KU purchases 5 jeeps
The University of Kansas this month bought five used mail jeeps to deliver savings, not mail.
The jeeps, which are being used by parking services and facilities operations, have replaced the need for new, more expensive vehicles.
Robert Porter, associate director of physical plant operations, said two jeeps would be used instead of many expensive full-size pickup trucks.
The facilities operations will try to buy as many of the jeeps as possible, he said.
Don Kearns, director of parking services, said three jeeps would replace three of four small Cushman vehicles that patrol parking areas.
The jeeps, which cost about $1,100 each, cost less than the three-wheeled Cushman vehicles, which cost more than $7,000 new, he said.
MAINTENANCE WILL BE less frequent and cheaper because the jeeps are more dependable and because parts are available locally.
The Cushman vehicles often broke down, and repair parts had to be ordered from the manufacturer, he said.
"It has a heater, too," he said.
Lyle Wellman, parking service officer, said the jeeps were more stable and able to climb hills better than the Cushmans.
"It has a heater, too," he said.
John Thomas, director of public safety, said the Cushmans were bought in the 1970s for about $3,200 each because they were small and maneuverable.
Three Cushmans that were replaced have been turned over to the state and will be auctioned off with other state vehicles, he said.

Expert questions source of Hitler diaries
By United Press International
HAMBURG, West Germany — A leading British expert on Adolf Hitler reversed his support of the authenticity of the Nazi leader's purported diaries yesterday, sharpening the controversy over the documents.
"I am not quite as sure as I was," said Hugh Trevor-Roper, the respected British historian who wrote "The Last Days of Hitler."
In London, the Times newspaper company said that it was ready for further investigation of the papers and hinted that its scheduled serialization in the Sunday Times next month could be delayed.
Speaking at a news conference called by the West German Der Stern magazine, a meeting which coincided with the magazine's publication of the documents, Trevor-Roper said he had been misled about the magazine's source and could no longer vouch for their authenticity.
A PASSAGE IN THE Stern excerpts purport that Hitler was angered by unauthorized, pre-World War II attacks by his stormtroopers on Jews because he feared reaction from abroad.
"There are still a lot of questions to ask."
"Have these people gone crazy? What will they say about it abroad?" Will issue the necessary orders immediately," a 1938 diary entry said after the infamous "Kristallnacht" terror campaign in which Jewish shops were plundered, synagogues burned down and Jews beaten.
According to diary entries, Hitler also said he had given orders forbidding reprisals against the civilian
The Der Stern news conference, attended by several other scholars of the Hitler era who doubt the diaries' authenticity, was disrupted when British writer David Irving tried to read a statement denouncing Stern for using the same forged documents that he had been offered and rejected.
population of Poland after the outbreak of World War II.
Trevor-Roper said his doubts were based on the inability of the magazine to prove that the 60 alleged diaries came from the aircraft that crashed with Hitler's personal files in the last days of the war.
WITNESSES SAID BLOWS were exchanged between a Vern security guard and cameraman as they pushed to get near Irving.
Heidemand said he obtained the diaries from East Germany after establishing they were on board a plane carrying Hitler's secret documents from Berlin. The plane crashed there in 1945.
Trevor-Roper said Stern reporter Gerd Heidemann refused to reveal what the doctors thought.
"The link between the airplane and the documents is not absolutely established," said Trevor-Roper. "When I got there, I was surprised. It stood that link was established."
GERHARD WEINBERG, a historian from the University of North Carolina, said he could not vouch for the authenticity of the alleged diaries until substantial samples of the handwriting had been checked by experts.
"It is also essential that scholars familiar with the period examine the transcript to see if there are any textual absurdities," said Weinberg, who examined the alleged diaries for about three hours in Zurich.
California feminist leader to face murder charges
By United Press International
LOS ANGELES — Feminist leader Ginny Foat, giving up her fight to avoid extradition, yesterday was ordered back to Louisiana to face murder charges for a 1965 iron-slayer during a hearing marked by unusual courtroom courtesies.
The Jefferson Parish Grand Jury indicted Foat, 42, last Jan. 19 in the beating death of Moises Chayo in Metairie, La., after one of her former husbands, convicted felon John Sidote, confessed to the slaying and another murder the same year. He implicated his ex-wife in both killings.
After Municipal Court Judge Michael Tynan officially turned Foat over to the custody of Jefferson Parish officials, he twice wished the California president of the National Organization for Women good luck in future court actions.
“GOOD LUCK IN Louisiana,” Tyson said at the end of the brief hearing. “Your conduct and demeanor in my interview will determine I wish to command you for them.”
Her attorney then told the judge that Foat wanted "to express to the court her heartfelt thanks for all the courteous work that the court has extended to her."
The defendant spoke only once during the hearing. She replied, "No, I do not,
your honor," when the judge asked if she had any more challenges to her
A crowd of about 20 friends and supporters applauded Foat as she was led away. She turned and bleem them a kiss. Unlike other hearings when he had spoken, Foat remained in the behavior, the judge this time smiled, looked at a bailiff and shrugged.
Defense attorney Robert Tuller said Foat, who is on paid leave from her NOW job, would fly to New Orleans for a two-week escort by escort by deferson Parish officials.
"AS SOON AS SHE ISLE in Louisiana, they will take her directly to college."
motion." Taller told reporters outside court. "There will be a bail motion and I think she'll be admitted to bail."
"The Original Needlework and Quilt Shop"
Last February, California Gov. George Deukmeijan denied her request for a special hearing and signed an extradition warrant.
Foat's battle to avoid extradition ended last Wednesday when the California Supreme Court refused to review what she said were legal flaws in documents seeking her return to Louisiana.
Tuller said Foat was confident she would be acquitted, despite supporters' fears that she would not be able to receive a fair trial in Louisiana.
