operational safety conditions at the airport. In the broadest terms, the board is to function as a clearinghouse and coordinating matters associated with aviation at the city.
Since the board's creation, the five members have had one organizational meeting, according to Ross Copeland, board member.
COPELAND, WHO IS also associate director of the bureau of child research at the University of Kansas, said the board's purpose was to determine aviation needs for the Lawrence area. The board is to be a knowledgeable source the city commissioners can go to when they deal with matters that concern aviation, Copeland
'Everyone Has Ignored the Airport'

KU now keeps two planes at the airport.
Copeland said the present airport's facilities were very poor and an improved, more modern airport would benefit not only the businessesmen but also the entire KU community.
LAWRENCE ALREADY has its own
Copeland said that a regular airline passenger service to the Kansas City International and Topeka airports would be the most popular, because they would give visiting professors, students and scientists the opportunity to land in Lawrence rather than in Topeka or Kansas
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Nixon's nominee to head the Central Intelligence Agency said Monday the CIA was wrong in taking a position at the office of Daniel Ellsberg's psychiatrist.
CIA Nominee Promises Senators No Domestic Espionage Activity
William E. Colby told the Senate Armed Services Committee that the agency would
take no role in gathering domestic intelligence.
Acting Chairman Stuart Symington, D-Mo., the only committee member present, questioned Colby for about 90 minutes and forward to voting for your confirmation.

Hilltop to Repay $5,300

Kansan Staff Writer
Hilltop Child Day Care Center has adopted a pay-back schedule in its fiscal year 1974 budget to reimburse the KU Student Senate for a $5,300 loan made last
The schedule calls for $150 payments each month during the nine months a year the center is open. Pay-off of the interest-free compartment is complete in slightly less than four years.
Although this agreement is not yet official, Student Senate and Hilltop officers agreed on the details at a meeting Monday morning. University Attorney Charles Oldfather will draw up a contract to be finalized within the next two weeks.
An additional clause in the contract will allow the Hillop center, which operates from the Wesley Foundation Center on Oread Avenue, to repay a larger amount than the schedule calls for if it is able to pay the loan off faster than anticipated.
The original Student Senate loan to
Hilltop was for $,5,600, $2,100 of which went to the Wesley Foundation for remodeling of the center. The amount of the loan was reduced when the Wesley Foundation completed only $1,800 worth of improvements.
The remaining $30 is being used by the Wesley Foundation to remodel and improve offices of other organizations supported by the Senate and housed in the Wesley building.
The Hilltop Child Day Care Center was originally funded by the Student Senate in the amount of $20,000. This sum jump was allocated in the spring of 1972, with $8,000 coming from the fiscal year 1972 Student Senate. In addition, $46,000 from the fiscal year 1973 expenditures.
Hilltop requested and was granted the loan in the fall of last year, when the original $20,000 became inadequate to meet the center's goals.
Last year Hillocarp led for 54 youngsters, the majority children of KU students. Next year's plans envisage extension of the care to 80 children.

At the time of the break-in, Ellsberg was awaiting trial for leaking the Pentagon papers to newsmen. The charges were dismissed earlier this year for what the judge called improper government activities.
KU Follow Through Gets $550,000 Grant
WASHINGTON (AP) - The U.S. Office of Education has awarded a $448,077 grant to the University of Kansas to continue its Behavior Analysis Model for Follow Through Program for the sixth straight year.
The program accelerates learning and achievement of children in kindergarten through the third grade, using computer skills and students' reading and mathematical progress.
VD Rate Low Here, Doctor Says
Kansan Staff Writer
By JAY CURTIS
In contrast to the national venereal disease epidemic, the incidence of VD at the University of Kansas is insignificant, according to a study by the director of the student health service.
"We see no more than six to eight cases on campus per month." Screwler said.
An estimated 30,000 cases of venereal disease were unreported in Kansas last month, according to Richard Lockhart, president of the division of venereal disease control.
THE DIVISION ATTEMPTS to track down reported cases of VD and obtain the names of additional persons who may have been infected. The names of reported cases are first obtained from laboratories, health clinics and private physicians.
Lockhart said private physicians were the best source for names, but that only a small percentage of these cases were ever reported to his office.
"Until we get better cooperation from
Kansas physicians, we can't hope to control VD effectively," Lockhart said.
HE ESTIMATED THAT only about 11 per cent of all syphilis cases and 15 per cent of all gonorrhea cases were ever reported to the division of venereal disease control.
Lockhart said that a letter was mailed to Kansas physicians to ask the number of syphilis and gonorrhea they treated during a given month. This number was then matched with the total number accrued from the division office to arrive at the percentages.
Schweigler said the health service tried to ask each VD patient if there had been any additional contacts and then attempted to find the contacts and treat them.
TREATMENT FOR VD at the health service and information about others who may have been infected is kept in strict confidence, according to Schwegler.
He said a court order was the only way this information would ever be revealed, and that is why he took his case.
had never received a court order to reveal the names of those who had been treated.
Lockhart said the State Health Department also kept its information on VD patients.
*“WHEN PEOPLE LEARN that we’re not interested in their morals, but only in their power.”*
Lockhart that he thought the sexual behavior of VD victims was "their own business" and that it was not the response to office to make judgments about morals.
The danger of VD, according to Lockhart, is that it is possible to have gonorrhea or chlamydia in the eyes with symptoms. Thus, an infected person may pose the infection on to others unknownly.
Schwegler said the incidence of venereal disease seemed to be lower among college students than among the general public, but conceded that college students might seek treatment from private physicians rather than from the Student Health Service.
Students Allowed to Pick Topics In English 3; Substitution OKd
Students who still face the English 3 requirement will be able to substitute for it any English course numbered 3-18 for the first time this fall. James Gowen, director of Freshman-sophomore English and professor of English, said Monday.
English 3 will also be listed by topic for the first time, Gowen said Monday. He said that English 3 had been taught with specific topics or themes since the program was started in the years ago, but that students had always listened to the material; topics were never listed in the timetable.
Gowen said that professors had chosen the topic that they wanted to teach them. The topic the top would reflect to reflect student feedback. The choice of topic, he said, had sometimes been a bit
department had tried to choose topics that had elicited the highest degree of student interest. He said the courses were not only hard, but also contained some non-fiction articles as well.

