presented the trophies to the winners. When the dust had cleared and the runners recovered from the race, everyone adjourned to the Tee Pee to finish off the afternoon ' s enter- tainment and to attend the last activity of Greek Week. Big Bob Daugherty was the attraction at the local pub and a boogie beat pulsed out spine- tingling notes to thrill us all, to chime in our minds ' til next year ' s melodious Greek Week keynotes the Greek year.

WI RUBY ScHAULis, Clay Center ' s contribution to this year ' s who ' s who on campus, is secretary or president of numer- ous organizations. During her four years, she has served as secretary of the Education Club, Delta Phi Delta hon- orary art sorority, and KU ' s Canterbury Association. She has been president of Jay Janes, Miller Hall, and the Epis- copalian Eastern Kan sas diocese of Canterbury. The busy senior ' s other activities include Mortar Board, Statewide Activities, sophomore counselor, AWS senate, and Pi Lambda Theta honorary education sorority. Ruby has been on the Dean ' s Honor Roll almost every semester. She is presently finishing her quarter practice teaching in Kansas City ' s Westwood View elementary school. Future plans sound exciting: a Rotary Fellowship to Australia will enable her to study next year at the University of Queens- land. IN THE past four years, Crandall Melia ' s name has become synonymous with POGO. The three-time president of the Party of Greek Organizations has proved to be one of the best political organizers on the hill. Though campus politics are the Bucklin senior ' s pet interest, he has been outstanding in the ASC and IFC. Last year he served on the National Student Association Investigating committee for the ASC and as public relations secretary of IFC. This year Crandall was chairman of Greek Week, after heading the Louis Armstrong dance committee last year. He has also been a feature writer for the Jayhawker. In Phi Kappa Sigma he has served as secretary and pledge trainer. A SECOND-GENERATION Jayhawker from Wheaton, Illinois, Shirley Lytle likes Democrats and dramatics. Shirley played the lead in last year ' s student theater-in-the round production of the Philadelphia Story, for which she was awarded top honors in the speech and drama department. This year she is president of the University Players. Politi- cally, she is vice-president of the National College Council for young Demos and has been a delegate to several demo- cratic conventions. Shirley has devoted many hours of work to the ' 5 5 and ' 5 6 homecomings, and Rock Chalk as publicity chairman. She has made the Dean ' s Honor Roll and attended the National TAWS convention as a group leader. A Gamma Phi Beta, Shirley takes the tra- ditional walk down the hill this spring but is bound for a graduate degree in speech correction. 300 AND WI Y BEST known to most for his poetic version of Tutti- Frutti, Don Johnston, as MC of this year ' s Rock Chalk, added another success to his brilliant career at KU. The Pittsburg senior made a hit as Howard in last fall ' s campus production of Picnic. Don also walked home with four first place trophies in hill intramural speech contests. Don. distinguished himself during the past year as Battalion commander of KU ' s NROTC unit, president of Beta Theta Pi and co-chairman of this year ' s Kansas Relays stu- dent committee. He is a member of numerous honorary organizations including Sachem, Scabbard and Blade and Campus Chest Steering committee. The Dean ' s Honor Roll, NROTC scholarship and. Widemann Fund (Business School) scholarship testify to Don ' s scholastic ability. Graduating in June in personnel management, Don will be heading for Navy supply school at Athens, Georgia. IF A wide range of interests is indicative of a good Jay- hawker editor, Connie Cloyes should be one of the best. She has served the ASC traditions committee, campus chest steering committee, YWCA, rush and scholarship committees of Panhellenic, SUA, and as chairman of last fall ' s homecoming dance committee. The busy El Dorado co-ed is champion in the girls ' singles bowling division. Her musical interest led her to a position in the University orchestra her freshman year. She also is president of Delta Gamma sorority. Connie has demonstrated her ability on the scholastic side of college by being on the Dean ' s Honor Roll and an honor. English student. Working toward medical school, coupled with one of the biggest positions of the campus, jayhawker editor, Connie ' s senior year seems to be pretty well cut out for her. LAST year John Nangle endeared himself to all the campus by founding Squat, KU ' s answer to Playboy, and is serv- ing this year as its first editor and publisher. During the past five years the Burlington senior has kept busy as president of Phi Kappa Tau, treasurer of IFC, chairman of the Greek Week Chariot race and song festival and a member of the ASC senate. Talented artistically and musically, John was this year ' s art editor of the Jayhawker and has been both president and vice-president of KU men ' s Glee Club. With an industrial design degree forth- coming this spring, John says that he ' s open to any and all offers in c ommercial or industrial art. 301 (10 (11 In honor of the dead of World War II the vet erans placed a wreath on the Campanile at the Veterans Day ceremony. Voice for Veterans by Bill Lyons THE University Veterans Organization arose spontaneously three years ago as a non-political, non-partisan organization to promote the inter- ests of the veterans on the KU campus. With the purpose in mind to offer moral and finan- cial support to veterans, and to offer an oppor- tunity for individuals with common interests and related backgrounds to meet together in order to further their own interest in social, col- legiate, and other related activities, the UVO has grown from its embryonic beginning to campus-wide stature. In the interest of the veteran, the organization sponsors various social functions, participates in intra-mural sports, and offers scholastic assist- ance to those who need it. In addition, the UVO keeps current veterans ' information pertaining to veterans ' benefits and legislative changes. In the interest of the betterment of the Uni- versity, the UVO has in its three short years of existence sponsored a list of activities headed by the Welcome Chuck.

