Universitv Daily Kansan, September 15, 1983 Page 1 continued from p. 1 students get horrible headaches when they come in there." Raymond Schweger, physician and chief of staff at Watkins Hospital, said that last spring he took one student who had developed a blood disorder and exposed to toxic materials in the building. HE DESCRIBED HER disorder as one in which the patient's immune system became sick. "The prevention of such problems in the Art and Design building," Schweegler said, "would be a matter of providing an adequate ventilation system." According to the Center for Occupational Hazards in New York, continued exposure to chemicals such as methanol pneumonia, asthma, ammonia fumece, kidney damage, liver damage, anemia, skin problems. cancer and mercury, lead, cyanide or chlorine poisoning. MICHAEL OTT, who was chairman of the art department when the building opened, said that because the building's closed ventilation system circulated the same air, it also recirculated water. When the building first opened, he said, the ventilation in the printing room was so bad he had to install a metal skirting board. "I thought it was moderately dangerous for students and very hazardous for me because I was in there for 20 hours a week. I do think that room is pretty good now," Ott said. Bob Porter, associate director of physical plant maintenance for Facilities Operations, also said this summer that there had been times when the ventilation system was not working at all, either because it had broken down or had been turned off to save money. He said the air conditioning system had its third motor installed two years ago and now the motor must be disassembled because of insufficient oil pressure. He said the building should have had two separate systems installed during construction so that if one unit broke down, there was still some remaining capacity. PORTER SAID THIS week that the system was still turned off for one hour each day to conserve energy and lower the University's nearly power rate. "There was some discussion of that. No one could identify a reason," he said." Johnson said he did not think it was unusual to have mechanical design problems in a building when it first opened. But he said not why say that building and Design Building were still unresolved six years later. Mideast quickly as possible, and very quickly in the case of ammunition." He said the Lebanese were paying for the new supplies under a previous agreement designed to Western military sources said the supplies were arriving in either Egypt or Cyprus by air. The shipments were designed to insure that the Lebanese army did not run out of ammunition in the battle to stop the Syrian air attack and mount mountains east and southwest of the capital. continued from p. 1 ON TUESDAY, the Lebanese army repelled a large Druze Moslem assault on the area. Palestinian guerrilla units reportedly were along alongside the Druze in the drive to take kibbutz. In a television broadcast, Salem said, "The onging (Short) battle is a battle for destiny." He also said Beirut was willing to seek a negotiated end to the fighting with Syria, but added it was best to accept "American intervention" because there was no other option. "We know that if we work with Israel, Syria would never leave Lebanon." Salem said. "If we went along with Syrian policies and participated in an offensive against Israel — something which we are not militarily prepared for — we would fall back its forces from south Lebanon," he said. Christian Phalange radio said 84 Christians were massacred Saturday at Maaser el Shouf in the mountains southeast of Beirut. The government said it was investigating the report. Syria's reaction to the latest U.S. moves came on the official Damascus radio. It said President Reagan's decision to give the U.S. Marines authority to call in air strikes and naval bombardment was increasing tension "to a point where the consequences cannot be predicted." REAGAN DECIDED TUESDAY to authorize such strikes if the Marines, diplomats or other peace-keeping forces in Lebanon were threatened by hostile fire. The order also authorized the Lebanese army to support the Lebanese army if "action against the Lebanese armed forces endorses the Marines." There are 1,200 Marines now taking part in the 4,800-man peace-keeping mission in Lebanon made up of U.S., British, French and Italian troops. In addition, another 2,000 fresh U.S. troops arrived on warships off the coast of Beirut on Monday. Four Marines have been killed and 28 injured in the last 16 days of civil strife in Lebanon. The city has estimated that for a store with 20 feet of street frontage, the special tax would cost $138,000. opment, would finance $1.5 million of the estimated $43.6 million cost for the downtown shopping development. Survev A majority of the businessmen also said they would prefer a downtown development similar to Schema 4, which was prepared by Sizerel Realty Inc., La., the developer working with the city. continued from p. 1 Scheme 4 proposes that a shopping mall be built on the 700 and 800 blocks behind Massachusetts Street. The mail would be placed in a street corner across from the New Hampshire Street would be rerouted. Of the DLA members surveyed, 54 percent said they wanted a development similar to Scheme 4. Forty percent said they favored a development smaller than Scheme 4; 4.5 percent said they didn't know what type of scheme they favored. AUTHORIH A MAJORITY supported Scheme 4, only 36.6 percent said they thought they understood the Zielzer plan well. A majority, 38.8 percent, said they understand the plan "somewhat." Schumm said the group strongly supported Option 3, a variation of Scheme 4 that was developed after the survey was prepared. However, they thought some integration with the project was lost when a downtown plaza at the project and Massachusetts streets were added to plan. COMMENTS IN THE survey showed that some of the businessmen wanted to save the Barrand-Eagan building at 9th and Massachusetts streets, which is accomplished in option 3. Others mentioned that they were concerned about reducing costs, increasing integration with existing buildings and having a smaller project. continued from p. 1 Plane The Japanese government summoned Soviet Ambassador Vladimir Pavlov to deliver a demand for an official apology and "prompt and adequate compensation" for the 2B Japanese aboard the KAL flight, a Foreign Ministry spokesman said. The Soviet envoy refused to accept the note, the spokesman said. THE UNITED STATES, South Korea and other nations have filed similar claims against Moscow for shooting down the unarmed, there were at least 61 Americans on the flight. Reagan consulted at the White House with Transportation Secretary Elizabeth Dole to set strategy for an international aviation meeting in Washington, said the world must "stand up and be counted." The United States plans to condemn Moscow's actions and demand an international inquiry at the emergency session of the International Civil Aviation Organization. The Soviet state airline Aeroflot, meanwhile, said it was not honoring any tickets issued by the company. "Aeroflot is accepting all tickets from capitalist countries except the United States," a spokesman said. "This is because they will travel to Russia and we are forced to take appropriate measures." A spokesman at the U.S. Embassy in Moscow said that the move was "obvious retaliation" for a campaign of espionage. NEUTRAL SWITZERLAND SLAPPED a two-week ban on flights to and from Moscow. Most NATO governments have announced plans to impose restrictions for the Soviet destruction of the Korean airliner. The unexpected Swiss move came after Swissair and two other European airline companies operated to Moscow Tuesday despite a diplomatic crackdown by the International Federation of Air Pilots Associations.
