The Rev. John Grauale, known for his participation in the "Battle of the Exodus," is part in the formation of the State of Israel,
spoke to students last night in the Forum Room of the Union. After the lecture, Grav. Graval spoke individually to interested students.
Minister blasts zionism decision
The creation of Israel and the recent "attacks" on that country by the United Nations General Assembly were discussed last night by the Rev. John Stanley Grauel, a Methodist minister actively involved with zionism.
Grauel, who spoke to about 20 people in the Kansas Union, called the recent U.N. resolution equating zionism with racism, the most vicious and obscene act by any official functioning body since Nazi Germany.
His speech was sponsored by Zion, the Jewish Student Organization (Hillel).
Grauel said that because of these recent developments he was traveling to campus to talk about the present Middle East situation.
"I FIND IT difficult to contest the great lies, he said, referring to recent accusations against Israel by organizations like the Palestine Liberation Organization.
Grauel originally became involved with zionism when he joined the American Christian Palestine Committee. The group was established during World War II and was dedicated to the creation of the State of Israel.
Grauel was a leader aboard the Exodus, the famous ship that carried 4,300 Jews to Egypt.
Grauel said that according to an interview with an Arab terrorist, the killing of
End forseen on inquiry
Completion of the investigation into the disturbance of a speech by William Shockey is exerted within 'the next week' according to Del Shankel, executive vice chairman.
Identification of the demonstrators is the most difficult part of the investigation, Shankel said at a press conference yesterday. Consequently, the results of the investigation will be less complete than he had originally hoped, Shankel said.
"I think it is unlikely that no action will be taken, vex unlikely," he said.
The investigating group is studying the Nov. 13 disruption of a speech by Shockley, who espouses the theory that blacks are genetically inferior to whites. The group recommends any particular action but is merely a fact-finding group, Sandel said.
THE FINAL DECISION will be made by
Shanker and William Bailour, vice clan-
man.
Chancelor Archie R. Dykes won't participate in any final decision, because, in the event of an appeal, Dykes would be the arbitrator, Shankel said.
"Disciplinary action will be taken, but we're not prepared to disclose what that action will be or against whom it will be taken." Shankel said.

Also at the press conference, Shankel said the possibility of creating an office for the firm is still unclear.
eleven members of the Israeli Olympic team in Munich had been conducted by the West German police at the request of the Israeli government.
This was the kind of lie, Grauel said, that these groups were resorting to.
Grauel said that people were becoming conditioned to killings of this type.
It was because of Auschwitz, and other such atrocities that it became necessary for Jewish people to have a place of refuge, he said.
DURING THE RISE of the Nazis in Germany, many Jews attempted to leave Europe, Grauel said. They were turned away by most countries, including the United States, and forced to return to Europe, he said.
The St. Louis, a ship carrying Jews to the United States from Europe, was told to go to Havana, said Grauel, where they were refused entry.

Home improvements begin in HUD-financed program
Louise Jenkins, 80, and her three sons live in a house that had not had plumbing for 10 years.
Greg Stock, Douglas County ECKAN director, said Jenkins' home, which is in one of the areas, was approved for repair by the city and will be a development representatives this month.
While the workmen tear away the crumbling plaster in the Jenkins' nine-room house, the family continues to live there. The workmen are reassured occasionally when the workmen take a break.

Each member of the Jenkins family amputates the repair program.

"I consider it a large blessing," said Jackson, who was once an interior decorator but is now unable to work because of poor health.
In the winter, plastic coverings do little to keep out the cold wind. The roof and walls aren't insulated, and the family relies on a single gas heater for warmth.
Jenkins' home is the first in Lawrence to be repaired in the city's housing rehabilitation program. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded Lawrence $5000 for the program to develop a grant to the city's community development grant.
But Jenkins, who lives at 815 New Jersey
said Sunday that the things would be better
framed.
So far, Stock said, the program is working "beautifully." But, he said, more volunteers, especially people who could work during weekdays are needed.
According to HUD guidelines, $1,000 may be on house or in the areas. However, Stock said, homes owned by him will-income persons will be required first.

