By PATTY JOHNSON

Richelie is a 1972 graduate in sociology and psychology from the University of Pennsylvania, who returned to Lawrence last week after his evangelical trip to Europe. He now is a guide for New Testament students and a New Testament. In December he plans to return to Europe to study at the School of Evangelism in Philadelphia.
Russ Ritchie is a man with a message. Sharing that message took him to the summer Olympic Games in Munich.
Ritchel, a tall, soft-spoken man from Aurora, III, went to Europe with about 1,000 young people in 2015. He mission," an evangelistic group based in Burbank, Calif. In Europe, the group combined with 1,500 others to share their beliefs and the people of European countries.
BEFORE ARRIVING in Hurlsch, a small town outside of Munich, on Aug. 25, the group visited some countries talking with as many people as they could and attending religious festivals.
Once in Hurlach, some group members lived in an old castle near the river and were on the day. The group held several religious festivals in Munich and the people of the city were very much involved with the group, Ritchel said.
"There was a Communist demonstration in Munich one day," he said. "The police called the demonstrators were angry. But when somebody comes up and tries to love you, you can't stay mad. We talked to some of them at the demonstration broke up."
RITCHEL SAID he was able to spend some time in the Olympic village, although he devoted most of his time to people and learning from them. One day he got through the gates with his KU identification card and talked to several coaches andmates of the different countries.
Security for the village varied, he said. In the beginning it was tough but then slacked off. After the Israeli incident security was up again, and he wrestled to hold him in a crossing security barriers was more difficult for Americans than for those from other countries because of the large number of Americans in Europe
During the time of the shootings, Ritchel said, there was great confusion throughout the team. He asserted it there were actual fights in the Olympic Village and great tension among the teams.
"EVERYONE WAS SHaken up," he said. "Stories were confused. The city was in mourning, and people were
stunned. There was terrible hostility towards the Arabs living in Munich. They were scared to attack them, but their whole race was against them."
The American teams were treated very unfairly in the judging of the games, Ritchel said. He said this was especially true in the boxing matches, the fights with the Americans, and said he thought the judges from the communist countries had done a very poor job.
The purpose of the questioning is to see what student tenants in the worst and best features in the neighborhood and to determine what improvements could be made to best serve their needs. Mechs.
Free food, beer and live music will be available Monday at McGonagle said. A questionaire also will be distributed asking for suggestions for improvements in the facility.
Ritchel said he did not have much time to watch the games and he could see what he was so busy talking to others and learning from them. With what he has planned for himself, what is if the future will be the same.
"The East Germans that I talked with were very apologetic. They couldn't understand the Americans against the Americans" he said.
An information table from both the Democratic and Republican parties will be available to MGleonidge. A public address system will also be provided for the campaign.
"We think we need more light in the area, more trash pickup. We want to know if the students should wear reflective clothing should be comfortable for
students. Any comments for improvements are welcome."
McGonigle said some of the tenants and the landlords of the school were very excited for Christmas time. This year the date was changed to the beginning of the school year so that more people could attend, she said.
"The 1973 Ford is the most advanced in style and engineering," said Frank Case at John Haddock Ford. "All the cars around us are completely nearrance. It's a completely different car in all phases."
The new cars for 1973 have been introduced in the supermarket, usually accompany their appearance, and develop more technical features about the new models.
"They're just great," Irma Sassaman of Turner Chevrolet said about the new models there. "There will be one who will be driving a Chevrolet."
Case's remarks echoed those of salesmen at Karnaze American-Jee, Jim Clark Motors, Turner Motor, and Dale Willey. Dale Pontiac-Cadillac.

Perhaps the greatest change common to all American-made automobiles manufactured this year is that they use bumper. For the 1973 cars, the federal government has required that front bumpers sustain five m.p.h impacts without damage. This means you protect a car at 2% m.p.h impacts.
A get acquainted party for all students focusing on local and county candidates and the announcement area between 12th and 14th and Louisiana and Kentucky streets will be held at 5:30 onghet at 131 Ohio, according to Mrs. Bonigie, one of the speakers.
With the exception of Ford and Chrysler Corporation products, cars have shock absorbers on the rear bumpers and a large rubber cushion behind the rear bumpers. In all around the bumper, which would be compressed by the bumper resembling the rest of the body.
City Residents Plan Party for Students
McGonigle said that because this was an election year and many of the students would be voting for the first time, the university would create a forum for candidates with the neighborhood get-together.
The party, sponsored by residents of the area, will be both an informal political and neighborhood get together, easily said. All area candidates have been invited to speak.
FORD AND CHRISTY use a ring and run goad past the shock absorbers on the back of the shock absorbers. The rear bumper protection is the same as the front bumper.
Reaction by the dealers to the new bumpers was favorable, but there were some reservations about their effectiveness.
"So far there has been no change in the base prices and there can't be until, for example, that it becomes standard." CASE.
The dealers agreed that so far the cars they had purchased and experienced price changes this was attributable to government price regulations, they said. The car dealers also felt that they felt the base prices should and would increase to cover the higher costs.
"This year the pollution decrease in horsepower decrease in the six cylinder and a 13 horsepower decrease in the cylinder, the only desired estimate, offered estimates. said. "It will cause an estimation of gas mileage."
THE POWER LOSS because of the severe heat that Chevrolet made the 483-cubic inch engine standard on the Chevrolet pickup. Sassman manned it.
"Honestly, I wouldn't recommend hitting a concrete wall at five m.p.h., but the bumper is a great improvement," Case said. "It's the same way we come out with for years."
'73 Models Excite Local Dealers
He said that at the present time ie knew of no such increases however.
Compared with past years, there have been few body-style changes this year in American-made automobiles.
also featured on the new models.
A major drawback to the imple-
mentation of application
devices is a sharp depreciation
in economy and performance.
"the bumper are ridiculous," he said. "Anyone who thinks that insurance rates are going to be lowered because of these bumpers is only kidding himself. I just can't see the use of a bumper which will save you from a five mile collision with a concrete wall."
According to Dick Brauer at Karnaean American-Jeep, American Motors has improved its design but has not changed the body design.
Improved pollution devices are also featured on the new models.
said he felt that the bumps would help only slightly, and then only to serve the insurance companies.

