Watkins Space Requested
By ANN McFERREN Kansan Staff Writer
The department of anthropology at the University of Kansas has submitted a proposal to the University Space Committee requesting permission for the department to move to the Watkins Memorial Hospital building when the new Student Health Department is according to Henry P. Lundgaard, chairman of the department of anthropology.
"We are badly in need of space," Lundgaarde said. "Everything we need is already in Watkins and we could move right in with little or no modification, at the same time holding the cost to the University down to a minimum."
According to Keith Lawton, director of facilities, planning and operations, there have been no specific plans made for the other than it be used for academic purposes.
The University Space Committee will review requests for use of the building by all interested departments and will then make recommendations to Chancellor Raymond Nichols, Lawton said. Nichols will decide whether he will relocate to the old hospital building.
Lindagaraid said there was sufficient room in the Watkins building to solve all of his problems.

Kaufman joined the staff at the University of Georgia in 1967. Before that time he was the head of the department of architecture design at the Cranbrook Academy of Art.
The sub-basement and attic in Watkins Memorial Hospital are not suitable for classrooms. They could be used for the storage of field equipment and museum collections that are now improperly stored in space in Dyce Hall, Lundsgaarde said.
Kaufman also served as design consultant to U.S. Rubber and to General Motors Corp.

"If we are not able to get the Watkins building, we will still have to take immediate action to obtain more space for our research elsewhere," Lundsgaard said. He explained that all of the research that is necessary to remain a respectable anthropology

"If the building is given to another department, the University would probably end up spending thousands of dollars tearing out the old labs and counters." Hisgrain said. "We need to put that type of equipment in another building for our department."
Although December 1973, has been set for the date of completion for the new Student Health Center, Lawton said the University Space Committee has no date for completion and is waiting to be invited to Watkins building. Several departments were interested in the building, he said.

Museum Fund Drive Passes Halfway Point
Over $100,000 has been collected for the Elizabeth M. Watkins Museum fund, Charles Haverty, chairman of the fund, and James K. Wednesday. He said the goal was $200,000.
Haverty said that since only 77 or the 300 contribution cards have been collected so far, there was a good chance that he goal would be met by Monday.
The 320 pledge cards are those remaining out of a total of 300 distributed by 75 solicitors, he said, to persons believed best and most significant contributions to the museum fund.
A final report will be given during the meeting of the Douglas County Historical Society at 4:15 p.m. Monday at the Eldridge House restaurant, Haverty said.

"If there are that many people giving that much money," Hawerty said, "in their eyes, they don't understand."
Phase one of the fund campaign will end when all everyone on the original list of possible contributors has been contacted, he said.
A request to the entire community for additional funds to either push the total over $200,000 or to add more features, such as an elevator, will be the basis for the second phase. Haverty said. Extra movies might be used for operational expenses, he said.
