Clinton Arouses Concern
From Page Four
proponents of a quiet lake and those who wanted to see unlimited recreational use of the water.
Quiet lake proponents argued that those who wanted activities not offered at a quiet lake would only have to go as far as Perry or Kate to engage in unrestricted activities.
The other faction wanted Clinton to be a multi-use facility with unlimited recreational opportunities including boating, skiing and motorcycling.
THE COMPROMISE expressed in the coalition's majority opinion called for unrestricted use of the main body of the lake to hold up and stabilize boats allowed in the arms of the lake.
Another area of controversy has been the question of the surrounding land and its use.
Environmentalists wanted as much land as possible to be left in a primitive state with little or no vehicular traffic in those areas.
The coalition's report recommended intensive development for two of the public areas, an arboretum in another, campgrounds and a rural and private walk-in area in a fifth.
Dischner and Gary McGinnis of the Corps' recreation division said the surface of the lake would be zoned as the coalition suggested, if the master plan for the project was accepted by the Corpor' chief in Washington.

THE MASTER PLAN also includes plans for the four recreational areas to be developed by the Corps and for the State park. These areas are Clinton State Park on the north side of the lake, Bloomington on the peninsula around the town of Clinton, Boulder Creek around the town of Lake Woodridge on the northwest side, and the Outlet area east of the dam.
Of these, the state park and Bloomington are to be developed for intensive use facilities such as a marina and boat ramp, a beach, a swimming beach and camp grounds.
The coalition recommended that when campuses were full they be closed. But the president said the state park, Kansas Parks and Resources Authority, said there were no plans to limit the number of campers entering the state park. He said areas had been planned for overflow
Two other areas, Rock Haven and Wedridge, will be developed for less interest.
WOODRIDGE will be a primitive walk-in area for back packing and tent camping
The Rock Haven area will be designated for horseback riding, making use of existing horse trails. Dischairer the area would and possibly serve facilities for capping.
A fifth area, the outlet area east of the dam, will be reserved for picnic areas and playing fields when the lake is opened. Another area would later be developed for intensive use.
All the land adjacent to the lake will be included in the recreational areas, the educational areas to be leased to the schools and the forests. Forestry, Fish and Game, Formation
Lee Dowlin, regional fisheries superintendent, said access to the wildlife management lands would probably be limited to foot and horseback traffic.
ANOTHER CONTROVERSY, as yet unresolved, has arisen over the planning for use of the private lands surrounding the country in the hands of the federal government.

Jarvis Brink, chairman of the Clinton Landowners Association, said: "As it stands now, the mini-plans is in effect. We don't like it, but it is."
He said he didn't think the plan was to just count county already had zoning laws, for it were.
--provide partial funding for the parkway.
A person should have the right to develop his lands according to his wished, he said.
The cells slated for earliest development are those north and east of the lake, or those south and west of the lake.
Too many lake areas have been over subdivided, according to Richard A. McClanathan, Lawrence-Douglas county planner.
According to Cragan, the time-cell plan would prevent spot development and keep developers from speculating on lots and bring before utilities could be extended to them.
Brink and the landowner's association have established a committee to try to find ways to fight implementation of the mini-comprehensive plan.
According to Cragan the prime project for development of the lake is currently the construction of a new dam.
THE MINI-COMPREPENSIVE plan divides the land into areas called cells to be used for the building.
The plan says that most of the development in the Clinton area will probably be underperforming.
THE PROPOSED PARKWAY would continue 23rd Street westward from Lawrence to the state park on the north side of the lake.
Hearings are scheduled for April 24 on a bill before the state senate that would
"Cragan said, "We do need Clinton Parkway very badly."
He said an estimated million visitors were expected at the lake in the first year.
The Clinton blacktop, the shortest route from Lawrence to Clinton, was closed last week. The state highway is also closed.
The Corps already has control of all the roads in the area of the lake and has closed some of them, causing further problems for area residents.
"The only roads I've been on out there are terrible." McClanathan said.
Barber said the Corps had accelerated some road construction in the area.
"You always have some disruption with major facilities of this type," he said.
PROBLEMS AND CONTROVERSIES aside, the lake was considered by most of those interviewed to be a boon for the city of Lawrence and Douglas county.
Mayer Rose said he thought the lake would "increase the quality of life in Lakeside."
He said he didn't expect any great economic growth in Lawrence as a direct result of the project, but it would make Lawrence a more attractive place to live, thus acting as an indirect economic stimulus.
Cragan predicted a tremendous amount of visitors to the park. He said the lake would serve not only Lawrence but Kansas City and Topeka as well.
Rose said he couldn't imagine Clinton as a major tourist attraction.
"While that's a large lake for Kansas, it not large, save, for Missouri," he said.
THE LAKE WILL be a 10-minute drive from homes in southwest Lawrence, he said. A person who lives in that part of the country might want to out for a few hours of fishing or sailing.
He said he hoped Clinton would be a recreation area for Lawrence more than for Lansing.

A. W. Stedham, division manager for Kansas Power and Light Co., said he saw no slowdown in his business. He projected a five per cent increase in production each
"Air quality control systems are 90 per cent electrically dried," he said. "This will take about three years."
Steadham said more businesses were changing to a totally electric operation
because of a shortage of natural gas and the high price of fuel oil and propane.
"We don't encourage customers to waste energy," he said, "to but use it more efficiently."
Stedham said he foresaw little slowdown in the growth of industry. He predicted a turn to more efficient use of energy to keep industry operating.
He said that as students in the area graduated, they would become members of new family units and consumers. Their training would new jobs and means of livelihood, he said.

This is your key to unprecedented calculating capacity. Only Hewlett-Packard offers it.
It lets you "speak" to your calculator with total consistency, because it lets you load data into a 4 Register Stack. This means: (1) you always enter and process your data the same way, no matter what your problem, don't have to re-enter data; (3) you can see all intermediate data anytime.
Our HP-45 is one of two pre-programmed scientific pocket-sized computer calculators with this key. That's one reason it's the most powerful pre-programmed pocket-sized scientific computer calculator. Here are three of many others:
1. it's pre-programmed to handle 44 arithmetic, trigonometric and logarithmic functions and data manipulation operations beyond the basic four (1,2,3,4).
2. It lets you store nine constant in its nine Addressable Memory Registers and it gives you a 'Last X' Register for register or correction *p*
Wait, the prompt says "Maintain original document structure".
Let's look at the image again.
The first line is: 2. It lets you store nine constant in its nine Addressable Memory Registers and it gives you a 'Last X' Register for register or correction *p*.
The second line is: Maintain original document structure.
Actually, the instructions say "Maintain original document structure".
I'll use plain text.
2. It lets you store nine constant in its nine Addressable Memory Registers and it gives you a 'Last X' Register for register or correction *p*
3. It displays up to 10 significant digits in either fixed decimal or scientific notation and automatically positions the decimal point through
Our HP-35 is the other. It handles 22 functions, has one Addressable Memory Register and also displays up to 10 digits in either fixed-decimal or scientific notation. It's the second most powerful pre-programmed pocket-sized scientific computer calculator.
Both of these exceptional instruments are on display now. If you're looking for unprecimated calculating capacity for your money, by all means.