In the spring of 1954, the UVO held its first Easter party. At that time they were host to the underprivileged children of Douglas county. In the last two years an invitation has been ex- tended to the orphans from the Kansas State Receiving home in. Atchison. As a result, there has been approximately sixty children from the home attending each year. This year, as last, the veterans, in conjunction with the Alpha Del Pi sorority, entertained the children with a Easter egg hunt on Campanile Hill, took thei on a tour of the campus, and entertained thei with a skit at the ADPi house. Through dam tions by the Lawrence merchants, each child w. provided with gifts including clothing, toys an candy. This party is the highlight of the UV1 calendar and will continue as an annual affai Continuing to function for the good of tk veterans and the University, the UVO will cor tinue to grow. 1 Lanie Casebier and All Barling entertain two f dians at the UVO East party for orphans. THERE were several indications this year that the Rock Chalk Revue was becoming mature and big time. William Inge, who has been connected with his share of stage productions since his grad- uation from KU in 193 5, selected the eight final- ists from the twenty-three scripts, more than in any previous year, submitted by campus organ- izations. The facade of Hoch Auditorium as- sumed the appearance of a theater with the in- stallation of a sign which announced ROCK CHALK REVUE in flashing red lights. The programs went professional with a color cover and a twenty-five cent price tag. Even one of the original traveling trophies was retired. The 1956 show had come a long way from the first Revue in 1950. For the second straight year North College Hall and Alpha Tau Omega won the first place awards. These wins allowed the ATO ' s to retire the men ' s traveling trophy and set the stage for a possible battle next year among North, the Chi Omega ' s and the Pi Phi ' s for a third first place and permanent possession of the women ' s trophy. Taking second place cups this year were Kappa Alpha Theta and Sigma Nu.

Although they were not eligible for any of the awards, six other groups or acts kept up the pace of the show by performing during the back stage work of the set crews. They were Don Johnston, the master of ceremonies; Ann and Sue Markwell, a pair of twins at the twin pianos; the DU Combo; the Jayhawkers, four singers who bore a strange resemblance to the DU Quartet; the AOPi Bottle Band; and Roger Brown, ballad singer and guitarist.

The former Jayhawk went back through time and his magic mirror to relive his undergraduate days and his part in the battle between School Spirit and Snow Red with six of his seven Bolsheviks. The student drifted between their camps as they fought to gain his patronage for their causes. Although he realized that the road to knowl- edge is straight and narrow, when the final showdown came, he decided that it was really great to dissipate and, revealing himself as the seventh Bolshevik, fed a poisoned apple to School Spirit. North College Hall won its division with a musical entitled TGIF or Tumultuous Gaiety Handling the staff reins this year are Al Sweeny, business manager; Shirley Lytle, pub- licity director; Jo Scholes, director; Joe Muller, pro- ducer; and John Ryberg, as- sistant producer. 305 John Ball discovers it ' s really great to dissipate in ATO ' s winning skit. Increases Flunkees. The study-worn students of a math class were followed to their Friday afternoon rendezvous, the TGIF Wigwam, by their professor who had declined an invitation to join the fun. With the aid of the Campus Cops, he attempted to halt the gaiety and dancing, but through the use of tunes from Pajama Game and Guys and Dolls the students were able to convince him. of the harmless nature and the benefits of their get-together. Finally they even enticed the professor into their gaiety as he joined the students in the finale, singing This Is Our Once a Week Day. The Theta ' s IBM Blues was an on the scenes report by Sarge of the trials and tribulations caused. by an enrollment mix-up by the new IBM machine in the Registrar ' s office. The stu- dents ' names were replaced with numbers and the system resulted in an exchange of the foot- ball team and the home ec class. It wasn ' t long before the situation was so bad that the football coach lamented If I already had my Cadillac, I ' d go right back to Ohio. However, before any games could be lost or many cakes ruined, the students revolted and the spirit of the IBM died. The campus situation was then restored to nor- mal and the students were able to sing songs other than the IBM Blues. Although the Sigma Nu ' s rewrote their entire skit within two weeks before the Revue, they succeeded in producing a title contender in The Trouble With Alboit.

