Headquarters, Inc.Has Financial Difficulties
By CARL YOUNG Kansan Staff Reporter
Headquarters, Inc., a local crisis center, is having financial problems. Eve Unfer, Director of the Center for Public Affairs,
Headquarters needs money for another full time staff member and a fourth telephone line. A second staff member could obtain information from volunteers could obtain needed information.
Volunteers make up most of Headquarter staff. They counsel people who contact Headquarters.
Headquarters also needs another telephone line because it receives about 600 calls a day.
"When somebody out there is having a drug reaction, he doesn't need a basy agent."
For the 1957 year, Student Senate gave Headquarters $1,000 for salaries, $2.232 for rent, $894 for three phone lines, $200 for printing and office supplies and $100 for fuel. Funded Fund gave Headquarters $10,000, of which $7,737 less than it requested.
"The feeling I got when I was at the Senate meeting was that they were very supportive of Headquarters." Unkefer said, "I didn't pay the money but they just didn't have it."
She said the Senate supported Headquarters because most of the volunteers were University of Kansas students. They provided a necessary service to students.
KU Pharmacy To Be Audited This Summer
The University of Kansas pharmacy at Watkins Hospital will be audited and investigated by Keith Weltmer, legislative counsel, and members of his staff, this summer.
Weltner said Tuesday that all phar-
nices operate by the device would be
inherited from the original device.
The study was prompted by the problems
larned State Hospital with staffing its plato-
nies.
"The committee will review the operation of all state pharmacies, their management, inventory control and economic lot size," he said.
The audit will be done during July or August and the report will be given to the managers.
Dr. Martin Wollmann, director of KU health service, said the audit was to give the legislature an overview of any problems in state pharmacy and control of drugs at each state pharmacy.
Headquarters' drug abatement program offers information to persons with drug problems and aims to promote "sound decision-making." The staff is trained to handle drug over-dose cases and bad trips. It is also a requirement for month for help with drug related problem.
Personal crisis assistance tries to fill the gap between the assistance a friend can give a person with a minor problem and the medical treatment a person would receive at a mental health center. A 24 hour hotline is available.
The united wheels program offers transportation to low income people who have no way to get to medical appointments, job interviews and other important places. Volunteer drivers donate both time and gas for transportation.
A program for high school groups, Loth Lorien, provides meeting space and leaders for discussions about school or family problems.
The court referral program offers educational sessions with professional consultants on drug laws and life planning cases referred by the Douglas county courts.
Uinkefer said that during the fall and spring semesters, Headquarters had about 70 volunteer workers. Her job is to recruit new volunteers and do administrative work
Reflecting on headquarters' financial situation, Unkefer said, "We'll keep going because so many people care. It could be a much better operation if we had somebody doing the back-up typist thing and making sure that everything was done in a professional, business-like way."
Headquarters has requested $35,864 from the National Institute on Drug Abuse. A ruling on the request, which would finance a drug addiction fund for offenders, is expected by the end of July.
Unkefer stressed that the grant would fund only the new program and that the money would not add to the general operating fund.

Upward Bound Students Compete in a Consumer Math Contest
Upward Bound Program Praised
Kansan Staff Reporter

"I think Upward Bound has helped me as an individual and I think it can help anyone else if they try." Delores Leduc said.
The University of Kansas Upward Bound program is meeting this summer for the first time. Upward Bound, was designed to help high school students develop the skills and motivation necessary for success in education beyond high school, according to Jacob U. Gordon, assistant professor of African studies and director of the summer program.
Upward Bound is a year-round program that recruits 50 high school students from Lawrence High School and Wyndotte 'and Harmon high schools in Kansas City, Kan. Students who have difficulty academically and whose families meet income requirements are selected for the program.
"Upward Bound has helped me," said Marquita Stevenson, 16, Lawrence High School senior. "It settles out of my mind and gives me a new foundation."
The national Upward Bound program was founded in 1960 under the Department of Health, Education and Welfare. The Lawrence and Kansas City, Kan., program began late last fall under a grant from HEW.
Income guidelines are set by the office of the Commission on Education, according to Clarence Reynolds, assistant secretary.
have your parents around. You learn how to cope with situations."
There are 43 Upward Bound students living in Olive Hall for the summer program, which lasts eight weeks. The students attend morning classes in basic and consumer math, contribute positive skills in English and law in a changing society.
Instructors for the classes are Linda Suderman,
Lawrence High School counselor; Gene Williams, Wyandotte High School teacher; and Joseph Johnson, Lawrence law student.
"They (Upward Bound instructors) work with you more than a regular teacher. They help you in your weak spots," said Tony Avery, 17, Waydette High School junior and student recreation director for the summer program.
"We are trying to develop basic skills so that they (the students) are equipped with all the necessary tools to seek gainful employment in society," Reynolds said. "A great deal of counseling is involved."
Some students participate in voluntary independent study programs, unique to the KU Upward Bound program. Through these programs, students gain practical experience and learn how to work with people in businesses and community organizations.
"We try to let them know what they're going to be in for. Getting them work on the job with people in that field."
Frank Fuentes, 16, Harmon High School senior, said he hoped to eventually participate in the independent study program.
"I'd like to be an electrician, but they couldn't find any place for me to be an apprentice," he said.
As a reimbursement for losing possible job opportunities, Reynolds said, each student receives $20 a month for participation in the summer program and $20 a month for participation during the academic year.
During the academic year, UpwardBound students come to KU for bi-weekly Saturday sessions, which include such special projects as producing their own newspaper, News Unlimited.
Kevin Rowan, 17, Wayndette High School senior, is a sports reporter for News Unlimited; the experience he said will be useful in his work.
"I was not too sure whether I wanted to go to college or not," he said, "so I decided to truward Bound."
After eight years, the Upward Bound program is still strong in spite of the elimination of similar programs by federal budget cuts, according to Eddy Wood, Kansas City, a residence hall counselor for the KU summer program.
Wood said she didn't think the Upward Bound program would be phased out.
