they have, what kind of service and what their prices are. That is human nature."
The Holldame will also have the advantage of having a promotional staff actively soliciting business. The Union doesn't do that, he said, because it is a private, non-profit corporation whose sole purpose is to provide services for the University.
"That doesn't mean that we don't appreciate others using our facilities," he said. "We don't deny that, but we don't actively compete with other businesses."
ONE ADVANTAGE THE UNION may have over the Holdome is the cost of the Union's facilities. The services provided by the Union must be less than those of the Holdome, Ferguson said.
Because the Union is a non-profit corporation, its emphasis is on service rather than profit motivation, Ferguson said. The Union tries to provide its services at the lowest possible price.
The Union's prices should be competitive also because the prices most likely be lower than those of the Holding.
"We set our prices based upon the cost of our operations, trying to provide service to the customers."
FERGUSON STRESSED THAT THE UNION was not trying to compete with local businesses. He said the "town-gown" relationship has been good and the Union wants to keep it that way.
After the novelty of the Holidime wears off and when the price factor is considered, many groups that initially go to the Holidome may return to the Union, he said.
"They will go out there one or two times to see what it is like, but we think they will come back
to the Union because it will be less expensive," he said.
The effects of the Holidome on the Union's business will not be entirely negative, he said. More people will be coming to Lawrence because of the Holidome.
The shuttle bus service will be bringing some of the Holidorne's guests to the campus, vanguard you said. They will be able to come to the campus where they don't and won't have to every about parking, he said.
"They may come into the Union and buy food and refreshments," he said. "They might buy some books in our book store."
Nearly half of the Union's income comes from the sale of books, he said.
The Union may lose some of its business to the Holdome, Ferguson said, but the Union's competitive prices and the additional traffic on the highway could help offset some of the losses that may be incurred.

ALTHOUGH SOME LOCAL organizations will not reduce heat assistance services, at least one agency, East Central Kansas Economic Opportunity Corporation, has already felt the effects of the Reagan administration's budget cuts.
"Last year," said ECKAN employee Diane Stephens, "we were able to give some assistance by providing fans and air conditioners. This year our weatherization program has lost 27 ember savings of the budget cuts, so we probably won't be able to do that much if the weather stays hot."
JoAnna Byers, employee at the Lawrence office of the American Red Cross, is also concerned about the effect that budget cuts might have on heat assistance and other social programs.
*Bureau of land records* will be given to the states in
which are now projected at 15 percent, will actually be closer to 90 percent than the states get.
Byers said that the Red Cross in Lawrence will open the Community Building, 11th and Vermont streets, for use as a heat shelter if the weather stays hot.
The theater was also used for community events. According to Lawrence residents Lucille Sanders, B3, and her sister, Mildred Frederick, B3, their high school gymnasium play on a place that was the old home of the theater.

there who looked there, and said there contests there, Jansen said.
"It used to be such a beautiful building," Sanders said. "The front of it was so pretty." Topeka radio station WREN later held dance
In 1930, the Bowersock Theater became the Dickinson Theater. In 1946, it changed again to become the Broadway Playhouse.
THE BUILDING REOPENED in 1980 as the Red Dog Inn. It later became the Free State Opera House, then first opened as the Lawrence Opera House in 1975. From January 1978 to January 1977, a disc named Buggy's occupied the building, and a present Lawrence Opera House was established.
"There are fewer than 10 buildings in Lawrence that have the history of that building."
On the Record
Lawrence police are investigating a larceny that occurred at a Haskell Indian Junior College dormitory sometime between May 25 and June 6. Property worth $3,653 was stolen.
Police said that the larcisten broke into the dormitory and stole several pieces of turquoise and Indian jewelry.
LAWRENCE POLICE ARE ALSO investigating the Thursday afternoon burglary of a house at 2021 Barker St., from which at least $350 worth of property was stolen.
Police said the burglar entered through a bedroom window and took a stereo receiver worth $350 and a 14-karat gold wedding ring, the value of which was not listed.
Police have no suspects.
Police have no suspects.
Ed Boles, a local architect who has conducted walking tours of the Lawrence downtown area, called the style of the building "low-key Beaux Arts."
He pointed out the set of paired columns with the arch between them, the pediment and the manner in which these two features projected from the building as typical of that style.
Other points of interest are the masks of
the lye and the lyre, which are
found within the pediment.
"The building really needs some exterior stabilization," he said. "The most conspicuous evidence of that is the truss supporting the pediment."
The site at Seventh and Massachusetts streets was not always used for entertainment purposes. According to Scott's book, it first served as a hardware store for the firm of Allen and Gilmore in 1854. Later that year, the abolitionist John Brown was arrested on the site. The Herald of Freedom was burned in Sheriff Jones' 1854 ride by pro-slavery looters from Leavenworth.
LATER THAT YEAR, Liberty Hall was erected on the site. Primarily a public meeting place for the city, Liberty Hall was the site of Irish playwright Oscar Wilde's 1822 lecture, "The English Renaissance." Admission to Wilde's lecture was $1. Two additional stories were added to Liberty hall in May 1882, and the Bowersock Ooera House was then established.
Jansen said he hoped the Lawrence Opera House could become such an all-rand city hall and a cultural center.
"It could perform some of those same functions," he said.