To Pay A Debt by Nancy Callahan You ask me how did it begin, the story behind the Summerfield and Watkins Scholars? And I say to you that a man dreamed a dream, and found a truth, and this was the beginning. The truth was the realization that Education is a debt due from past and present to future gen- erations. The man, Solon Erb Summerfield, acted and lived that truth. He was a Kansas boy and he attended this, our University, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in 1899. But Solon wasn ' t yet through with school. He went on to attain his Bachelor of Laws Degree in 1901. Thus at twenty-three he set out to make his for- tune, and make it he did, for by 1929 he was ready to meet the debt, to tell the dream, to give his University the Summerfield Scholarship for Kansas boys. This scholarship was to become the most coveted and prized award given to a Kan- sas student. The Summerfield Scholar was pre- destined to become a person set apart, a person with a beautiful mind and the ability to be a teacher. He had to be, for it was with these qualifications in mind that Solon drew up the Summerfield Constitution. The scholarships were to be given to the most promising and capable graduates of Kansas high schools, judged by a committee appointed by the chancellor and representing the University faculty and the Board of Trustees of the KU Endowment Association. It was a four-year scholarship renewed automatically on the condi- tion that the student maintained a 2.5 ' average. But Solon, remembering his own college days, inserted a clause that the board was to be lenient with any boy who didn ' t quite meet the grade. Financial aid was given to all who needed it. Here again the specialness of the Summerfield Scholarship was shown, for unlike other scholar- ships it was to be awarded to the outstanding student, rich or poor. 309 Dr. Murphy and Irving Hill sur- rounded by tomorrow ' s leaders. So the constitution was written, and the first Summerfields came to the KU campus. They were the standard setters, the realization of Solon ' s belief in intellectual achievement, the true adventurers into the academic world. Thus the close of the Roaring Twenties found the University witnessing the start of the Summer- field tradition. It was a tradition that was to send its roots out over this Kansas state, digging deeper and deeper into the wheat land until it became a part of her people ' s pride and a fulfill- ment of her sons ' dreams. The Summerfield history is growing yet. It lives in the successes of over two hundred past scholars, and in the strivings of the fifty-three Summerfields now on the hill. It stretches out and into the future, tapping one boy here, one boy there, marking him with its own unique brand, calling him to walk up the road of wis- dom. It ' s a long hard road and only the ablest can make it, for of the three hundred and fifty candidates nominated this spring by high school principals only fifteen will receive the Summer- field award. These chosen few will join the annals of the Summerfield Scholars to write the new page in the Summer field history, and that history will be KU history and so our history too. Now that the Summerfield had been well established, the University sat back to take pride in her work. But something was missing, and that something was a Summerfield counterpart for the Kansas girl, so three years ago the Wat- The Summerfield and Watkins scholars enjoy a joint picnic at the home of Irving Hill. kins Scholarship was drawn up by the Endow- ment Association, modeled on the Summerfield Constitution. It had been christened Watkins in honor of a kind and gracious lady, Mrs. Eliza- beth Watkins. She too was a native Kansan and had attended the University. She too repaid the debt, giving the University Watkins and Miller Halls, the freshman dormitory, Watkins Me- morial Hospital, and the Chancellor ' s home. Now the University wanted to do something for her, to perpetuate her memory, and how better than to name the new scholarship after her. To- day there are nineteen Watkins Scholars on the campus laying the foundation for a new Kansas legend, a legend that promises to be as full of achievement as the Summerfield ' s. Yes, the Summerfield and Watkins story is long and full. It began with one man ' s dream and grew in youth ' s glory. The man wanted his scholars to be more than brilliant, he wanted them to have the wisdom of a giving heart and a working mind, the wisdom to build a dream out of a truth, the wisdom to know that knowl- edge of itself is nothing without understanding. He wanted them to know it, and to know it well, for when they did they ' d truly be — Summer- field or Watkins Scholars. Well, that ' s the story. It has no ending. It ' s a part of our college life here and now, and it will go on as long as youth is taught to search for knowledge, as long as a man can dream a dream —a dream of greatness to pay a debt. 310 To The Class of ' 56 GRADUATION from a university carries with it a sense of obligation to the university, but this obligation really requires the mellowing influ- ence of time to be fully appreciated. The value of first class training in technical and vocational skills is soon apparent. The fact that university training tends to raise income po- tential is well known. But that one has received an education—that is, that he has been chal- lenged to think, has been put into intellectual ferment, has acquired the makings of a sound and purposeful philosophy of life—such matters are perceived much more slowly. And yet, in the final analysis, they are the true fruits of a university experience. As graduates of the University of Kansas you share many traditions, but none more meaning- ful and exciting than that of university itself, for you are the direct descendants and products of one of the greatest inventions of the western world—the university. Central to the meaning of university has been the concept of the free market place of ideas. To be sure, activity in the intellectual market place has not always been vigorous or fruitful as, for example, when in medieval. times disputa- tion became sterile and pointless, or as in our time when gadgets tend to replace ideas as the major interest. The doors to this mart have not always remained wide open, and even have been bolted closed from time to time, here and there. But always some doors have been open to some degree, and always some activity has been pres- ent, and to this fact in no small degree can be credited the cultural, political, technical, and indeed spiritual advances of mankind. A strong case can be made for the view that the best yardstick with which to measure the real freedom of a people is the freedom which exists in their market places of ideas, their uni- versity. The complexity of the problems facing the Twentieth Century is such as to require for wise solution much more than the technically trained mind—the crucial need is the educated mind, implying powers of reason, analysis, syn- thesis, with sound historical perspective. This kind of mind can be fashioned, toughened and tempered only in the crucible of open and free discussion. This is the mind that denies that man has ever reached the millenium, and that he must proceed through sound knowledge and the strength it creates. The unfettered. intellectual market place is basic to the maintenance of freedom in all of its aspects. Political democracy, as a device to pro- mulgate human liberty, is a calculated risk—one worth taking, but nonetheless a risk. To con- sider it a sound risk, one must be essentially sanguine about mankind. One must believe that respect for human dignity, a desire to be free, and a quest for truth are basic instincts of man. We must agree with Milton when he writes in the Areopagitica, Though all the winds of doc- trine were let loose to play upon the earth, so Truth be in the field, we do ingloriously, by li- censing and prohibiting, to misdoubt her strength. Let her and Falsehood grapple; who- ever knew Truth put to the worse in a free and open encounter? It is the fundamental significance of the con- cept of university that it provide the oppor- tunity for the free and open encounter. Herein lies your obligation as a product of the university tradition — to help guarantee that the market place of ideas will, in your time, remain free and therefore productive so that man may continue to proceed through reason as well as through faith. 311 Top Row: Adam, Blakeslee, Buck, Conn, Coolidge, Crisler, Enos.

SACHEM CIRCLE Omicron De to Kappa Alb ELECTION to Sachem Circle of Omicron Delta Kappa, national honorary society for senior men at the University of Kansas, is one of the highest honors which men students can achieve at the University. Members are chosen in the spring of each year by outgoing members of the chapter and requisites for membership include outstand- ing scholastic attainment, activities, character and service to the University. This year, Sachem put copper plates describing historical University events on the Rock Chalk Cairn. On April 21, Relays Saturday, a reunion luncheon was given for active Sachem members and alumni. OFFICERS: Dick Blair, president; Joe Stein- bacher, vice president; Phil Coolidge, secretary; Jim Miller, treasurer. MEMBERS: Paul James Adam, Thomas Rich- ard Blair, Clement D.

