Bradley re-elected to county board
Beverly Bradley was re-elected Monday morning to chairman of the Douglas County Commission for 1984. This is the fourth time she has been elected for the job.
The election took place at a reorganizational meeting in the commissioner's office in the County building, 11th and Massachusetts Streets. State law requires that the elections take place at the beginning of every year.
Bradley, who is serving her second four-year term as county commissioner, was unanimously elected to the position by fellow members.

JUNCTION CITY — A former hairdresser accused of working with an Emporia woman to kill her husband in a murder-for-hire scheme has been bound over for arraignment.
Daniel Carter, 35, of Emporia is charged with criminal solicitation to commit first-degree murder in the Nov. 4, 1983 shooting death of Martin K. Anderson, 35, an Emporia laboratory technician. The charge was dropped from a previous charge of conspiracy to commit first-degree murder.
Prosecutors accuse her of wanting to pay to have her husband killed. Carter was her former hairdresser, investigators said.
Anderson was shot three times in a field near a Geary County highway. His wife, Lorna G. Anderson, told investigators Anderson was helping her find keys when a man approached from nowhere, shot him and disappeared into the night.
Gregory Curry, 20, of Mentor, Ohio, pleaded guilty Dec. 29 to charges that he tried to find a hit man to kill Anderson. On Tuesday, Curry testified that Carter asked him to find a hit man to kill Anderson.

Murderer to appeal 7 life sentences
TOPEKA - Nathaniel J. "Yorkie" Smith, convicted of killing three people near loa, has filed notice that he intends to appeal his conviction and seven life sentences to the Kansas Supreme Court, a court spokesman said yesterday.
A Shawnee County jury in August 1983 found Smith, 37, guilty of 16 charges related to July and August 1982 murders in Allen County.
Allen County District Judge John White sentenced him to seven consecutive terms in prison for stealing a vehicle. Same driver is eligible for parole for 105 years.
After the sentencing, White requested an investigation by the attorney general because Smith was paroled from prison in May 1982 after serving only eight years of a 12-year-to-life sentence for second-degree murder.
the killing of two Allen County teenagers and a 59-year-old woman took place within three months of his parole.
Dole requests adoption scam study
TOPEKA — Sen, Robert Dole, R.Kan, sent a letter to Treasury Secretary Donald Regan asking his office to investigate an allegedly fraudulent adoption service scheme operating out of El Paso, Texas.
Dole said in his letter that a comprehensive federal investigation and enforcement effort was warranted.
The El Paso adoption agency is under investigation by the FBI and several state agencies for taking thousands of dollars from couples to pay "fees and expenses" for arranging the adoption of infants from Mexico. In most cases, the children were never delivered and the money never returned. Dole said.
At least 14 Kansas couples have been defrauded of between $5,000 and $10,000. he said.
10,000. he said.
Dole asked Regan whether it would be appropriate to establish a task force involving the FBI, the IRS and the Immigration and Naturalization Services.
The agency is under investigation by the FBI in Texas and New Mexico, as well as law enforcement agencies in Utah, Kansas and Iowa, officials said.
ON THE RECORD
Police, who have no suspects yet, described the robber as a white male, about 25 years old, 5-feet-11, weighing about 170 pounds, with black hair. The robber was wearing a leather coat, a stocking cap and sunglasses.
The robber entered the store about 8 p.m., pulled out a revolver and ordered the clerk to give him all the money, police said. The clerk did so and the robber fled west on foot. There were no other customers in the store at the time of the robbery.
SUNGLASSES
AN ADVANTISING SIGN, worth about $300, was stolen Sunday evening from the roof of a delivery car for the Hole/in/the/Wall Delicatessen and Sandwich Shop, #46 Illinois St, police said. The delivery car was parked in the parking lot of the Hillcrest shopping center at Ninth and Iowa streets.
AN ARMED ROBBER store about $140 in cash Tuesday night from the Town & Country Market Store, 501 W. Ninth St., Lawrence police said.
A BASKETBALL GOAL post, the goal and the backboard were stolen sometime Tuesday night or yesterday morning from the Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity, 1918 Stewart Ave., police said. The equipment was worth an estimated $180.

