Nixon returns to China
PEKING—Chairman Mao Tse-tung met with Richard Nixon at noon today (the time) as the former American president continued to relive the peak his president
Tn meeting between the 82-year old chairman of the Chinese Communist party and Nixon was announced by a Chinese government spokesman shortly after it
The place of the meeting was not announced immediately, but presumably it took place at Mao's home in Peking.
na invited Nixon to return to China on the fourth anniversary of the visit that accompanied relations between the two countries after a break of 23 years.
Nixon and his wife were entertained last night at a banquet at which China's acting premier, Kuo Kuo-feng, publicly acknowledged that the Peking hierarchy is in control.
Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger said Saturday in Brasília that Nixon would report to the government when he returned.
Hua, the former public security minister, was the surprise choice two weeks ago to succeed the late Premier Chow En-ai. Vice President Teng Hasa-ping, who had been expected to get the job, has been subject to public criticism in recent weeks as a "nationalist roader."
Reagan funds diverted
NASHUA, H.-N. ROHAN Reagan said yesterday that he knew about money being diverted from his gubernatorial campaign in 1979 to obbain Republican efforts.
Reagan told an audience at Rivier college that he had just found out about the incident. He said he wouldn't have condoned it.
The Washington Post reported Sunday that at least $100,000 contributed to Reagan's campaign for re-election as governor of California had been secretly leaked.
Reagan had no significant opposition in the primary and professed neutrality about Republican races.
Reagan said, "I don't think any candidate has anything to do or pays any attention to the spending of campaign money and how it comes in."
The Post story quoted Thomas C. Reed, Reagan's campaign manager in 1970 and new secretary of the Air Force, as saying the diversion of money was discussed "in our words."
Congress nears deadline
WASHINGTON-Congress has only this week to restructure the Federal Elections Commission. If the end-of-the-week deadline established by the Supreme Court isn't met, the commission will lose much of its power, including the authority to disburse campaign funds to presidential candidates.
The Court said the commission structure must be changed to make all eight members presidential appointees. The present law gives Congress authority to appoint a majority of the commission. The Court said this violated the separation of powers principle in the Constitution.
Burglary suspect held
Lawrence police arrested a local man Thursday in connection with a number of recent burglaries, some of which involved attempted rapes.
The man, Albert Thomas, 255 N. Michigan, is being held in Dougless County Jail under $20,000 bond. He faces charges on three counts of burglary, two counts of theft, three counts of attempted rape and two counts of lewd and lascivious behavior.
Torres, 25, is thought to be responsible for nine bargejuries that have been reported by the police.
More than $3,000 worth of stolen property
was recovered from Thomas' apartment, some of which has still been unclaimed. Police withheld addresses of the burglary victims who also reported sexual assaults to protect their identities. Burglaries solved that didn't involve sexual assaults occurred at 1345 Vermont, 1716 Tennessee and 1012 Emery.
ACCORDING TO NEWTON, KLNW has been a pioneer in the use of radio communications. The mobile news units before Topeka and Kansas City stations, had utilized "beeper" telephone reports before most stations and had purchased one of the first automated stations.
Arden Boon said that one of the greatest problems the station had faced was how to communicate with the audience. The addition of FM, he said, solved that problem by allowing the FM station to emphasize a mostly-music format, while AM presented community-news.
twenty-five years ago, Arden Booth signed radio station KLUN-AM on the air from a studio in a pasture southwest of Lawrence.

BOB NEWTON, operations manager of KLWN, said Friday that the growth of the station was reflected in the increased number of employees, two remodeling projects and studio, the doubling of the size of the station and the use of new technology.
KLWN keeps signing on
When the station began operations, its AM broadcasting was limited to a period from 6 a.m. to sunset. After the FM station was added in 1964, broadcast times were extended. The separation of FM broadcasts from AM was completed two years ago.
The latest remodeling of the facilities at 31st and Iowa was completed in 1973.

Newton said the two stations' operations were now nearly autonomous.
The original staff was six persons, Newton said. The present staff of more than 20 includes five University of Kansas students.
For many of the people who had worked for or listened to the station since then, yesterday was a time for reminiscing as the organizers celebrated a周年 anniversary with a rededication ceremony.
KLWN-AM is the oldest commercial broadcasting station in Lawrence. Booth began the station under the ownership of local stockholders of Lawrence Broadcasters, Inc., and later bought out the principal stock of the company. Booth's son, Hank Booth, has served as general manager of the station since 1973.
"You walked through the pasture and into the front door." he said.
The original broadcasting stud was in a 20-foot or 30-foot brick building, Arden Baths.

Rock Chalk Revue is sponsored by the K-U Y- and partially funded by the Student Senate.
Newton said the station had been a training ground for many outstanding broadcasters. The station has experienced frequent staff turnover, he said, typical of small-market stations, particularly those in college towns.
MONTY MOORE, the "Voice of the Oakland Athletics," was also a KLWN employee, Newton said, and Tom Hendrick, the "Voice of the Kansas Jayhawks," worked at the station while a student at the college. Larry Wagner, who is communication director for the Shawnee Mission school district, once worked at the station.
Among the former staff members at the reception was Bill Morris, who worked at KLWN while attending KU in 1968-67 radio with WWHC of Hartford City, Ind.
"There have been some amazing changes here," Morris said.
HANK BOOTH, the present manager of KLWN, was five years old when the station began broadcasting. He said that when the station began operations, he had crawled into a large cart that had contained the lights for the top of the broadcasting tower.
The box was in the middle of the studio door, he said, and he knocked himself unconscious.
Although people were walking around in the hall, he said, no one knew him as the inside kit.

ARDEN BOOTH, who is now a state senator, said he foresaw a lessening of governmental interference in broadcasting and individuality. Booth worked before the KLWN at WREN radio, WREN was in Lawrence until the mid-1940s.
