Truckers' Strike Worsens
The independent truckers' shutdown continued to grow Sunday, causing two states to call up 3,400 National Guardmen to deal with violence in the stoppage that has brought warnings of possible food shortages by today.
By the Associated Press
Pennsylvania Gov. Milton Shapp urged an 45-day moratorium on the protests that have spread across more than 20 states, to which he called a "national economic calamity."
But spokesman for the striking truckers, and drivers interviewed Sunday in three states, said they will not put their rigs back on the road until they get assurances of lower prices for diesel fuel and a guarantee that higher fuel costs can be passed along to trucking companies on a dollar-for-dollar basis.
MORE LAYOFFS were reported in Pennsylvania and Ohio, where the three-day-old spreading strike has had some support for 10 days. In all, at least 15,000 workers would be temporarily out of work by today, and thousands more in other areas are in danger if the shutdown continues much longer.
Pennsylvania called up 2,500 National Guardmen to relieve 1,400 others who have been on duty since Friday, to stand watch on state highways.
"The actions of a few lawbreakers have created an atmosphere of fear among truckers who want to drive their rigs in Ohio," said Gov. John J. Gilligan as he neared the conclusion of his NEaska, Nebraska, Gov. James Exon directed state troops to keep him apprised of problems.

Violence continued. Tires were slashed and horses cut at several truck stops, nails driven into the sidewalk, and South Carolina, Indiana, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Tennessee, Mississippi, Oklahoma and Nebraska during the night Saturday and on Sunday.
As the shutdown continued, concern increased over the flow of meat, produce and citrus from the farms and meat packers to the consumer.
A dozen meat-packing plants and slaughterhouses from Texas to Philadelphia have either shut down or cut back operations, and very few trucks were
Glassblowers Enjoy New Studio
Kansan Staff Reporter
Glass, mass produced in the United States since the industrial revolution, today enriches and more artists to blow their creative expressions into fragile form.
The University's unique glassblowing studio and courses were born of J. Sheldon Carey's interest in glass as a medium of artistic expression. Carey is a professor of

"I'll coming back like wild fire," Carey said. "Said, is water where ceramics were 20 years ago."

He predicts glassblowing will progress much quicker than ceramics did. Young artists, uninhibited and searching for new mediums, are intrigued by the ancient art of glassblowing and unafraid to experiment with it.
Some of his students will exhibit their work in the 20th Designer Craftman Show, featuring works by local artists.
He said the process of creating blown glass at the KU studio was started by mixing a 100-batch batch of glass from very fine sand and assorted chemicals.
Color is purposely introduced into glass by additions of metal oxides such as copper, tin, and lead.
Molten glass is gathered from special tank furnaces on the tip of a blowpipe. Several gathers are made in the creation of different colored glass for different furnaces for different colored glass.
Artists work quickly to create form, retrieving a gather and, fighting gravity, chilling the molten glass's surface to develop a skin to blow into. The artists must constantly observe temperature and be able to unpredicted developments in the form.
Carey's formula produced a clear, colorless glass. He is using a $2,000 research grant from KU to experiment with color in glass.
Mavering, from the word marble, is a rolling action that creates a cylinder; the process was originally done on a slab of marble but steel tables are used today. Gravity will pull a piece into teardrop shape.

Final separation of the piece from the punity is a critical step and precedes placing the new art form in an annealing oven. The oven must be set at a high temperature and turned off at night so it will slowly cool.
The artist must be ever vigilant to temperature and be fascinated and receptive to the sound.
After the artist completes the glass form and separates it from the blowpipe, he finishes the neck of the piece with shears and jacks—tweezer-like tools. He then places it in an annealing oven to temper it. Then he transfers the glass into a mold, ending wheel to smooth the surface further.

The annealing process relieves stress in the glass that could cause cracking.

In Duluth, Ga., the Gateway Truck Stop in was nearly full of idle trucks, and no diesel fuel was being pumped. "We want to avoid trouble," said shift manager Jerry Butler, which views the most of truck stop managers as workers rather than shut down than to cause conflict."

THREE HUNDRED rigs were reported stopped at Lone Star, Tec., in California, spokesmen for the striking independents said Sunday night that on the main route from Dallas to Los Angeles there was not a truck stop open.
The proposal for a branch union was made in 1966 and finally rejected by a committee.
Warren said yesterday that informal discussions in committee meetings of the Memorial Corporation Board, which operates the Union, centered on the need for more food service and lounge areas on campus.
There is definitely student interest in a satellite lunite, he said. The recent opening of a food service area in Wesco Hall hasn't relieved the crowded conditions of the Union's cafeterias, he said, and is an issue of the need for more food service areas.
He said that action to revive the satellite union would probably have to come after the election of new student leaders and the introduction of new SUA officers later this semester.
Rolfs said there was a need for a satellite union in the southwest part of campus, but he didn't think he would be in favor of committing student funds to the project. He said he thought existing space might be needed for additional food service and lounge areas.
Beauniar said the Student Senate should look into the possibility of a branch union, but that he wouldn't favor any significant increase in student fees to finance the
Both candidates for student body president, John Beisner, Salma junior, and Ed Rolfs, Junction City junior, said they student input on the idea was necessary.

