Hays gave several reasons for delays in starting construction and rehabilitation. For example, there was a moratorium on subsidized housing construction during the last quarter of the year, the lengthy process of reviewing proposed development plans has stalled projects.

With a little bit of style and a lot of luck, David Draz, Leavenworth junior, completed a
The Community Development program helps neighborhood groups organize themselves and define their own boundaries, he said. And in the past, neighborhood groups have received funds from $10,000 to $100,000.
People who were familiar with the old urban renewal and model cities programs of the late 1970s and early 1970s had to be made familiar with the new Community Development program of the mid-1970s with its new rules and flexibility. Hays said, "The community development in the early 1970s among community groups about which should control the money."
"WE DON'T have enough money to solve everyone's problems and do all the things that need to be done," Hays said. "What we provide is basically seed money to help get things started. The residents must take the initiative."

In addition to the neighborhood funding aspect of the Community Development program, a police juvenile task force and a police community educational unit also
The task force, Hays said, works with school officials in an effort to reduce the
number of juvenile-related burglaries. The educational unit serves the community by providing residents with information on burglary prevention, security and how to handle a con artist.
Despite an apparent decrease in retail sales, merchants seem to be optimistic and most of them agree with the new rules about things will get better before they get worse.
"There are more people in Kansas City, Kan, now that there were a few years ago," Dan Tucker, owner of Tucker Hardware, says. Most people are going to trade on the avenue."
Both programs, he said, have been well received by the community.
He said that remodeling was taking place at several businesses and that a few new buildings were built.
TUCKER, WHO IS the outgoing president of the Avenue Area Inc., a merchants' association, said the remaining downtown businesses were doing relatively well, despite the reduction of pedestrian traffic in the past few years.
This area is starting to make a cornerbeach the convention center will hold.
Gary Kessling, manager of Jupiter's a variety discount store, said, "We see a lot of new faces in the store and business had been pretty good.
Jupiter's has been at Sixth Street and Minnesota Avenue since the early 1920s.

that disappear from his library.
"For some reason, they get stolen the most," Maya said. "Reference books on colleges and pre-law handbooks are stolen frequently."
Mayo said that some of the books are kept behind the circulation desk in an effort to prevent them from being stolen but that the procedure was inconvenient.
MAYO SAID the library had not bought an electronic detection device because it was relatively expensive and would limit the idea of openness that the library stood
He said the public library lost about 75 books in books that were checked and either not returned or never returned.
"If we tried to make people go through a gate before they left the library, it would destroy the feeling of freeness and openness," he said.
The problem of disappearing books is not limited to Watson, Anderson said, but is a more general issue.
The science library in Maltol Hall has had 20 to 30 books stolen or misplaced in the past six months, according to Kathleen Neely, assistant science librarian.
She said most of the materials were returned in a few months.
"Part of the problem is things being gone for two or three months and they are the only ones left."
In Marvin Hall's library, Patt Mimeau,
his assistant, said about 2,000 books
WERFELS.
SHE SAID BOOKS frequently disappeared at the time a class needed the books. One class member often takes the material, but in which makes it difficult for the classmates.
BUT SHE SAID that only books that were specifically asked for were replaced.
Although an electronic detection device will be installed in the Malott library in two or three years, Glinka said, it is uncertain whether other branch libraries would get the system.
"The library must have a big circulation for the system to pay off and the other branch libraries really don't have big enough ones," Glinka said.
