Adams, Leneka junior and Triangle president, was one of six fraternity presidents kidnapped by the Sigma Kappa pledge class last night for their service project. The frats pledged to supply one of the two pounds of president. 100 cans were collected and will be given to the Emergency Service Council. Other frats were AKL, SAE, Lamda Chi Alpham, Delta Chi and Theta Tau.
Local Architects Favored by City
BY GARY NEIL PETERSON Kansan Staff Writer
Since 1967 Robertson, Peters,
Williams Architects of Lawrence
have done the planning and
design of c21 of the past 23 projects
According to Dennis Kallsen, assistant city manager of Lawrence the city has the skills to interview with prospective architectural firms anywhere for proposals and facilities for businesses.
The Mercer, city clerk, said, in the city commission holds these nine bikes that she wants they want. She said there are no bikes taken, but the letting is available.
However, Mercer said, the reasons for this are that architects have a professional ethic which does not allow them to conduct solicitous public relations, and the fees for this work have been standardized at 5 per project of projected construction costs.
In recent plans to renovate the Lawrence downtown business district the city hired Halpin Racine, San Francisco to do the design.
JACK ROSE, city commission member, said lately there has been some concern by city officials that work should be kept in town and not farmed to out other firms outside of Lawrence since the city was founded.
Rose said maybe the designing should have been done by a local firm. He said this would alleviate some of the communications. The job would be of the highest quality if the designer had produced, he said.
ROSE SAID he felt every architect in Lawrence had the same
chance to be awarded the job of the planning and designing city projects.
Mercer said several architects in Lawrence had been interviewed by the city commission since 1987.
Walter J. Hicks, architect, who has been practicing in Lawrence since he set up his own firm in 1969, said he has never contacted by anyone from the industry for prospective jobs for the city.
Hicks said, "If a project for less than a million dollars were to be planned, I think I could do the work." And views were reviewed by the city."
"I WOULD LIKE to be in a marriage," she said. "Nancy Hambleton, Lawrence vice-mayor, said. 'We should ensure we need equal and comparative pay.'"
Lawrence R. Good and
Lawrence W. McDonald, who
because he began in Lawrence
in 1971, he had not been contacted
for any projects since none were
released.
Robertson, Peters, Williams
Architects are responsible for
the city's public buildings,
defences as the municipal
swimming pool, Prairie
landing, and city-county government
building, and the public library.
MERCER AND Kallen pointed out the laws of the city there are no provisions outlining the procedure to be followed in the selection of the designers and that the way it is being done now
Good said he hopes the city in the future will come to him for his services.
The awarding of contracts for construction bids is written in the city codes.

Continued from Page 1 financial matters and that he ran less risk of error if he filled out his own return.
IF THE HAXANY ADRDER decides to turn the preparation, Failer said. These are ways for him to protect dishonest prepares against dishonest prepares and prepared a set of guidelines for using preparation services.
—Never sign a blank return
—Do not sign a tax return
prepared in pencil. It could be
changed later
-Avoid **preparers** who 'guarantee' refuses or wants a percentage of the refund
-Aways have to '---' not to the
and your purchase of the refund.
—Always have your refund
check mailed to you—not to the
preparer.
Although there have been few complaints about income tax preparation services in Kansas, the IRS has just completed an investigation of "selected" preparers in this area, according to a statement by the director of the IRS in Wichita. Leonard said one of 'IBS'
national regions had conducted a survey and found that a few preparers were sending in 90 per cent of the claims, including fictitious claims.
"We're not after the services that are just incompetent. We're after the ones that are intolerant or downright crooked."
"That region found some flyby operations on them, and themselves empty stores and then just disappeared, and some that guaranteed refunds," she said.
"We made the same kind of basic selection for investigation in this region," he said. "We had to get it on our hands because services were not on the level."
There were some pretty odd-looking returns coming in here, too.
"There are currently no laws requiring the licensing of these services," he said, "and the police investigator has said that we are not complying it. That would only cause problems of enforcing legislation."
