19 magazines printed on Lawrence presses
Question: Where are National Lampoon and Family Health printed? Answer: Lampoon and Family Health printed.
That's right. Those and other nationally known magazines are printed in Lawrence by Kansas Color Press, Inc., 2201 Haskell Aye.
Kansas Color Press prints 19 different magazines from National Lampoon to TV magazine.
STEVE JACOB, director of personnel,
said Tuesday that the company moved from Liberal to Lawrence in 1953. It was a family-owned business until 1974, he said, when R.G. Zimmerman sold it to John Smith.
Work Basket, a women's magazine that orders about 1,885,000 copies monthly, is the largest account for Kansas Color Press, he said.
JACOBA SJOAI that National Lampoons run
about 1,200,000 copies monthly, and that TV
would be available for free.
Family Health prints about 1,500,000 and family Society Record about 700,000 copies may be purchased.
each week for the Kansas and Missouri region.
Other magazines and their printing orders are: VFW-1,750,000; Elks-1,671,000;
The Moose-1,171,000; The Lion-717,000; 1,001 Home Decorator-750,000; Bon Appetit-500,000; Abundant Life-1,222,000;
Flower and Garden-605,000; Work Bench-
458,000; Future Farmer of America—
516,000; Kansas Farmer—180,000; Missouri
Ruralist—200,000; Pack of Fun—245,000;
and VF AWLert—500,000.
Jacob said that all the magazines are monthly, except TV Guide, Kansas Farmer and Missouri Ruralist, which are weeklies.
Ambulance service seeks grant
More advanced care than is now possible may be available to Douglas County Ambulance Service patients in the near future, a senior director of the service, said Wednesday.
TV GUILD is the only magazine of the three that isn't printed solely in Lawrence, he said. Kansas Color Press prints only the program section of TV Guide.
He said a target date of one year had been set by the service to implement improvements necessary for advanced enroute care if federal funds are received.
The ambulance service has asked for $42,000 from the federal government to finance the purchase of cardiac care and equipment. A team of four trained vaccination for six attendants, he said.
The equipment would include a defibrillator and a mobile transmitter to send electrocardiograms to the hospital from the scene of an emergency.
A defibrillator is a device used to restore the pumping motion of the heart, especially after a heart attack, by using an electrical current.
The ambulance service would also be able to send six attendants to the KU Medical Center for emergency mobile intensive care (EMIC) training, McFarlane said.
EMIcs are what most people consider paramedics, he said. There is now only one EMI in town.
The other attendants are all emergency medical technicians (EMT) who have completed a 100-hour training course coordinated by the Med Center.
EMT training is, basically, advanced first aid training. McFarlane said.
Until more attendants have received EMIC training, a one-year course at the Med Center, it would be pointless to acquire the cardiac care and monitoring equipment, he said. EMTs aren't qualified to operate the equipment.
If the equipment is purchased, Lawrence Memorial Hospital will have to acquire receiving equipment. That would allow doctors to analyze the conditions of patients and to order proper care while patients are enroute to the hospital, he said.
The 14 attendants at the service are certified EMTs. McFarlane said.
The new ambulance, one of four, is a modular one, he said. Much like a camper, the modular or box-like unit on the back is removable from the truck chassis it rides
on. Because of this, when the chassis wears on, the modular unit can be placed on a new one, saving money in the long run, McFarlane explained.
These improvements have resulted in higher costs to the users of the ambulance service, McFarlane said, but they have meant better service.
The base rate for an emergency call is $35
and $1.50 a mile, he said. A convalescent
call (nonemergency) is $30 and 75 cents a
mile.
Why do these magazines come to Lawrence for printing?
"Let's hope it's the service," Jacob said. He also said location, quality of work and the labor market here could be factors in attracting magazines.
Jacob said that a central location, such as lawrence, allowed equal distribution to all
The labor market in Lawrence could be a reason for magazines coming here, he said, because labor is generally cheaper here than in other parts of the country.
KANAS COLOR Press can offer its
client felt and a choice of letterpress
of 5 x 7 inch.
Kansas Color Press has five rotary press—three offset and two letterpress.
CIA chief Bush will speak here
George Bush, director of the Central Intelligence Agency, will speak at 8 p.m. on Monday.
The lecture is part of the Vickers Lecture Series, established in 1970. The top of the table lists:
Ex-pitcher warns of drugs
Bush rephased William Colby as head of the CIA when President Ford resuffled his cabinet in November. At that time, Bush was appointed by S. liaison office in Peking for 13 months.
He served as ambassador to the United Nations from 1970 until he became chairman of the Republican National Committee in 1972.
Don Newcombe, former major league pitcher, will be the featured teacher today during an alcohol and drug abuse workshop at Haskell Indian Junior College.
While U.N. ambassador, Bush came to Lawrence to address the Chamber of Commerce in a speech entitled, "Don't Give Up on the U.N."
Bush served two terms as a Republican Congressman for Texas from 1968 to 1972.
Newcombe pitched in the majors for 10
years, with the Brooklyn Dodgers and the
Cincinnati Reds. He is scheduled to speak at
10:45 a.m. in the Haskell auditorium.
The workshop, which started yesterday,
begins today at 9:30 a.m. and ends at
1:30 p.m.
Because of his active Republican political career, Bush's nomination as CIA director became controversial. Some congressmen believed that he was antisemitism, nonpolitical replacement for Colby.
Three years ago Haskell established an alcohol education and prevention program with a grant from the National Institute on Alcoholism and Alcohol Abuse.
NEWCOMB PITCHED in three World Series with the Dodgers. In 1949 he was voted Rookie of the Year by the Baseball Writers Association and the Sports News. He was the first winner of the Cy Young Award for outstanding major league pitcher in 1956.
Bush became chairman of the Committee on Foreign Intelligence in March when Ford overhailed the structure of intelligence administration. Ford established the committee to intelligence activities of the CIA and the departments of defense, state and treasury.
NEWCOMBE IS a consultant and representative of the National Clearinghouse for Alcohol Information. He has traveled widely across the United States, speaking on his personal experience with alcoholism and his recovery from it.
Workshop activities yesterday included a speaker, a film and a professional singer.
In 1971 he won a Distinguished American Award. He is a member of the Advisory Board of the National Council on Alcoholism.
DON RICHARDSON, counselor of the ICA RECORE Home in Topela, talked about women and alcohol. He is also director of Education and Training at the Kansas Abuse Albus Unit. The film showed was about alternatives to alcohol and drugs. Bryon Jon, a professional Native American singer from Duluth, Minn., sang last night.
