LAWRENCE'S GIANT catfish would mean big bucks for Mrs. Paul. For example, one 85-pound catfish would be worth $1,200 in crunchy, lightly battled fishballs.

Biggers, however, took a more relaxed approach to fishing. He loured on a rock
but many years ago, he had into the water with large hooks lashed to their wrists to try to snare the big catfish, also known flatheads, he said.
Harvey Hasler, manager of Lunker Bait and Tackle, 951 E. 23rd St., said the catfish were large because they were old and could find plenty of food in the Kaw to eat, such as small fish, frogs, crawdads and snakes.
"Yeah, you know when you have a big one on your line." Russell said.
And when these fish bite, they really bite.
"I didn't do it," heigg said. "I didn't want to tangle with no fish in the water. They have rough teeth like a man's winkers. He can tear a man's hide off."
"Everyone assumed that he went under the dam," Judy Higgins said. "But they were there."
"Anything that wiggles and moves, they'll eat," he said.
According to an old fisherman's tale, a man dove into the water and never came back.

Jim Russell. Lawrence resident, baits his hook in hope of catching something to fill the frying pan. He was fishing Easter day on the Kaw River dam across from the Bowersock Mills and Power Co., Sixth and New York streets. Russell never caught the big one. He had to settle for a lot of nibbles and a five-inch channel catfish, which he tossed back.

missiles targeted on western europe.
BUT THE WHITE House quickly dismissed the move as "not enough," citing a 10.1 Soviet superiority in medium-range nuclear missiles in Europe.
The deployment of 572 medium-range U.S. missiles in five European nations began in late 1983 as part of a 1979 NATO plan to counter the SS-20s. The United States said the Soviets had 414 SS-20s operational, two-thirds of them aimed at western Europe.
Tass said yesterday that U.S. officials used "stale arguments" of Soviet missile superiority to reject Gorbachev's proposal and seek to bolster the presence in other nuclear warheads. Tass also said U.S. officials failed to include British and French forces in their missile count.
