Development Plan Aimed at 3 Counties
By BECKY CHITESTER Kansan Staff Writer
A three-pronged program for 1970-71—encompassing Wyandotte, Franklin and Johnson counties—will guide the Community Development Center, Jon Blubaugh, director, said Monday.
The Community Development Center is a part of University extension. The programs are set-up under the Title I Act of the Higher Education Association.
Blubaugh said the purpose of the University community in these programs is to provide the instruction component to the community.
The Wyandotte County program, titled "Minority Group Business Training Program for Wyandotte County, Kan," is concerned with upgrading the skills of local minority businessmen and prospective businessmen.
Last year 56 persons participated in the program. Four KU professors from the School of Business met with the participants three hours a day, once a week.
Blubaugh said successful black businessmen talked with the group. Verne Bunn, from the small Business
Association, explained financing and La Vannes Squires, president of the Swope Parkway National Bank of Kansas City. Mo., explained banking services.
This year two instructional programs will be conducted in Wyandotte County. The first will be a training course in small business management and the second will be a course in small business accounting.
Two KU professors, Saunders and Jess H. McNish, from the School of Business, and a professor from Kansas City Junior College instruct the courses.
"The principle aim of the program this year is to develop materials—syllabis, exercises, workbooks—so we can turn these over to the black community for use in subsequent programs." Blubaugh said.
The Franklin County program, "Organization for Citizen Participation in Franklin County, Kan.," is a "general community development program."
Last year a survey was taken in the 6,367 homes in Franklin County, from which the community problems and needs were determined.
Although the major purpose of the program in Franklin
County last year was to organize, Blubaugh said, there was a human relations program to aid in relations between police and local residents.
He said the University acted in an "advisory and consultant capacity" in the Franklin County program.
This year the center plans to "move from the identification of problems to training programs aimed at elimination these problems," Blubaugh said, through a cooperative program between KU and Ottawa University.
Terry Brungardt, assistant professor of sociology at Ottawa, will be co-director of the program. The instructors will come from Ottawa.
Blubaugh said the center will conduct seminars dealing with zoning, pollution and hospital care and facilities for the county.
The funds for these programs are provided by the federal government. The budget for 1970-71 is $89,000.
The University and the community match the government funds by paying salaries and providing meeting places and offices, Blubaugh said.
Seminar Focuses on Problem Of Relocating the Urban Poor
The School of Architecture and Urban Design recently formed a panel group, Community Development Collaborative, to deal with community relocation problems.
The first of a four-part seminar was conducted Sept. 16, in Joliffe Hall. Discussion centered on the theme, "Is Community Planning Community Planning?"
Members of the panel were Cynthia Turner, Lawrence; Robert Leana, Kansas City
planner; Paul Edwards, Kansas City, Mo. lawyer; Norman Forber, professor of social work, and Uriel Owens, representative of the Kansas City Northeast community.
"Planning deals essentially with large tracts of land," Forber said. "When expansion conflicts with the poor people we're in trouble. Who will bear the burdens of dislocation?"
When a conflict like this occurs, the interests of the rich clash with
those of the poor and white interests clash with the black, Forber said.
Owens said urban renewal was needed but the work should be done by the people of the community.
"We would like to see a community set up in the old community fashion." Owens said.
Owens emphasized that the people of the community had to look out for their own interests
State Employe in N.Y. Kills Four, Shoots Self
ALBANY, N.Y. (UPI)—A state employee carried a rifle wrapped in a bright Christmas package to his office Wednesday and methodically shot to death four young secretaries before blowing his own head off.
Police said that three of the young women were slain at their desks on the fifth floor of the State Labor Department building at the state campus office complex. The fourth was killed at her desk on the fourth floor.
Police said that the killer, Joseph W. White, 25, of Albany, did not leave any notes explaining his actions. Authorities said that there were no indications that White—described as a "quiet and good-looking" bachelor who lived with his parents—had dated any of the victims.
Forber said planning of the renewal projects was a political problem.
The victims were identified as Sandra L. Peters, 24, of Amsterdam; Linda D. Willis, 21, of Waterford; and Patricia Chromik, 22, and Mary Ann Reinisch, 27, both of Albany.
White, employed by the Labor Department since July 1968, earned $11,000 a year as a senior administrative analyst. Authorities said he had been ill with colitis, a stomach ailment.
White, on sick leave for six weeks, had returned to his desk in the Division of Employment to prepare absentee records before beginning an unpaid sick leave. The absentee reports, filled out but unsigned, were found on his desk.
The fifth floor office contained about 20 desks. White's desk was at the rear of the room, where he could have unpacked the gun without having been observed.
Police said that White carried the gun, a high-powered Remington, in a box wrapped like a Christmas present and tied with a large red bow.
Witnesses said that White walked to the front of the room and shot Mrs. Peters and Miss Chromik, moved slightly to his left and walked about 10 feet into
a small room off the main office, where he shot Miss Willis.
Then, police said, White walked downstairs to the fourth floor and went into another large office, where he shot Mary Ann Reinisch.
Police said that White left the fourth floor "almost immediately" as police began scouring the building. He went down a stairway and hid in a second floor stairwell.
Police said they were closing in on him, searching the corridors, when they heard a single shot. Authorities said he put the rifle barrel in his mouth or under his chin "and blew the top of his head off."
"Suburbs are a white noose around the neck of the black inner city."
"The community is not land, nor is land necessary for its development. The issue of the community is not the sole problem of the poor. It is everyone's problem," Edwards said.
