there's some feeling that they don't have to be followed to the letter."
Cost for either new building is estimated at $100 per square foot. Siebels said.
--and periodic departments, could remain on while the rest was closed. Siebs said.
Stacks in the new library would include more studying area, he said.
"People just don't feel safe in Watson stacks sometimes," Siebel said.
Also included would be study areas that could be locked so books and belongings could be left, typing areas where data could be checked out and a snook bar area.
Siebels said graduate students and faculty already had access to study areas that could be locked in Watson. The snack problem, which was one of the biggest problem of food and drink in the stacks.
"People sneak lunches and cokes in, leave them in the stacks now" he said.

Murphy said he studied the growth and development of the library collection at RU
"We found that present facilities are grossly inadequate in terms of space," he said. "In some cases, books are spilling onto the shelves, because of no room on the shelves."
Space restrictions are so great in certain departments of Watson that the arrival of one new book necessitates an amazing amount of reshelving, and in some cases means that an old book must be put into storage, he said.
"Watson has an antiquated heating and temperature control system . . . sometimes it's too hot, sometimes too cold," Murphy said. "The end result is that materials deteriorate much more rapidly than they should."
"The applicants who come from those schools usually can't compete with the others. It takes between 1,500 and 2,000 hours of flight time to fly for us. I've found pilots who go through the schools also usually have enough hours to compete."
that's necessary to fly for an airline isn't taught at most of the flight schools.

Sligar said, "If you join the Air Force your chances of becoming a pilot are in 25. Last year the Air Force ROTC gave us 10 students. This year only 4. The best way to get into the Air Force is through commercial training course - Cessna Beech, or Piper, and is of moderate size."
MILLER SAID THAT he definitely wanted to become a pilot. It's a long long process, but it's something that he's always wanted to do, he said.

Plethora of cold remedies used
By SARA HOLLAND
Staff Writer
Whisky and lemon juice, warm milk and honey, chicken soup with mozza balls, and sex are possible remedies for the common ailments caused by students at the University of Kansas.
ACCORDING TO MARTIN WOLLMANM, director of Watkins Memorial Hospital, the common cold is characterized by rumpy noses, sore throats and low grade fevers.
One of the more unusual cold remedies was offered by Kathy Kinglebell, El Dorado junior. She said that her grandfather always used a combination of lard and pepper to coat her hands. She said he was convinced that nothing but pepper and kard would help his cold.
Another theory is the raisin treatment. According to Wayne Hird, Lawrence physician, the theory is to soak raisins in gin.
"The common cold is caused by a variety of viruses that are all related," he said. Wednesday, "The viruses are easily spread through the air." The most common mouth are proclaimed from the nose and mouth."
"If you eat enough raisins, then you don't care if you have a cold," he said.
H. Penfield Jones, Lawrence physician,
Wollmann said that he considered the cold season to be during the fall and winter.
said the cold season didn't start until after the first heavy frost.
Jones said the best way to prevent colds was to get plenty of rest and exercise.
"AFTER A PERSON GETS A COLD he should drink fluids, take aspirin every four hours"
He said that worked as well as any other method.
Wolmmann said that a student with a cold should decrease extra-curricular activities.
He said some doctors recommended vitamin C as a preventive for colds, but he didn't know of any scientific evidence that supported that theory.
Robert Hughes, Lawrence physician, said to students with a cold should be advised to avoid drinks.
Hughes said that he had read that vitamin C was supposed to help ease cold symptoms and prevent colds, but he said that it hadn't been proven.
"Everybody has their own remedy for colds, and the last remedy tried is usually acupuncture."
Wollmann said there was no effective means of preventing a cold or curing it.
"Since most colds are relatively short illnesses, the colds probably would have gotten better if no remedies had been tried."
Hughes said that some remedies he had
heard of were rubbing Vicks ointment on a
wound or putting oil and ammonia in vaporizers
"Oil and ammonia is a harmful remedy because the oil gets stuck in the lungs," he said.
"WHEN I WAS A CHILD, MY MOTHER rubbed Mentholatum or Mustard on my chest," Hughes said. "That helps clear up your nose and nails."
Hird recommended bed rest and loving as good cold treatments.
"Drinking lots of juices helps a cold," he
takes I prefer vodka or bourbon as a
juece."
Hird said that students should be held on a hard surface, not kid or of by staying out all night and being scared.
A clerk for Gibson's Pharmacy of Lawrence Inc., 2252 Iowa, said that the most common remedies bought were Contact nasal sprays, cough syrups and vitamins.
BILL BEELER, LAWRENCE PHARMACIST, said that the most common remedy used for colds was aspirin. He said vitamin C, combinations of anhydrous sodium hydroxide, cough syrups and rubs such as Vicks Yankee were other products bought for colds.
"I like to think that it takes 14 days to be a cold and two weeks to wear down a coat."
Center to have open house
Among the new staff members is Steve
McGraw, who works in the billing and
charges department.
A new service the department will offer is a biviewkv muscular dystrophy clinic.
The University of Kansas Medical Center will have an open house today to show off its newly revamped department of John H. Redford, department chair to John R. Redford, department chairman.
The department, formerly called physical medicine, has reorganized its space for more efficient, patient-oriented use, and has been decorated in red, white and blue.
"Steve, who began work in August, is severely handicapped by a high-level spinal cord injury and has been a real inspiration to some of our patients," Redford said.
Another new staff member is Charlotte Otley, a part-time speech pathologist, who will work with stroke and accident victims who have communication disorders.
The department plans to expand physical therapy services by offering late afternoon hours for people who work but still need treatments, according to Redford.
Several other students also had some unusual cold remedies.
In addition, he said, "We plan to be more involved in geriatric care and research."
Rehabilitation medicine provides physical and occupational therapy to help patients regain motor skills lost because of disease or accident. The department works with patients with arthritis and burn patients and helps provide special appliances and braces.
Clifford Wiley, Baltimore, sophomore, said that as a member of the Kansas track team, he was excited to join the program.
STEVE TRONNE, WICHTA sophomore,
that that grass or rose hip tea were
used.
"When I was a kid, my mother always gave me hot tea and gingerbread cookies."
"I usually go to the race track and run a quarter of a mile as hard and as fast as I can," he said. "After I’m finished I’m so exhausted that I whipped my wipe."
Another student said his yoga teachers had taught him to snort lukewarm salt water as a cold remedy. He said it wouldn't harm him, but it would relieve the symptoms.

