LLEGE ROUNDUP:

Minnesota's YP Hit
Circulation Snags.

By NANCY BYLAN
Young Progressives at the Uni-
versity of Minnesota are having
troubles.
Zealously determined to circu-
lte the Stockholm Peace Appeal
On their campus, despite its "Red"
_rand, they planned a 'summer-
kng campaign for signatures, in-
eluding a giant student peace-rally
and an "Atom Blues" Dance
ldance away those atom blues).
OPPOSITION, however, finally
with
WENDY OWEN
Bob Keeshan, the wordless
lown Clarabell, scourge of the-
'jowdy Doody teletision show,
ose from part-time page at NBC
to his present position in a mere
hree years to prove that a lot of
unpredictable things happen in
television.
He met Bob Smith, Howdy Doo-
dy's emcee, when Smith first came
to NBC from Buffalo in 1947, and
oined with him as man-Friday to
do behind-the-scenes production
Jobs.'
* * *
ONE TIME Smith needed a prop
out in front of the cameras, and
KPeshan went out, dressed in dap-
per business suit, to give it to him.
This went on for several perform-
,4ces minus Smith's wholehearted
aproval. But finally he relented,
Biggesting that Keeshan wear a
clown suit at his next appearance.
Ad Keeshan; when he went into
e-up, drew a tremendous res-
pse from the Howdy Doody
1,.t.ners.
Glarabell was in. Ringling
Brothers Circus now boasts a
permanent Clarabell of its own,
and another Clarabell is opera-
ting at a Long Island beach.
Keeshan himself, is an Irish-
oboking gent with curly brown hair
jd a father who was born in Tip-
prary. He's building model rail-
toa4 cars for relaxation these days.
AN NBC employe spotted
Wanted" criminal Myron Selik a
few minutes after the fugitive had
been described on the "Wanted"i
program. The manhunt still con-
tnues.t
PROF. HAROLD C. UREY, of
ythe University of Chicago declared,
'I don't want to see a hydrogen
bomb built," over the air recently.
'But if there's the remotest pos-
sibility one can be built, I want
,Ainerica to know about it."
EVERYONE'S TUNING in to
hear the evening news since the
Korean war started, according to
a- recent Hooper Survey. Theset
newscasts rates are up 76 per centt
over last year.

THE JAZZ FIENDS who back
the "Chamber Music Society oft
Lower Basin Street," an NBC show
aired Saturdays, all have back-
grounds in classical music, inter-
views have shown.
Fuchs To Speak on
'Theatre' Tuesday
Theodore Fuchs, director of the-
atre at Northwestern University,
will speak on the "Theatre" be-
fore the Graduate Speech Sym-s
posium at 4 p.m. Tuesday in the I
Fest Conference Room of Rack- c

forced the YP chairman to call a
meeting to discuss plans for end-
ing the peace campaign.
But only one person showed
by at the meeting. He was not
a member of the YP.
Meanwhile, the sheriff of Min-
neapolis announced that his com-
mittee on internal security is
keeping close tab on circulators of
the peace petitions.
MINNESOTA was also having
fire problems. A barn at the Uni-
versity's agricultural station at
Morris burned down, leaving one
bull as yet, unaccounted for.
The barn's 60 head of Hol-
stein cattle were in pasture at
the time of the conflagration,
which is believed to have been
caused by the spontaneous com-
bustion of hay stored in the
barn.
In the midst of all this chaos,
the University of Minnesota began
plans for its one-hundredth birth-
day celebration which will last the
entire academic year from July,
1950 to July, 1951, according to the
proclamation of Gov. Luther W.
Youngdahl.

At the University of Hawaii, a
rule that editors of campus publi-
cations must have had at least
one course in journalism cheated
the managing editor of Ka Leo out
of promotion to the position of
editor-in-chief.
The board of publication ruled
that the managing editor's
newspaper training was equiva-
lent to a formal course in jour-
nalism, but their decision was
overridden by the student coun-
cil, which appointed an asso-
ciate editor to the chief position.
The journalism department also
figured significantly at the Uni-
versity 'of Illinois, where three
journalism faculty members were
appointed advisers to the Daily
Illini.
The publisher of the Illini em-
phasized, that. the faculty mem-
bers would not have censorship
over the paper but would merely
act in a consultant capacity.
* * *
OTHER PUBLICATION news
from the University of Illinois re-
vealed the appearance of a new
campus magazine, "Illinois Caper,"
scheduled to hit the newstands in
October and every month there-
after.
"Caper" will feature campus
and city highlights as well as so-
ciety, fashion and sports. Ar-
ticles will be written with a de-
emphasis on sex and low humor.
Its staff expects "Caper" to be a
cross between Life and the New
Yorker.

SUMMER WEATHER proved'
too much for a column-writer on
the Silver and Gold, student news-
paper at the University of Colo-
rado. He offered what he called a
"math nifty" as the antidote for
too much studying:
"Write down your age.
"Multiply by 2.
"Add 5.
"Multiply by 50.
"Subtract 365.
"Add the amount of all the
loose change in your pocket un-
der a dollar.
"Add 115.
"The first two figures of that
result are your age, and the last
two are your change."
For the convenience of Univer-
sity of Michigan students The
Daily's mathematical expert has
condensed this problem into a
simpler form: 100x plus y.,

MUTE TESTIMONY OF DAYS OF YORE-Pre-Haven Hall conflagration days are recalled by
these doors, formerly leading 'to the sanctity of history professors' offices, leaning forlornly up
against a tree in front of the gaunt, 87-year old wreck that used to be a University landmark. As yet
none of the professors whose names appear on the doors have bothered to buy the doors, which are
up for sale with all the rest of the remains of Haven Hall.
