NEWS BRIEFS From Area Staff and Wire Reports Add-drop period extended after bomb scare at Strong

Indian Center officials have been searching for a new site for the center since October, when a protest by neighbors successfully stopped plans to buy a house at 101 E. 23rd St. and renovate it for use as a center.
In the proposal, submitted to the City Commission by Indian Center counselor Virgil Free, the center project a cost of $60,008 for the new building. The city has made $55,000 in Community Development money available to purchase a new site for the center.

FREE SAID THE price was only an estimate and could be negotiated. The site would be on land next to Fire Station No. 2, 1941 Haskell Ave, but the exact spot has not been determined.

The Lawrence City Commission tomorrow night will consider a new site proposal for the Lawrence Indian Center, which lost a fight to relocate earlier this fall.
Indian center seeks city's aid
Members of the KU Amateur Radio Club have braved the cold and snow three times this weekend to climb to the roof of Learned Hall and attempt to make contact with the space shuttle Columbia.
So far, the club's attempts have been unsuccessful, said Dave Chlystek, club president. However, he said they would have three more chances before the shuttle's 10-day flight ended Wednesday.

Members of the club will attempt contact again at 10:30 this morning, tonight and again tomorrow night.

THE REPORT SAID that the city did not have the resources required to adequately oversee the utility. The report cited KCC's larger staff and ability to regulate on an ongoing basis with more expertise as reasons to make the switch. It also pointed to grievance and rate review procedures, customer input in rate setting and greater immunity from lawsuits.
Free requested the quick construction because the center is now located in offices at 3236 Louisiana St. that have been rented to someone else, and the center must move from the offices by Jan. 1.
The commission will consider the request at its meeting 7 p.m. tomorrow at City Hall, Sixth and Massachusetts streets.
William Salome, president of KPS, said that the company's relationship with the city was excellent.
The proposal also asks the City Commission to ignore normal bidding procedures for the construction and the design of the construction in order to speed up construction.
KPS is one of only two privately owned, one-city utilities in the state that is not regulated by the the KCC. The other utility is in Liberal.
The report said that KCC regulation of Kansas Public Service Co. was "an idea whose time has come."
The center's proposal also asks for an additional $2,000 in operating expense money from the city. Center officials had expected to be in a city-owned site by November, where the office would rent. The center's federal revenue-sharing money from the city was reduced in anticipation of the move.
The report also suggests setting citywide standards for insulation and energy efficiency, requiring an energy audit on all residences before they can be listed for sale and possibly charging large natural gas customers with the city gas franchise tax, from which they are now exempt.
IN OTHER ACTION tomorrow night, the commission will receive a report by the city's Natural Gas Task Force recommending that the company establish and manage of the local gas company over to the Kansas Corporation Commission.
He also said that charging the franchise tax to large customers could make them switch to fuel oil.
Shuttle pilot Owen Garrirott is the first man to broadcast from space on amateur radio bands, and several thousand ham radio operators from around the world have been attempting to reach him.
Chlystek, Grand Rapids, Mich. junior, said that the cold weather this weekend had limited the number of participants to about five on Saturday and Sunday.
