Carter gains supporter
TOPEKA-Robert Brock, former Kansas Democrat party chairman, said yesterday he would support former Georgia governor Jimmy Carter.

Brock's wife, Louse, is Carter's Kansas cochairman. Brock will become Kansas finance chairman of the Carter campaign.

Lee J. Cobb dies at 64
A coroner's spokesman said Cobb died at his suburban Woodland Hills home at 11:42 a.m. of an apparent heart attack.
Cobb rose to the heights of his professional career with his 1949 performance in Arthur Miller's "Dearth" of a Salesman" on the Broadway stage.

TOPEKA-Kansas college students who graduate this year have responded in large numbers to the Kansas Employment Security Division's "Sheepkin-sheepkin" campaign.
Job program popular
The project started in 1975 with the support of Gov. Robert F. Bennett and the cooperation of the Kansas college president, Kent said.
"This year's Sheepskin will feature students of 1976 Kansas college graduates, including private school students, who will be available for employment," Kent said. "The register is mailed directly to more than 10,000 Kansas employers. A separate edition is published for teaching positions."
Kent said more applications were expected before the March 1 deadline.
"Students with degrees in engineering, health arts and accounting will be in great demand this year," he said.
FDA bans red dye
WASHINGTON—The Food and Drug Administration banned Red Dye No. 2 yesterday, with the ban going into effect today.
The artificial dye, which is used in hundreds of foods, drugs and cosmetics, can't be used in any product unless processing already has started.
The FDA based its decision on an agency scientist's report made at the end of the study. The research team had statistically significant more dangerous tumours than those that weren't been tested.
Red Dye No. 25 sometimes mixed with outer cues to produce snakes or brown and purple may be used to make both cake frostings and fish appear whiter
The FDA announced that the ban would go into effect today and that any products manufactured with it after today would be subject to seizure or recall.
KC likely to remain GOP convention site
KANSAS CITY (AP) -The housing chairman of the National Republican Party said yesterday the possibility of the GOP shifting its presidential nominating convention to another city had lessened considerably.
The chairman, June Gibbs, made her assessment following a meeting of city officials and hotel and motel executives. The meeting was called following reports that the August convention might be moved to September. A convention commitment of 15,777 rooms,
"Based on the spirit of what I've seen here today, I'd say the convention will indeed be held in Kansas City," said Mrs. Gibbs, of Newport, R.I.
Mayor Charles Wheeler Jr. said, "the situation is improving all the time. I don't think we're in any danger of losing the job," he maintained the spirit of this meeting today."
Representatives of nearly every major hotel and motel in the five-county greater Kansas City area attended the meeting. After hearing statements from city officials, the executives were polled to see how many rooms they would guarantee.
City officials said they hadn't kept a running tally of the results of the poll, but enough rooms appeared to be committed to mushing the city over the ton.
Miami, New York and Cleveland had made renewed bids for the convention.
