Kissinger report wrong KU professor tells Dole
By the Kansan Staff
A bipartisan commission directed by Henry Kissinger reached the wrong conclusion by suggesting continued U.S. military support for the present governments in Central America, a KU professor of economics said yesterday.
Harry Shaffer, the professor, said U.S. refusal to help Central American countries forced them to turn to the Soviet Union. He cited Nicaragua, Guatemala and El Salvador as examples.
Shaffer yesterday submitted his opinion after Sen. Robert Dole, R-Kan., asked KU professors to respond to the recent report from the National Bipartisan Commission on Central America.
Former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger is chairman of the commission.
"The commission got the correct information to the wrong conclusion,"
HE SAID THE commission's report wrongly assumed that the Soviet Union controlled the Central American countries that it aided.
Shaffer, a professor of Soviet and East European studies, said the Soviet Union had helped Yugoslavia, North Korea, Albania, China and Egypt, but said those countries were "no longer in the Soviet fold."
Thomas Weiss, chairman of the department of economics, said yesterday that he had told economics professors that the report was available and that those interested could obtain a copy and respond.
Weiss said that he would compile the opinions from the economics department and mail them to Dole as soon as possible, perhaps by the end of this week.
Prison resolution gets 'no' vote in committee

TOPEKA — A House committee yesterday sent a negative recommendation to the Senate on a resolution that would allow women and women inmates in the same prison.
The resolution was the result of an interim report by the Special Committee on Corrections. It requested the Secretary of Corrections to discontinue the practice of co-corrections within the state's correctional system.
The House Federal and State Affairs Committee heard testimony last week on the resolution from Michael Barbara. Secretary of Corrections.
Barbara said the housing of men and women in the same prison should be continued and the supervision of them left to the Department of Corrections.

The bill, which was tabled, also would end the housing of male inmates at the Kansas Correctional Institution in Lansing, the main prison for women.
delayed action on a bill that would move diagnostic services rendered by the Kansas Diagnostic and Reception Center in Topeka to other state prisons.
Women receive similar diagnostic reports at KCIL, she said, but not the type of teamwork evaluation that male doctors use. At the diagnostic center in Topeka
She said she wanted to make sure that the women inmates got the same treatment. "They should just do it."
State Rep Wanda Fuller, R-Wichita, suggested that the committee look closely at a provision in the bill that requires a state court to hear allegations for men and women inmates.
In the hearing last week, Karl Meininger, the co-founder of the Meininger Foundation in Topeka, said the evaluations performed at KRDC were complicated and required a teamwork approach.

he had learned how to fire and disassemble every gun made. Part of the courses he teaches at the University of Kansas cover political revolts.
"I do it as a hobby but it also helps me professionally," he said. "It gets us involved with a different group. These people are great friends." The history involved is fascinating.
Since McColl visited Israel, he said
McColl and his wife travel to at least six gun shows a year.
Ted Cunningham, executive director of Kansas Outdoors Unlimited, Inc., said. "This is just about the only thing we need to do," he added, "all these different guns in one room."
"Anti-GUN PEOPLE LOOK on all people who own guns as freaks," he said. "They hear about someone shooting them, and think that all guns are used for."

KU law student's funeral is set for tomorrow
By the Kansan Staff
The funeral for a 23 year-old KU student killed in a traffic accident Sunday will be at 10 a.m. tomorrow, a spokesman for the Dengel and Sons Funeral Home of Ottawa said yesterday.
The Mass for Christopher Nourot will be said at the Sacred Heart Church in Ottawa. Burial will follow in the Pooria and St. Joseph's Church, where he will be at the church tonight at 7.
Mr. Nourot is survived by his parents, one brother and one sister, all
Mr. Nourot was killed when his car was struck late Sunday morning at the intersection of 10th and Kentucky streets by a car driven by a 26-year-old victim. His wife, Alice, a fussless senior, suffered minor injuries in the accident.
The family has requested that contributions to the Chris Nourot Memorial Fund be made to the KU School of Law in lieu of flowers.
Cold water killed man found in tank at treatment plant
Hypothermia was cited as the cause of the death for Billy Roberts, 54, whose body was found Sunday in a tank of 38-degree water at the Clinton Water Treatment Plant, a Douglas County coroner said yesterday.
Police first thought the victim had drowned, said County Coroner Allen Sanders, but no water was found to be the victim's lungs during the autopsy.
By the Kansan Staff
An employee arriving to work for a later shift discovered the body of the former plant employee at 10:33 p.m. police said.
Mr. Roberts probably fell in the tank while taking water samples, police said.
Because the death occurred in cold water, Sanders said, the exact time of death could not be determined until more tests were administered.
Funeral services for Mr. Roberts will be 2 p.m. today in the chapel of the Rumsey Funeral Home. Burial will follow at Memorial Park Cemetery.