Econ Geared to Teachers
Education majors electing to take the economic education class will have a choice of two courses: Economics I course already in existence but with a new discussion section especially for social studies education majors. Economics II course is intended for freshmen and sophomores.
The other course offered will be a "self-intructional" class open to anyone in education. Emphasis will be on the principles and how to integrate them into the elementary of secondary curriculum, Guenther
The development of both courses will be Guenther's responsibility and he plans to have graduate assistance help lead discussion sections. In the self-instruction course, students will learn about digital audio-video laboratory. Each student will work on his own rate.
GUENTHER SAID, the greatest advantage in the selfinstructional course was that the quality of the course did not depend on the quality of the instructor. Students working on coursework in particular areas of interest and concentrate on them.
The School of Education recently received a $5,000 grant from the Kansas Council of Economic Education and the Endowment Association. Mr. Grafin assists, Dean Roberts, Popeka, and Rod Oelschlager, Lawrence, plan to have the economic education program ready for next fall.
The new program will be similar to a basic economics course but will stress consumer economic principles and how they affect the individual. Teachers can incorporate this program into their lesson plans.
John Guenther, assistant professor of education, is developing a program with the economic department to help future teachers "integrate economic concepts into government courses."
THE NEED for such a teacher is more apparent. Guenther said, "Teachers will not teach economic or political matters," he said.
only difference would be in the improved bumper." he said.
Guenter said the economic education program would be devised in classes with objectives but the students will receive alternative ways to reach them.
Topics Guenter plans to include employment and unemployment, investing, consumer protection, Ralph Nader and law and the
BRAUNER SAID that American Motors added one new model this year, the Hornet Hatchback. The Hatchback is the same as the regular Hornet, but the rear window is a part of the door, and the trunk compartment is open to the passenger compartment.
Ford has redesigned all models, according to Case.
Chevrolet, Sassaman said, has changed the style of all models with the exception of the Nova. Chevrolet introduced the sleeker look the new bumpers have provided, she said. In addition, Chevrolet has introduced three new models, the Nova and the Monte Carlo Landau.
Pontiac and Chrysler Corporation have made only limited
changes this year in body design according to the dealers.
Ed Pierce at Jim Clark Motors, dealers of Chrysler, Plymouth Chrysler Corporation products appeared today, the only changes that would be evidenced be in the design of the Chrysler other Chrysler Corporation products, Dodge and Plymouth, unchanged from last year, he said.
WANTED: ATHLETES FOOT
Dr. Schwegler, director of the Student Health Service, has initiated a study to determine the effectiveness of differing treatments on athletes foot. He is studying three different treatments, medicated cream, base cream, soap and water. The study will last for six weeks, with each patient visiting a physician at the end of 2 weeks and 6 weeks. Dr. Schwegler feels that sixth persons with active cases of athletes foot are needed in order to validate any of the procedures. Any person with athletes foot who would like to participate in the study is encouraged to contact the Student Health Service at Watkins Hospital. All thirteen doctors at Watkins Hospital are participating in the study. ALL MEDICATION WILL BE PAID FOR, AND ALL SUBJECTS WHO COMPLETE THE STUDY WILL BE PAID FOR THEIR COOPERATION. If further information is desired, contact any physician at Watkins Hospital or Bruce Bove 542-3384.
THE AVERAGE OPTICIAN'S STORE IS A REAL DRAG, RIGHT?
Of course we're right. It's usually a dry, nowhere trip with very little, if any, fashion. And the guy behind the counter probably isn't much to shout about either.
The Optical Shop is not the average opinion's store. We have the largest selection of mind-buggling frames in gold-filled wire and plastic you've ever treated your head to. Frames you can touch and feel. Frames you can try on and love.
At The Optical Shop you can find sunglasses or fonglasses or have your ophthalmologist's prescription filled with flawless accuracy.
