Police Focus on City Relations
By JERRY VOKRACKA
Kansan Staff Writer
Practice training involves more than just learning to use guns and mace, John Shepard, police-community officer, said. Shepard said through training programs, the police officer needed to have a license and people in the community he served.
To establish better relations with the community, Shepard was appointed by the governor in November when the position was created by the Lawrence Police
Shepard, who previously was supervisor of patrol officers, said that before last November there wasn't any authority relations in the police department.
"Community relations were handled
through the human relations office of the city, which dealt only in city problems." said Shepard.
SHEPARD SAID the position was created by the police department to establish communication specifically in terms of the community and the police.
"Certain segments of the community are against the police because of what they represent. There is no set pattern for establishing relations with different segments, we just have to work in a way that they can trust us," said Shepard
Shepard said the biggest problem that confronted him was gaining the trust of people who normally didn't trust police.
"By establishing better relations between these segments and the police department, I hope to learn what these people are thinking so we can possibly
make changes within that will benefit the community." said Shenard
COMMUNITY RELATIONS has even been included in the training of new recruits where emphasis is placed upon human relations, Shepard said.
"In order for a man to deal with another person, he must be aware of the other person's feelings," she said. Shepard "we have found law officers in the past who have treated people equally and so, which only benefited the white or high society of the city."
HE SAID he didn't handle all the complaints. Some are directly handed to the police, while others are handled by police. Sheard said he thought the general mood of the community was to seek a more truthful and flexible type of approach, which the police officer was associated as a member of the local government authority. He was also official that the citizen came into contact with more often, he usually bore the trunt of local citizen discon-
Another aspect of Shepard's job is to handle complaints from citizens. He said the major complaint recently had to be addressed by a parking ordinance. Shepard said, however, in the last month the city had an increase in vehicle fines and a vehicle, unless a complaint had been filed, in which case the police department tried to contact the owner of the vehicle.
Shepard said a misconception students had was that they were treated differently than other members of the community.
"Students have the impression that for them from traffic are the area they want to visit. They would neglect it a little further, they would see all members of the community are treated

KU Crime Rate Increases
By ROGER FULK
Kansas Staff Writer
The University of Kansas is now faced with a growing crime rate.
Crime reports are up from previous years. During the 1969-70 school year, there were 16 reported assaults. Since January 2013, 22 assaults reported. Traffic and Security sources said Thursday.
Most of the crime on campus occurs at night in the central campus area due to poor lighting or offices located there. The theft is the most common crime. Already, since July 1971, there have been 325 reported crimes.
Traffic and Security sources reported that while a percentage of students live in the campus to students, almost all of the violent crimes and most of the student students, people who live in the area surrounding the cam
most often reported missing were TV's and stereos.
DURING THE Christmas-New Year break, there were over 30 reports of theft, inspector V. Wong reported the Department said Thursday. Most of these reports were filed by students who were out of town for school. All their apartments to find some of their belongings missing. Items
WASHINGTON (AP) -Employing a new method to aid breathing, researchers report dramatically promising results in treating hyaline membrane leaking in killing of newborn infants.
Harrell said there had been a long time before the previous years, and even though the reports would probably turn out to be unfounded, the situation was not going to change.
Hardest hit were fraternities, sororites and apartment complexes where most of the residents were students.
HARRELL SAID a lot of students in these areas had items stolen when they left their rooms. Short time and trouble to lock the door.
He also said he thought it was a small group of non-students who were responsible for most of the burglaries.
He cautioned students who planned to leave Lawrence for breaks to avoid putting their minds on things he had received reports in previous years from students who had been dropped, or when they planned to leave. The next morning, they found the car had been broken into and their parents were there.
There will probably be increased patrolling during spring break in areas where the number of injuries is high, according to Harrell.
He said he thought members of student living groups could greatly help decrease the crime patrolling the areas they live in.
