George C. Coggins, associate professor of law and president of the University of Oklahoma has supported the Tallgrass National Park for the last several years, said no action was being taken by Kansans to establish the park.
Coggins said he thought that a majority of Kansas citizens and legislators supported the plan, but not pushing hard enough for it.
THE LAWRENCE Sierra Club sponsored a petition recently that asked the city to present the petition, which was signed by 5,000 Kansans, to Roy A. Taylor, chairman of the law enforcement and recreation subcommittee.
The bill for the park was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives in 1970 by Kansas Congressman Larry Sanders, who tabled again this year when Congress adjourned last week.
At that time, Winn was reported to have said that the petition signatures represented only the people who support the park.
would have to start over from scratch.
The park, if established, would preserve an area in Kansas in its natural condition before man started to develop the land. Buffalo and other native animals would inhabit park and the tall grass prairie would be returned as much as possible to its natural state.
Though the exact location of the park is not known, estimates are that the park will be near the Warrensburg Railroad Hills area, south of Manhattan.
Coggins said he thought that Goggins stalked them were the only group of people to cattlemen, he said, feel that the park will take up too much
Coggins said he believed this idea was unfounded because the cause of the eruption of Kansas' grazing land. Estimates are that about 20,000 acres of 30,000 acres
The funds for building the park would come solely from the federal government under the U.S. Department of the Interior. But know whether the cost of the park had been determined yet.
A state-funded research center was built in the park and the area is gently soil grazing in the area. Coggins said the research would benefit not only the park but the local community.

according to many retail liquor
store owners and personnel in
the city.
In Lawrence and across the country, a rising popularity of wine drinking is being accompanied by rising prices.
According to the Kansas Alcoholic Beverage Control Bureau, the state had a gallon of 1966, a half gallon of Burgundy Gallo cost $1.69. In 1972, the same wine costs $2.33. A fifth of 1966 was sold at $1.47 in 1966; in 1972, $1.85.
Chuck Borgen, owner of Borgen Liquor Storewald wife who aged beyond 10 years and have begun to decline in flavor have enjoyed
NEARLY ALL of the liquor store owners and employees imply that there are fewer were increasing. Some reasons given for the popularity of wine were the desires of many people to enjoy a certain variety of the popularity of "pop" wines like Boone's Farm Apple wine Riseau Sainte-Catherine of students and professors who have traveled abroad and enjoyed the frequent use of wine at
Booe's Farm Apple and Strawberry wines sell the booer, and they were Florence McNillcik, owner of McNillcik's Retail Liquors, said the Booer of farm wines have had a great success. They are and were inexpensive. They cost about $1 per fifth. She said that she also appreciated a good bottle of wine.
McNilli's said she was sur-
surised by the amount of good
burgundy and rose wines pur-
chased by students.
"Students have a lot of knowledge about good wines because they read a lot about wine and try to new wines," she said.
said that many magazines
wrote about wine tasting and that many students who travelled to Europe
became accustomed to wine and
beer tasting.
The wine-tasting party has become very popular in Lawrence among couples between the ages of 20 and 50, who decide what kind of wine they want to try and each couple brings a different type or brand to the parties, he said. The wine-tasting party sits at the wine, and then discusses the differences of each wine.
American wine drinkers are on the east and west coasts, she said, while the Midwest is a little crass with grasp the value of good wines.
ROSS SCHIMMELS, an employee of Don McDow Retail Liquor Store, said, "Lawrence wine drinkers have more experience than other Kansas towns because of the University influence."
BORGEN SAID that Kansas had always been considered by the wine distributors as an uneducated market.
"Kansans are learning," he said.
Although many students start drinking "pop" wines, he said they develop a taste for wine and move to the finer table wines. He
He said the reason for the popularity of wines such as Cold Duck or Boone's Farm was economy
"It's not that students have less discriminatory taste," it is just that "pop" wines are less expensive than the fine table wines," he
Wine sales outnumber hard wine sales. Liz Schmield, said on game days, when more bourbon or wine was sold to well with Coke. He said that students bought wine and that older people usually bought hard wine.
SCHIMMELS SAID that
because of the problem of supply and demand and the devaluation of the dollar overseas, foreign wines were consistently increasing in price, and that even malaria wine prices were going up.
One reason for the rising price of domestic wines is the bad weather that has plagued the grape growers in California and the rest of the U.S. News & World Report article. The grape harvest is below normal this year resulting in a lower supply of wine. The article also says wine sales in the United States have dropped 60 percent over five years ago.
Borgen said that on Friday at
Saturday nights he sold six cases
of alcohol and two cases of
retailers quoted similar amounts.
He said that in Kansas no wines
could be sold by distributors
unless an equal supply was
available. He also says in Kansas.
Because of this stipulation by the ABC Board of
Kansas, wines from small
districts are unavailable in Kansas.
DARRELL MELLARD, an employee of Underwood's Retail Liquors, said that the greatest challenge among young people. He said he was very surprised to see a peek at wine for students when they did not know what kind of wine they wanted and urged them to return to give their opinions of wine.
