Gas Explosion Causes $30,000-$50,000 Damage
According to Keith Lawton, Director of Facilities Planning and Operations, an estimated $30,000-$50,000 damage was caused in a gas explosion near Battetleford Scholarship Hall. The area involved included Battetleford, the Sprague Apartments, a parking lot near
Batterfield and a utility tunnel. Repairs were started 30 minutes after the explosion, and if the crew gets the necessary materials, they can be done quickly.
Undecided Votes Top Poll
By BRAD AVERY
Kansan Staff Writer
Caution. That seems to be the attitude of many University of Kansas students in regards to lending their support to one presidential candidate or another early in the campaign season
This was the conclusion reached based on a random sample of 42 people contacted Monday night. Of those replied to the question, "What would you support at this time?" 42 persons said they were not ready to be contacted.
Typical of the comments in that category were those of Susanne Kane, a junior computer science student, who thought she needed more time before committing to her studies.
"RIGHT NOW I really don't
know who to support," Albers said. "I would rather take more time to investigate the issues and updates before I commit myself."
In addition to caution, there was a great deal of cynicism that permeated the category. Typical of that attitude was James Gaddie, Lawrence
"I don't have a choice because it really doesn't make any difference," he said. "If Muskie wins the Democratic nomination, which he probably will, there will be no challenge to him and Nixon." Gaddis said.
Of those who supported a candidate, a plurality endorsed George McGovern, D-S.D.Who received 22 votes from those nominated in the primary, D-Maine, and Richard Nixon each received 18 votes. However,
even in this category there was a dogmatic, emotional bias that favored one man over another simply because the candidate
RICHARD NIXON had surprisingly strong support for what is generally considered to be his own community." Those who supported the President GMG civic club in Vietnam played as the reason.
Karen Craft, Edson sophomore, was representative of that stance.
"I think Nixon's withdrawn,
policy should be given a chance."
Craft said, "If he not reelected
that the final result of it will be."
Only 1,150 students under the age of 21 have registered to vote in this poll. Passive passives received in this poll and the small number of registered voters have