Eighteen girls who had heard the call lis- tened as this melody reached out to them on honors day last year. It was a song that symbolized the beginning and the fulfillment of a promise. Here was the culmina- tion of three years of scholarship, leadership, and service— a reward for the elusive quality in a young woman that draws Mortar Board to tap her. A unanimous ballot is necessary for election, and between five and twenty-five new members are initiated into Torch chapter every spring. Since 1924 Torch chapter has been affiliated with National Mortar Board, and during the year members lead discussions, give teas honoring high scholarships, and are at the call of the University at times when they may give assistance. Someone once said that a Mortar Board is an outstanding, thoughtful girl who has a smile for a lonely person, and who carries within her the new promise to uphold the ideals which inspired the last phrase from the chorus of outgoing members, the phrase that floated across the auditorium, Be honest, loyal, true and strong as future Mortar Boards.

Chandra Borges in a national religious dance. by Toss Dougherty THE foreign student exchange program is like a vast market. You students are the spectators, watching an important transaction. Some of you are buyers, as your living groups sponsor a student while you integrate two viewpoints of the same world. The grande tour used to be taken to complete a liberal education, but now you ' re bringing your education to Kansas. Some of you are selling at the same time, as you send a student abroad. Some of you are negotiable, or would like to be on the market yourselves, the 345 The World Round â– 14, ' 41A ,,4% ANtâ– YriNA tof, rt,,.4t; , A F fr 4.r4 64- •, Korean on-lookers at the Japanese display. market of foreign trade. The most delightful things about this trade are that the negotiables are more valued for the wear, and that both sides plan to profit, and there is true profit in the exchange of hopes and powers and in the meeting of the minds. This is a bull market of human relations, for the worth of the scholars increases with time. Each one involved has gained experi- ences, and reflected in him is some of this land ' s science, art, literature, and melodies. He has ab- sorbed some of the atmosphere of other classes in American civilization, on shipboard, at Pot- ter ' s take, at the Union over a cup of coffee, near the iris beds on Memorial Drive. Here the future leaders of other lands come to know us with all our conflicts and our successes, and we are wealthier for the history lesson that is the foreign student. A conversation with him is a case study in international relations. He brings with him a wisdom and an instinct of the graceful tradition he represents, and it is our tradition, too. On the hill, these students often work for ad- vanced degrees, and it is difficult for them to understand a system in which attendance is com- pulsory, perhaps because elsewhere the enroll- ment is so select there is no call for compulsion. Our beautiful campus is a surprise to the 174 foreign students here. The Scandinavians find it too warm, and those from South America Representing their countries in colorful native costumes are Masako Sasaki, Japan; Pedro Leyton, Panama; Claire Alder, Switzerland; Mohammed Kazem, Egypt; Margarita Pipinopoulou, Greece; Olaf Erson, Sweden; Berit Lund, Norway; Wondwossen Sahale, Ethiopia; Djamila Tadjoedin, Indonesia. The Finnish display featuring glass art proved to be a popular booth at the Foreign Student Festival. catch colds, and if our climate is not a blessing to the 51 countries represented here, it is unique. Other of our eccentricities are often noted. Our duo dating system is not like their group parties, and seems like an artificial means of accomplish- ing a contact which is most natural. Often we expect them to become like us in every way now that they are here, forgetting that this is our opportunity to discover their own thoughts and opinions. With the vacations, many of them vanish, for this is their time to see our sprawling country. They may go to New Orleans, or Cali- fornia, or down into Mexico. One problem is that they are not allowed to work while they are here, even if they spend the summer, and while they find open doors in this section of the coun- try, to travel they must leave this support and go on their own resources. Another thing they find confusing is our sales tax. If the item costs $3.04 why not just admit it instead of claiming it is $2.98? The prices of our cars are another attraction, for at home the waiting list is long and the ante high. Cl asses start again, and they are at KU. The campus welcomes back the feet that have trod war-torn land, that have run from the shadows of Red land, back to our lazy land, our laughing Kansas land. Many of the students study politi- cal science or economics, while others are inter- ested in the journalism school, peculiar to Ameri- ca. Others like the availability of cur study ma- terials. Our campus politics bring a bemused smile, for they see no reason to develop many leaders and use few. They go to International Club, and these are hours to remember. An American enters the room and is a million miles from Lawrence. There is the chatter in many languages, there is the music of an era, or a people, there may be dancing. One night the South Americans re- membered a song, and while Luis Uribe played the persuasive piano, Mario Weitzner beats out the indelible rhythm on an upturned wastebasket while the room started to rumba. The countries vie to give parties. Once they had a bicycle trip and a passerby would have thought it was a 347 Austrian display represents their science, sports and music. hostel tour through Europe. The British are the speakers, masters at the mike, and everyone is always anxious to hear them talk, for after a sentence or two, the people start to laugh, and it is a heartening thing to see the rapport and the absence of any tension when potential sparring partners can smile at their own foibles. This semester, the International Club has been more active than ever, putting on a program nearly every week, and frequently drawing crowds of two hundred. The International Set numbers many Americans, ranging from faculty to freshmen. Their common denomina- tor is a desire to gain and impart knowledge of the world about us. You don ' t have to be a globe-trotter to belong; the club aims to bring the world to you, and bring it alive. It ' s not the dust from learned books that flies when this crowd gets together, it ' s the dust from the floor, as the Latin-American band makes everyone dance La Raspa! Under the presidency of Nigel Kermode (Great Britain) , assisted by Tilahun Wubneh (Ethiopia, vice-president), Cesar Piana (Argen- tina, treasurer) , Claire Alder (Switzerland, sec- retary) , and a committee of Danial Hillen (Hol- Meria Beltran and Ayda Lopez from Colombia enjoy a stroll through the festive booths with Arturo DeBarry of Venezuela. Swiss yodelers entertain with folksongs of their homeland. A Lawrence home assumes an international atmosphere with these students as guests. land), Sigurd Rambusc h (Denmark) and Nao- mitsu Takashina ( Japan), the International Club has pursued an avowedly social policy, be- ginning the meetings with a program put on by the representatives of one country or group of countries. This is followed by a general dance. Thus the Hawaiian students of KU came along to interpret the Hula, and beguile us with their native songs. The Austrians, on another occa- sion, celebrated their country ' s accession to the UN with a talk by Josef Steidl, some docu- mentary films, and then the formal opening of the Viennese ball, with a polonaise and waltz. In somewhat different vein, the International Club in March presented a Salon Litteraire at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ziesenis. Ilse Haus- sleiter (Germany) presented some anecdotes on national characters, Rodolfo Salaveria (Philip- pines) read his own poems, and Jim Wiley (USA) talked about Ernest Hemingway. Filling the job of ski instructors on the Y-sponsored trip to Winter Park are Walter Kintsch, Austria; Esko Nie- minen, Finland; Josef Steidl, Austria; and Hans Chris- tensen, Norway. 349 350 Japanese students gather for a group discussion.

