Harder Wants State Welfare Lines Drawn
OTTAWA, (AP)—Robert C. Harder, welfare director for the state of Kansas, believes there should be a delineation of social welfare between the federal government and the states.
Harder told an Ottawa civic harder Wednesday funds should be used to provide the government and the states' duties must be in other areas.
He said now there are federal, state and county bureaucracies handling welfare and most everyone distrusts them.
He called for a "summit conference" among Congress, governors and the president to address responsibility for social welfare.
"I think we are beyond the point of all these agencies assuming responsibility for wildlife" Harder said.

Eight Seniors To Show, Sell 36 Art Works
Uiama West was financially unable to start a school this year, but he thought that a school close to the community was essential. They have rented three rooms on the main floor of the Yellow Brick
ACCORDING TO THE BYLAS, one of the activities of the group is 'the establishment, management, and operation of a restaurant eating facilities, and domiciles; not for the profit of corporation members, but as necessary for the corporation's activities."
Out of 117 entries, 36 were chosen to be exhibited. Several of the works will be offered for sale. Some are on loan and may be made through the SUA office.
The eight sisters who planned the exhibition are Bruce Hiles Lawrence; Linda Sorenson Omah, M娜; Elsa Gilliam Lawrence; Larry Fisk, Overland Sherree Sparks, Sheree Lawrences; Charles Wilichs, Madeline Victor, River Forest, Ill.
The Yellow Brick Road School is a private school for preschool to 8th grade and receives funds from Senate and from tuition fees.

A student outside the group is researching the participation in the house meetings.

"I anticipate spending five years on getting it (the corporation) into an effective and cooperative operation. Through trial and error, the corporation hopes to eventually create a more ecologically independent and ecologically sound. Cooley said.
Cooley said that eventually the Community CREDIT corporation hopes to create more experimental environmental communities.

The corporation plans to investigate the idea of smaller size communities, which would have from 10-12 persons. The several small groups would then affiliate some common things, Cooley said.
Future research projects also include an efficiently designed biocontrol system capable of space of a house, and also some type of hydroponics system. Cooley is also planning to do research on solar heating of the plant.
The Gay Liberation Front has chosen a 3-member committee to head the group. John Steven, Gay Liberation member, said Monday. He said this committee was responsible for informing the Front as to the nature of the work.

Cooley said that next semester the group will have several extra rooms for students who would compete in the research community.
"These conferences do not occur on a weekly basis, just once a month," the Gay Liberation Front will file the suit in an attempt to gain recognition."
Steven said the Gay Liberation Front's major concern was to gain recognition from the university. The university was denying a Constitutional right and interrupting academic freedom by not permitting students to educate others and therefore denying the opportunity to learn.
"For this reason, they must be stopped," Steven said.
Man Drives Car Away; Dealer Waits
Police reports say the man went to a Topeka automobile dealership, Thanksgiving, selected the car in question and said he intended to buy it. He said he wanted to drive his car to where he lived, where his wife, a nurse, had the couple's savings book. A salesman was sent along with the car.
TOPEKA (AP)—Topeka police for a look at 9,000 black and yellow 1972 sports car and the man who appeared in the movie. Wanted.
At the hospital the prospective car purchaser told the receptionist he wanted *o* visit his wife, who was on duty in the maternity ward.
The receptionist, it was reported, said only husbands could visit the maternity floor and, in the manhole, had to留在 the lobby.
So the car salesman waited, according to the police for an hour and 10 minutes. He checked the parking lot and the car was gone.
A check with the hospital, the place of employment the man had listed and the address he had received. The information formation was false, police said.
