Kaprow said that highs were appropriate measurements human beings made in order to maintain a healthy body.

'Fantasy Factory' Album Proves Traffic Still Alive
SHOT OUT AT THE FANTASY FACTOR TRAFFI 1 (inland-Capitol Records)
By JOE ZANATTA Kansan Reviewer
The third part built around the idea of juxtaposing two measurement systems, he
new bands that originated in the mid-'90s remain a force in today’s music. The majority of those that have survived can be found in a staging pool, content to live off a name that once meant creativity and great music.
Traffic is one of those rare bands that have managed to produce a string of consistently good records. The band was unjustly overlooked in its early days, but has surfaced within the last few years and earned the attention that was long overdue.
Dudding replaces Herbert C. Miller, M.D., who is stepping down in compliance with the University's mandatory retirement age for chairmen of departments. Miller will remain on the faculty as professor of pediatrics.
Dudding joined the Medical Center faculty one year ago with a combined academic appointment in human ecology and pediatrics. Born in Charleston, W.Va., she moved to Indiana in music and theory and his M.D. from Cornell University.
Dr. Burton A. Duddling, 34, of Suffolk Pawnee Lane, Fairway A., has been named chairman of the department of pediatrics at the University of Kansas Medical Center.
"Shoot out at the Fantasy Factory" is the latest release by Traffic. It has some flaws, but the overall good quality displayed more than makes us for the mistakes.
The second side is the better of the two. It leads off with "Evening Blue," a mellow tune that sounds like early Trotsky. Chris McCormack's song with background saxophone work.
The album opens with the title cut, a driving tone reminiscent of a few "Low" songs. The vocals are unusually poor. Stevie Winwood's vocals are blurred and most of the lyrics are unintelligible. If it weren't for Traffic's instrumental ability the cut would be a
"Roll Right Stones" is a little excessive in length (13:40) for the amount of repetition. The song features the expected smooth instrumental performances, with good background percussion work by Rebop and Tabby. The recording also improves on this cut.
Dudding Named Dept. Chairman For Pediatrics
Wood steps into the spotlight for the next cut, "Tragic Magic." The song is built around a series of solos by Wood, with noteworthy help from Baena and Winwood on piano. It's the best cut on the album, showing Traffic's individual talent during the first part of the cut and then coming back as a tight group for the remainder.
"Uninspired" closes the album. Despite the title, it's one of the best cuts on the album. It's a blend of slow blues, Winwood's vocal and piano work and interesting chord progressions. "Uninspired" should receive some air play along with "Tragic Magic."
The biggest complaint that will plague "Shoot Out at the Fantasy Factory" will undoubtedly be that it's not as good as "Low Spark of High Healed Boys."
"Lark Spark" will probably be the high point of Traffic's career. To top the effort an that album would take a miracle, "Shoot Out at the Fantasy Factory" is no miracle, only an album of good music well worth the listening.
BARTOK QUARTET: The KU Chamber Music Series is sponsoring this performance at 8 p.m., Friday in Swarthout Recital Hall.
REO SPEEDWAGON: Contemporary rock group will perform Friday and will be joined by the duo of “Pike” will play alone. Tickets for “REO Speedwagon” and “Pike” Friday night are $3 in advance and $5.30 at the door. Tickets for “Pike” Friday night are $1.50. Show starts at 9 p.m. both nights.

Album, Concert Give Opportunity For Fine Jazz

"Though you have illumination you may not see a thing. Though you have the instruments, you may not measure a thing," said Karnow.
The fourth part made the whole piece more complex, according to Kaprow. It was the most abstract and paradoxical, he said, and not the conclusion in any physical
**'WEATHER REPORT'—'WEATHER REPORT', (Columbia Records)**
"Weather Report's" first album represents a collection of improvised and formal jazz music, including modern jazz groups. For those who know little about jazz, or are searching for an alternative to rock, country or classical music, the Weather Report would be a good place to start.
The album is not highlighted by any lead guitar or drum solo as might be the case with most rock albums. Instead the album relies on the inventive, creative blending of different styles and sounds, acoustic piano, saxophone and other sounds not heard in most other music.
Joe Zawilow, leader of Weather Report, claims, "The music is a soundtrack for your imagination and head." Jazz often accompanies music off the stage because they have not taken the time to listen to it. Opportunities to hear it are rare other music can deliver air time than any other music he radds.
If you are tired of the "same old stuff" see Weather Report tonight when they play at Hot Audiolorum. After listening to them and feeling as if you've come to love as to whether jazz is your kind of music.

Geography Prof In Line for Job
Joe Eagleman, associate professor of geography at the University of Kansas, said Tuesday that he was fairly certain of being an avid astronomy student for positive positions in NASA's Project SkyLab.
Eagleman said that NASA had already hired 53 scientists and that he was now engaged in contract negotiations with them.
Skylab is an orbital workshop, which will be launched in May, Eagleman said. The laboratory, a converted hull of a Saturn V rocket, will be joined in orbit by a modified Apollo spacecraft manned by three astronauts and two cosmonauts laboratory, he said, the astronauts will conduct solar and medical experiments, and observe Earth's weather.