several times," Crane said. "I don't think I'll make it a career right now. However, it's more than just a leisure activity for me."
When a pilot first starts working the work is very poor, Silgar said. He'll have to spend time on it to get his commercial license, be said, and then to earn $600 a month at the beginning.
Sliar said that he didn't want to sound

Detailed information on University of Kansas off-campus programs has been sent to Gov. Robert F. Bemett in compliance with the governor's request, Ron Calgaard, vice chancellor for academic affairs, said yesterday.
Calgard said that the information sent to Bennett was available at the Board of Trustees.
It is expected that Young and Parris will interview candidates for spring staff positions.
An editor and a business manager for the spring 1976 Kanman were chosen yesterday.
Bennett sent course data
"IT'S NOT GOING TO BE HARD to find a job as long as one realizes he's going to move around," he said. "There are about 20,000 pilots floating around looking for jobs in matters. In the next ten years all pilot trains and people in aviation will be employed."
Bennett requested detailed information on course lists, locations, cost and plans for expansion. The request was sent to the six city colleges in the state of Illinois 19 public community colleges in Kansas.

"General aviation has grown over the last two years by 15 per cent. Big companies such as Bell Telephone, Shell Oil, Gulf Oil and others are growing and having flight departments and transportation executives."
Although the students admitted having thought about having a crush, they said they had not.
"Most people crash because of stupid errors," Crane said. "It may be hard to forget what happens if people forget to put fuel in the plane. You'd be amazed how many people forget to do that. Only a small percentage of the accident happen because of the structure of the plane."
To prevent accidents, pilots check almost everything on the plane, Miller said, and every two years a pilot has to be checked to make sure he doesn't forget how to fly. When a pilot does not for a period of months, he said, he must also be checked.

"They think I've got extra capabilities," Miller said. "They think I'm extra special because it's something they'd love to do, but don't think they can afford."
Crane said, "Sometimes they're really impressed by knowing that I fly. But then others think that it's frivolous and not too much of a big deal."
