Student Studies Climate During Late Night Runs
Keith Topp, Powassan,
Canada, graduate student, has
been in the U.S. during the last month, but they are not to Joe's bakeware like many of their peers.
SPACE TECHNOLOGY handles topics other than moon landings and takeoffs. There is a study of air pollution in Kansas, the Kansas Air Pollution Project takes it as taking temperature readings in the corridor belt between Topeka and Kansas City.
Tops is doing research on the different temperatures in the geography department and Tops is a graduate assistant in the geography department and is working in the
He said his research was twofold, the first was research for his dissertation and the second was research in meteorology and space technology on the characteristics of urban climates.
Toppas said his project was not directly related to that study but he was investigating the effect of surface material on the microstructure. He was comparing the downtown area to the rural areas in relation to temperature and the difference in the surface materials.
Menninger Decries Prison Costs

THE RECORDER has two different parts, one to measure the dry temperature and the other to make a wet reading. This allows him to get the humidity and the temperature at the same time.
The American system of justice, which demands revenge upon the state's officials, is the public. Dr. Karl Meninger, head of the Meningerian Fountain Society, died on Wednesday.
Although Menninger is distinguished as a psychiatrist, he has also been active in efforts to unify the lives of Menniger's books is "The Crime of Punishment," in which he was the author of *America's system of justice*
Menninger said the United States was too far behind many countries in improving its immigration policies, Sweden, the Netherlands, England, Mexico and Scotland as a few countries that were far ahead of the rest.
MENNINGER ALSO said that much should be done to change the court system.
"I'd drop the bail system entitle me to release people can be released on a recognizance. More people return for the court hearing who are put on their honor than those in the prison system and keeping them for weeks and months, as they do in some places, is terrible. I think, it's
According to Meninger, one of the major problems within the penal system is the prisons themselves.
"I would change the prisons especially," he said. "We can do a big job to make sure they go to go. Everybody agrees to it. That’s pretty well nationally."
MENNIGER PROPOSED alternatives for local laws. He said alcohols in detoxification are centered or intended to be instead of those that people who committed crimes without victims should not be sent to jail. In the cases of people awaiting trial, Menninger said only those who were charged could not be trusted on either their own recognizance or bail needed to be detained. He recommended that these people referred to the state for custody.
"No one of this 30 or 60 day
business doesn't help you. Anybody
doesn't it. Anybody anything good. It teaches them some things that are very bad."
MENNINGER EMPHASIZED that the uses of probation and parole should be expanded to include those advocated this for two reasons.
First, he said, it is simply too expensive to keep people in prisons. Second, almost all them recommend that 75 to 80 per cent
of their prisoners need not be in prison.
"Wardens tell us time after time that something like three-fourths of the prisoners would be off outside." Menninger said.
"It would be better for them
it to for society," he said. Why
become a prisoner? And why are

And they are coming out, you
"WE SPEND a billion dollars a year in America, just getting revenge on these fellows. Trying to avoid the pain, we spend this not for the rest of us, just on the unnecessary infliction of a painful penalty," Menninger said. "And I don't think we need the extra dollars worth of fun out of it."
"If the public knew it was costing them a billion dollars to hire him, they'd do it. It doesn't improve the prisoner. It doesn't make him a safer man to live with. It changes him, except for the worse."
"He comes out angrier and more bitter, and it's harder for him to get a job. He is a ruined man, he has been circumulated ten years. Ain't that smart? Ten years at a terrific cost, accuse $0,000, and we've kept him from passing a bad kind of investment is that?"

In Kansas, anyone convicted of a felony is sent to the Reception Center for an evaluation. The institution that would be most helpful to each prisoner is then recommended. The biggest difference was that the kind of institution that may be recommended for a prisoner had not been available.

"Most of the people in Lansing haven't done anything very exciting or violent. They've stolen a car, or were delinquent on some payments, or defrauded somebody. Or, they may have something violent. About 20 per cent are violent." Menger said.
MENNINGER SAID that if the prisons weren't violent were paroled, the prisons could be better institutions for the ones who were

The trips were scheduled to begin right after sundown because that was the best time to make readings. The sun and shadows would not interfere with their readings, as they would in the afternoon.

KU Grad Student Studies Campus Attitudes on War
By MIKE MOREY
Korean Staff Writer
Stephen Halbett, Topea graduate student, is conducting a survey concerning the attitudes of KU students toward war. The results of his survey will be used in developing a printed in the Kansan next fall
Halbett said Wednesday that the response to his survey had been good. He mailed 410 calls and 75 have returned.
He said that, to make his survey as professional as possible, he chose a random sample of 42 students taking every 42nd name from a student directory. He said he thought this method would provide a significant cross community link to the University community.
HE SAID he thought most cities
Halbert said some of the questions on the questionnaire had been used on an earlier version of the survey which was conducted in 1981.
HIS RESULTS, he said, will be compared with those of the earlier survey.
Halbert, who is working toward
the MA. degree in political science,
interested in the subject of war
and people's attitudes toward
war.
Halbert said he guessed the survey would show that most students were opposed to war. He noted that when it turned out to be true, he said, it would be a shift of opinion from the 1961 survey in which most people, especially males, were an instrument of national policy.
THE FIRST CATEGORY, status concern, dealt with the subject's attitudes toward a question to find out if the subject agreed, disagreed or was underdeed about statements such as, "ambition is the most important factor in determining success in life."
Halbert's survey covered five general categories: the status concern scale war and pacifism. The status concerns casualties and general information.
In the second section, war and pacificism, the subject was asked to make a manner as above, to statement demonstrations are harmful to the best interest of the state, but it must be willing to run any risk of war which may be necessary to maintain the spread of communism.
In the third section, level of presentation, the subject was given ranging from the present "cool war" situation to a Communist nuclear attack on the United States and whether he would respond to each of these situations with conventional reallocation or nuclear retaliation.
SPACES WERE provided for the persons who might consider no provocative serious enough to provoke a response from nuclear retaliation. Haltt said.
The fourth section was concerned with the amount of
casualties the subject would be willing to sustain in a conflict with a hostile nation.
the casualties ranged from 0 to 100 per cent of the population killed.
The last section was concerned with general information about the nature of the war, it was concerned with the nature of the war, it was concerned with the nature of the war, it was concerned with the nature of the war, it was
Service Group To Reorganize
Halbett had he knew that the questionnaire wasn't perfect, but he thought the results would still be significant.
The Douglas County Community Service Council, a human service group, will hold an organizational meeting at 8:30 p.m. today at the Plymouth Congregational Church, 923 Vermont St.
Habett said he left out several cultural background because of cost and space limitations and the difficulty in assessing the
Halbert said that although he left these variables out, he didn't think the significance of his survey would be jeopardized.

"That was on a clear night with air cold coming from the north and the inner city was protected," Tops said.
The largest difference in temperature between the downtown area and the rural area was 15 degrees.
"EVENTUALLY all the data will be plotted on maps and a computer will be used to relate data that is meaningful in states," he said.
