University Daily Kansan, July 27, 1983 Page 5 Insure From page 1 and pull alarms, a sophisticated burglar alarm system and special fire extinguishers that will quickly put out fires. Water from a sprinkler system could ruin the collection, so the building does not have a sprinkler system, said William Mitchell, associate special collections librarian. Humphrey said that the natural history museum had regular inspections by the state fire marshal and that a special sprinkler system was being installed in special bays for special "verminal-proof" containers for specimens. The Lawrence Fire Department also considers prevention important. A pre-fire plan has been designed by the University in cooperation with the department, according to John Mullens, coordinator of public safety at KU. FIREFIGHTERS VISIT EVERY building on campus to get familiar with the basic floor plans so that in dark, smoke-filled hallways firefighters can find their way more quickly. Mullens said. Buildings, however, are not the only thing that the state does not insure. Liability insurance, except auto liability, also is not carried by the state. And, until 1979 the state could not be sued either The Tort Claims Act now allows people to sue the state for amounts more than $500, but it does not allow people to sue the state. any single occurrence, said Thomas, KU general counsel. This act also serves as a sort of insurance policy for state employees. Thomas said it protects them from liability up to $200,000. The company insured 45 percent of the long as the employee did not act irresponsibly. FOR SMAIL CLAIMS, Thomas said, people can take their case to the Joint Committee on Claims Against the State, but they must show that the state has a responsibility to pay for the Until last spring the Museum of Natural History carried liability insurance, Humphrey said, since the museum offers many educational programs that take children on field trips. Endowment funds paid for the insurance, but the museum was told that having the insurance Humphrey said that now the museum provided insurance" by taking extra precautions, such as using a bulletproof vest. "The best insurance is to not have a need for insurance," he said. Even with the extra care, accidents can happen. A child could be bitten by a snake or could fall. "WITH AN INSURANCE COMPANY, there is a definite way of making a claim and relatively certain evidence." "There's more of a question mark in my mind of how the state will respond to a claim." "We can almost meet whatever their needs are." he said. Keys work out plans for buildings that got Medeco locks From page 1 He said keys could be "cross-cut" to open several doors. a dean may have a key that opens several doors, he said, while a faculty member's key may open only one door. Porter said each department on campus was responsible for the security of its locks. Facilities Operations makes recommendations to ensure no unauthorized access nor oblitation to follow the recommendations. HE SAID THAT Facilities Operations advised departments to keep the number of copies of keys to a minimum and to require a deposit on keys they issued. "But no matter how many precautions you take," he said, "if someone wants to break in, Porter said Facilities Operations recommended that a department consider how often a key would be used when deciding whether another key was necessary. He said, however, that he was required to supply departments with as many copies of keys "We recommend they put a deposit bond on a key when they issue it out," he said. He said that Facilities Operations demanded a $100 security deposit for each key it gave to contractors for access to buildings they were working on. Porter said he thought the deposit was effective because most people would not forfeit $100. Only once was a key not returned by a driver, and they asked for the key as the was stolen from one of his trucks. Porter said that Facilities Operations kept tight control over keys it issued to its custodial, lockers and safes. He said in-house precautions were effective. "We've had very few problems," he says. "It's very easy to get the wrong data." From page 1 Llamas She said Ollie also seemed anxious when any sheen were taken from the flock.

"Some say they can be trained almost like a dog," she said. They also are relatively disease-free, and their life span is about 25 years. Radio From page 1 Hill said KANU would participate in the fund-raiser, which will take place Aug. 1-3. The campaign will consist of messages during the network's award-winning news programs, "The Network" and "All Things Considered," appealing for listener contributions to keep NPR afloat. Hill said the money raised from the campaign would be used to offset the $13,000 KANU was. Al Berman, KANU director of development, said he expected a genuine show of concern from Lawrence listeners. Hill said the whole financial crisis stemmed from NPR's overspending. "THIS IS AN EMERGENCY," Berman said, and "we think many of our listeners will appreciation." "It makes me mad that an organization could overspend that bady. Frank Mankiewicz should have been watching the bottom line closer," he said. Frank Mankiewicz resigned as president of PR in May when the deficit he estimated to be $36 million was $19 million. The CPB Board meets tomorrow to continue negotiations on the loan agreement. Hill reserves some optimism about the outcome of the meeting, but said that "PCB still expects to see good progress." "If anything goes wrong," he said, "I just want people to know who did it."
