Tent City Plans Suffer Setbacks
Kansan Staff Writer
By DEANNA VANDERMADE
Resurrection City III, a poor people's tent city planned by the Kansas City, Mo., chapter of the Southern Christian University in July 23, has suffered terribly sebacks.
In a decision Friday night by two of the park commissioners of Kansas City, Mo., the tent city was banned from the Mill Creek Park.
Officials said the hurried decision in the absence of a third black commissioner smacked of racism. The matter will go before the city council Friday to determine whether the poor people will be allowed to camp in the park.
Enamuel Cleaver, executive director of the SCLC and project coordinator, said they may have to find another place in the city to camp, but added: "We're going to have a poor people's city here. That decision is irreversible."
CLEAVER went to the Parks and Recreation Department last week and asked permission for 150 poor people from Kanasa City to set up residence for a six-day period in the park at Forty-Seventh Street. The city, just north of the J.C. Nichols Fountain,
The announcement of the proposed poor people's city sent city officials scurrying to check legal aspects of the plan and any problems which might be involved.
Frank Vaydik, parks director, said the board would have to make a decision, but that he was not in favor of the SCLC's request. He said that the parks board received requests constantly, and their response was not appropriate down because they were not properly recreational activities. He said he was concerned about property damage and
about a precedent for nonrecreational activities in the parks.
GEORGE EIB, parks superintendent, said there was no ordinance against him. He did not want to be one against setting up tents. He said the proposed tent city was in violation of "park policy" and it was in violation of the park for any political or religious purpose.
There is an ordinance requiring certain sanitary conditions and an ordinance against excessive noise that could be violated in addition to the ones about tenting in religious and political functions in the parks.
HE SAID the city council would have to violate these ordinances if the project was going to take place, and he said that it was wrong to be allowed to "address a permit to violate the law."
James Reed, president of the local SLCCh chapter, said this was not a political or social problem. He also mentioned to show that there were people desperate need in Kansas City. He also said that restoration of any property should be done in and that the SLCCh would take care of it.
Vincent Foley, chief of environmental services, has said that the campers would have to set up toilet facilities and have them moved by the city plumbing department.
Ast. city prosecutor David McConnell indicated that there were ordinances "which generally seem to prevent this type of thing."
Cleaver said the group would use sleeping bags instead of tents if necessary. They would have all the portable facilities to take care of sanitary necessities.

O'Brien Draws McGovern's OK
George McGovern acted Sunday to widen his support among Democratic regulators by confirming his choice of Lawrence O'Brien to remain as head of the Democratic National Committee. And he announced he would seek a fence-ending session this week with AFL-CIO president George Meany.
tramurals fill KU's summer sports schedule. A review of summer sports is on page 4.
But the South Dakota senator and leading contender for the Democratic presidential nomination would not close the door on the possibility that he would refuse to support the nominee if the nominee was someone other than himself.
What McGovern did do in an interview on ABC's "Issues and Answers" and an impromptu news conference afterwards was repeatedly predict that the convention in Miami Beach next week would be run according to the party's reform rules.
He said again he expected to win back the 151 California delegates he lost in a Credentials Committee action last week and on go to win the nomination.
Later Sunday, Stephen Reinhardt, Democratic national committeeman from California, announced that several members of that state's convention delegation were filing suit in Washington against the Credentials Committee in an attempt to win back for McGovern the 151 delegates.

Reinhardt said a hearing before U.S. District Judge George L. Hart was for his district in 2013.
He said at the time he 'couldn't possibly support a convention that would sustain public opinion'.
McGovern has termed the committee's action "an incredible, crotal, rotten attack."
wouldn't have any part of any convention nominee would support this."
But Sunday McGovern refused to use language quite so threatening.
"I would be inclined to support the nominee if he is supported by an honorable legal process according to the rules of our party," McGovern said.
"I don't think there's going to be any third party. I never have."
But McGovern would not rule out his own walkout or third-party move if the Credentials Committee were upheld by the Senate. But he would be lose to the nomination as a result.
"He's been a good chairman," McGovern said of O'Brien. "I think he's a fair man, I think he's one of the ablest men in the world," he accepted by all elements in our party."
