Group Studies Complaints
By MARTY LYONS Kansan Staff Writer
When the Complaint Center, a project of the Student Services Department, proposed the committee wanted to name their idea Ombudsman, according to Susan Goering, an assistant professor at Harvard. However, the project was named the Complaint Center because of the Ombudsman Organization.
Goering said that the Ombudman Organization consisted of law students who acted as a liaison between students and administrators or faculty in an effort to fairness of grading procedures.
Goring said that the Complaint Center was designed to receive complaints about University services such as admission, admissions and Kirkins Memorial Hospital, the Kansas Medical and the cafeterias.
The centers were posted in all
the residence halls and all the buildings on campus in March, according to Goering. A center itself consists of a yellow poster with black lettering and white complaint forms, according to
Goering said that a student could tear off a form, fill the form out with a complaint or a request for an insurance dress and telephone number and place the form in the envelope. "They must sign their name," Goering said.
The reason given by Goering for the requirement of signed complaints was that the information Services Committee could look into the complaint with the student who made the complaint. The complaint was concerned enough about his complaint the investigators could do a better job of research on the problem than could the individual.

KU Photographers Win At Intercollegiate Contest
University of Kansas photojournalism students won four first and second place awards at the annual International competition judged at the University of Missouri at Columbia.
Harvey Haster, Lavern. Oak
senior, won first and second place
in the pictorial category. Jir

personality and college life
categories. John Larken, Prairie
school senior, took in the portrait-personality
category. Steven R. Craig,
Garden City junior, took second
place in the picture story
sequence category.
A total of 16 of the 72 students selected for the traveling show were those of KU students. Other students whose work was in connection with

Grad Students Given Awards
Four KU graduate students have received Falbright-Hays awards for graduate study abroad.
They are James W. Park of Lawrence, Norman S. Hastings of Lawrence, Joe L. Wilkinson of Lawrence and Joel L. Wilkinson of Nashville. Penn. Tennis will study in Columbia. Hastings in Kentucky and Wilkinson in the Soviet Union
committee members in the investigative branch of the Student services Committee take the role of a mediator of the Student services committee so that they can write up the Studentnote, Goring said.
Goering gave an example of a complaint concerning Watson's book "The Book of the Book" books were too high. She also said that a suggestion was made that the Student Services Composition Center had academic buildings such as

Murphy so that visitors and new students could find their way around.
"The purpose of the investigative branch of the Student Services Committee is to correct deficiencies." Goering said.
She said that the Complaint Center would help them find deficiencies in student services.
E. Jackson Baur, chairman of the institute, will be the resultant scholar. will be Engineers for Rivers and Waterways C. from July 1972 to June 1973.
Prof to Work In Washington
He will be a leave of absence while he works as a consultant to the Board and participates in planning for the Association's Planning Associates Program.
Even though other researchers are doing similar work, Schlager said he believed that his study was especially significant

Prof Experimentally Links High Blood Pressure, Genes
By DENNIS LINGLE Kansan Writer
AFTER SELECTIVELY breeding thousands of mice for seven years, Schlager has found that they are most sensitive (genus that impends a tendency for the mouse to have high blood pressure) to be extremely sick. The high pressure in humans is many times the result of aggressive behavior. (Thus, the corporation becomes the target of heart failure.)
Schlager said his aim was to mimic the human alimentics in animals that lack the gene or genes that may cause blood pressure extremes. Genes are the cellular materials that transmit traits from parent to child.
Gunther Schlager, associate professor of systematics and ecology, said recently that he has found experimental evidence that susceptibility for high blood pressure in humans may be inherited.
Schager, a geneticist working under a two-year grant from the Kansas Heart Association, has conducted tests concerning the genetic causes of high blood pressure and hypertension and heart failure.
because he was investigating the role inheritance played in blood pressure, and had developed a more advanced further cardiovascular studies.
Another facet of Schlager's effect is the feeding of the physiological reserve in diet of mice with high blood pressure and those with blood pressure too low. The addition of salt to the mice's diets resulted in elevated blood pressure.
"THIS IS why many orientals, who have high salt content in their foods, on the whole have a hard, good pressure," said Schlager.
With this knowledge, Schlagger said, doctors will be able to detect the possibility of high blood pressure in children by testing the testing of the child's parents. If the patient is a probable victim of high blood pressure and pressure-related illness, would place the patient on a salt free diet. The next step would be to place the patient on a job which requires very little pressure.
By controlling the environment for the hypertensive person, doctors could improve his chances for a longer life.
ALTOUGH Schlager's study was directed at the genetic causes of heart disease and pressure, many times in a single possibility of heart attacks, he
also recognized the fact that the environment was a major antagonist to the person suffering from hypertension.
"Certainly these mice don't attack the cages," office can be said, "the Schlager, 'but maybe I will do as one researcher did have cats inside the cages."
Schlager said he viewed his work as an explanation of some of the unknowns surrounding the heart of disease. His findings, researchers in developing ways to prevent heart attacks.
