University Daily Kansan, March 5. 1984 CAMPUS AND AREA Page 6 Child research director honored for work By MARY SEXTON Staff Reporter It's people such as Richard Schiefelbusch that "serve as an inspiration in the Legislature for it to continue working for the support of the University of Kansas," Rep. Jessie Branson, D-Dawrence, said yesterday. Shiefebusch, director of the KU Bureau of Child Research, yesterday was given a copy of an honorary degree recently adopted by the Legislature. The resolution was presented to him before more than 20 colleagues and friends in the Jayhawk Room of the Kansas Union. Branson, a longtime friend of Schiefelbusch, helped Rep. John Solbach, D-Lawrence and Sen Wint Winter, in his resolution to honor him for his work. Shiebelhoc has conducted research in the area of mental retardation for more than 30 years at the University of Utah and served as the bureau's director since 1966. In November, Schiefelbusch was awarded the 1983 National Distinguished Service Award from the Association of Retarded Citizens of the United States. He is also known internationally for his research of language disabilities in mentally retarded people. "THE RESOLUTION COMMENDS you for your numerous and extraordinary efforts and achievements in research in the field of mental retardation," Branson said. "WE ARE CONVINCED that your work is serving and will continue to serve as a basis for a demand for people and for society as a whole," Branson said. involved in his work.

"I am very much involved in a program," he said. Schiefelbusch said that his work had always been a group activity and that the progress had been slow. "We're trying to use the research to find ways to make them a part of society and to help give them the good things of life," he said. Despite the slow progress, the work has been rewarding, he said, because it has produced one of the best programs in the world. Warm Hearts has money left for utility bills By SHARON BODIN Staff Reporter The Warm Hearts program raised more money than it has used this winter, and people involved with the program are considering using any remaining money to set up a permanent office in low-income people pay their utility bills. The Warm Hearts program, which was set up in 1982 to help low-income users, was reactivated this year after the Lawrence City Commission voted not to allocate funds for a similar aid program. The program raised $70,000 last year, and used all but about $1,500 of that, said state Rep. Jess Branson, D- Lawrence and Warm Hears chairman. This year, the program raised $88,000 and has used only $17,000 to pay utility bills for low-income people, said Richard Rhoedes, treasurer of Warm Hearts. He said that the heavy period of need for the Warm Hearts money was just beginning because the city's cold weather policy was about to end for the winter. The cold-weather rule states that a utility cannot cut off a person's heat source from Nov. 15 to March 31 if the temperature falls below 32 degrees. Branson said that members of the Warm Harts committee were considering using money left from this year's fund-raising activities to set up a system where people could automatically donate money. The system would prevent the need for a yearly fundraising drive. Individuals can get aid by applying to the following social service agencies: Ballard Community Center Inc., 708 Elm St.; Penn House, 1035 Pennsylvania St.; the Salvation Army, 946 New Hampshire St.; the Lawrence Indian Center, 2226 Louisiana St.; and the Council on Aging, 745 Vermont St. These agencies determine whether an individual needs assistance and then use Warm Hearts money to pay the utility companies. Branson said that people applying for Warm Hearts aid were asked to apply to a federally-funded program, the Low Income Energy Assistance Program, or LIEAP, before applying for Warm Hearts aid. That program has spent more than $118,000 to aid low-income utility users in Douglas County so far this year. AURH election rules allow students to vote only in their own halls. To vote, residents must present a University of Kansas identification card, driver's license, or residence hall identification card. Hall residents may vote tonight and tomorrow night during their hall's evening meal for the 1984-85 AURH officers. Two coalitions, Phoenix and Insight, have filed for the election. Candidates for the Phoenix Coalition are James Jeffrey, Kansas City, Kan., junior president; Mark Ungar, Manhattan sophomore, vice president; and Troy Maas, Lenexa sophomore, treasurer. Insight Coalition candidates are Stefanie Sanders, Prairie Village sophomore, president; John Haynes, Wamego freshman, vice president; Although both coalitions running for Association of University Residence Hills offers say they want to increase participation in AURH, the coalitions propose different ways to boost interest.

Unger said that Phoenix would recommend awarding $150 to each hall that had 90 percent participation and committee meeting attendance. Phoenix wants to offer financial incentives to stimulate interest in AUHR, and insight said it would be a big step toward teaching a broader base of students. Sanders said that Insight would seek feedback from hall residents and presidents between AURH meetings to gauge support for proposed activities. More students would participate because they would be involved in what AURH did.

"We are advocating the safe use of alcohol." Unger said that Phoenix supported a meal option plan that would allow residents to save money by not buying weekend meals. The coalition would also like to offer free lunch at all public dance halls and some local bars.
