Bosox fire team manager
BOSTON—Darrrell Johnson, who led the Boston Red Sox to one victory a World Series championship in 1975, was fired yesterday. A club statement said it
Third base coach Don Zimmer was named manager for the rest of the season. The Red Sox, who carried the Cincinnati Reds into the ninth inning of the seventh game before the World Series last October, changed managers while in fifth place during the first half and behind the division-leading New York Yankees in defense of their AL pennant.
"In my opinion it was time for a change. But I wouldn't change anything I did one bit," Johnson said.
Kansas flood aid readied
TOPEKA—An agreement designed to clear the way for allocation of federal disaster funds in a 10-county southeast Kansas area was signed yesterday by Gov. Robert B. Bennett and Francis X. Tobin, regional director of the Federal Disaster Assistance Administration.
The agreement covers Butler, Cherokee, Cowley, Crawford, Elk, Greenwood,
Labette, Montgomery, Neosho and Wilson counties.
the area was hit by severe flooding following torrential rains that fell July 24. Meanwhile, a shortage of available housing units for victims of the recent floods in southeast Kansas was reported yesterday by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
HUD officials said the situation was particularly serious in the communities of Riveton, Galena and Baxter Springs.
Cons sought in kidnapping
CHOWCHILLA, Calif.—Authorities were investigating the possibility yesterday that three doctors — former former doctors — were responsible for last week's shooting at a hospital in California, but bus driver
A law enforcement source in the San Joaquin Valley, where this small town is located, said an all-points bulletin was issued for three men based on an informant's statement that while in San Quentin Prison he overheard three fellow inmates planning a revenge plot.
Rough campaign predicted
KANSS CITY — Columnist Jack Anderson predicted yesterday that President Card would win the Republican nomination and there would be “Watergate-style” voting. He said he was confident that his campaign would win.
"The research they've dug up refers to all of his favorite theologians as being pro-Communist and tries to brand him as favoring laws benefiting homosexuals." Anderson told a news conference. He was in Kansas City to address the Independent Truckers Association convention.
"If they use that research I think we're going to see some Watergate-style campaigning," Anderson said.

Negligent dog owners to pay increased fees
Man's and student's best friend is the subject of recent revisions in the Lawrence University Journal.
By COURTNEY THOMPSON
Staff Writer
An increase in both impoundment fees and the authority of animal control officers to issue citations for specific violations are measures designed to promote owners' compliance by hitting a sensitive spot—the pocketbook.
Gilizens charged with violations will be prosecuted in Municipal Court and may be tried on conviction. Fees for repeated impoundments have also been increased.
MIKE WILDGEN, assistant city manager, said yesterday that a major source of the dog problem in Lawrence came from students at the University of
He said that, although students live primarily in apartments or single rooms (residence hall or rooming house), they seem to prefer large dogs. These dogs, St. Bernard's, Shepard and Collies, aren't most student living situations, Wildlife see.
"It's not hard to understand that these large dogs just don't get along well in small apartments," he said. "People let the dog run at a night as a reward for being cooped up all day. They usually back home but unfortunately not always."
Wildglen said he'd had reports of packs of dogs running together around the campus
JANE HELLSTROM of the Lawrence Humane Society said a marked increase in the number of stray dogs picked up occurred twice each year.
"The biggest problem is when the KU school year begins and ends," she said. "When students come to Lawrence in the fall they let their dogs run loose to get them accustomed to the strange place. Then when school is over, they decide the don't dog anymore and we take it too much trouble to take it back home with them."
Hellstrom said students tended to leave big dogs behind when school was out because they thought they couldn't take care of them anymore.
SUA sponsors noon serenades for Strong Hall
Students ambling through Strong Hall at noon next spring will be serenaded by campus musicians as part of a five-week program "program sponsored by SUA Fine Arts.
The lunch hour concerts, poetry readings and art are scheduled between Feb. 10 and March 6, Howard Collinson, Fine Arts board member, said Friday.
*Accent the Ars'* will focus on artists, poets and musicians from the University of Wisconsin.
Although the program highlights KU musicians, they will perform during "Accent the Art."
Joffrey II, a team company from New York is by invitation to II City Center, will dance with the company.
Robert Joffrey, the troupe's sponsor, is one of the moving forces in American dance.
Louis Falo, a modern choreographer and dancer, and his seven-member New York troup will appear Oct. 27 in Hoch Auditorium.
Mistreatment of pets doesn't occur at only those two times of the year, however. He was not given a pet for the last semester of a student keeping his dog in a car because dorm regulations didn't allow dogs in rooms. She said she was at least two trips daily to check on the dog.
"I LEFT the student a warning on his car window, explaining that the weather was too warm for an animal to be kept in a car like that. The next day the dog wasn't there, so it's anybody's guess what happened to the animal," she said.
Wildgen said that another problem was that students often weren't used to paying the $10 fee for impoundment of their dog. The fee increases $10 with each subsequent impoundment, and in addition there is a $2 daily boarding fee.
"A lot of students say they don't have the money to pay these impoundment fees or citation penalties. But I can't understand how those who say they can't afford these costs can afford the pet in the first place," he said.
"All residents and students with dogs should make appropriate arrangements to properly care for their animal," he said. "I worry that they refuse to take care of their animals."
. Copies of the revised ordinance are
available at city offices or from the
Hamilton Society.
Wildgen also said that animal control officers had reported trouble with students in the district.
He encouraged students to familiarize themselves with the new ordinance and its requirements. Issuance of citations for five listed violations, mandatory rabies enforcement of the leash law are areas the student should be aware of. Wildden said.