Later Sunday O'Brien issued a statement saying he could not 'make any妄谋' and he did the selection of a nominee next week. He said he would remain neutral until that time. But, he added, he appreciates his generous expression of confidence.
Nevertheless, there appeared to be little doubt among McGovern aides Sunday that O'Brien would accept the post if McGovern is the nominee.
AFI-LCIO leader Meany has remained officially uncommitted in the race for the Democratic nomination but is considered a supporter of Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey of Minnesota or Maine Sen. Edmund S. Muskie.
M. Govern said he thought Sen. Edward M. Kennedy of Massachusetts told him that when he said he had no intention to accept a place on the democratic ticket this year.
Newsmen Invited to Raid Briefing By Miller, Says Surprised Elwell
Kansan Staff Writer
By ROBERT FULKERSON
County Attorney Mike Elwell said he was surprised to find newsmen with photographs at a briefing before Karasan shot him. He led a drug raid in Lawrence Thursday.
"It wasn't our local people who told the press," he said. "In our original request to the attorney general's office, we specified no newsmen."
"We planned the briefing to coincide with the regular shift change so that the coming and going of officers wouldn't attract attention." Elwell said.
The attorney general is primarily responsible for the press being here, said Sackoff.
"We didn't notify anybody. We did everything we could right up to the time of the arrests to limit information about the operation. Then right in the middle of the raid we hear an announcement about the raid over the radio."
"The public has a right to know," said Elwell, "but do you have to be informed in such a way that it warns the defendants before we have chance to arrest them?"
Elwell said his "personal preference" would have been for the news media to have arrived at 7 a.m. instead of 6 a.m. He said people were still being apprehended at 7 a.m. and the reporters could have had more time to explain that they could have at 6 a.m., and they not have taken the chance of aiding any suspects.
"The attorney general should realize how popular he is," said Elwell. "I understand that the attorney general likes to work hard and wants to be in the middle of things, but there was no need to drag in all the news media.
The Douglas County Attorney indicated he would like to see more cooperation in the future between his office and the attorney general's.

Goals Projected
Groups Study Education's Future
By VICKI MONNARD Kansan Staff Writer
- The future of higher education is now under consideration by the Kansas Master Planning Commission (MPC) and the Carnegie Reports.
The MPC on post-secondary education was created by the 1970 Kansas Legislature to outline the objectives of education in Kansas for middle level students. The MPC also developed an elementary-secondary school system and the four-year college and university) and
Fireworks Display, Music Planned for July Fourth
Fantastic displays of multi-colour fireworks celebrating Independence Day have become a deep rooted American tradition. This year the Lawrence Jacyes will present their annual display at the University of Kansas Memorial Stadium.
Although the actual fireworks will not start until dusk, the gates will open at 11 p.m.
Local 512 of the American Federation of Musicians and the Paul Gray Dixie land Band will present a concert starting at 7:50 p.m. at the Jaycee Allen, vice president of the Jaycees.
Highlighting the $2,750 display will be Uncle Sam kneeling in prayer, the American flag and an Apollo moon shot, Allen said.
"Proceeds from the display go to help fund other projects of the Jaycees. All the money we make goes right back into Lawrence." Allen said.
Tickets for the display are 50 cents in advance or 75 cents at the gate. Advance tickets may be purchased from the store or from area business establishments.
the private education at two-year and fouryear colleges and universities.
There are 17 private four-year colleges, 19 public community junior colleges, 5 twoyear church-related colleges, 14 area vocational-technical schools and the Kansas Technical Institute in Kansas.
The original MPC plans did not include the six state schools or the municipal university (Washburn). But in 1971 the seven schools were included in the study. It was evident to the commission that suggestions or resolutions concerning such problems as the governance of post-secondary institutions, and without looking at these six schools, governed by the Board of Regents, and Washburn University of Topeka.
During the first year of operation, the commission made an effort to compile and generate three types of date for education planning in Kansas; the number of high school seniors projected through the mid-1980s by regions and for the state as a whole; educational and training requirements of the economy of Kansas projected through 1985, and an assessment of student outcomes for seniors and graduates, area vocational-technical school, community junior college and independent college students.
