Sharp power reductions, apparently caused by an explosion in a large generator, dimmed lights, knocked television stations off the air and halted elevator service. Another example was when Consolidated Edison said the voltage reduction was centered in the midtown area around Grand Central Station; but reports from outlying boroughs indicated the reduction was more widespread.

Reports Indicate Russia Could Ruin U.S. Missiles
NEW YORK (UPJ)—Secret reports reaching the White House indicate that Russia may have been involved in firing line to wipe out U.S. Minuteman missiles in a first Greek magazine reported Sunday.
U. S. nuclear strategy is based on the assumption that enough of the world’s resources would survive a first strike to permit massive retaliation against all nations.
Columnist Stewart Allop cited other reports saying the Russians are testing weapons which could be used in combat and may be producing jet fighters which could destroy aircraft. U.S. reconnaissance planes. S.A.E.
Alaop said U.S. intelligence has informed President Nixon that the Islamic State is a huge SS9 intercontinental bomb, interconnected internally independently warheaded warheads.
Freezing Weather Syncopates Chime
One of the notes in the carillon's quarter-hour chimes is missing.
This gives the chimes a bossa nova beat; instead of their usual standby,
they play on the same pitch.
Lounge Established For Town's Teens
Albert Gerken, University carillometer, said that the skipped note was due to ice that had formed around the cables that ring the bells every 15 minutes. One of the cables is frozen so that it can't move and strike its corresponding bell.
The syncaptosed chimes you've been hearing since Friday are just another result of the cold and snow weather.
Gerken said it was possible to dislodge the ice from the cable, but that he would probably wait until the ice melts. Until then the campus would be safe.
In a college town like Lawrence something is needed to fill the gap between high school and junior high students, according to Jane Seats, KU-Y
The Teen Lounge was set up to remedy that problem. The Rev. Stuart Hirick of the First United Methodist Church contacted the National Coalition for Welfare about establishing a place in the church where young
people could come to talk to each other and students from the campus. The Teen Lounge began its second semester Friday.
"Sometimes these kids are confused, angry and frustrated and need to talk to someone who can understand them than they are," Ms. Seasairad
The program was successful last semester, Mrs. Sears said, and she is the third student introduced this semester, including volleyball and leathercraft.
Reconstruction of the recently bombed portion of Summerfield Hall will possibly begin within a few weeks, an associate director of programming systems and applications at the computation center, said last week.

"General specifications," Rummer said, "have been formulated and the state architect is required to specify applications to be put out for bids."
Rummer said that construction work would depend on the availability of contractors after the construction project. The present structure will be modified during the building to meet the requirements of the computation center, he said.
Rummer said that special security measures are being implemented to bombomed bombs is completed and the present security deficiencies have been addressed.
Astronauts Test Leukemia Cure
SPACE CENTER, Houston (UPI) — Apollo 15's astronauts used the weightlessness of space to measure the purity of the purest vaccines ever and relieving the shortage of blood platelets needed to treat cancer.

The process is called electrophoresis. The organic molecule makes a leak on an electrical charge when placed in slightly acidic or alkaline water and then moves through the container holding the solution when an electric current is applied.
Lighter molecules move faster than heavier ones, so the original substance gets broken into its smaller parts because of the drag of gravity. it works only for very small molecules such as a single drop of blood.

"As electrical energy drives the 'parts of blood' across the glass layers, it can be read on bands which can be read with an automated machine," said Louis McGrieve of General Electric, a company that began an experiment. "They serve like a fingerprint to describe the permeability and his health condition even.

Some damage was reported in the nearby towns of Tessmanna, Rochelle and Brescia; persons were hurt, Canino, Plansan, Castro, Castro and Ladoniol.
Damage in Tuscania alone was estimated at about $4.6 million. An investigation said, 12 earthquakes had killed Tuscania, but none had ever struck it.

"You can use a drop of blood, but you couldn't use a quart of blood. You'd have it all stirred up and swirled into the separated by gravity,"
In zero-gravity, however, it may prove possible to separate the different components of blood cells and the various components of plasma, including neutrophils. The leukemia victims to eat up the excess white blood cells their parents did not.
Today platelets are extracted in a centrifuge. The process is extremely inefficient because only a small percentage of the platelets are siphoned off without getting other blood components too.

Chalmers said that it was "a slight to open something for chickens to come and eat it." He said that the Union lounge area was now functional and accessible. He welcomed replacement to the rather gloomy area it had once been.
Chalmers said that the facility would better relate the artistic efforts to students, instead of the faculty visitor to the campus museum.

The estimate is based on the chamber's calculations that Kansas taxpayers pay 1.01 per cent of all federal taxes.
