Popular Bar Owner Dies Leaves Warm Memories
Louise's bar is probably best known for its schooners, 32-ounce glasses of beer. Less known but equally appreciated was Louise's warm and generous attitude many of them KU students.
LOUSE WILLIAMS, owner of the bar at 1017 Massachusetts; died Jan. 9 of cancer. Perhaps Louise's is not the best known spot for student drinkers, but those who frequent it will miss. Ms. Walsh made the bar her sole profession and major concern.

Medien said Louise knew many of her customers personally especially the students.
"SHE LIVED FOR THE KIDS
at the University," said Dorothy
Medien, who works next door at
the Vanity Beauty Shop "The
bar was her home. Those who
were there knew everything about her."
"At Christmas time, it was just like a department store down there," she said. Louise usually bought Christmas presents for her children and customers. She often entertained them at her home on her birthday.
Louise, who was 58, owned the bar by herself and was the only one in town when her illness forced her to hire a part-time helper, Maxine Johnson, a Lawrence resident. Until then, Louise worked 12 to 15 hours.
SHE WAS NOT THE FIRST OWNER of the bar. Originally called Johnnie's Grill, the bar

Last year's winning script, "The Road to Pruning Hook's," was a fictious documentary about GL's after they had returned from Vietnam, said Peter Dart, associate director of the film. It was written by Steve Warner and was an anti-war film which depicted the dehumanization of the GLs.

"Her house was like a little doll house, like Louse, in place," she said. Medin said that although the bar was Louse's main concern, she had other interests, such as football. The football players knew all the football players and many football statistics.
Louise was born in Plattsburgh, but lived 30 years of her life in Brooklyn. She married when she bought the bar, she later was divorced. She raised her children at Ammunitions Plant and at J. C. Penney Co. 830 Massachusetts.

"If I could get my hands on my first grade teacher now, I'd break her chalk."
It all began in the first grade.
faint. It was the system she had to
The old "run, Spot, run" method.
But don't blame your first-grade teacher. It wasn't her fault. It was the system she had to teach.
You had to read it out loud. Word by word. And that's the way it was until you became a second grader, Where your teacher asked you to read silently, but you couldn't do it.
You probably stopped reading out loud, but you still said every word to yourself.
If you're an average reader, you're probably reading that way now.
Which means you read only as fast as you talk.
About 250 to 300 words a minute.
And that's not fast enough any more.
Not when the average student has approximately 8 hours of required reading for every day of classes.
And since the amount of time in a day isn't about to increase, your reading speed will have to.
In order to handle it all.
The Evelyn Wood Reading Dynamics course can help.
At any rate, we guarantee to at least triple your reading speed, or we'll refund your entire tuition. (98.4% of everyone who takes the course accomplishes this.)
With training, you'll be able to see groups of words. To read between 1,000 and 3,000 words per minute.
So don't waste time thinking about whom to blame. Come take a free introductory speed reading lesson. We'll increase your reading speed on the spot. It takes about an hour to find out how you can reduce
And it ought to be worth an hour of your time.