This data were used to fulfill various charges set down for the commission by the legislature. One of these charges was to recommend a plan for governance and
coordination of post-secondary schools in Kansas.
On July 13 and 14, Lewis B. Mayhew, professor of education at Stanford University, will meet with the commission to discuss the mission will confer on how the state might set up governance and coordination. According to Kenneth E. Anderson, executive director of MPC, Mayhew will present his appraisal of the commission's plan.
The final report of MPC will be prepared by next fall for the Kansas Legislature.
Anderson said, "We don't know what its fate will be after it goes to the legislature for consideration. They may put it on the shelf or in the archives or they may imitate it in part or in whole. The minute it leave our hand it enters the political arena."
"One of the things we will recommend very strongly is a permanent education planning commission," he said. "It is impossible to do good planning for education if you only do it periodically or every 15 years."
The commission, now an ad boc group, will be dissolved when the report is finished. Anderson said that adequate funding and staff would be necessary if the proposed education planning became a real mission, as proposed by MPC, would still consist of laymen, but a staff of professionals would also be provided.
Former KU Student Seeks Seat in Senate
By RALPH NICOL
By KARL H. NICOL
Kansan Staff Writer
Dave Broyes is a former KU studentrunning for state office without trying to capture the "student vote." The Democratic candidate for the Second Chamber seat, Broyles discounted the effectiveness of voting power by college students.
"I'll be frank when I say that I don't think the student vote will be effective on the state and local level this year. Most students will not be informed on local and state races and just will vote a straight party ticket," Broyles said.
Broyles is a 197 KU graduate in journalism. He said he was going to concentrate most of his campaigning in the Lawrence town area. He thought that a "University candidate" would not be effective at the state level.
"I'm not running primarily as a University candidate," Broyles told the Kansan. "I'm convinced that any legislator who may become known as a
BROYLES also believed that those who normally voted by parties balanced each other in an election, so that the winner was decided by independents.
University legislator won't be very effective in representing the University. He would probably be largely ignored by his fellow legislators."
"Seventy to 80 per cent of the independents in this town I think, are not at the bottom."
"What I'm concerned about," Broyes said, "is the marketability of a degree. On the job market right now, let's face it, a liberal arts degree isn't worth that much."
Broyles told the Kansan he was afraid the large numbers of graduates driving taxis and washing dishes because they couldn't find better jobs might convince the legislature that KU was a bad investment.
Given a tight economic situation, the main thing a person with one or two years left until graduation is thinking about is his job prospects. Bryroy said, he suggested
that there be programs at KU to give graduates some vocational-education experience.
"STUDENTS AT Kansas University can
Broyles said he supported strengthening the KU Law School. He said that there was going to be considerable pressure from the Wichita School in the next several years.
take Chinese and oriental philosophy, but can't take basic typing, shorthand or other readily marketable skills that are normally taught at junior colleges." he said. "Academic snobbery could block introduction of some basic courses, admittedly nonacademic, that would assist the graduate in obtaining a job.
"Unless these attitudes are changed, KU could lose in significance relative to the junior colleges and vocational schools. Since higher education in the United States has always been able to obtain marketable skills if the University is to retain its present significance."
The issue Broyles is most concerned about is the state taxation system. He called it a regressive system that placed burden on poor and lower-income families.
Equally in need of revision was the method of school financing. Bryden says
"THEER HAS been no basic revision of our tax structures since 1933," he said, "and it is taking its toll among the poor and lower-income citizens."
"State aid to elementary and secondary school districts has fallen from about 50 to 33 per cent. 'Boyles says, 'because the state aid has been going down while the costs have been going up.'"
Bryoles blamed this situation for producing negligent decisions in the district in the state.
Harold Keltz is opposing Broyles for the Democratic nomination. Keltz is a lawrence businessman. The incumbent, Booth, is unchallenged in the Republican race.
Broyles accused the legislature of refusing to act on this situation, because the legislature, he said, was waiting to see what would happen in the Supreme Court to various legal challenges to similar methods of state school financing.
