KU Police Perform Multitude of Duties
KU students seldom see campus policemen pass in patrol cars or walking down halls at night, but it is the job of the campus police to look out for student security 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
(Editor's Note: This is the conclusion of a three-part series on campus police.)
By Phil Magers
At least two patrolmen are cruising the streets of the campus at all times day and night. And five patrolmen check the dormitories every night of the week.
Other police duties include: checking buildings, escorting emergency vehicles, assisting in parades, locating missing persons and helping stalled motorists.
They also maintain an orderly flow of traffic through the campus and issue tickets for traffic and parking violations.
THE CAMPUS POLICE are mainly concerned with parking, traffic control, crime and accident prevention.
COMMUNICATIONS ARE also linked to the Kansas Highway Patrol, Douglas County Sheriff's Office and the Lawrence City Police.
In the office four clerks carry on registration of cars, process applications for zone parking and process both city and campus tickets.
In the police office at Hoch Auditorium communications operations are carried out with a 75-mile range two-way radio connecting all patrol cars and traffic booths.
Police reports are made out daily by patrolmen on any investigations they make during the day.
A cross-filing index is also kept of all car registrations and parking permits. These aid in identification of vehicles and drivers.
The Traffic and Security Department is also a part of the Douglas County Civil Defense body. They participate as weather observers during severe weather and some of the men are on call anytime in case of disaster.
Arab Club To Hold Drive for Algerians
KU's Arab-American club is sending Kansas warmth to Algeria for Christmas.
The club is sponsoring a clothing drive for the thousands of Algerians who were left homeless or unemployed after the civil war.

The drive is part of the nationwide Christian Rural Overseas Program (CROP). CROP is attempting to send 650,000 blankets and 30.000 tons of wheat to Algeria.
"Half of the population is unemployed due to the abandonment of the French. After French departure most of the industries closed down." Ahmed Hamdani, Arabian graduate student, said.
Students may leave clothing at the People-to-People office in the Kansas Union or at 1045 Tennessee.
hamdani contacted CROP head
quarters in Topeka to volunteer the club's help in the KU drive.
CROP reports nearly 1,360,000 Algerians without proper clothing and shelter in the Constantine and Batna area.
Blue Laws for Rugby?
SHEFIELD, England —(UPI)— Two rugby teams beat a Sunday ban on athletics yesterday by using broomsticks instead of goalposts during their "recreation."
A local official had told players, "if you do not use goalposts you can play. It is then classified as recreation and not a game."

STEYNING, England — (UPI) — John Charles Saxby, 37, could not appear in court to answer charges of fraud because he was in a trance.
No Chance to Try Man in a Trance
Porter said it appeared that the trance was genuine. The case was adjourned.
Prosecutor V. C. Porter told the court: "I am afraid this man will not be able to appear before you today. I understand he is in a self-imposed trance."
