WSU:Grief Lingers, Study Begins
SILVER PLUME, Colo. (UPI) —The terror of one of the worst sports disasters in history was over Sunday. The grief continued, however, and an official investigation began.
Half of a 30-man investigating team climbed over 11,500 feet up Mt. Bethel in the Rocky Mountains to a skid basin where a 20-year-old Martin 404 crashed Friday, killing 29 persons, including the heart of Wichita State University's football team.
Other specialists and relatives of the dead gathered at a temporary morgue in nearby Idaho Springs, Colo., to attempt identification. Some of them were carried down the mountain Saturday.

"We will check it through every stage of flight that it made and backtrack its maintenance records way back in its operating history," Russell J. Abbott, a National Transportation Safety Board investigator said of the plane.
Witnesses to the crash said the plane appeared to be having engine trouble when it strained to clear the Continental Divide. A Silver Plum service station attendant was "backfiring real bad" prior to the impact on the timbered slopes of Mt. Bethel.
Abbott said work on the landing gear "may or may not be significant."

Several of the athletes, well enough to describe what happened, said in interviews there was no warning of trouble except for a fire that broke into the window and the sight of the trees closing in.
President's Commission
Report Splits Blame For Deaths at Kent
WASHINGTON (UPI)—President Nixon's Commission on Campus Unrest said Sunday the protesters at Kent State University must share the blame for the Ohio National Guard gunfire that killed four students and wounded nine others May 4.
The commission, ending its work with the special report on Kent State, also came down hard on the National Guard: "The indiscriminate fire of rifles into a crowd of students and the deaths that followed were unnecessary, unwarranted and unexcusable."
"The Kent State tragedy must surely mark the last time that loaded bafes are issued to guardsmen confronting student demonstrators," the report said.
But its attention focused first on the students and nonstudent protesters whose actions brought the guard to the little northern Ohio college community in the week after the United States sent troops into Cambodia.
"Those who wreaked havoc on the town of Kent, those who burned the ROTC building, those who attacked and stoned National Guardmen, and all those who urged them on the deeds share the responsibility for the damage in May 4," the commission said.
Kent State was the commission's third report. The first was a general review of campus unrest across the country, along with a long list of recommendations and a plea to Nixon to lead the way to a "national among students, police and politicians."
The second was a scathing report on the May 14 killings of two youths at Jackson State College, which it called "unreasonable, unacceptable" by local and Mississippi state police.
The commission made clear in its conclusions that whatever the cause, it could not condone student violence: "The wide-spread student opposition to the Cambodian action and their general resentment of the National Guardmen's presence on the campus cannot justify the violent and irresponsible actions of many students during the long weekend."
Reviewing the National Guard's activities at Kent, the commission was critical of both its tactics in dealing with the unruly crowds and the general strategy of sending troops on to the campus with loaded riffles. "Even if the Guardsmen faced danger, it was not a danger but called for lethal force," the report said. The 61 shots by 28 guardsmen certainly failed to disperse them or order to fire was given, and there was inadequate control fire discipline on blanket bill."
The commission said the only justification for arming law enforcement officers with loaded weapons in civil disorders was “in the case of armed resistance that trained snipers teams are unable to handle.” In the report, the commission looked into initial reports that said no evidence of gunfire nor neither the FBI nor the Ohio State Highway Patrol found conclusive evidence of snipping.

WASHINGTON (UP)—Sen. Charles E Goodell, R.N.-Y, responded Sunday to Spiro T. Agnew's criticism of him last week by accusing the vice-president of "attacking the very basis of democracy" in a manner "minisected of the McCarthy era.
Goodell, locked in a tough three-way race for re-election, urged President Nixon to put constraints on Agnew and to make it clear that he would not allow efforts to efforts to the GOP "to turn hard ruth."
Agnew, who is scheduled to speak Monday at a New York luncheon arranged partly to raise money for Conservative party candidate James L. Buckley, one of Goodell's opponents, charged last week that Godwell was "a traducible" who "has his left pay." He will be attending Buckley, but Goodell predicted Sunday that would happen in the weeks ahead.

