Students confront cleanup challenge
By JEANINE HOWE Staff Reporter
Dirty dishes sat in the sink, newspapers and dirty clothes lay on the floor and the remains of last week's pizza clung to the carpet. The time had come to clean.
Students have four options when faced with a fifty apartment, traternity or sorority house, or residence hall room. They can
nice the mess. avoid it, clean it or have a maid to the dirty work Dominic Oldharn, St. Louis junior, is one of those students who likes to avoid the duty of cleaning. Cleaning is hopeless, he says, because his apartment gets dirty so quickly. He said that he and his roommate cleaned once a week but that the apartment became messy within four or five days.
"WE ARE COMPLETELY apathetic," he said. "Thousands of papers lie around them they engulf the furniture. Dishes pile up and it's ridiculous. We just don't put them into the dishwasher. We're too lazy."
Often, the key to cleaning is to hide the mess well. Closets make good hiding places, Oldham said.
"We don't stumble over things," he said. "We don't have a mountain peak of clothes in the doorway."
April 5,1985, Kansan Housing Supplement Page 10
But when Oldham's parents visited his apartment, he and his roommate spent about four hours cleaning so the place would look perfect.
"They were impressed," he said. "It was the biggest snow job." MEN OFTEN ARE stereotyped as being slobs. And in the past, when a group of 70 or more men lived under one roof in a fraternity house, the results were sometimes disastrous enough to be labeled "Animal House." But the fraternity houses of today have清洗 systems
John Allison, president of Phi Gamma Delta, 1540 Louisiana St. said that even though his fraternity house hired someone for the larger cleaning jobs, the basic cleaning was the responsibility of the 75 men in the house.
"Everyone helps out," Allison said. "The attitude is good. This is where we live. We don't want to live in the pig sty."
"To bend over and pick up some paper or to push a sweeper for three to four minutes isn't too much to ask. You do what you have to do."
SOME FRATERNITIES, however, assign freshmen or pieces to clean the house. Phil Johnson, president of Kappa Sigma, 1045 Emery Road, said pledges traditionally did house chores. This year, house duties are divided among 30 men_he said.
David Hoese, president of Alpha Tau Omega, 1357 Tennessee St., said his house also had the pledges or first-year members' charities.
"You hate it when you're a pledge," Hoese said. "But it pays off, because you do it for one year and then the next three you don't have to."
Jane Mitchell, president of Gamma Phi Beta, 1339 W. Campus Road, said her sorority house had hired a maid for as long as she could remember.
"OUR CORPORATION board decided the house is its responsibility to keep clean," Mitchell said. "And the girls' responsibility was to keep track of their own belongings in their room."
Some people enjoy the benefits of clean living without getting their hands grimy. Naismith Hall is sometimes referred to as the Cadillac of residence halls — not only for its swimming pool, fitness room, and good food — but also for its mood.
but also for its main service. Brad Tennant, Naismith Hall resident director, said, "Some students are spoiled. They are used to something nice and can afford it."
FOUR MAIDS VACUUM the suites, empty trash, clean the bathrooms and dust areas in the rooms that aren't cluttered with books and other belongings. But the maids don't do everything: Residents must make their own beds, pick up the rooms and do their laundry.
Cory McGinnis, Towanda freshman, said he and his roommate tried to keep their room in Oliver Hall clean. McGinnis and his roommate said they had previous roommates who were messy.
Instead of maids, University residence halls offer the do-it-yourself cleaning method.
each week. A few weeks ago, they even shampooed their carpet.
"We entertain a lot of people," he said. "We have a lot of friends. So we decided keen the room clean."
Larry Swanson, Merriam freshman and Oliver resident, said some clutter could be expected in any residence hall room because it was impossible to bring one's entire bedroom from home and make it fit into one-fourth of the space.
McGinnis said he and his new roommate dusted and vacuumed each week. A few weeks ago, they
"Our room is not sparkling clean and it's not dirty," he said.
"It's just cluttered."

Snapshots of grimming fishermen proudly posing with their hefty catches are locked up on a wall of Higgins Bait Shop. Second floor is a slab east from Lawrence Riverfront Park.
Sounds kind of fishy, doesnt it? But this isn't another tale about the big one that I found.
LAWRENCE'S GIANT catfish could mean big bucks for Mrs. Paul. For example, one 85-pound catfish would be the equivalent of 1,800 crunchy, lightly
LAST YEAR, THE biggest fish dragged into the bait shop weighed 61 pounds, said Judy Higgins, the店's owner.

Biggers, however, took a more relaxed approach to fishing. He loured on rock
"People just don't catch 'em, so they eyre," he said.
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.
"I didn't do it," Itgins said. "I didn't want to tangle with no fish in the water. They have rough teeth like a man's wiskers. They can tear a man's hide off."
"Everyone assumed that he went under the dam," Judy Higgins said, "but they
And when these fish bite, they really bite.
"Yeah, you know when you have a big one on your line," Russell said.
According to an old fisherman's tale, a man dove into the water and never came back.
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.
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.
Gerbachez said the moratorium would last until November and he urged the United States to stop simultaneous deployment of 2 and crust missiles in western Europe.
Gorbachev announced Sunday that he had accepted President Reagan's call for a summit and would unilaterally halt de-
communication with Russia. NS-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 in 2014 he issued a call for in other nuclear warheads. Tass also said U.S. officials failed to include British and French forces in their missile count.
