Desai expects prosecution of Gandhi
NEW DELHI, India — Prime Minister Morarji Desai said Saturday that it was very likely that his predecessor, Indra Gandhi, would be prosecuted on charges resulting from her 1975-77 emergency rule. Although Desai's statement did not say Gandhi definitely would be brownied by government officials, he riled in Desai in a ruling Janata party. The dispute led to the放入 of two cabinet ministers who had demanded faster action against Gandhi, a former prime minister.
Sadat says world favors his plan
Legislators' parley sets bill models
VIENNA-Egyptian President Anwar Sadat said Saturday that world opinion was on Egypt's side as it approached new face-to-face peace talks with Israel. Sadat, on a week-long visit to Austria during which he met with the head of Israel's political opposition, also left open the possibility of talks with U.S. President Jimmy Carter later this week in Europe. Carter will arrive Thursday in West Germany for a European summit.
DENVER—The National Conference of State Legislatures passed resolutions Saturday that urged criminalization of public drunkenness and banned mandatory retirement, but it rejected three other controversial proposals. The 2,300 legislators who met in Denver last week refused to urge聚 of the 55-mile-an-hour speed limit. They also opposed payments for the court to safeguard a mother's health and反对 federal judges' education. The adopted resolutions direct efforts of the group's 35-member lobby in Washington and provide models for legislation the lawmakers can take back to their states.
Astronomy camp students study rare planet lineup
At 7 a.m. today Venus and Saturn moved into a position in which they could be seen along an almost straight line from Earth. Eight high school students in KU's astronomy camp are making the planetary movements part of their studies.
Although the phenomenon, called conjunction, occurs every year, it is rare that Venus and Saturn should be separated by only 1/10 degree as happened this morning, David Tholen, an assistant instructor of the astronomy camp, said yesterday.
To study the conjunction and other astronomical phenomena the high school students are using nine telescopes provided by the astronomy department.
The telescopes range in size from those with a refractor with a 4\*-inch diameter lens to those with a reflector with a 27-inch diameter mirror.
The 27-inch reflector telescope is the largest telescope in Kansas and, except for a 30-inch telescope in Nebraska, the largest in the Midwest. Tholen said.
THE 27-INCH telescope was made mostly by KU people in the 1920s.
Clyde Tombaugh, the astronomer who discovered Pluto in 1930, received his master's degree from KU after studying the functions of the 27-inch telescope.
Next to the 27-inch telescope, which is se under an astronomical observation dome or the roof of Lindley Hall, is a 92-year-old 6- in diameter refractor telescope into another refractor telescope.

The 6-inch telescope's lens was optically ground by Alvan Clark, the man who ground the lenses for the world's two largest refractor telescopes.
The 6-inch telescope has a focal length of 49 inches and a 14th $^{3}$ inch focal length for the 27-inch telescope.
An independent discovery of Noya Cugim, an inch that exploded, was made using the 92-inch telescope.

Junk man builds salvage mountain
Bv MARGARET SCHEIRMAN
Curtitz, 62, 838 New York St., makes a full-time occupation of salvaging things that other people throw away but that he considers valuable.
His house on New York Street is hardly visible as a result to the mountains of junk
"It's an open store, according to me," he says. "According to them, 'it's an open store.'"
He says he is paying $101 rent a month out of his Social Security check. The payments are being applied to the purchase of the house.
"I look at this mattress," he says, pulling a cover off a mattress with an six-inch hole.
"People say, I want a new one, I want a new one." But with a small patch, a little bit of work, I'll have a brand new mattress."
"IF I COULD get another house, I'd sell this lot and let them do what they want."
Retired and a widower, Curtit spends his days collecting junk, and contemplating each piece, considering how it could be fixed or used.
He laughs with delight at his critics.

second childhood, 'but then that's not gettin'
old. is it "?"
Does he get criticism from his neighbors? "Not really," Curtit says. "They don't care. I know them all by nodding acquaintance."
Does he get criticism from his neighbors?
A boy pulls up on a bicycle with a canteen in his hand.
"No, I already got one like h." Curtit says, and the boy quickly turns around and pulls on his rope.
"WANNA BUY IT?" he calls.
For as exactly where Curtt finds his junk,
he says, "What do you do with your stuff
and use it?"
"You put it in a box, and pack it, and drop it. And when you do, it walks off."
In his soft, aged voice, Curtit tells of the first time he brought junk to Lawrence.
Now that the yard is full, and the house is filled to the ceilings with junk, except for paths between rooms, Curtis says he wishes he could get another house to fill.
The back yard, the side yard and the front yard from the porch to the sidewalk are filled with old grocery carts, borken fans, deteriorating toys, parts of vacuum cleaners, beat-up pie tins and a myriad of other discarded items.
Curtit chuckles as he says that that *nasty* he gets trouble from the city officials.
"They can do something about it, if they wanted to bad enough," he says.
Although he doesn't actively try to sell his own objects, he says sometimes people pass him things.
"There's a few pieces that go. People say,
What would you like to have for it?"
A car drives up next door and several people get out. A woman is carrying a piece
"Hi!" he yells. "That looks like one of those Mexican dishes, is it."
"WHAT DO YOU think of my archbishop there behind him," he asks, pointing to a branch that had many shoots forming a tumbleweedlike sculpture.
"Use your imagination, and it's one of those animal plants."
His story of how he came to Lawrence is complicated and hard to follow. Part of the story was told in a book by him.
He was born in Washington in 1915 into a poor family.
His first wife left him after he discovered that she was married to seven other men.
"There came the postman (knock, knock, knock) and he had seven letters in his hand," he says. "I took them upstairs, and she said, 'Oh no, they've caught up with
"I said, 'What do you mean?' And she
said, 'These guns are my husbands.' That really
hurt me.
The years that followed took him to "Oregon, California, carnivals, dog and pony shows, stationary, hitchiking, you name it."
Slowly and deliberately he says, "I am a bobo. Trwell my middle name."
HE HAD SOME unpleasant experiences and his second wife died. Packing everything he owned on a bicycle, he rode all the way to Ottawa, he says.
"I walked into town one night, started walking up and down the street yelling, "I
The city police put him in the mental hospital, charging him with drunkenness, disorderly conduct, trespassing, hitchhiking and invisible means of support.
Years later, he was living in Grand Junction. Colo. he says.
"Then they slapped my angels into Osawatomie, "he says.
He stayed there 10 years, until 1911. Three years later he landed in Lawrence and
Now, though legally retired, Curtit says,
"I'll never get retired, but I will get a reprieve."
THE $75,000,000 QUESTION:
"Anyhow, I'm just biding my time. Something will come up."
