Revenue Sharing Funds Sought
City to Review Requests
By C. C. CALDWELL Kansan Staff Writer
Use of more than a half-million dollars in general revenue sharing funds will come before the Lawrence City Commission and 20 requests submitted by last Friday.
At stake will be the allocation of about $60,000 in general revenue sharing funds expected this year. Individuals and groups will benefit from present formally and support their requests.
The deadline for requests was Friday. The commission previously has reviewed 17 of the requests.
General revenue sharing is intended to provide greater local fiscal control and autonomy and to take up much of the slack resulting from the federal cutbacks in municipal domestic funding.
The individuals and groups seeking funds Tuesday will be applying under federal requirements for what Lawrence Mayor Warren has broadly termed "Peace Programs."
The other broad area for use of general revenue sharing involves such capital expenditure items as a city maintenance garage, a city-county judicial facility, a community center, a development, a fire station and equipment and a pilot program on housing
rehabilitation.
General revenue sharing, which was benn last year, is a five-year program.
A report issued April 12 by the city staff concludes with emphasis upon the need for successful initial local application of the program and makes this statement:
"Poorly devised programs and expenditures and short-range thinking will certainly cool Congressional and administration support for continuing general revenue sharing or expanding into Community Development Revenue Sharing."
Community Development Revenue Sharing is the one-time additional federal revenue return program also known as the $10 million currently awaiting congressional approval.
The city staff's report continues:
"Our job is to look at the entire five-year period, develop a five-year program of expenditures and to effectively communicate that to the management. Lawrence the reasoning behind the decisions that are ultimately made with regard to the use of General Revenue funds."
The commission will meet on the fourth floor of the First National Bank Building at 101 W. 62nd Street.
In other nonroutine items, the commission will consider an ordinance
providing for the creation of taxi cabs stand in the central business district. The proposed locations have been coordinated by a public works department, reviewed by the public works department.
The final nonroutine item in the commission's new business will be consideration of an ordinance establishing specifications for making local buildings more accessible to the physically handicapped, in consonance with nationally established standards.

Ridglea Defendant Skips Hearing
Judge Mike Elwell set a trial for May 2 at 11:15 a.m. in the county court.
The charge was filed March 26 by the county attorney's office after it received a $10,000 settlement. Lawyers said second-year law student. Still that Ridgelea was withholding a $50 deposit,
contrary to the lease agreement.
According to Dave Berkowitz, county attorney, Stull was approached earlier this month by Ridglea owners who sought an out of court settlement.
Stult refused, Berkowitz said, as a matter of principle, thinking the prosecution of the charge was more important than an out of pocket supplement for the amount of the deposit.
If Inteone Corp. fails to appear in court on May 2, Berkowitz said, judgment still will be rendered on the basis of the prosecution's evidence.

Physics Applied to Art on Display
BY BYRON MYERS Kansan Staff Writer
The display cases in the main lobby of Malott Hall are filled with the works of fine arts students who are learning to ima magnet on the underside of paper and either iron filings or BFs on the upper surface.
A special course entitled "Physics Applications to Art," or Physics 4, was created last fall. It is taught by Robert Bearse, associate professor of physics and astronomy, and D. W. McKay, assistant professor of physics and astronomy. The course makes physical comprehensible and interesting to students in the School of Fine Arts.
Another exhibit, entitled "Infinity Chamber," consists of a box with mirrors on five sides, plus a two-way mirror which faces the viewer, creating a multiple reflection pattern. Small bulbs are string inside in a conventional parallel circuit. Gazebos that is similar to looking into a maze of bulbs that retreats endlessly into the background.

According to McKay, enrollment and enthusiasm for the class has been surprisingly high. He said that 110 students were enrolled last fall when the course first was offered and that 75 students were enrolled this semester.
"We try to give people some exposure to principles and materials they might not be familiar with, and to show them that they didn't realize they could do," he said.
Other exhibits include paintings and photographs created by the manipulation of
McKay said that he couldn't estimate how many students would be enrolled in the school.
McKay said that the course would bear a different number next semester.
County District Court against alleged Ridgeau owners were based on similar lawsuits.
The Kansas Attorney General's office filed a petition for injunction against Ridglea March 26 on behalf of four University of Kansas students who claimed that Ridglea had failed to return them a total of $200 in deposits.
The petition described the plan as "an extortionate attempt to secure additional
The petition said that a referral plan had been proposed by Ridgale owners by which former residents could recover their homes. The residents, who curried new residents for their apartments,
Summonses were issued to David G. and Laverna M. Kitzinger of Albuquerque, named as Ridglea owners in the petition. The summonses have not been answered, according to the Clerk of the District Court's office.
Douglas County Legal Aid Society filed a petition charging Intone Corp, and the county prosecutor, in court.
The petition was filed on behalf of a former KU student who claimed that Ridgale withheld a $150 security deposit even though she had discharged all duties and obligations specified in the lease agreement when she vacated her apartment.
Youth Program Sponsors More Jobs for Teenagers
Summonses issued in connection with the Legal Aid petition still are unanswered.
McKay said, "We wanted students enrolled in fine arts to enroll in physics, and this seemed a good way to teach physics to those without a strong math background. We teach by showing what happens rather than by telling about it.
Because the defendants are from out of state, they have 60 days to respond to the summonses issued in connection with both cases. In addition, the Clerk of the District Court's office.
An independent commercial program, Youth Endeavors Salesmanship (YES), will provide Lawrence teens additional employment opportunities this summer.
The program's sponsor is the Rev. H. T. Hutton, pastor of EMS AME Zion Church 1346 Rhode Island. He said Thursday that the project would supplement the Summer Employment Program which is sponsored by local churches and businessmen.
YES will provide jobs for 80 years, to sell an all-purpose cleaner which is produced by Multi International Products and distributed locally through Hutton's firm, H. T. Hutton and Son Co., 311 E. Seventh Street.
Hutton is also chief probation officer for the county juvenile court.

Following a recommendation from the Council of Presidents, the regents also dropped the requirement that entering students have a physical examination. Each school will be allowed to develop its own policy on physical examinations.
In other action relating to KU, the regents approved increases in parking permits for the fall of 1973, and approved an increase in student health service building fee from $200 million to active in the spring of 1974. The fee increased help pay for the new student health center.
Also approved were final plans and specifications for an addition to Learned
