Prison Proposal Made
By DONNA HOWELL
Korean Staff Reporter
The Division of Continuing Education at the University of Kansas has a proposal for a prisoner pre-release program pending before Kansas' secretary of corrections.
Gary L. Warnley, director of the Institute of Public Affairs said recently he expected the program would be reviewed by the Robert R. Rainey, sometime this month.
The program would consist of counseling and instruction to prisoners at the Kansas State Pentiment in Lansing. The prisoners would be those who would soon be paroled.
Instruction in basic communication skills, law, basic psychology and job opportunities
Warnsley, who was in charge of developing the program, provided the program, provided by KU.
Wedding Prices Increase, But Tradition Still Prevails
Mr. and Mrs. Marc Linton were married June 14 in Lawrence. Their wedding cost about $800, which was paid by the bride's parents.
There seems to be a trend for traditional wedding ceremonies over nontraditional ones, even though the price of a traditional wedding ceremony is increasing each year.
"We wouldn't have had it any other way," Marc Linton said last week. "When your anticipate that your wedding will last for your life, 800s isn't that much to spend."
Mrs. Jeff Hoffman, married May 24, said one thought that weddings were getting too crowded.
Linton said he thought people got married in traditional services as a "public celebration" for the couple's friends and relatives. Because Linton and his wife, Donna, are both from Lawrence, he said they had to have a ceremony large enough for their wedding friends. Nontraditional weddings were more rare, with a public celebration with close friends, be said.
"But I'm glad I did it the way I did," she said. "I don't plan on getting patched badly."
It is apparent that most couples, not just the brides, consider their marriage a once

in a lifetime event and want to make the most of the day. Expense is something that they have to put up with if they want a traditional ceremony, they say.
Anne Moore, a member of the Friends Society, said yesterday that a Quaker wedding ceremony "will be as simple or as magnant as the couple and their parents decide."
The Rev. Norman Steffen of the University Lutheran Church said that of the women he met at the conference, he could see a trend towards traditional ceremonies. He stressed that the couples who adapt and develop their own services would be able to find women, find the ceremony more meaningful.
Each wedding ceremony is as unique as the bride and groom are. Music selections, altar decorations and the wedding party's attire determine the type of ceremony.
The traditional Quaker wedding ceremony is performed by the couple, without the need of a licensed minister, by exchanging vows. A committee of Quakers selected to witness the wedding are called a bride and groom. This statement is then accepted as a legal certificate of marriage by the state of Kansas.
The prisoners need to be prepared to face the hassles of everyday living, Wamtsley said. When they are released, life is doubly difficult for them, he said.
Wamley said KU already had a program for developing job skills at the prison but did not have a program that would prepare the prisoners emotionally for their releases.
Under the program, the prisoners would be given 90 days notice of their parole. Then they would be moved to special dormitories and would be under less rigid requirements.
Wamsley said the dottories would be like half-way houses where the prisoners would be able to change their social roles. They would be provided with adequate security,
Local Hospital To Be Enlarged
The addition to Lawrence Memorial Hospital, to be started in 1975, will add 40 beds, new lab surgical and emergency rooms, and medical centers for radiology and dietary maintenance.
Don Lentz, hospital administrator, said Friday that existing facilities were obsolete and crowded. He also said the cost of hospital care had increased tremendously since 2014, when he retired from the country but by Lawrence Memorial the cost was still lower than most hospitals.
Recently the cost for a patient at the hospital increased by $8 a day. Lenz said
"It will be one the nicest hospitals in
the country. After the addition is completed," he said.

The session will be from July 13 to Aug.
21. This year's enrollment is the largest
Seventy-three students are expected to attend the 24th session of the Orientation Center for Foreign Students and Scholars at the University of Kansas, J. A. Burzle, director of the orientation center, said yesterday.
The program, the oldest of its kind in the United States, is funded by the U.S. Department of Education and the Institute of Education. Ed.D. students at $46,983.78 has been granted for the center, which will be staffed by faculty members at University at Baldwin and Indiana University.
THE KU ORIENTATION CENTER is the only one of the 28 original programs remaining and one of three offered in the United States.
All of the students are graduate students and Fulbright scholars, said Hester Williams, administrative assistant to Burzle.
The program was a result of President Truman's idea that the Fulbright program should be expanded by offering six to eight weeks of orientation before the academic
year, KU applied to host the orientation program in 1951 and was accepted.
The main purpose of the center, said Burzie, is to introduce the students to American life and history and to help the students with oral and written proficiency in English.
A new feature of the program this summer will be a four-day meeting between students returning home in December and new students from the same countries. They will be able to discuss their recent experiences in the States and in the students' home countries.
A speed reading program will be another new addition to the institute program.
THE STUDENTS will live in Joseph R. Pearson Residence Hall during their six-week stay. They will be officially welcomed to the city of Lawrence on July 15 by Chancellor Archie R. Dykes and Mayor Jack Rose.
One-hour classes will be offered in composition, research skills, note-taking, vocabulary drill and social problems, institutions and values in American society, according to Williams. She said there would be more opportunities for music, American etiquette, job opportunities available to foreign students, travel information and banking policies.
Activities planned are trips to the Truman Memorial Library, Perry Reservoir, the Nelson Art Gallery in Kansas City, Mo., and Haskell Indian Institute, said Williams. She will visit with Gov. Docking and weekend cities with families in Paola and Kansas City.

David Katzman Gives Lecture on Blacks in Inge's Plays
Blacks Unimportant in Inge Plays
Prof Says Author Mirrored Society's Apathy
By KATHY PICKETT
Kansan Staff Reporter
William Inge's plays described an era of black invisibility,
David Katzenmayer, associate professor of biology, lost last night.
The reason for this, Katzman said, was that blacks were generally unnoticed by the rest of society. They weren't part of the whites' social world but were there for the physical comfort of the whites.
"Safe right last night." In a speech, "The People of Inge's World: Black life in White America, 1920-1960," Katzman told about 40 person in Murphy Hall that black people in Inge's plays were merely intagl images.
This is why blacks were only shadowy images in Inge's plays, Katzman said.
"They are part of the landscape of the world of William Inge but not of his emotional world," he said.
"Inge used Independence, Kan., as the setting to explore people, their own sense of themselves and their relations with other people. The landscape is only a background," Katzman said.
THIS DOESN'T MEAN IMEan's plays should be dismissed as a distortion of reality, he said.
"If Ige neglects to inform us about ordinary black people, he has enlightened us about the experiences of ordinary white people. And ordinary white people have been as absent from out history as black people," he said.
The fact that blacks appeared only as latent images in the play, Katzman said, illustrated how people in Kansas can see black.
"Seeing Inge's plays performed, I see the latent images beyond the veil," Katman said. "Black people fixing streets, painting houses, picking up garbage, sweeping stores, cooking and waiting, cleaning up afterwards; men and women working long, hard hours but rarely interacting on an emotional level with the white people, that is, the people in the footlights."
Katzman said blacks had a long history in Kansas. There were several black settlements and communities be said.
HE SAID MANY BLACKS agreed on the slogan “Kansas is a good place for blocks to come from, not to go to.”
Katzman, said many things today were different from the days when Ine wrote his plays, the '40s and '50s.
If I wrote today, KATKAT said, blacks would certainly have been part of his world because blacks are recognized as an important racial group.
