County treasurer vows to do best
Early on the morning of Oct. 11, the county treasurer's office will close, an audit will be made, the safe combination will be changed and, for the first time in 18 years, Douglas County will have a new treasurer.
"I'm looking forward to the job," Ruth Vervynck, treasurer-elect, said yesterday. "It's a big responsibility, but I'm going to bribe it my best."
She said she was optimistic about her job, even though coming into public office was not easy for her.
"There's been a lot of problems that made it miserable for both me and my family," she said.
In last year's election, Verryk was opposed by Betty Leslie, deputy treasurer. Leslie was strongly endorsed by the Norman, the present treasurer.
After Leslie's defeat, Norman was quoted in print as saying the treasurer should be hired on the basis of credentials and not politically elected.
"As far as I know, Edythe has never retracted that statement," Vervynck said.
And up until early in the summer, Norman would not let Vervynck into the treasurer's office to learn the job.
But the ill feelings of the campaign have been overcome, Vervynck said.
Along with Norman and Leslie, three other staff members also will be leaving Oct. 11.
"That was their own decision," Veryynck said. "Those who wanted to stay are staying."
Verynck said she wants to put the past behind her and get on with the job she was elected to do.
Tomorrow at about noon the streets and intersections near Memorial Stadium will be jammed with pedestrians and gamebound vehicles. Tomorrow is the first home football game.
Game traffic to keep police busy
Trying to install order into the midst of the chaos will take more than 90 men and women from four law enforcement agencies who will direct traffic before and after the game. Some will also patrol the annual Band Day Parade downtown before the game.
The KU Police Department, Lawrence Police Department, Douglas County Sheriff's Department and Kansas Highway Patrol serve many intersections as well as in the stadium.

KU Police Capt. Mike Hill and 29 campus police — three times the regular force of 60 — respond to crimes.
HE SAID because this game day was also and Day, all the agencies would have to do.
"Band Day is always different from the home of the games," he said. "This Saturday we'll have 10 officers go downtown early to help with the parade."
Major Darrel Stevens of the Lawrence Police Department said 30 additional officers had been assigned to traffic and game duty.
"Band Day will be a very long day for us," he said. "We'll start out at 8 a.m. preparing for the parade. After that we'll be at various intersections, then the game, back to the intersections until traffic returns to normal.
Stevens said no special instructions would be given to his officers.
"I don't expect too much out of the ordinary to happen," he said. Traffic is 90 miles per hour on Interstate 6.

Rex Johnson, Douglas County Sheriff,
said 12 to 15 of his men would begin working
at 9 a.m. for the parade and would be at
their traffic paths by 12:30.
"There are few problems at all in the stadium," he said. "But if you have 30,000 to 40,000 people all going to the same place at home, you can expect some traffic problems."

LAWRENCE POLICE will be at in-
Hill, Stevens and Johnson will coordinate
On the field, Sgt. Marion Cox of the highway patrol will coordinate and direct the 18 highway patrolmen on stadium and traffic assignment.
Cox, who will work from a patrol bus, said the highway patrol would also cover the roads and highways leading into Lawrence and Iowa streets when traffic was heaviest.

"WHY DO THE HEATHEN RAGE?"
Psalms 2:1 and Acts 4:25
Matthew 9:36-38 read5 “WHEN HE (JEUS) SAW THE MULTI-TUTIDES, HE WAS HOVED WITH COMPASSION ON THEM, BECAUSE THEY FAINTED, AND WHERE SCATTERED ABROAD AS SHEEP HAVING NO SHEPHERD, THEN SAID HE UNTO his DISCIPLES, THE HARVEST THAT HE WILL SEND FORTH LABORERS INTO HIS HARVEST.”
"THE HARVEST IS PLENTOUS BUT THE LABORERS ARE FEMIN." When Jesus said that "the woods were full" of Levites, Priests, Scribes, Doctors, Teachers, Divines, etc. but most of these divine beings are OF DARKNESS. Read what HE told them about their condition in the 23rd of Mat- thew — they were so outraged that they managed to get Him crucified The 23rd chapter of Jerusalem is somewhat like the 16th of Judas Christ. He warned the spiritual leader of their corrupt condition. Also, about 700 years before he had warned them by his servant Isaiah, chapter 58:10, 11: "HIS WATCHER BE MIND: THEY ARE ALL IGNORANT, THEY ARE ALL DUMB DOGS, THEY ARE ALL LOVELESS, THEY ARE ALL TALKING TO SLUMBER, YEA, THEY ARE GREEDLED DOGS WHICH CAN NEVER HAVE ENOUGH, AND THEY ARE SHEPHERDS that CANNOT UNDERSTAND; THEY ALL LOOK THEIR OWN WAY, EVER ONE FOR HIS GAIN, THEY ALWAYS LOOK IN THIS passage D, D. means "dumb dogs that cannot bark"
We have heard of those who can so imitate the "crow" of the crow that they deceive the crows, cause them to believe a lie and think maybe their Bishop, Cardinal or Pope is calling them to a great Convocation for Rewool? So they flock to the place of the call and are slaughtered wholesale by the guns of probation "sons of guns" if they are doing it just for sport.
However, to try to philosophese on such a tragedy, maybe the citizens of some crow city have become overmuch wicked in destroying the corn crops, and for that reason God permitted them to "believe a lie and be damned" Did you know the Bible says God will send such a judgment upon men who reject His Word of Truth and "have pleasure in unirriguable lands"? - *Znd Thesionaean 2 x11*, 12. Not one man has been allowed to return from a sold Jesus. Surrey this applied to the crow, and no doubt God causes the good crows to escape, or to be absent and fall to attend the tragic conflagration, or revive
God asks us this question: "Who makes these to differ from another, and what heat that thou did not believe? If we are true Christians hating evil, apostacy, and hypocrisy, we must show that we should not have delivered us and made us do unfriend the ungoddy, and that his blessing has been received from God "BY HIS GRACE THROUGH FAITH". This should not make us proud, rather humble, and sir up us to work, testify, and pray that the Light of Darkness might become Doctors of the Light of The World; Blind Watchmen might have sight restored, cease to be ignorant, dogs not dum but capable of barking and warning of the "fair" climbing up some other way and not being taught Jesus; and quilt sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber."
True Protestantism believes in the "Pristlethood of the Believer." If you consider yourself a "Prestly Believer," in view of the wickedness, evil, shame, crime, etc., on every occasion of your life, you are in conditions without shame and sorrow when God saves:
"BUT if THEY HAD STOOD IN THE MCAUNSEL, AND HAD CAUSED MY PEOPLE TO HEAR MY WORDS, THEN THEY SHOULD HAVE TURNED THEM FROM THE EIVIL WAY, AND FROM THE EVIL OF THE EIVIL DOINGIS" Jer. 23:22.
