Dreary rain and fog made Lawrence dismal yesterday, but the higher temperatures and sunny skies expected today just might serve as remedies.
At Lawrence Municipal Airport, heavy fog yesterday morning slowed operations and caused several flights to be diverted to Billard Airport in Topeka, a Lawrence airport official said.
Rod Mohr, the official and an instructor at the airport, said that the planes were not in danger. He said that they were diverted because the Topeka airport had more sophisticated equipment for guiding the planes to runways.
Federal Aviation Administration officials at Kansas City International Airport reported only light fog and no serpius problems.
The Kansas Highway Patrol said the fog caused limited visibility and hindered driving safety, but reported no fog-related accidents.
Lawrence police also reported no fog-related accidents.
Yesterday, Lawrence recorded a high temperature of 40 and a low temperature of 36, according to the National Weather Service in Topeka. The weather service also reported less than one-fourth of an inch of rain.
According to the KU Weather Service, today's high temperature should be 58 with clear, sunny skies and a mild, southern wind. The unseasonably mild weather will continue tomorrow, when temperatures are expected to reach 60.
Sunday, however, light rain and temperatures in the 40s will return.
Joe Eagleman, professor of geography, attributed the changing weather to disturbances in the jet stream, which is currently flowing directly from west to east. When such a flow pattern in the jet stream occurs, he said. Slight shifts to the north or south cause sharp changes in the weather.
Yesterday such a shift occurred,
allowing rain and fog into the area.
Appeal
continued from p. 1
"THERE IS NO way the administration would admit publicly that it had made a mistake," he said.
the appeals Panel simply covered its
behind by dismantling his appeal point
by point.
Acting on an appeal filed by the Momentum Coalition, the judicial board in December recommended that the chancellor order a new election because the November election had been "implemented with inconsistencies and ambiguities."
Momentum's appeal had asked the board to declare Kevin Walker, Momentum presidential candidate, the winner of the election or to call for a new election that would include Momentum on the ballot.
On Jan. 5, the chancellor ordered a new election.
swenson's appeal objected to the board ruling on behalf of Walker because Walker had not been enrolled at the time of the appeal.
ACCORDING TO THE office of student records, Walker was not enrolled after Nov. 23.
In the report, the Appeals Panel said that it found no basis in the objection that the board had granted Walker a hearing while he allegedly was not a
"We believe, for the same reasons that we granted this appeal, that Kevin Walker had a son who either he was enrolled as a student or not," the report said.
Any party aggrieved by a decision of a hearing body shall be entitled to appeal the decision, the report said. The Elections Review Board made a
decision against Walker, and he has the right to an appeal to the judicial board.
SWENSON'S APPEAL ACCUSED the board of failing to follow correct procedures. Only four of the two students in the hearing Dec. 12, and only one of the two students of the board had been present, Swenson's appeal said.
The report said that no provision existed in the Senate Code that required all designated members of the board to be present at the hearing.
One of the student members was sick on the day of the hearing, the report said. But neither party asked that the board delayed, so the board met as scheduled.
"All persons should recognize the difficulty of assembling the diverse group of persons represented in an
appeal of this nature," the report said. "Scheduling a time which meets the needs of all the parties is a most difficult task. Last minute requests for delays are not possible under these circumstances."
SWENSON'S APPEAL also objected to the hearing because the Senate Code prohibited scheduling meetings that students' participation during finals week
The appeal said that Julie Menze, chairman of the Elections Review Board, could not attend the hearing to answer a question about because of a conflict with finals.
The report said that the Senate Code rule referred primarily to social events and that no one was required to participate in the hearing.