KU Band may still have a chance for Sun Bowl
By BILL UYEKI
There is still a chance for the University of Kansas Marching Band to perform at the Sun Bow in El Paso, Del Shankel, executive vice chancellor, said yesterday.
"We decided not to cancel the buses (for the band) just yet." Shankel said.
He said that the administration's earlier decision to cancel the band's trip was based on the $30,000 cost for busing the band to El Paso, and that only $8,000 was available from KUAC (Kansas University Athletic Corporation) to pay for the cost.
"I CULDN'T SEE any way for the university to come up with the remaining $50."
But, he added, yesterday afternoon he received visits and telephone calls from alumni, local businesses and parents of marching band members.
Those people volunteered to provide resources and help raise funds to enable the organization to meet its goals.
The University decided to delay its decision on the band for a couple days, he said, to see if a package to pay for the band's trin could be cut together.
He said he hoped the Endowment Association and the Student Senate could contribute funds to help pay for the band's $30,000 buisting cost.
Shankel said that he wasn't optimistic about the band's chances, and that their trip was very disappointing.
If these organizations and KUAC could come up with enough funds to come close to the $30,000, Shankel said, the University may help nav the remaining costs.
Last night, a bill proposing a block allocation of $5,000 for the band was favorably recommended by the Finance and Auditing Committee of the Senate.
The bill will probably come up for vote by the Senate Thursday night, according to reports.
Todd Seymour, president of the Endowment Association, said that the executive committee of the Endowment Association could not allocate funds until it had recommendation from the University administration.
"Most of our resources are for academic endeavors," Seymour said. "We allocate funds each year for the School of Fine Arts, but on more a concert basis."
PAUL GRAY, board member of the Alumni Band Association, said that his organization was searching for housing, education and food necessary for the band's trib.
That would greatly reduce the cost of the funds he could be easier than raising funds, he said.
"We're trying to explore every way we can," Gray said. "I think the job can be done, but I don't have anything concrete vet."
A revised request for funds for the band will be sent to the administration, according to the letter.
He said that he had considered taking fewer than the band's total 240 members to El Paso, but he didn't want to sacrifice the performance by using a smaller group.
"To take a group representing the University and not do a good job is counterproductive to the image of the University and the football team," Foster said.
He also said that KUAC paid a stipend to each band member at the end of the season. The stipend, a "varying amount" that hasn't been paid to band members yet, may be used for the bowl game costs, Foster said.
Donald Hower, director of the University of Pittsburgh marching band, said that he was fairly certain the Panthers' band would go to the Sun Bowl.
Hower said that the decision was almost definite, but that the band was having financial problems similar to the KU band's problems.
Pittsburgh has an advantage in transporting its band, Shankel said, because its
football team is an independent, and not in a league.
The rule applies to every Big Eight school in a bowl game. Shankel said.
Pittsburgh can use all its bowl game receipts for the football team, band and basketball teams. But, because of a Big Eight Conference rule, KU can use only a certain portion of bowl game receipts, according to the conference schools, he said.
KUAC budget a certain amount of money each year for band activities, he said. That money helped the band travel to the Iowa State game Oct. 18 and sent a pep band to Oklahoma Nov. 8, Shankel said, so no money had been set aside for a bowl game.
"We really hadn't planned earlier this year to be going to the Sun Bowl," Shankel referred to the Jayhawks' predicted or eight place in the Big Eight.
"ITHINK BEFORE the season start, a bowl game was beyond all possibilities,"

2.5 years, 9 minutes and PUD is approved
During what was probably the shortest Lawrence city commission meeting on record—nine minutes—the commission gave final approval to the long-discussed planned unit development (PUD) ordinance.
The ordinance which follows two and one-balf yearss of work by the city planners, provides a method of land unit development which is designed to give developers flexibility while saving open space for public use. It also allows the city to decide on a combination of residential and commercial zoning.
THE FIRST CITY zoning ordinance, adopted in 1966, was first changed in 1969. The new ordinance amends chapter 20 of the state PUD statute and adds new additions to the state PUD statute.
The measure, in addition to being studied for two years by the Lawrence-Douglas University Law School, is in public hearing with much of the discussion centering on whether the PUD ordinance should contain strict architectural restrictions that weren't included in the approved ordinance.
The ordinance also includes air space control zoning, which establishes limits on building heights within the airport flight area.
Mayor Barkley Clark reported that city
trash collection, slowed by the Thanksgiving holiday and last week's snow, was almost back on schedule. The routes should be back to the regular scheduled pick-up times within several days, Clark said.
CLARK ALSO reported that an investigation by City Attorney Milton Allen of DIA DRUG, a controversial drug information telephone service, was still processed. Clark sait Allen told him that he wasn't enough evidence for any legal action that meant.
"This situation is more complex than originally thought," he said. "We are proceeding; we're not putting this thing on the back shelf."
The Dial DRUG program, which tapped messages telling about the quality, price and availability of drugs in the Lawrence district, attacked for allegedly promoting drugs.
The program has been under investigation since early October, when the commission issued unanimously to determine whether it would take any legal action to stop the proposal.
Dial DRUG was started in April by the Douglas County Drug Abuse Council who hired Bing Hart, a pharmacy consultant, to operate the program for three months.
After the council disbanded in July and end its sponsorship of the program Hart Ant