existing space to provide more small food service and lounge areas.
"What's needed, if we do anything, is a more complete facility," he said.
One possible method of financing the construction of a branch union, he said, would be to rent space in the building to businesses.
In 1966, Chancellor W. Clarke Wescoe asked the University Planning Council to consider a proper site for a satellite union in a campus master plan for buildings and sites.
The planning council selected a site for the satellite union, and after a feasibility study by the University architect, the building was to be northwest of the project in June 1966. The site for the building was to be northwest of Allen Field House and across Irving hill Drive from the University.
The proposal for the satellite union was part of a student referendum in April 1970. The $1.8 million proposal was rejected by students, and, although less than 20 per cent of the student body voted in the referendum, the vote killed the satellite union issue.
The satellite union project now consists of drawings, old committee reports and a budget.
Throwing debris on the court is a source of embarrassment to all of us—both as players and members of the student body—not to mention the risk of injury.
To All Jayhawk fans:
Support with Cheers, Not Debris
members of the University of Kansas varsity basketball team we take great pride in representing our school and the many faithful fans who have played a part in the success we are enjoying this season. Invitably, it seems that the team is one of the tremendous crowd support K.U. basketball teams receive at home.
However, we feel compelled to write this letter in hopes of rectifying a situation that concerns us all. We are referring to the throwing of cups, ice and snow.
I'm showing you distributions of a user’s environment to artifice it — both in front and behind the screen of the computer. As a team we want to ask that you help us. If you are anyone doing any of these acts please ask him to refrain from doing so. Not only will you help us do our job but you will help maintain a positive image for the University.
We would also like to use this as a means of thanking you for your support. It is badly needed if we are to continue having a successful season.
Sincerely, Tom Klivisto

Nixon to Send Budget to Congress Today
President Nixon sends his record-breaking $30.4 billion budget to congress to complete a trio of White House messages traditionally taken on Thursday.
He delivered his State of the Union message Wednesday and submitted his annual Economic Report on Friday.
The budget total for fiscal 1975 was disclosed in the Economic Report, which also showed there would be $4.9 billion deficit.
But the massive budget itself will reveal how Nixon has allocated the money to carry out the programs he has recommended.
Arab Oil Embargo Might Be Lifted
The Saudi Arabian foreign minister, Omar Sakkaf, was quoted yesterday as saying Arabia will lift their oil embargo "when the United States proves it" (AP).
President Nixon said in his State of the Union address that Arab leaders plan an urgent meeting soon which may result in lifting the embargo, declared along with a general production cutback to pressure on Israel. But when he was referred to an already planned meeting in Tripoli on Feb. 14.
Sakkaf said he was "fully convinced that the United States has begun for the first time since the 1967 Middle East war to work seriously to reach a solution".
Arab, Israeli Troops Clash at Golan Heights
Syria said Israeli artillery pounded Syrian military positions and fiverab villageages at the end of a day-long series of sharp clashes on the eastern side.
"Our artillery reacted violently and inflicted heavy losses on the enemy sources of fire," said a communiqué issued in Damascus.
Gunmen Free Hostages After 30 Hours
The Syrian claim made no mention of casualties at the military posts or the civilian villages. But communiqués said the 10 hours of intermittent fighting erupted at points along the entire front and was the heaviest since the October war.
Three masked gunmen freed two latexes later yesterday they had held aboard a Greek freighter in Karachi, Pakistan harbor for more than 30 days.
They said the terrorists were flown out of the country after being assured that the Greek government would lift the death sentences imposed on two members of the army.
The Pakistan Foreign Office and the head of the Karachi port said the commandos, still masked, released Chief Officer Nicholas Lambropoulos and Chief Engineer George Perimeris of the freighter M.V. Vori at 10:45 n.m. time—2:45 CST.
The gunmen, their nationality still unknown, then were driven to the Karachi airport where they boarded a jetliner. Their destination wasn't
Explosion on Bus Kills 12 Soldiers
An explosion ripped through a bus on a highway near the Yorkshire town of Batley early today and killed 12 soldiers. police said.
There was no immediate indication whether the explosion was the work of Irish terrorists.
The police said the troops were part of a group of Fusiliers returning to the Catterick base in Yorkshire from a furlough in Manchester. The bus was a part of a weekend service being operated because a slowdown by train and firemen has halted railroad services throughout Britain on Sundays.
Three other buses taking troops back to Catterick from weekends in Liverpool, Liverpool and Leeds were stopped and searched by police, but no one was found.