Outstanding in the field of sculpture is Veloso Albueva of the Philippines. In April, the Oranim group from Haifa, Israel, gave a professional display of the richly varied folksongs and dances of that country, and in May, the Slavic Kolo dance group came over from Kansas City to put on an excellent pro- gram of Yugoslav dances. One of the tenets of the club ' s constitution is to acquaint members with the different ways of life in this country and abroad. This year saw the fulfillment of this tenet. Anyone on the market floor now feels he ' s bought some stock in peace. It ' s also an honor- able feeling for him to think he is in the room with so many outstanding students, many of them Fulbright scholars. Perhaps it is true that exceptional people are the kindest, for at the In- ternational Club, no one looks lonely. The Foreign Student festival is an hour of pride. Many valuable articles are brought and displayed. You see the skillful craftsmanship of Swedish glass, or Chinese ivory, of fans and screens and rosaries and jewelry. The ballroom is a museum for a day, and a theater at night. The soulful dancing of the Orient, the inviting steps of the Latins, the music that is everyplace, carnival time, and there are pamphlets on the these call to you now and will echo later. The tables describing tours, as if you were on the booths remind you of a market scene during point of departure. Sponsored by the International Club, the foreign students enjoy a good soccer game. O IH,ngines and Ingenuity by Marjorie Heard THE ENGINEERS have always been noted for their tendency to stay up most of the night, but the night of April 19 and the early morning hours of April 20 were exceptional, even for Engineers. All through the night, lights blazed and hammers pounded on the west end of the campus. At 9 o ' clock Friday morning, the proj- ects were finished; the doors were open, and the public began viewing the 36th Annual Engineer- ing Exposition which was held on April 20 and 21 this year. This account of the last minute activities is somewhat misleading, because for weeks the stu- dent departmental chairmen and their commit- tees had been planning and building under the 352 watchful eye of Jim Adam, mechanical engi- neering senior and general chairman of the event. For weeks the typewriters and presses had been turning out advance publicity on the event, and an estimated 15,000 persons responded by com- ing to see the Exposition. Although the fact is not always realized out- side the Engine School, the Engineering Exposi- tion is entirely student planned and managed. Faculty advice is available and often used, but the main responsibility for the success of this annual show is assumed by the students. As visitors began viewing the Exposition, they passed through the entranceway, which repre- sented a giant, whirling earth satellite and the Candy mine taking form in the Mining and Metal- lurgy department by Ted Eckert and George Schroeder. three stage rocket that would be used to launch it. This engineering feat was designed and built by the members—or pledges—of Theta Tau, professional engineering fraternity. As the pub- lic progressed into the halls of Marvin, they were told to turn right, folks—just follow the blue arrows, by members of Tau Beta Pi, honorary engineering society. Thus began a long and foot- Don White displays a machine to deter- mine the friction coefficient of materials. tiring tour of the best that the various depart- ments could produce.

Second place went to the architects for their Human City. This was a giant scale model of a Utopian city of the future, showing the inte- gration of the architect, the engineer, and the landscape designer in planning for better living. Many visitors were openly impressed by the promise in this exhibit. The mining and metallurgical engineers took third place by building and operating the Big Rock Candy Mine. Both kids and adults were entranced as a power shovel scooped up a mix- ture of candy and bran from an open pit and loaded it into an electric train. They watched eagerly as the ore was refined by a series of processes which separated away the bran and left the candy as a finished product. An honorable mention award went to the electrical engineers. In this exhibit the visitors felt three inches tall by comparison as they were Tomorrow ' s highway, the Kansas turnpike, shown in the Civil Engineers ' display. guided through a giant model of the underside of the chassis of a common 5 -tube radio. Although these four exhibits were rewarded with prizes, many others attracted a great deal of attention. One of these was the hyperbolic paraboloid, built by the architectural engineers. This huge warped plane still graces the lawn in front of Lindley and represents a revolutionary idea in building design. The aeronautical engineers turned the back room of their quonset hut into three airports. These demonstrated the evolution of the airport from gas lantern lighting to provisions for radio- active take-offs. The civil engineers built a scale model of a section of the eagerly awaited Kansas Turnpike. This included the Ka w- River Bridge and the East Lawrence Interchange and duly impressed most motorists. The first flight into space was on the minds of the engineering physicists as they built their intricate and complete full-scale model of the artificial satellite soon to be launched. They also included a model of the rocket that will take the satellite into space. These and many other exhibits displayed the ingenuity and hard work of the Engineers at KU. On the whole, the projects demonstrated not what has been done, but the promise that engineering holds for the future. This is prob- ably significant, but the weary men who closed the doors at noon on Saturday and trudged off to the Relays, to bed, or back to the neglected books didn ' t ponder the question at that moment.

