Going to Greensboro? Class Absence Excused
Shankel said at the regular biweekly administrative press conference that he had drafted an official memorandum encouraging instructors to allow students to make up all work missed because of the tournament.
However, he said students should make specific arrangements with their in-room teachers.
Students will be excused from classes to attend the NCAA basketball finals in Greensboro, N.C., this weekend. Delai will serve as the director for the Lawrence campus, said yesterday.
On other topics, Shankel said that some of the recommendations made recently by the Computer Resources Task Force had already been adopted.
He said Chancellor Arche R. Dykes and the University administrative group had approved plaques Tuesday to adopt a two-year plan to replace the present single computer.
The new two-computer system will separate academic and administrative functions.
The administrative group also appointed
a faculty committee to begin planning the new computer facility, Shunkel said. Ralph E. Christoffersen, professor of chemistry, is head of the committee.
The committee will be responsible for developing a general description of the computer facility and for selecting a site for the building. No decision has been reached to whether both computers will be housed in one building or in two different buildings. Shunkel said.
He said he was generally pleased with Kate's appropriations from the 1974 legislation.
"We think the legislature has treated the University fairly," he said.
However, he said the 7.4 per cent increase in appropriations for the category of other operating expenses in the KU budget wouldn't over inflationary costs. He said costs of books, magazines, scientific equipment and postage had all risen.
"Most of our studies also indicate that it will probably take a 10 per cent increase for two more years in a row after this one to see if we can be certain which the regents are committed," he said.
Research is being done at the University of Kansas that may prove valuable in discovering a cancer for cancer, Brower R. Burchill, associate professor of physiology and cell biology, is studying damage to cells by ultraviolet radiation.
Burchell recently published a theory that the radiation damage to cells results from a toxin produced in the cell by an ultraviolet beam.
Burchell said ultraviolet radiation could be either a cause of cancer or a cure. He added that cancer was often caused by disease and lead to cancer, but a large dose used when treating cancer could kill the malignant cells. He said the difficulty was to arm the radiation properly without damaging the skin.
Burchell said he and his assistants weren't searching for a cure to cancer but were trying to learn more about the human cell. He said that much more knowledge about

"Scientists can't always look for an immediate application for their work. If we had to wait for that we would still be in the dark ages," he said.
they find a cure for cancer tomorrow."
"They should put more money into basic research and maybe in about five or ten years they will be ready to find a cure for cancer.

Burchell said his research was concerned with understanding the regeneration process in cells. Regeneration is the process by which new tissue has been lost. He said that once regeneration was properly understood, further research should be undertaken for cellular diseases, including cancer.
"I hope I'm wrong, however. I hope that
"But," said Burchill, "in order to know what is abnormal, you must first understand what is normal. This is the function of basic research."
"We need to understand what life is like," parishul said. "When we understand this, the world will be a better place."
