Hall creates sense of community Ellsworth Hall A large number of returning residents and a sense of community make Ewells Worth, Hall, 1734 Engel Road, an active, friendly place to live. John Young, resident director, said. Young has lived in the hall for three years — two as assistant resident director and one as director. He said residents called the hall home because they could go to any floor and know several people. "We have things in this hall that appeal to everyone," he said. "There's always someone to be friends with that you'll have something in common with." Ellsworth houses 600 students this year, about half of them women. The hall is divided into two wings by large lobbies, with the men in the north wing and the women in the south. Young said many black students from other countries lived in the hall. One of the hall's biggest events is the soul food dinner sponsored each week by the Black Caucus during Black History Month. Ellsworth staff has strived over the years to broaden students' horizons by bringing in speakers who discussed interracial dating, international issues and homosexuality. The hall was built in 1963 in honor of Fred Ellsworth, who retired as executive secretary of the University of Kansas Alumni Association that year. It offers all the advantages that other campuses, such as a sauna, stereo room, pool table, darkroom, and resource Center, which provides tutoring for residents. Kurtis Keith, Atchison freshman, said he chose Ellsworth because it housed men and women. He said Ellsworth had a good reputation and was one of the better halls to live in. Hashinger Hall Dana King. St. Louis freshman, said the hall was nice and the parties were fun. Last year, Shannon Stube, Leawood freshman, was looking through the residence hall directory to find a hall she could call home. Stube, a theater major, was looking for people who shared her interests. She found it or Hashington Hall. Hashinger, 1632 Engel Road, is a hall that caters to the fine arts student. It has a dance floor, pottery room, drafting room and practice rooms. Every other Friday night, a part of the lobby is turned into Sneaky Pete's, an open theater where students can perform. "I was looking for a fine arts dorm," Stube said. "Plus I liked the family atmosphere here." The hall, which houses 400 men and women, was not specifically designed for fine arts majors, but many residents express keen interest in the arts, Lisa Greenfield, resident director, said. Greensfield said the low vandalism record was another of the hall's good points. She said residents had a lot of respect for where they lived, and she rarely dealt with discipline problems. The hall is not divided by the floors where residents live, she said. A spirit of community exists throughout the hall, and it would be unusual to through the lobby and not know most people by name. Oliver Hall "The hall has always had the reputation of being a fun, active hall." Cyndra Turnes, assistant residence hall director, said recently. A large number of residents of Oliver Hall are known to develop a sense of camaraderie that leads them to return after their first year. Every fall, the 60-member board of returning Oliver residents prints a handbook for new residents and arranges the hall cafeteria into a step-by-step process to help arrive freshmen avoid confusion. About 630 students, most of them freshmen, live on Oliver's 10 floors, Turnes said. Men live on the second through sixth floors; women live on the seventh through tenth floors. Brent Medley, Coffeeville junior and president of the hall, praised the hall where he has lived for three years. "It's an inexpensive, good place to live." Medley said. "The atmosphere is on an upwings." Medley said residents had recently dug a volleyball pit west of the building. "Everybody likes to go out there and play balls and lie in ice and call it."

Snapshots of grinning fishermen proudly posing with their hefty catches are tacked on a wall of Higgins Bait Shop. Second floor, from east from Lawrence Riverfront Park. Sounds kind of fishy, doesn't it? But this isn't another tale about the big one that eats away — there's proof. LAWRENCE'S GIANT catfish could mean big bucks for Paul. For example, one 85-pound catfish would be the equivalent of 1,800 crayfish, lightly LAST YEAR, THE biggest fish dragged into the bait shop weighed 61 pounds, said Judy Higins. The店's owner. WITH PIN-POINT accuracy Russell cast with a side arm motion. His line, laden with sinkers and worms, gracefully climbed the water and plunked into the depths of the river. The lure of landing a big one drew lawrence residents in river Russell and Brooklyn. Biggers, however, took a more relaxed approach to fishing. He lounged on rock and the dam blocks their path. "People just don't catch 'em, so they grow," he said. "I didn't do it," Higgins said. "I didn't want to tangle with no fish in the water. They have rough teeth like a man's wiskers. You can tear a man's bade off." But many years ago, fishermen dove into the water with large locks lashed to their wrists to try to snare the big catfish, also known flatheads, he said. "Everyone assumed that he went under the dam," Judy Higgins said, "But they never found anything." And when these fish bite, they really bite. According to an old fisherman's tale, a man dove into the water and never came back. "Yeah, you know when you have a big one on your line." Russell 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. "Anything that wiggles and moves, they'll eat." he said. Rrice Waddill/KANSAN 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. Gorbachev said the moratorium would last until November and he urged the United States to stop simultaneous deployment of Pershing 2 and cruise missiles in western Asia. Gorcachne announced Sunday that he had accepted President Reagan's call for a summit and would uniterally halt deforestation. The SS-20 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 prevent the use of nuclear warheads. Tass also said U.S. officials failed to include British and French forces in their missile count. 4. See SOVIET, p. 5, col. 1 1.