APRIL 20 was not like just any Spring Friday for it marked the beginning of the Kansas Relays Weekend. In front of Marvin Hall a round sec- tion, of what looked like stovepipe, whirled above the entrance to the Engineering Exhibi- tion. In classrooms could be heard the booming of the loudspeaker in the stadium as the relays got under way with college preliminary and high school events. Class attendance throughout the day fell steadily as the warm weather, float building, and the track meet made school work too great a strain. Around the hill Friday nigh t, floodlights il- luminated groups of workers stuffing paper napkins, hammering and arguing over the tech- nical details of their floats. But amidst all this, globes and Greek gods, kangaroos and ships be- gan to take shape from chicken wire and paper. Many worked all night to complete their color- ful displays, only finishing the final touches early Saturday morning. Saturday classes were forgotten in the morn- ing rush. Students, parents and visitors swarmed through the Engineering Exposition, some un- Up and over at the water hurdle. derstanding what was going on and others just looking impressed. One exhibit which particu- larly attracted attention was the Human City, a miniature of the metropolis of the future, com- plete to its night time lighting system. Groups of Boy Scouts roamed about the hill, part of the two hundred or so here for their an- nual Eskuree (Explorer Scout Kansas University Relays) get-together. Near South Park the floats assembled for the parade around ten o ' clock. Campus beauties and. athletes covered with grease paint climbed aboard the various displays for the mile-long ride down Massachusetts. One fraternity was noti- fied that its float had been disqualified because some of the lumber used in making it had been requisitioned from a University construction project. The float entered the column of others in spite of the discovery. At the Delta Tau Delta float the torch above the cab of the truck was being lit w hen sud- denly some of the flames spread to the paper on the front of the float. A frantic attempt was made to put out the fire but was unsuccessful. The driver was quickly helped out after a few tense minutes. A fire truck arrived to extinguish the flames, but the float was ruined and was sadly driven back to the Delt house. But the parade went on.

The overweight Statue of Liberty that topped the DU float passed by and the spectators closed in as the parade moved on toward the still wait- ing crowd. Traffic jams followed the rush back from the parade. Fraternities greeted rushees with friendly handshakes. Lunch seemed more confused than ever. The Union was packed and everyone was in a hurry. Shortly after one o ' clock, people flocked into Memorial Stadium to watch some of the nation ' s top athletes vie for honors. Wilt Chamberlain stole the show by never once tak- ing off his plaid golf cap, not for the high jump or the hop-step-jump, in which he placed fourth. Bill Neider broke a relays record, though some KU fans were disappointed that he did not throw the shot over sixty feet. Another record was broken during the afternoon, this time a world record, by the University of Texas team for the quarter mile relay. Movies, restaurants, the Union ballroom and the local night spots were jammed on Saturday evening as hundreds of couples ended an excit- ing weekend in the traditional style of a Satur- day night date.

Cap on the amateur Stilt. In addition to this fine showing, the Jayhawks also dominated their own Kansas Relays, made a fiasco out of the Texas Relays, and turned in an impressive showing in the rain-soaked Drake Relays. An injured back suffered by ace javelin thrower Les Bitner ruined all the Kansas hopes for an unheard-of weight sweep in all of the Midwest ' s three biggest track carnivals. With Nieder winning the shot, sophomore standout Al Oerter dominating the discus scene, and Bitner winning at both Texas and KU, the Kansans missed only the javelin throw at Drake in their bid for complete domination of the weight events. However, the weightmen had to share the glory with a terrific all-around squad which was strong in almost every event. Sophomore Kent Floerke actually won three championships, copping the broad jump at the Texas Relays and winning the hop-step-and- jump at both Kansas and Drake. The Jayhawks also won the four-mile relay at all three meets, relying on the foursome of Jan Howell, Hal Long, Jerry McNeal and Al Frame. Sprinter Dick Blair played the role of brides- maid throughout the Relay campaign, being nip- ped at the tape by Bobby Whilden at both the Texas and KU games, and chasing Whilden and 360 Perplexed Barry Crawford rests after missing a hurdle.

Nieder ' s gigantic effort topped all perform- ances, but Oerter threw the discus 174 feet 3 inches to take a share of the spotlight. Oerter and. Nieder also added second places in the shot and discus. Kansas swept the mile, with Long, Frame and Howell finishing in that order; the broad jump, with Floerke, Frank Mastin and Blaine Hollin- ger; the javelin, with Bitner, Jim Londerholm and John Parker, and the two-mile, with Mc- Neal, Rupp and Nicholson. Other Kansas winners included Bob Cannon, who won the high jump and Lowell Janzen in the 880-yard run. Front row: Bob Lida, Clark Mock, Larry Tharp, Bob Cormack, Bob Smith, (Asst.

WITH their eyes set on bringing home the Big Seven Championship this spring, KU ' s tennis team got off to a promising start in their early season matches. KU ' s fine young coach, Dick Mechem, was blessed with three returning lettermen around which to build his squad. Top man among the returnees was Bob Riley, from Rockhurst High School of Kansas City. As a Sophomore last year Riley earned the number one singles position on the Jayhawk squad, and then went on to claim the Big Seven singles championship. Dave Kane was again KU ' s number two singles player and teamed with Riley for the top doubles combina- tion. Dick Hadley, the third returning letter- man, was nestled at the number five spot at mid-season. Two newcomers worked their way into the third and fourth positions. Sophomore Gene Kane, younger brother of Dave Kane, played consistently good tennis during the first part of the season and was right behind brother Dave. Bud Burke, a senior, out for tennis for the first time worked his way up to the fourth spot by combining skill and determination. The remain- ing positions on the team were battled for by Roger Alberty, Phil Rein, Bruce Wenger, and Bob Patterson. Re turning to spark this year ' s team is Big Seven singles champ Bob Riley.