If manfind Wolfs article, "Costa Rica is not Nicaragua" upsetting for two reasons: one, his irrelevant and unformed remark about Nicaragua, El Salvador, Guatemala, and Mexico, and two, his American attitudes toward "vacation" countries.
First, Costa Rica is affected by the problems in El Salvador; its military forces are a possible intervention force should Washington decide to invade El Salvador. True, for the swinging American tourist El Salvador and Nicaragua are hardly a challenge. They can parakeet for their own people. At last the Nicaraguans and the Salvadorans have the chance to make their countries democratic peaceful, and orderly, for they are riddling themselves not of cultural diversity (Wolf's explanation for their problems) but of the American businessmen and plantation owners who have crushed them for 100 years.
I had hoped that the ugly American tourist expecting the rest of the world to kiss his feet, had died out—but he has risen again in the form of Mr. Wolf. Countries should be praised for their cultural treasures, not for subservience to Americans.
Gustave J. Rath Professor of IE/MS Northwestern University
Costa Rica may well be a paradise for those looking for single's clubs. If it is a paradise, let it stand on its own merits, not on fault comparison. *Ansparser* is a good music paper — leave the travel guides to those who have something intelligent to say

In reference to your Readers Poll, you may have been disappointed in the responses you received, but I am more than disappointed at your analysis of those responses. How dare you ask, "Who Is Leo the Great?" when your offices are located in California.
Leo Buscaiglia is a professor at the University of Southern California who teaches courses in, and tours nationwide conducting lectures on, the subject of love. He has written two books with which I am familiar. One of those is a marvelous volume, now called *Love*. In *LOVE* Not only are Professor Buscaiglia lectures well attended, but many times they

are videotaped by schools and television stations to be shown at other times.

Leo has an excellent rapport with his audiences, especially when he speaks at colleges and universities. It is not unusual for him to spend an hour after a lecture talking with, listening to and HUGGING people who come up to the stage to see him.
We're embarrassed Residing in Southern California is obviously not enough. But we're prepared to love our neighbor leo, even if we don't know bin.

Rottin' and a 'Rollin'
Enough, Already
AND NOW FOR the third Fitzcarrall item in three months; allying Jason Robards was replaced by Klaus Kinski, and now he and Mick Jagger and director Werner Herzog are happily rotting and filming in the Peruvian tungue. This film is supposed to take a long time, but we're told (may, presumably) that the Rolling Stones will indeed tour the U.S. this June. This could also make Charlie Watts, who plays drummer Charlie Watts, since Watts may not be able to tour with Rocker 88, a collection of pre-rock jump blues musicians also starring Ian Stewart, perennial pianeman on Stone tours; ex-Crystal bassist Jack Bruce; and early British hits gurus Alexia Korner. Atlantic just issued Rocket 88's live LP.
LOOK FOR THREE, count 'em, three TV series based on females in the armed forces; Private Benjamin (already on the set) and Jillian Kyle (also on Hot Wives); a group of women sent
to an island full of men; and Wendy Hooper described as "a female Gomer Pyle."
THERE WERE two versions (of several origi-
nally planned) of the Israeli raid on Entebbe; now at least six versions of the Iranian hostage crisis are stewing, but the first into production is based on the Canadian embassy rescue of Americans from Haiti. The title is *Kafircape* from Iran: *The Canadian Caper* (caper). Filmed in Toronto, directed by Lamont Johnson, it will be a two-hour CBS docrama.
WE CAN STAND one more Elvis movie, *This Is Elvis* has just emerged amidst much Warner Bros. hoopla. Producers promise never-hever-sea footage of the King's collection), plus an actual duet between Elvis and Frank Sinatra, in which Sinatra sings Elvis 'hit Love Me Tender' and Elvis simultaneously simulateous Sinatra's "Witch" songs. It was created by Andrew Stolm and Malcolm Leo, who did the TV special Heroes of Rock and Rock.