Jet stream to funnel arctic air into Kansas
If noses, fingers and toes begin to experience that familiar feeling of frostbite and more than a slight nip is in the air, it might be the jet stream's fault.
By SHARON BODIN Staff Reporter
The National Weather Service in Topeka is forecasting lower temperatures, which could drop to the bitter lows similar to those experienced in the Midwest last month.
Early yesterday morning, increased wind speeds dropped temperatures to
THE EXTENDED FORECAST to-morrow through Sunday calls for little, if any, precipitation. It will be cold tomorrow, but temperatures will moderate Saturday and Sunday. Lows will be in the single digits tomorrow and
Today, conditions will be cloudy and cold. There is a chance of snow in the west with snow likely in central and eastern Kansas. Temperatures will be lower to mid-20s in the west and in the teens in central and eastern sections.
the teens in the east, around 30 in the northwest and in the lower 20% over the upper 20%.
Joe Eagleman, KU professor of geography, said that the recent record-breaking cold spell in December was caused by the position of the high pressure to extremely cold air to descent upon the Midwest directly from the North Pole.
warming into the teens to around 20 by Sunday. Highs will mostly be in the 20s tomorrow and rising into the mid/30s to mid-40s by Sunday.
"This jet stream pattern is very rare,
and that is why we broke so many reco-
nceives."
Since the jet stream moved back to its regular position, the extraordinarily
low temperatures have disappeared, he said.
THE PATTERN IS abnormal, but more likely to occur in January or February than in December, he said.
He said that the air in the next few days would be coming from Canada and that although the forecast called for colder conditions, temperatures were rising.
Don Farrier, a street supervisor for the city of Lawrence, said that the recent cold and heavy snowfall in the area has caused overtime for the 24 street workers.
'The Day After' attracts viewer attention abroad
By JENNY BARKER Staff Reporter
People in West Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Switzerland, Brazil, Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Argentina or Hong Kong can now watch Lawrence and Kansas City being devastated by nuclear war.
The ABC television movie "The Day After" has been sold to 35 foreign markets, and is receiving media and viewer attention comparable to what it received when it was shown in the United States, said Eddie Kalkshar, sales manager for Sales Organization, an independent film distributor in Los Angeles.
KALISH ESTIMATED THE total box receipts from overseas markets of
The movie attracted about 15 million viewers in England on Dec. 10. The movie drew about 100 million viewers in the United States, he said.
Josh Baran, coordinator for a national media campaign on behalf of peace organizations in the United States and England, said that stories about the movie appeared daily on front pages of newspapers for two weeks before the movie was shown. Baran also said the film was handled in England much the same way it was in the United States, with a panel
discussion immediately following the broadcast.
And, as in Lawrence, small groups of people gathered to watch the movie. Baran said peace organizations set up about 20,000 such waving groups.
But despite the film's popularity, Baran said, it did not serve as a rallying point for disarmament proponents as it did in the United States.
"That was mainly in Lawrence and Kansas City," he said. "Everywhere else, it was not a cause for rallying, but a cause for discussion."
"It is a new reference point for them," he said. "Now they have access to various images—the missiles being fired, the bombs going off. There's nothing new about it, but because it was on TV, in fictional form, they understood it."
842-4595
"THE DAY AFTER" will open in Holland today, and will soon be in theaters in Belgium, France, Greece, Australia, Italy, Portugal and Japan. Poland had planned on showing the movie on television in December but postponed it, Kalish said. He said it might be shown in Poland at the end of this month.

If an individual left before the end of the first year, he would have to pay the city for the full $6,000 that the city paid for each lot, said Lynn Goodell, director of community development.
Members of the East Lawrence Improvement Association and the City Community Development office have brought homesteading back from the pioneering days to keep businesses and industrial growth from creeping into an east Lawrence neighborhood.
A "homesteading program," approved by the Lawrence City Commission last month, offers four lots on the 800 block of New Jersey Street and four lots on the 700 block of New York Street to individuals who can finance their homestead and who are willing to commit themselves to living in the neighborhood for five years.

sale of nine lions on the 800 block of Pennsylvania Street. The lots had been purchased to build a loop road that would bypass downtown. The Haskell loop proposal was rejected by the Lawrence City Commission in 1974.
Those who left after the first year would have to pay $4,000. For every year after two years that the beneficiaries stayed, payment would be $1,000 less for leaving the lot.
NO MATTER WHAT YOU'RE PACKIN'—GO EASTPAK'-IN
The lots on New Jersey Street and New York Street were purchased by the city for the appraised value, Goodell said.