Gowen said that the basic philosophy had remained the same, but that the department was trying to make the course more interesting to students.
Published Monday through Fridays during the fall and spring semesters, MHS provides college preparation and medical training, and examination periods. Mail subscriptions rates are 8 a $16 per student; rates for additional students are 9 a $14 per student. Accommodations, goods, services and employment advertisement are offered to all students without regard to their financial standing. Students are necessary those in the University of Kansas or the State University of Kansas.
Gowen called the blind enrollment a "guessing game" for students, and said that students would now be able to enroll "with some sense."

airline, the Lawrence Aviation Air Commuter Service.
Senator James, B. Pearson, R-Kan, said on July 19 that federal aid might be obtained according to the newly-enacted Airport Development Acceleration Act.
Lawrence might possibly receive aid from the federal government to make
Barrand said he didn't think the act would necessarily help Lawrence, because when communities accept federal money for an education program, they are Federal Aviation Administration standards.
THE ACT WILL make aid more readily available to small communities like Lawrence. The act increases the federal funds to $250 million per 100 cent to 75 per cent of allowable costs.
Barrand said the project could cost three times more by complying with federal regulations than the original proposed project without FAA requirements. Because of the increase in requirements, which he didn't think were necessary, "twice as much money and time is spent on the project," Barrand said.
"We don't need federal money," Barrand said.
BARRAND MADE NO proposal for financial backing and said that question was answered.
Copeland said he was不 familiar with the act but said it sounded as if it were intended to help ease the burden on the taxpayer. He would not helped the taxpayer would be desirable.
He said he hoped that the Aviation Committee and the Aviation Advisory Board would work together to develop a plan of progress in aviation in Lawrence.
The promotion of business and industry was the primary reason the local Chamber of Commerce had begun to actively work to improve airport conditions, Copeland said. Copeland said this was an important development, but he didn't believe he'd thought it was the only reason.
THE CHAMBER OF Commerce aviation committee, which was formed more than 25 years ago, only recently became active in promoting the drive for better and increased facilities at the Lawrence airport, Barrand said.
He said the committee's goal now is to make people aware of the need for a better
Barrand said he was concerned about the
economic growth and development of Lawrence. He said a prime factor that influenced growth was transportation, and the form of transportation today was by air.
Everyone has ignored the airport, Barrand said. "To get any development or industry going, we must first look for a good facility to house air travel."
Barrand said the present airport was very inadequate.
THE PRESENT airport does not use radar. Pilots use two other landing aids: a visual homer beacon and distance measuring instrument works off a visual-omni range from Topeka.
Jail, Beer, Housing on Agenda
The visual-omni range and distance measuring equipment work together to obey the aircraft's altitude. The former keeps the aircraft on the right heading by means of a stationary antenna while the latter uses a rotating antenna to track its distance of the plane from its destination.
The beacon is on the ground and sends out a radio beam picked up in the aircraft by an automatic directional finder. The finder, Johnson said, is an antenna that receives the designated frequency and guides the plane in to land.
A letter sent to the Douglas County Commission regarding the city's participation in a proposed city-county judicial building is scheduled for discussion at today's Lawrence City Commission meeting.
The letter affirmed the city's interest in participating in the project and a motion will be needed so that the affirmation can be included in the minutes.
Among various other items on the agenda for the 2 p.m. meeting will be consideration of proposed amendments to the cereal malt beverage regulations for the city.
The 1973 Legislature made three basic changes to the regulations relating to cereal malt beverage licenses. Under the new requirements, the applicant for a license must be a resident of the county in which the city issuing the license is located. Previously, the applicant had to be a resident of the city itself.
Also under previous state law, there was a mandatory revocation if a license violated any of a number of provisions. The law now provides that the license shall either be suspended or revoked for the same violations.
recommended so that applications can be routinely handled from the middle of a network.
demolition of any structure
The commissioners will also consider adoption of a revised version of the Minimum Housing Code. The major change in this regard is that the mission will be required before the
The first two revisions have been recommended for amendment to reflect the changes in the current model.
The ordinance in Lawrence provides for the issuance of ceral malt beverage licenses on a calendar year basis. The city now has the option of either continuing to use the calendar year basis or going to the issuance of licenses on an annual basis.
In addition, the commissioners will consider an ordinance that provides for the removal of parking from the east side of Kentucky St. from the center line of West Kentucky St. from south, and on the east side of Kentucky St. from the center line of 14th St. 75 feet south.
