"He is involved in running a company, and the Board of Regents is like a large company. So we have to keep moving."
CARLIN HAD SAID previously he would appoint someone from the western Kansas 1st Congressional District to replace Lowman, who resigned late last year to become the president
of the Fourth National Bank and Trust Co. in Wichita. The Regents board has two members from each of the state's four other congressional districts.
Carlin had to appoint someone outside the Democratic Party because he already has appointed the maximum of five Democrats to the board.
Born in Gorham, Brandeberry graduated from Russell High School in 1949 and from K State in 1955 with an engineering degree. He serves on the executive board of the Kansas State University Foundation and is a member of the U.S. Olympic Committee.
Brandeberry said yesterday he was happy about the appointment.

Violence in the shutdown dropped dramatically yesterday. Kentucky officials called off National Guard air patrols over the state's highways and airports in the Ohio-Pennsylvania "combat zone" reported only a few shootings and stonings.

"The violence was a disgusting, hideous outcapping which had a definite tendency to divert attention away from the problems of the independent truckers," Parkhurst said. "And I know of any trucker in the nation who isn't disgusted with the violence and acts of vandalism."
As Parkhurst spoke to reporters after his

U.S. weapons to be tested on Canadian soil
By United Press International
OTTAWA - Canada and the United States signed a controversial five-year agreement yesterday to permit testing of the U.S. cruise missile and other advanced weapons on Canadian territory
Anti-muclear groups called immediately for mass protests against the plan, which had already triggered demonstrations in most big cities. A Litton Systems plant was bombed in Toronto Oct. 14 to protect its manufacture of the guidance system for the cruise.
Under the agreement signed in Washington, the Americans could use Canada to test artillery, helicopters, surveillance equipment, advanced non-nuclear munitions, aircraft navigation systems and the cruise guidance system.
AS EXTERNAL AFFAIRS Minister Allan MacEachen introduced the agreement to the House of Commons, a spectator rose in the public gallery and called him a "traitor."
In a prepared statement, the government said the military hardware tests were "linked
intimately to Canada's security as a member of NATO and NORAD or to Canada's policy on bilateral relations.
The defense department said the agreement with the United States was in line with Canadian policy that a strong western alliance would be an alternative to Union to negotiate arms control or reductions.
In exchange for the agreement, MacEachen said, Secretary of State George Shultz has promised to keep Canada fully informed on the reductions negotiations between the United States and the Soviet Union.
THE PACT REQUIRES the U.S. Department of Defense to submit specific test proposals to the Canadian defense ministry, MacEachen said.
Each test will be negotiated and the Cabinet will make the ultimate decision on whether it will go ahead. The agreement stated no material changes to the warfare materials would be brought to Cabinet.
However, MacEachen said that future negotiations of tests and their results would be
"But we have the option where we can refuse any proposal, or suspend or cancel any test."
He said the Americans were certain to request tests of the missile, but he did not know if they would.
Any tests of the low-flying missile were expected to be conducted on a weapons range at the Canadian Forces Base in Cold Lake, Canada, similar to the topography in the Soviet Union.
THE PACT, PROPOSED by the U.S. government, was agreed to in principle by the Canadian government last year and signed by the U.S. President and the acting U.S. Secretary of State Kenneth Dum
Defense observers said that Canada's decision to sign the agreement in Washington may have resulted from mounting domestic opposition to the Cruise tests.
names Stark, president of Operation Dismantle, said that his organization would seek a court injunction to prevent the tests within a week. He said that lawyers believed they had a better than even chance of obtaining the injunction.
Reagan jobs bill draws praise from Democrats
By United Press International
WASHINGTON — The White House yesterday proposed a $4.3 billion jobs-creating bill, and Democratic leader Jim Wright called it a "wonderfully responsive" proposal likely to pass the House in some bipartisan form within two weeks.
Wright said the proposal, made to him and House Speaker Thomas O'Neill by budget director David Stockman, White House chief of staff James Baker and others, contains numerous ideas pressed by Democrats in the last month. The plan includes readings on overstater capital and other aid.
Wright said some changes are likely in the $4.3 billion bill, but a bipartisan version probably will not be adopted.
"OR TO THE HEART OF THE MONKEY,
"OBVIOUSLY I HAVE to be overjoyed," said Wright. "I think it is marvelous, a big movement in our direction."
O'Neill was somewhat more cautious but, in a statement, used some of the most optimistic language he has ever applied to anything from the Reagan White House.
O'Neill said the program "moved significantly in the same direction as the legislation passed by the House in December." He said Stockman and Baker, in a meeting yesterday, "brought me a lot of insight," which helped create jobs and relieving the human suffering caused by the current economic situation."
O'Neill and Wright said they would consult with Democrat committee chairmen and staff members on the committee.
Senate Democratic leader Robert Byrd said he was "delighted Reagan has signaled his willingness to negotiate on a jobs bill. Senate and House Democrats have been working closely to develop a major jobs program and we welcome the White House to the effort."
THE SPEAKER SAID House Democratic leaders will consider the proposals on Monday, and that Majority Whip Thomas Foley of the House Committee on Budget meeting, would report back to the White House.
Wright, however, left no doubt this was the breakthrough on fighting unemployment that the House had been hoping for.
"It is comparable to our bill." Wright said. "More than half of it is things that were in our bill." He said the White House proposal is "a 'warm up' part that there really is suffering out there."
"Maybe in a couple of weeks we could have a bill on the House floor, even before the Social
Security bill." Wright said. He mentioned the two-week target several times during an interview, saying the proposal is "something we want to pass very quickly."
REAGAN AND HIS spokesmen have said repeatedly that they were considering accelerating some public works projects already in the country, but would not consider "make-work" projects.
The measure the House passed in December called for a program of more than $5 billion for public service jobs, such as repairing veterans hospitals and public buildings. The legislation was dropped when Reagan threatened to veto any bill to which it was attached.
At the White House, spokesman Larry Speakes said Baker, Stockman and others met with O'Neill for 60 minutes yesterday afternoon and discussed the use of an advancing construction projects to create job.
He said that O'Neill and Democratic leaders "took it under advisement and our efforts to prevent abuse."
Speakers declined to reveal any details of the report drafted by the Office of Management and Budget following a survey of projects in the 1984 fiscal year budget.
REAGAN HAS INDICATED he would support accelerating the projects to begin in 1983 to ease the unemployment situation.
O'Neill, in one of the most optimistic statements he has made on negotiations with the White House on jobs, said he welcomed the "progress" represented by the Baker-Stockman team.
"When I met with President Reagan on Jan. 31, he promised that he would direct David Stockman to find areas where government spending could create more jobs," O'Neill said.
"The president has kept his promise. Today, Jim Baker and David Stockman brought me a number of immediate approaches for creating a climate of safety caused by the current economic situation.
"THESE APPROACHES moved significantly in the same direction as the legislation passed by Congress."
"I welcome this progress in meeting the country's economic emergency. I will be meeting with our committee chairmen and the Senate Democratic leadership to review the approaches discussed at the meeting today. The House Democratic Steering and Policy Committee will meet to discuss the matter on Monday."
