K-State's Bramlage dies after long illness
The Associated Press
JUNCTION CITY — Fred Bramlage, who spearheaded the drive to build a sports arena at Kansas State University and worked in the presidential campaigns of two Kansans, died yesterday after a long illness. He was 81.
Bramlage was admitted Monday night to Geary Community Hospital, where he died yesterday morning.
He donated $2.8 million to construction of the sports arena in Manhattan that would bear his name — Bramlage Coliseum — but liked to refer to himself as "just a grease monkey who got lucky."
Bramiage got his start in business when he bought a Junction City service station in 1928 but sold it a short time later. He eventually had numerous real estate holdings and once estimated he had owned more than 20 busi-
neeses and had interest in five or six banks.
Bramlage was an active campaigner for Republican candidates. He once served as a district leader for his party and worked extensively for the presidential campaigns of two Kansans — Alf Landon and Dwight Eisenhower.
"I don't think I've ever known a more savvy politician in the finest sense of the word who could count votes, count delegates and get the job done." Roberts said yesterday.
Rep. Pat Roberts, R-Kan., recalled Bramlage as a close friend of his father, Wes Roberts, who served as the state GOP head. The two worked together on Eisenhower's 1952 presidential campaign.
Sen. Bob Dole, R-Kan., said Bramlage was dedicated to his state. "No doubt about it, Fred was Mr. Manhattan."
Atchison residents skeptical of new Earhart findings
The Associated Press
ATCHISON — Despite an investigator's claim that he has solved the mystery of what happened to Amelia Earhart in her attempt to fly around the world, residents of her hometown remain skeptical.
"Nobody will ever really know," Ronda Goodpasture said Monday, when the executive director of the International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery said he had answered the 55-year-old question.
Louise Foudray, caretaker of the
building where Earhart was born, did not put a lot of stock in the latest revelations.
"I've heard 'news' before," Roger Reynolds said.
The director of the aircraft group, Richard Gillespie, held a news conference to announce that some of the artifacts his group found on a distant Pacific atoll, including part of a shoe and a fragment of aircraft aluminum,
proved that Earhard wound up there and probably died of thirst.
conspicuous that it was like an Elvis sighting any time something new cameup.
In 1937, Earbart and her navigator were on the finalleg of an attempt to fly around the world along the equator. They never made it, and neither their remains nor their Lockheed Electra was found.
But Foudray pointed out that there have been many theories and purported pieces of evidence over the years.
C. Marshall Warner, who knew
Earhart and her sister Muriel when they were children, said he had no doubt of what happened.
"She ran out of gas and landed in the water," said Warner, who will be 100 years old in August.
He recalled playing with the Earhart sisters as children, riding sleds and hunting for fossils along the Missouri River.
"They were typical tombboys who didn't like to play with girls," Warner said. "I never saw them once play with dolls."
