Soyburgers . . .
(Continued from page 1)
Roberts said, "It doesn't taste like hamburger, more like a mild sausage. You have to learn to like it—it grows on you. We got a package of the meat and we (the employees) tried it. They all liked it because of the difference in taste. You aren't even aware of the presence of soybean in the burger."
The King Burger is composed of 70 per cent hamburger, 25 per cent soybean paste and 25 adding flavor.
The King Burger has been sold in about 20 of the 146 King's Food Host stores for seven years.
"We'll have a table tent on each table with the story of the King Burger on each side so the public will know what they are buying," Roberts said.
"THEYVE BEEN USING them in Indiana, Nebraska and Iowa," Roberts said. "They attribute 20 per cent of their sales to the Double King and the King Burger, and so far they've had no complaints that I know of."
With the sharp rise in meat prices, consumers have begun to experiment with either meatless or meat-stretched menus to see if they are a bit behind the large companies.
Ahead of the consumer by several years are such companies as General Mills Inc., Archer-Damiels-Midland Co., Ralston Company, and the subsidiary of Mills Laboratories Inc. The companies have been developing soybean products that have nearly the same taste as meat or nuts. Some products are already on the market and experimentation is continuing.
Soybean products are additives to many canned or frozen foods like soups, stews and broth.
human being (for soybean) as a meat substitute," Pritchard said.
Clark's arraignment in the district court has been set for May 7 on charges of rape, attempted rape and two counts of aggravated burglary.
Complaints filed by the county attorney against Clark stated that Clark broke into a woman's room in Ellsworth Hall on Dec. 10 and raped her.
"The price of soybean is rising for
a while because of increased consum-
ption."
He said soybean was used in products for human and animal consumption because of its high protein content. Large-scale and small farms use soybean extensively, he said.
Clark has also been charged with attempting to rape another woman in Ellsworth Hall after allegedly breaking into her room on Dec. 20.
WIS also provided an opportunity for trainers to compete on a national level, WIS also
"You could consider people using soybeans as a meat substitute as a cause to the rising price, but you couldn't attribute the rise to just that one use." Pritchard continued. "Soybean is a relatively new product and it has a lot of possibilities."
CONTRADICTORY TO THAT view is the vision of Leland Pitcherid, professor of economics at Cornell University.
"It's like buying a set of clothes for $120. If you know what you are getting for your money, people will purchase it. It's the same way with beef. If people know they are getting 100 per cent beef for their money, they are still going to buy it.
ONE POSSIBILITY is selling a hamburger-soy mixture in grocery stores at a lower price than 100 per cent hamburger. It is sold in Minneapolis, Minn., have introduced "Jumbo" fresh meat counters, the Wall Street Journal has reported. It is selling from 20 to
Leroy Cremet, meat market manager for Rusty's Hillcrest, 901 Iowa, said. "Even if the boycott does continue, I don't think I'd buy the soy-hamburger mixture.
THE INTERNATIONAL CLUB, an organization supporting 14 individual international groups, presented a budget request of $8,060.

25 cents cheaper than the all-beef hamburger and is 75 per cent beef and 25 per cent soy protein.
THE MAJORITY of the meat managers at grocery stores said they felt the same way Cramtiel did. Some would buy the soy sauce because it is cheaper, even if the high meat prices continued.
Abdulah Al-Adwani, Kuwait junior and club president, said the purpose of the club was to link all international groups in common activities.
Answering complaints from other international groups received by the Finance and Auditing Committee, Al-Adwani said the International Club had always welcomed all students, followed a one mane vote rule and currently had five different nationalities represented on its board of five officers.
Condon speculated that the reason for the price rise was not commercial use but industrial.
opportunity to learn coaching skills, according to Visser. Total club membership is 100.
Tallgrass is an endangered species according to E. Raymond Hall, professor emeritus of systematics and ecology and a fellow at Robert Docking's park advisory committee.
"ANY TIME SOYBEANS are used commercially it will show on the label," said Glenda Condon, a nutrition aide for the Douglas County Extension Service.

Hall said that the area involved was roughly a triangle of 60,000 acres in the Flint Hills, including parts of Butler, Chase, Lyons, and Greenwood counties.
Hall urged setting aside a Tallgrass Prairie National Park to preserve tallgrass as a species at a meeting sponsored by the American Forest Association, Inc., Monday night in Dyche Auditorium.
The area has two caretaker families and is the best location because it would be the most people. Hall said. The tract is south of Kearney and the Kanas Tumpike and west of K-99.
Funding...
Use of the soybean is good news to the people who grow and process soybeans. The demand for soybeans has increased and so has the price.
The case against Harold Clark Jr., 18, a former university of Kansas student from Columbia, S.C., was bound over Monday to Douglas County District Court following a preliminary hearing in Douglas County Court.
"Three months ago we received no requests for soybean feed. Condon said, "We just got a little cold."
U. S. Department of Agriculture researchers say that by 1980 soy protein could account for as much as eight per cent of the nation's "meat" requirements.
The main problem Hall said he had encountered in planning the park was opposition of cattle ranchers who were afraid of a reduction in their territory.
The park could be used as a yardstick for soil scientists, hydrologists and biologists to measure the effects on the land from grazing livestock and cultivating crops, Hall said, adding that the research area would include only a small area of the park.

The cattle ranchers would also benefit.
Hall said, if the proposed park would adopt certain procedures such as rotating herds between pastures to defer grazing on ceramic pavers for one year, insuring crop the next year.
The park, Hall said, would take less than a third of the state's grasslands.

Hall said that the park would be created for the use of people as well as animals and plants, but recommended that the number of people should be as possible damage to proposed park areas.
