Snowstorm passes by Kansas
From Staff and Wire Reports
Kansas escaped a wind-whipped snowstorm that dumped up to 10 inches of snow in parts of the Midwest yesterday, and unusually high temperatures are expected to warm the state throughout the week.
Temperatures are expected to be near 50 degrees today and could reach into the low 60s by midweek, the KU Weather Service said yesterday.
Low temperatures will be in the mid. 30s.
Joe Eagleman, professor of meteorology, said that the high temperatures were a result of a northern shift in the planet's orbit and the use of westerly winds to warm the area.
He said the warming trend could continue for several weeks.
In other parts of the Midwest, winter weather conditions caused hazardous
driving conditions and forced school closings.
WINDS GUSTING UP to 67 mph at Mitchell, S.D., and to 60 mph from Nebraska into Missouri, made travel difficult.
Vickie Yarborough, 23, Lincolne, Neb,
was killed when her car hit an icy patch
on U.S. Highway 77 and was struck by
another car, police said.
Six to eight inches of snow clogged highways in southern Minnesota, a country with some of the highest
in northern Illinois and Indiana, the heaviest snowfall of 1984 dropped up to
52 inches in Chicago.
travelers pulled off Interstate 90 at Sherburne, Minn., Sunday and took refuge in the city jail and community hall.
IN TERRE HAUTE, Ind., a twinengined Britt Airlines plane crashed and burned shortly after it took off yesterday Federal Aviation Administration officials are trying to determine whether rains caused the storm were a factor in the crash. Three crew members were killed.
Authorities blamed a combination of freezing rain and light snow for the deaths of at least seven people in Illinois over the weekend.
In Chicago, five inches of blowing and drifting snow slowed the morning rush hour, but skies were clear by midday.
Schools in Illinois, Indiana and Minnesota were closed, primarily because of hazardous driving conditions that left school buses idle.
The snowy blast headed east yesterday afternoon, prompting the National Weather Service to issue a winter storm watch for most of New England and the Travelers' advisory in the Mid-Atlantic Coast region and Ohio Valley.
Police pursue racing youth in local chase
Bv the Kansan Staff
Lawrence police yesterday charged a 17-year-old Lawrence youth with reckless driving and numerous traffic violations after a 16-minute, high-speed chase through Lawrence and Douglas County.
The youth's name and other details are being withheld because he is a member of the club.
The youth had a 12-gauge shotgun but did not tire any shots and did not resist
The incident began yesterday afternoon when Lawrence police responded to a domestic disturbance at the youth's home. Sgt. Ron Dallaguest said.
When officers arrived, Dalquest asked,
the youth grabbed the shotgun and fled.
Police began the chase on Sixth and Maine streets. After winding through Lawrence, the suspect crossed the Kansas River and headed north towards the Lawrence Airport. He then drove to Lawrence airport on U.S. Highway 24, Dalquesst said.
The excessive speed caused police to call off the chase when the youth was driving.
However, Kansas Highway Patrol officers continued the chase and apprehended the youth at 4:37 p.m. in the 500 block of Wisconsin Street, shortly after Lawrence police called off the chase.

IN PAST YEARS, the scheduling decisions have been obvious, the committee has recommended dates and the athletic administration and the chancellors have approved them. Foster said.
The other home game is Sept. 15 against Florida State.
But this year the committee has been unable to make a decision on the dates because of all of the conflicts, he said.
First grid-season battle pits homecoming vs. schedule
Of the remaining two game days, the Sept. 8 Wichita State game is too early in the semester to successfully schedule any of the events. Poster

Monte Johnson, KU athletic director, said that none of the five games had been ruled as dates to schedule events.
HE SAID THAThe Nov. 10 Nebraska game presented problems because Lawrence motels would already be full of fans coming to see the game, which would leave a shortage of housing for alumni and other visitors who might not usually show up. The same problem exists with the Oct. 27 Oklahoma game, he said, becauseigma Chii fraternity is having its 100th anniversary celebration that day.
The University of Kansas has not even begun its 1984 football season and it's already facing an opponent.
Foster, chairman of the committee that plans homecoming, Parents' Day and Band Day, said that the problem of a shortened schedule was further complicated by other events on the weekends of KU's home games.

"You can't have homecoming, invite the alumni back and have no place to put them when they get here." Foster said.
KU has only five home games this fall, instead of the usual six, forcing Robert Foster, director of bands, to compete against the worst schedule that he has contended with in his 13 years at KU.
Johnson said he would meet with Chancellor Gene A. Budig and representatives from the alumni association and other campus organizations to try to select dates that avoid conflict with other events.
Johnson said that he hoped the dates would be set within two weeks, depending on how soon he could be dispatchedunclear and other interested parties.
