KU to Get Satellite Data
By JOLENE HARWOOD
The University of Kansas
Center for Research, inc.
(CRC) is the largest
complex satellite launched
by Vandenberg Air
Force Baug. Ca.
According to Robert Walters manager of research facilities, data from ERTSA, the first earth resources technology satellite will be received by CRINC and used in connection with six research investigations being conducted in Arkansas and Kansas State University.
CRINC became involved in the project through an invitation from the University of Arizona, Aeronautics and Space Administration, Walters said. Interest in the project was shown at both K-State and Wichita State.
"WE ALL BANED together and wrote state-wide proposals of investigations and then sent them to NASA for approval," he said. The states to receive a state-wide proposal. Approximately 300 investigators from 43 states and 31 foreign countries are involved. CRINC was responsible for coordinating the Kansas program, Walters said.
The Kansas research investigations, as approved by NASA, were divided into three teams: data processing, comprised of the KU remote sensing laboratory, agricultural, made available to the State; and geo-science, directed by the Kansas Geological Survey.

DATA FROM the satellite are first sent to three receiving stations and then to the Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenfield
It is transformed there from raw data into imagery data, Walters said, before being sent to the research centers.
"Goddard also sort out the investment team each time an investment team will be said. This greatly reduces the amount of irrelevant data collected."
This could be especially useful in the agricultural economists. Walton said it could be a more accurate method of predicting the annual yield of crops.
"THERE IS a great amount of flexibility both in the satellite and the images produced."
The agricultural investigation being conducted at KU will try to determine through the data how the farmers responded. The state of Kansas, Walters said.
"Common diseases are a large concern of wheat farmers. There is a great need to discover these diseases early."
"All research investigations are being conducted as experiments, these data can be used. Every research team will be concerned with the correlation of truth, the correlation between field investigations and the results."
AGRICULTURAL IN investigations being done at K-State will try to determine how the experiments data. Through the experiments it will be discovered if it is possible to detect water from the air, he said.
If possible, satellite data in the future could be utilized as a crop forecast and warning system.
KU Radio Station Plans Move in Fall

KUOK studies will be on the ground floor of the building, with offices above for station personnel, Dary said.

They identified themselves as James Albert Mahirun, 24. of Indianapolis, and Ronnie James McCloud, 2, of San Diego.

Weed Drying Brings Arrests For Two Men
Officers said one of the men topped a pillow case on the roof of a building, as they flied, and it was found contain about 15 pounds of dried vegetation. "Motel, they gave in, other cases filled the material."
Mahinur and McCloud were held in the county jail when they failed to pay $1,500 bond apiece. The hearing was set for Aug. 3.
McCloud's 17-year-old wife was turned over to juvenile detention for an assault as saying she was from Hanover, Ont., Canada, and had been married only a week. The car in her custody was borne Canadian license plates.
The vacated radio station facilities will also house advanced film sound editing projects.
But the new quarters will be more efficiently organized than the present "pleenea hall" President of Parking at Sudler House will also be an improvement over Hoch, explained, "parking is non-existent.

footage, it's approximately the same size."
Linton explained that currently silent film editing, sound film editing and special effects tracks was all done in the same room. In the fall, the sound-mixing equipment will be moved to the KUOK station in Hoch basement.
Linton was pleased that students enrolled in beginning radio modules would have the ability to use the旧 EUKO station in the fall.
"This way they can get the feeling of what radio is like before they hit KUOK." Linton said.
Linton said the answer to problems in the communications departments of the University would be a communications complex, although University news now prohibits such a complex
BALTIMORE (AP) —The Country Caravan, a country and city in the heart of Maryland House of Correction, likely won't go on the road any
"We scrouge around and do the best we can," Linton said. "The move really helps us."
Warden Ralph Williams said further outside appearances by the group had been suspended. The group, a 25-year-old inmate serving eight years for breaking and entering and grand larceny, escaped when white light II muscled were entered into WBAL TV to tape a program.

Geophysical investigations will determine the feasibility of using remote sensing data to determine water quality, Walters said. It is hoped that the data will help identify suit levels and stage content.
The 1,065 pound satellite will have a day at an altitude of 270 feet pass over Kansas at approximately the same time each day.
Ambassader George Bush, chief U.S. delegate to the United Nations, came up from Washington and said "strongly" told Waldheim the reports were part of a massive unanthese propaganda campaign.
But he added that whether the bombing was intentional or not, he was deeply concerned by word of the damage.
"We're not really sure when we will begin to receive information," Walters said. "It will take a while to get the satellite if it is unmanned and must be entirely controlled from the ground."
The SATILLIE contains two sets of cameras taking seven pictures at a time. Each picture takes eight seconds, and side, he said. It will take 18 days.
to cover the state and then the cycle will repeat.
Walters said that five KU professors were principle investigators and that between 25 to 30 KU students would be doing research for the investigations. He said they had one year, Walters said. But proves successful ERTS-B will be launched to succeed it.
UNITED NATIONS. N.Y. (AP)-A storm blow up Monday the United States and U.S. Navy at Walheim, the Waldheim over Walheim's mention of reports that U.S. had damaged dikes in North Vietnam.
In Washington, Secretary of State William P. Rogers said information about "alleged bombing" of the dikes was false.
He declared, "We cannot consider helpful any public statements giving further currency to these reports."
Waldheim, fresh from a visit to Europe, said he had such reports from unidentified channels. He asked the reporter to verify the reports, he which was his duty "to speak out on the consequences which might result."
At the end of his meeting withwaldheim, Bush told reporters hewas convinced that the secretarygives credibility" to the reports.
Waldheim told a news conference that he could not say whether the reported bombing of dikes was intentional. He said he had assured by the U.S. government that the dikes were not a target.