WITH last year ' s Big Seven. individual cham- pion returning, a nucleus of two lettermen and two outstanding sophomore prospects, Coach Mike Chalfant will field one of KU ' s best links teams of the past few years. Coach Chalfant, a first year law student, who took over the reins from retiring coach Don Ev- erett, is a former KU golfer from Hutchinson. With an already impressive record of ten wins in sixteen outings in dual competition with only one conference match lost, that being to Okla- homa, Kansas is slated to dominate Big Seven tourney play. Of the five non-conference de- feats, three were at the hands of teams rank- ing in the top five of collegiate golf squads- SMU, Houston and Oklahoma A M. In addition to the regular team members, the Jayhawker par shooters will have the services of Gene Elstun, who is as well known in golf circles as on the basketball court as evidenced by his Kansas City match play championship of last summer. Gene will strengthen club hopes of returning from Manhattan this year with the conference trophy. Crimson and Blue hopes also rest on the shoul- ders of team captain Bob Richards to repeat as 363 Big Seven conference champion as well as master the fifty-four hole circuit at the Manhattan Country Club in sub-par form. Besides Rich- ards and. Elstun, Bill Sayler, Ed MacGee, Jim Davies and Noel Rooney round out this year ' s varsity squad. In addition to the varsity, a fine group of freshman linksmen composed of Bob Wood, Bill Toalson, Glenn Kindred and Wayne Manning completed a near perfect season losing only to the varsity in match play. Captain Bob Richards drives as foursome Ed MacGee, Jim Davies, J. P. Jones and Bill Sayler look on. 364 by Jim Londerholm WITH the coming of spring, Jayhawk baseball prospects loomed high. After a seventh place finish last year Coach Floyd Temple was deter- mined that his team would place much higher in the conference this year. The season opened with a road trip through the South. The trip proved to be a success as the Jays racked up victories over Memphis 13-0, and Arkansas 7-1 and 12-9. Playing at Wichita the Jayhawkers increased their winning streak to five games as they took a double-header from. the Shockers. Baseball The bench--board of strategy. In the first home game of the season the Jay- hawkers pounded out a 12-4 win over Rockhurst. Playing the Rockhurst nine again, this time on their home diamond the Kansans came through on top of a 6-5 score. The Jays now had a seven game winning streak, but the percentages caught up with them as the Wildcats of Kansas State took a 2-1 decision. Revenge was sweet the next day as the Jayhawk batsmen bombarded the Wildcats 19-1. Sophomore Ron Wiley was the big gun for Kansas as he slammed out two homers and turned in a superb pitching job. The Jays were a polite host to the visiting Oklahoma Soon- ers in the next contest, Oklahoma winning by an 8-7 margin. The great improvement of Coach Temple ' s squad was attributed partly to the indoor facili- ties provided by the Allen Fieldhouse. Coach Temple ' s boys began loosening up and getting into shape in early February. Batting eyes were sharpened by the addition of an automatic pitch- ing machine in the fieldhouse. The Jayhawk nine was led by hard hitting outfielder Bob Conn, who was also the team cap- tain. Other returning lettermen on the squad included pitchers Bob Shirley, Gary Fenity and Fuzzy Martin; infielders Punky Hoglund, and Don. Pfutzenreuter; and outfielders Don Stein- meyer and Don Dixon. Other key men in the Kansas lineup were, Barry Donaldson, catcher; Jim Trombold, first base; Barry Robertson, shortstop; Ron Wiley, pitcher; and. Eddie Dater in the outfield. With seven games remaining on the schedule KU was still in the thick of the race for the Big Seven Crown.

THE INTRAMURAL program here at KU has its basis in athletic contests between various student groups dating from the first years of the univer- sity. It wasn ' t until 1920, however, that an in- tramural program as such was established. Then as now, the intramurals were coordinated by members of the faculty in the physical educa- tion department. Through the years sport after sport has been added until the present ten sports were included in the program. At present individual champions are crowned in the fall in badminton, horseshoes, handball, tennis and golf in single elimination tourna- ments. Team competition is then held during the spring for these sports, with the champions of the various leagues competing for the hill championship.

