Free T-shirts and the chance to appear in Rolling Stone magazine were enough to lure University of Kansas students to wear milk

mustaches for photographs, but it may not increase their milk consumption.
The milk mustache campaign titled "Milk—where's your mustache?" came yesterday to the Kansas Union. The campaign representatives provided students with mustache-inducing milkshakes for photographs that will be entered in a national collegiate competition, said Carey Stuckey, campaign representative.
"We've seen a lot of funny milk mustaches," Stuckey said. "It's been a fun afternoon."
The campaign is touring about 100 colleges and universities. Photographs are taken of students posing with milk on their upper lips in a style similar to the national milk
advertisements featuring celebrities, she said. One student will be selected to appear in a milk advertisement that will run in an issue of Rolling Stone, Stuckey said.

Stuewe said young adults needed 1,000 mil-

Barker also wrote the music for the television show I Dream of Jeannie. Barker and the band will perform the song at the Spring Concert at 7:30 tonight in the Lied Center.

Movie raid invades rural farm
By Tamara Miller
Kansan staff writer
So when Hauber, a 1976 University of Kansas graduate, received a phone call from a movie production studio wanting to use her farm for a movie scene, she thought it was a prank.
However, the producers of Ride with the Devil have relied on local residents' rural expertise for their movie, said William Hendley, publicist for Maple Wood Productions in Kansas City, Mo.
Hendley said scenes were shot Friday in Leavenworth County and about 20 different locations were selected across Kansas to be used in the film.
Holywood movie producers normally do not contact Karby Hauber
"Every location is a specific scenario," he said.
Ride with the Devil will star Skeet
Uhrich and Jewel and will be released in the summer of 1999. Hendley said.
The film, based on "Woe to Live On," a book by Daniel Woodrell, is a coming-of-age story about the Kansas-Missouri border war during the Civil War.
Hauber's farm is being used to shoot a scene about Quantrill's Raid. The production company wanted to build a farmhouse on the land because it was a tall grass prairie, Hauber said.
"They have been working on this for the past three weeks solid," she said.
"The house is really just a facade supported by telephone poles. If you look at it from the front, you'd think it was real," she said.
Hauber's three children are trying out to be extras in the film. She said although she had a copy of the script, she had not watched any of the filming being done on her farm.
"It's really fun to see them focus on
an era and a time that doesn't usually get much national attention." she said.
The set is being used to film a scene where a farmhouse is burned down by a group of soldiers, called the Bushwhackers, from Missouri, said Steve Jansen, director of the Watkins Community Museum of History, 1047 Massachusetts St., and a resource for Woodrell's book.
"It was a culmination of an on-again, off-again rivalry between the Jayhawkers, who were abolitionists, and the Bushwhackers, who were pro-slavery," Jansen said.
George McCleary, associate professor of geography, collaborated in writing a brochure about the raid called "Quantrill's Raid: The Lawrence Massacre."
Ten percent of Lawrence's population died during the battle, and many widows and orphaned children left after the raid, McCleary said.
