Similar items have been distributed to downtown merchants.
John Senior, professor of physics at the University of Steve Davis, Tupaek junior, decided that a more concentrated effort to sell the wares was needed.
"The first day we made $50 and in that first week we made $110 for him," said Davis.
Davis organized the Committee for Service to Handicapped and received permission to set up a store and supply a catalog and sell Bewluer's products.

A small group of Lawrence citizens interested in converting waste land between the north and south sides of levees into a motorcycle park and a camping area met Wednesday night in the Centron Building,

According to Blevins and Guy, the rise in popularity of cycling in the past decade has created a need for people to ride the need for a place to ride off the streets, especially for families with minibikes. Major concerns have been about the use inside cars by cyclists illegally riding in parks.
Originally an old city land-fill site had been proposed for the park, according to Blevins, but this was discarded because of metal and glass lying on top of the rubble which could cause injury in a fall.

river area would completely alleviate the problem, but would help families with minibikes. Guy mentioned an old quarry in the valley ideal for a cycle park. He said it had fat and hilly areas to ride on, but that at the present time it was being used as a target range by people.
Bly suggested that a 30-40 car parking lot just off the bridge and a shelter house and play equipment be constructed. He made a walkway up the levee at that point and down the other side.