You just play it. That was the discouraging yet ironic advice of Dr. James A. Naismith in 1907, upon hearing that a 23-year-old student was planning to coach his newly-invented game of basketball at Baker University. Despite a genuine respect for the man who spoke these words, Dr. Forrest C. Allen has de- voted a lifetime to the mockery of them and, in the process, has become the greatest single figure in the game of basketball. Scheduled to retire at the close of this aca- demic year, the Kinghawk of the Kaw can look back over a career unparalleled in this half cen- tury. He has been coaching 46 years, 39 of which have been spent at the helm of Kansas squads. His colorful career also includes spans at Haskell Institute, Baker University, and War- rensburg Teachers College. Allen ' s teams have won outright or shared 31 conference championships. Twenty-four of these have been taken at Kansas, thereby netting him more than half the titles in the history of the Missouri Valley, Big Six, and Big Seven, during a span of 47 years. This means that in three leagues, Allen ' s Jayhawkers have won more crowns than all other conference competitors combined. In 1952, the Clyde Lovellette-led Jayhawkers swept the Big Seven and NCAA championships, and then joined forces with the Peoria Cater- pillar-Diesels to capture the Olympic title for the United States. But the Phog Allen story is not to be told in mere won-lost percentages and conference titles. His contributions to the game alone have in- sured. Dr. Allen of a niche in sportsdom ' s hall of fame. Allen was one of the founders of the National Association of Basketball Coaches and its first president from 1929-31. He was a mem- ber of the basketball rules committee for 13 years from 1926 to 1939, serving once as its vice- president. He was almost single-handedly re- sponsible for getting the game of basketball into the Olympic Games in 1936 and was also instru- mental in founding the NCAA tournament. 370 Forrest C. Allen was born November 18, 1885, in Jamesport, Mo., the fourth of six sons born to William T. and Alexine Allen. The Allen boys were an athletic lot, participating in foot- ball, basketball, baseball, and tennis despite their father, who was bitterly opposed to athletics. You ' re wasting your time and you ' ll never amount to anything that way, Mr. Allen said. But basketball was Forrest ' s real love. In 1902, he followed his next oldest brother, Harry B. (Pete) , and joined the Modern Woodmen of America basketball squad in Kansas City. The following year, 1903, was a significant one for young Allen. He joined the Kansas City Athletic Club, where he was to enjoy great success as a player, and he met Dr. James A. Naismith, the inventor of the game, who was to be his life- long colleague and friend. In 1904, Allen was elected manager of the KCAC Blue Diamonds and the squad was undefeated. The autumn of 1904 saw the six Allen broth- ers form their own basketball team. Homer, the Coach of the year in 1950, Phog poses with his trophy. A familiar sight for the last 39 years, Dr. Allen prepares to go out on the court. oldest brother at 28, was the substitute, while Richard was the youngest starter at 13. The Allens played together for the next four seasons and lost but one disputed game, 40-39, to Baker University. During this period the Aliens easily whipped the toughest competition in this area including both the Universities of Missouri and Kansas, Baker, and the KCAC. Allen entered the University of Kansas in the fall of 1905. He played both football and bas- ketball his freshman year but only basketball during the next two seasons. While at KU, Allen established a record for most points scored by an individual in a single game which was to stand for 35 years. In 1908 Allen began the first of what proved to be 46 years in the coaching profession. The 23-year-old youth piloted both Baker University and the University of Kansas, and his combined record for the season was a sparkling 42 wins against 6 defeats. The following season, Allen added Haskell Institute under his coaching wing and finished that season with the amazing com- bined total of 71 wins and 10 losses. Phog made what he considers to be his smart- est move in 1908 when he married Elizabeth Milton, a graduate of Warrensburg State Teach- ers College. In addition to her wonderful abili- ties as a mother, Phog says, Mrs. Allen has served as the balance wheel for me. Her aid has • ' ) 371 Panorama of events in a famous career.

The Aliens have raised six children and two of his sons, Milton and. Bob, were both All-Americans at KU under their father. Just what are some of Dr. Allen ' s successful coaching techniques? Over the years, Allen has drilled his squads tirelessly on fundamentals. It has always been Doe ' s contention that you do not lose a game; you beat yourself with your own mistakes. In spite of his fantastic basketball coaching record, most KU students do not realize Allen ' s role in the historical promotion of Jayhawk ath- letics. His pet projects included a new stadium and student union. The Memorial Stadium, with a seating capacity of 38,000, was often referred to as Phog ' s Folly as many shortsighted observers felt that a capacity crowd could never be achieved. In 1923, Allen founded the Kansas Relays which now ranks as one of the nation ' s outstanding outdoor cinder carnivals. It remained for 1955 to produce what was probably Allen ' s finest hour in K.0 athletics with the dedication of the 2 dollar 17,000- seat Allen Fieldhouse. Originally proposed. in 1927 by Dr. Allen, then Director of Athletics, the fieldhouse was delayed by a depression and a world. war. One hundred and three K.ansas bas- ketball lettermen from 1898 to 1953 were pres- ent as Governor Fred Hall dedicated the massive structure, named after a living faculty member in. a precedent-shattering move. At least 21 men. have received All-American mention at KU under Allen ' s tutelage. This group includes such all-time stars as Paul Enda- cott, both Charlie Blacks, Tus Ackerman, Fred. Pralle, Milt Allen, Howard Engleman, Bob Allen, Ralph Miller, Ray Evans, Clyde Lovel- lette, B. H. Born, and Dallas Dobbs. Strangely enough, Dr. Allen ' s nationally fa- mous nickname was born on a baseball diamond and not in connection with the basketball court. Allen was an active umpire in the Lawrence area and liked to voice his ball and strike decisions with considerable gusto. A local sportswriter decided his voice resembled a foghorn, later shortened. it to fog and finally, embellishing the word with a curious spelling, came up with the tag of Phog. And Phog ' s ringing voice has been announcing its owner ' s decisions with gusto for many years. 372 The young coach, Dr. Allen, visits with basketball in- Kansas vs. Kentucky. Dr. Allen with his one-time pupil, ventor Dr. James Naismith. Adolph Rupp. As a result, Phog has seldom been out of the news. His verbal feuds with famous sports per- sonalities such as ex-Kansas State cage coach Jack Gardner and ex-LaSalle mentor Ken Loef- fler have spiced up many a dreary sports page. AAU official Henry Henshel is currently suing Allen for slander after a few of Doc ' s caustic comments concerning the Wes Santee case, and a certain colonel in the Brooklyn Band. I have never hesitated to call a spade a spade, is the way Allen sums it up. Possessed of a hearty constitution, Dr. Allen has traveled at a tremendous pace all his life and shows no signs of slowing down at the age of 70. Besides taking an active role in Lawrence com- munity affairs, Allen is also famous for his ability as a writer and a speaker. He has written three books and, in addition, is in constant de- mand as a speaker throughout the midwest. He estimates that he delivers between 250 and 3 00 speeches every year. And during the past season, Dr. Allen also had a half-hour TV show from Topeka. Certainly, Dr. Allen towers on the American sports scene. His retirement will be a milestone in KU athletics as well as a severe loss to the coaching profession. A 17,000-seat fieldhouse bears his name in lasting memorial, but the thou- sands of students who have played for Doc or watched his squads in action will not need this great structure in future years to remind them of Forrest C. Allen. With Allen Field House towering in the background as a shrine to 39 years of service, Forrest C. (Phog) Allen will retire this spring bringing an end to an era at KU. 373 Batter up !