"I CAN just see that situation—the dog becomes a 'cause' and the students defend the animal against the officer trying to do his job." Widden said.
He said Lawrence had no license requirements for dogs because, generally, people who bought problems weren't the ones causing problems with their pets.

Little known poet incisive, prof says
By MELISSA STEINEGER
The incisive poetry of a once-known New Jersey doctor, William Carlos Williams, places him among the top five American poetos of the first half of the 20th century, according to Richard Colyer, professor of English.
Colyer discussed Williams, the doctor and poet, in a lecture in the Continuing American Revolution series last night in Swarthout Hall.
Ten of the applicants are from Kansas,
which said. The new appointment will
be taken on Monday.
Williams ranks with Robert Frost, Ezra Pound, T. S. Elliot and Wallace Stevens, but Williams and Stevens will emerge as the leaders during period in the next 10 years, Colyer said.
"He did not go to an ivory tower, he did not even go to a retreat, he had a typewriter
WILLIAMS DEVOTED about 70 per cent of his life's energy to the practice of medicine and still produced an impressive effect on poetry. Colver said.
"It is a descent into the self . . us
ourselves . . as Americans and as in-
gressive."
The application deadline for the post was mursley and the Board met Friday for a response. The application deadline for the post was mursley and the Board met Friday for a response.
This describes Williams poetry, also, said. Colyer said. There is no buried meaning in the poetry, he said, rather a visual imagery that touches.
Max Bickford, who is retiring, held the post since 1961.
in a cubby-hole of an office and wrote poetry between patients." said Colver.
Regents review 75 applications for Board post
This is the essential point, that the poetry evoke some subjective feeling or spark, he said. It isn't watching a polar bear in a noo, he explained, but being 10 feet away from
poetry in the American Grain," no book by Williams, best explains his poetry.
The Kansas Board of Regents is reviewing 75 applications for the position of executive officer to the Regents, chairman Glee Smith said yesterday.
WILLIAMS USED imagism, Coller said. Imagination is centering things on a visual image and working outward to create a new way of writing poetry.
Smith said that references were being contacted now and that the Board would narrow the field of candidates to eight or 10 after the next meeting on Aug. 13.
"We will conduct interviews in early September and announce our decision later."
Imagists go back to the idea of poets being the namer of the world, the idea that they gave the world life by naming it, Colyer said.
He said Williams believed it was only enough dealing directly with real objects or images to be an actor.
