KU fast food service offers varied menu
By BOB HAWLEY Staff Writer
Memorial Stadium is quiet on a non-game day. But about twenty feet inside Gate 25, three persons are busy producing the food for the Kansas Union vending service.
The three employees—Dorothy Milner, Audry Paget and Charleyoon Planchow produce about 400 to 1,000 sandwich machines in Marbury Hills and the vending machines on campus.
The kitchen where the three work is small, about 15 by 25 feet. In the center of the room, three areas are out out where each person maintains his station.
In the center of the table are meat and bread for the making of the sandwiches, the primary responsibility of the crew.
ON ONE SIDE of the table, Plaet lay ups an order for 25 rye bread sandwiches, Plianchow works on an order of Hoagy sandwiches and Milton, who makes a few sandwiches, soon will start baking cakes and brownies.
Milton said that every afternoon about 1, the crew receives a list of food needed for the next day. On a clipboard sheet are about 50 sandwich varieties, both hot and cold.
Also on the listing is a request for cookies, cakes, pies and brownies. Milner said they also make the tossed and salad cheats, boiled eggs and "whatever else is needed."
eggs and the sandwiches and other foods then are placed in metal baskets for transportation and then, Milner said, they are checked off the list.
THE LIST for that particular day indicated that the biggest selling sandwiches were the Hoagy and Aristocrat. Miltner said there were generally the biggest sellers.
The workers are intent but surprisingly
unhurtred. "Once school starts up we never have free time," Paget said.
Milner has worked in the kitchen since August 1978, and Paget has been there since January. Plianchow is filling in for a full-time worker and has been there since July.
"It's surprising how after three people have worked together for awhile everything seems to mesh together," Millner said.
Milner said that a student works from 6 to 10 a.m. every day and does much of the preliminary work before the other three arrive at 7:30 a.m.
MILTNER SAID the student softens the butter, lays out ingredients, tosses the salads and arranges the kitchen.
Forrest Jolly, director of vending, said the kitchen was both University and state approved and food was prepared ahead of time. Time-sensitive food commodities are required so they will not spoil.
Jolly said main that of the hundreds of sandwiches prepared, only 13 were in Wesco cafeteria, which showed that the menu had been served had been accurate for that day.
Jolly also said that one problem any cafeteria had was the weekend turnover. He said some sandwiches could be made on Friday and others had to be made Monday morning, depending on whether or not they would spoil.
The workers also had to have a knowledge of food and its properties, Jolly said. He said the workers must be aware of the very clean and know about food spoilage.
But perhaps Milner said it best when talking about her work and her food, "I never cook anything that I wouldn't eat myself."
Educators study biorhythm theory
The effect of biorythms on the learning ability of children is currently being studied by the department of visual arts education (VAE) at the University of Kansas.
The study, to determine whether a child's biorrhms can be used to influence successful educational planning, is being conducted by Dan Kirchhefer, teaching assistant, with the help of first and second Lawrence elementary school children.
The biorythm theory states that all human lives move in predictable cycles—a cycle of 23 days, an emotional cycle of 28 days and an intellectual cycle of 33 days.
intellectual
BIOHYTRIM CYCLES are continuous and have alternating positive and negative The positive first half of the intellectual cycle, for example, is thought to reflect a better comprehension of new materials. The negative second half is said to show an inclination to deal less with new subjects.
According to the theory of biorhythms, a person's life is a series of concurrent physical, emotional and intellectual cycles that shift from negative to positive stages. The physical cycle reportedly affects strength, mood, memory, creativity, sensitivity, mood and mental health. The intellectual cycle affects memory, alertness and the logical functions of the mind.
Kirchhefer that the cycles run concurrently from birth. One does not have a
physical cycle that stops on the 23rd day and is replaced by the first day of the emotional cycle.
Therefore, he said, it is possible to have a
nugh or low point in two or all three cycles at the same time.
The first half of each cycle is thought to be positive, tending toward more desirable
Bennett hits the road to check highways
Bv The Associated Press
By The Associated press Gov. Robert F. Bennett took truckin' down one of Kansas' most notoriously poor stretches of highway this morning.
The governor will climb into a semitrailer rig, to be driven by trucking company executive Joe Rei of Blue Mound, at Fort Scott and will ride with Rei from Fort Scott to Pittsburgh along a 30-mile stretch of U.S. 69.

That piece of highway has been cited for years in the legislature as an example of the worst roadway in the state, because of its narrow, winding course and its sometimes rundown condition.
From page 1
It has been called the state's "no, one death trap" by some southeast Kansas legislators.

while she learned to rehd and write again, she said.
Bennett was scheduled to board Reli's rig just south of the college's Academic Building, then wheel down to 68 on the truck. Only Reli and Bennett will ride in the bus.
"There are so many things that I want to do, and hopefully, in my life, I'll be able to do at least half of them. I don't want to do the same thing forever," she said.
Bennett, who was in Ulysses last night for the annual Grant County home products dinner, was scheduled to be in Fort Scott at 9 a.m. today to dedicate a new 11-county penal facility. He then will go to a student forum at Fort Scott Community Junior College and will meet with the school's faculty and officials.
The truck will stop at the Ace's Truck Stop on the northern edge of Pittsburgh, and Bennett then will go to the Pittsburgh State University Student Union by automobile.
He is to attend a student forum at Pittsburgh State at noon, and to participate in the dedication Building at the university before meeting with PSU faculty in mid-afternoon.

HE SAID THE days when the cycles switch from positive to negative, or vice versa, were called critical days and create instability, according to the theory.
Kirchhefer's research, under the direction of VAE chairman Phil Hussochoff, that began in 1962. The children are divided into two groups of approximately ages six to nine.
They are asked to paint pictures of certain things that may give clues to their feelings on that day, he said.

"Teachers would like some type of useful tool for understanding how children are responsive to education other than a good teacher," he said. "Teachers involved in an arbitrary opinion," he said.
The pictures are collected, dated and then recollected to the third biorrhythmic categories, he said.

If it were proven that biorthyms have a direct effect on the learning ability of children, Kircheherr said, teachers would know which days to present particularly difficult material, when to begin a new subject and to give examinations.
