State Sen. Bert Chaney, D-Hutchison, last night said that he was going to rely on the people of Kansas and not political machines to elect him governor in 1978.
Chaney, who announced his gubernatorial bid four months ago, said he had not asked for the support of the Kansas Democratic powers because he was more interested in

Chaney said that, by announcing his candidacy, he was being more open with the people than Kansas Atty. Gen. Curt Schneider and House majority leader John
Carlin, both of whom he believes are announcing without their candidacy.
Both Schneider and Carlin are Democrats.
CHANEY SAID he hoped both Schneider and Carlin would stay out of the race so he could avoid a primary. But he said he could beat either man.
The University of Kansas Geological Survey can expect to be visited by state legislators very soon if State Rep. John Vogel, R-Lawrence, has his way.
"This information is very pertinent to us as legislators because it can provide valuable information concerning decisions we have to make." he said.
Legislator promotes use of geological survey data
"In the past, I don't think the legislature has made enough use of the services at our institutions and universities. I think they must realize the function of some of the operations."
VOGEL SAID data concerning energy and water would be very valuable, and he wanted the legislature to be aware of what the survey had in the way of data.
Vogel, who visited the Geological Survey building yesterday with State Sen. Arnold Berman, D-Lawrence, said, "I intend to invite some state legislators down here to see the wealth of resources available here," he said.

CHANEY WITHHELD specific comment on Gov. Robert Bennett, but said he planned to be an active governor rather than just occupy space.
Chaney said his greatest advantage over his proxies opponents was his ability to run the ball. He had a tough time in the first half.
Nursing home regulation will be an important issue in the campaign, he said.
Others said that no restrictions should be placed on the library because it was a part of the University and should be available to all.

instead of attacking the present administration, Chansey said he is going to run for president.
Head said that some law students required more space to work on projects. They also needed quick and brief access to reference books, she said, and were hindered when students "parked" themselves in front of often-used law commentaries.
Chaney said energy would be another important issue in the gubernatorial race. He said he was not in favor of deregulating natural gas prices because he thought gas bills were sending many people to the poor house.
ACCORDING TO Head and some law students, law students generally knew not to study at tables where commentaries were shelved.
Hambleton said he had invited the legislators to acquaint them with the resources available at the survey building and assistance with the information the survey had.

Klmann said law students did not want to take an elitist position on barring students from library use, but the library was not unwilling to take action. Law students and additional undergraduates.
They said undergraduates studied at the tables, unaware that law students used the reference tables for short periods only and that they would be the books when research papers and cases.
"This is where my reputation of being a cheap campaigniller will," Chaney said. He said he expected to do most of his campaigning in the state with little billboard or television advertising.
Berman left for Topela after visiting the building and was unavailable for comment.
Because of the resignation of Republican Sen. James Pearson and wide-open congressional races in the state, Chaney said, Democratic financial support will be
Klmann, Tacha and Head agreed that, until overcrowding became serious, no other options were available.
Chaney also said he would try to subsidize insulation and energy consumption and maintain it.
Chaney said he would use his fourth district base, built in his unsuccessful 1974 campaign for the U.S. House of Representatives, to lay the foundation for a statewide organization. He said he planned to use the organization to do door-to-door
He said he did not support the proposed plan that would make the University of Kansas Medical Center students pay their own tuition unless they signed contracts to practice in the state. He said he favored a plan to help small towns recruit doctors, instead of a plan penalizing a certain group of students.