Planning Board to Assess University Needs in 70s
By DAN EVANS
Kansan Staff Writer
In 1960 the University Planning Council created what was called a master plan that covered the physical needs of the University of Kansas for 10 years. This year mark the end of that original master plan and a new master plan for the Board, faces the task of outlining KU's future ten years. But the board has found that the best laid plans can go astray.
Francis H. Heller, vice chancellor for academic affairs and co-chairman of the planning board, said Friday that the conception of the Colleges Within-theCollege program, for example, had brought a reevaluation of the master plan.
Heller explained the original plan laid the University out in a series of concentric circles. The inner circle included Strong Hall, Hoch Auditorium and Wesco Hall. These three buildings were designed those classes that were common to almost all KU students, such as English and
The next circle held buildings which housed extracurricular activities, such as the Kansas Union, Allen Field House and Robinson Gymnasium. The next circle was not complete either, but was spread out in several directions. This circle contained research buildings and facilities such as the Center for Research in Science, the University of Kansas Research Center and the Special Education Instructional Materials Laboratory.
mathematics. The next circle out included Flint Hall, Marvin Hall, Fraser Hall and another three. The classes held in this circle would be junior-senior classes based on specific majors.
When the CWC program began in 1966, Heller said, the plan's goal of centralizing common classes was modified. The CWC program switched the emphasis to holding common classes closer to living area, areas, Heller said.
New Master Plan Considered
The program required space, and oranges were built in several dorms. The new Irene Numenheimer College will have its own building which will include classroom space. And the planning board had helped select the site on Daisy Hill for Numenheimer College.
Heller said when Wescoe Hall was finished, the first 10 year plan would be completed. Other buildings planned for in 1690 have already been completed. Fraser Hall, Haworth Hall and Robinson Gymnasium were part of the 1690 plan.
Heller said four of the 12 board members were new this year. The board spent the summer months reviewing and summarizing what has been done since 1960.
"Now we must project what kind e universal would like to be 16 years from here. He would like
He explained that the board would consider what would be happening here in 10 years and how many people would be involved in University affairs. The board then will determine the physical needs of the University.
hearing to hear requests for space from departments. The School of Law, the School of Education and the physics and chemistry departments. The board and asked for additional room.
Heller said the board probably would consider a building for the physics department first. He pointed out that the physics and chemistry departments were housed in
The remaining three board members are students who serve two year terms. Heller said the University Senate Executive Committee nominated the faculty and student members and the chancellor then appointed them.
Heller said the board served in only an advisory capacity; its decisions could be changed by the chancellor, the Board of Regents or the state legislature.
Mulot Hall, and even with the building's new addition, the departments were too crowded. Heller was reluctant to predict what other plans would be made for the next 10 years. He said that until the board had studied several changes expected at KU over the next 10 years, predictions of physical needs would be guesswork.
Among the board's 12 members, five hold administrative positions, and Helter described them as "ex-officio" members. Four board members are faculty members. Two of the faculty members serve one year terms and the other two serve for three years.
The planning board replaced the University Planning Council and the Program Development Council in the fall of 1968. The planning council was created in the late 1500's when a physical planning program was established. The development council was not created until 1966.
The administrative members of the planning board are Heller; William Bafour, vice chancellor of student affairs; Keth Lawton, vice chancellor of operations; Keth Nichter, vice chancellor of finance; and Jeremy Stokes, vice chancellor of institutional planning.
The faculty members are Morris Faiman, associate professor of pharmacy; William Lucas, associate professor of architecture and co-chairman of the board; Franklin Nelick, professor of English; and Roger E. Bauer, associate professor of political science.
The student members are Steve Emerson, topeka junior, John Spearman, Lawrence Miller.
