10 Thursday, February 9, 1978 University Daily Kansan All electric Geoff Yarbrough, Oklahoma City senior, steps out of the prizewinning electric car that he and a several other electrical engineering students helped build. The car, a 1965 MG, runs on 12 six-volt batteries. A small computer, called a microprocessor, helps use the electrical energy more efficiently and lower the operating cost. 6 nominees needed for Faculty Council At least six ninety students are needed for next year's Faculty Council, Barb Bause. He will teach two years. Only one-third of the Council's 39 seats are vacated each May because of the Council's rotating three-year terms. Yet there must be two nominees for each of the 13 vacant tower nominations are made, members of the Faculty Executive Committee will monitor the nominations. The Faculty Council consists of the chancellor and the executive vice chancellor, who serve as ex-officio members, and 39 elected faculty members. At least one representative is needed from each school and from the library system. She said two nominees still were needed from the School of Social Welfare. One nominee still is needed from the School of Pharmacy. Baume said other nominees might come from any other department or school of the University. Only one woman, Baume said, has been nominated for a Council position. FacEx will study the list of nominees before the ballots are mailed to see if the group contains enough nominees of women and minorities. Faculty members who want to be nominated for a Council position must submit a petition to Baume signed by five other faculty members by Feb. 15. A group of University of Kansas engineering students is working on the seemingly impossible—a quiet, clean, energy-efficient device that it is running efficiently, not gas. Baume said balloons would be mailed Mar. 1 and must be returned by Mar. 20. By PAM MANSON Staff Writer For the past two years, several senior design classes have worked on converting a 1985 MG automobile from gasoline to electric power. Last semester, nine engineering students developed an advisor designed small computer for a called a microprocessor, which uses energy more efficiently and lowers the costs of electric cars. Recently the students and their adviser won a $500 grant from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers to help build an engine, which will complete their electric car. KU students develop electric car The total cost of building the microprocessor will be about $675. The Engineering Council is providing the rest of the needed funds. "The ideas about electric cars that we're using aren't new," Mark Sandburg, Lawrence senator, said. "We want to work on our system to make electric cars in-to-work use more practical." Like an accelerator, the microprocessor changes like in the speed of the car. In the original design, the driver has to push a series of buttons to increase or decrease the Geoff Yarbrough, Lawrence senator, said that although the car had not been driven yet, it would probably go 40 mph when it would have run 30 to 60 hours between charges. The car is powered by 12 six-volt battery microchips and uses the energy from accelerating the car back into electrical energy. This recharges the batteries and extends the cars range. Six members of the group have been working on the microprocessor since the beginning of last semester. Three more students joined the group this semester. The students receive one to three credit hours for their participation. The students in the group are Sandburg; Yarbrough; Barry Bowles, Overland Park junior; Dave Corbin, Lawrence graduate junior; David Gossett, McDaniel; Tropea senior; Stan McMillan, Garden City graduate student; Tom Price, senior; and Debt Wilber, Lawrence senior.
