Tuesday, July 25,1978 Restoring historic building slow Staff Writer By TERRY DIEBOLT Progress on the restoration of the building that once housed Lane University in Lecompte has been slow because of lack of funds, Mrs. Julius Springer, president of the Lecompte Historical Society, said yesterday. Springer wants to obtain funds needed for restoration, $174,275 in 1979, and then set an architect to finish the restoration. "I'm 72 years old and I hope to see the completed building." Springer said. The university operated from 1865 to 1903. The building was finished in 1882. The building was originally intended to be the Kansas Capitol when Leptonom was the capital of the Kansas Territory. In 1856 Congress appropriated $50,000 to build the Capitol. The foundation and the supporting floor were completed with slave labor. University Daily Kansan WHEN KANSAS became a free state, the capital was moved from Lecompton and for many years the unfinished buildings and materials were left abandoned. In 1655 the State of Kansas deeded the partially completed building and 13 acres to the university. The university was named after Sen. James H. Lane, who promised large donations to complete the building, although he never did give money. Some of the classes that were offered by the university were divinity, oratory, mental and moral science, Greek and English, foreign language, English, bookkilling and natural sciences. In 1903 Campbell University in Holton bought Lane and classes were no longer held in Lecompton. WHEN THE BUILDING is restored, it will be used as a museum, which will display memorabilia of Lane University, its alumni and Lecompont. The Lecompton Historical Society of which Springer has been president since 1974, has been involved in projects to raise funds for the restoration. "I don't want people to think that we are here with our hands out waiting for the money to be given to us—we are working for it," Springer said. "We have been selling history books, stationery and Christmas cards and having chili suppers and ice cream socials. we diligently taught for every opportunity to make some money. In 1976 we sold bicentennial pendents and made $5,000." Springer asked Douglas County for $19,000 in revenue sharing funds and $4,000 were tentatively approved. "We ARE very appreciative of any funds we can get," she said. "We have a good start on the project, but it is going to take a lot more." The building, constructed of native Kansas limestone, has had new windows and doors installed and sealed. The porches and basement stairs has been repaired and an inside stairway leading to the chanel has been rebuilt. According to Springer, the interior will take a lot of work to renovate it. Lane University is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is included in the state preservation plan. Thumping, squeezing or listening are not necessarily the best ways to test a water- Staff Writer Earl Van Meter, Douglas County extension agent, says the seat way to choose a location for an office. By LIONEL TIPTON Staff Writer "Pure and simple, the key to choosing a watermelon is experience," he says. "If you had a good watermelon before, chances are you will be choosing another one just like Specialists in Chinese Cuisine Closed on Tuesdays Holiday Plaza 842-4976 Experience best for melon test Lunch 11:00-2:30 Dinner 4:30-10:00 Van Meter says there are different methods to determine the ripeness of each fruit. CATHAY "On a Big Green watermelon, the ripes will have a yellow belly," he says. "THEY ARE really tough," he says. "However, if you see at the dirt, the shiny film that is usually on them will not be there. It will have a dull surface." Van Meter says the best kind of watermelon is the Allsweat watermelon, developed in Illinois State University. The fruit is about all Watermelon, he says, is that it resists disease. Van Meter says the ripeness of long gray melons, such as the Charleston gray and Honeydew melons, is at its peak. Paraphernalia Love Records "It will be susceptible to anthracnose, a disease that kills watermelons on the vine, because of the resistance built into it," he says. "It also will transport well." "The easiest way to tell, however, is that the stem will turn brown when they are ri." . . Van Meter says that the Allsweet is one of the sweet-tasting melons available. WATERMELONS sold in grocery stores, most of which are shipped from Texas, are made from cantaloupe. Locally-grown watermelons will go on the sale at fruit and vetable stands in the next month. Van Meter says there are very few watermelon crops in Douglas County because of the work involved in harvesting the melons. use watermierem must be harvested by use watermierem must be quite a bit of manual labor involve me Generally, the price for watermelons in Lawrence ranges from 10 to 15 cents a pound, but Van Meter says the price probably will drop soon.
