Timetable
From page one
According to his figures, the University of Southern California has 2,000 more students than the University of Kansas, yet its timetable has 200 fewer pages.
The closest any timetable can to the size of the university was the University of Iowa's with 185 pages.
MALONEY figured that each KU Timetable cost 40 cents, so if KU could reduce its Timetable size to lowa's, at least $5,000 would be saved.
He said the timetable for the University of Missouri was 28 pages long and measured 15 x 23½ inches. He figured the total volume was 9,800 square inches, compared to KU's 23,400.
OFFICIALS at those universities said that their timetables might be small but that they didn't skimp on information.
"We include an awful lot of material," said Gloria Day, managing editor of university publications at the University of Southern California.
KU's official in charge of the Timetable agreed the Timetable could be shortened.
PATSY ELLIOTT, schedule coordinator, said,
"You can get a lot in a lot less space than what
we have now. I think it's a large document.
There're we things we can do to make it smaller."

"We're just patting WSU on the back. Heck, KU,
campus, school and we're just in it."

There are no plans to market the souvenir items in Lawrence, Gillette said.
However, it takes more than one game to create a rivalry, Wilson said, and he attributed the souvenir items to "overzealous backers."
"Obviously it means more to a person wearing one of the T-shirts than it means to us," he said. "This is more important to me."
He said the real rivals of KU were K-State and the University of Missouri.
"Our players felt no rivalry with WSU at the game last spring." Wilson said.
KU HAS NEVER marketed similar souvenir items, said Steve Word, general manager of the Kansas Union Bookstores, but he wouldn't rule out that happening in the future.
"We wouldn't have gone so far as to have a Jayhawk setting fire to a Shocker," he said, "but I can't blame them. There's a rivalry building, without a doubt."
Wilson said he was looking forward to football games with Wichita State for three years, starting in 1982. All of the games will be played in Lawrence.
"It will be beneficial to both programs," he said, "and a rival could eventually develop."
were still occurring for flights to smaller airports.

"Smaller areas rely on commuter service," she said. "We have had to do some rerouting to get our people where they want to go. But it is not a problem that we are pulling our hair out over it."
Airport
"Most of our bookings to major cities have been right on schedule and when there is a cancellation or flight number changed, we are protected everyone who has planned a trip."
ALTHOUGH SOME passengers have canceled nights because of safety fears, Barbourwalmeen said.
"We haven't had any safety problems since the strike began," he said. "If anything, the skies are safer. I talked to a pilot who flew to Las Vegas and he said the skies were almost empty, which increases the margin of safety for the pilot."
Bartholmeen said flight margins of safety—the distance between airplanes approaching airports—had been increased from five miles to nine. The controllers four times the area to track pilots in.
"As far as PATCO allegations of close calls, I don't know any pilots who would fly if they thought it was unsafe. It's the flight's captain
who has to bite the bullet in dangerous situations, not a flight controller," Bartholomew said.
BARTHOLEOME SAID the strike might prove that smaller airports like the one in Columbia, Mo., did not need full-time flight controllers.
"We are the fourth largest airport in Kansas—next to Wichita, Tokape, and Kansas City—and we don't have any problems handling an airflow of 1,000 passengers a month," he said.
He said the Lawrence airport was an "un-controlled field" and did not require a flight controller. Pilots receive travel information from the Air Traffic Control based at Kansas City International Airport.
"We used to bring in two or three controllers to help during home football games when the air traffic could be 300 planes in four hours, but last week we were able to get by without them," she said.
Bartolomew said the Topeka controllers who went on strike weren't operating under the same stressful conditions as controllers at large metropolitan airports.
'A lot of times we have to the Toppea controller and wake him up when a plane is coming.
Bartholomew said the air traffic controllers arks would not solve the problems of large city airports.
Endowment Association photographing records
The accounting department of the Kansas University Endowment Association has some catching up to do.
More than two million documents now stored in metal file cabinets and in cardboard cartons.
"We don't have room to store all the paper any more. We're running out of space." George Stewart, the Endowment Association controller, said. "I estimate that with two operators, it's going to take two years to catch up on the backlog."
The department actually has been microfilming its documents all along, using two 20Kg tape drives. Stewart's
"We've been microfilming in a limited way for 20 years, but we just keep getting further and further," she said.
The Endowment Association decision to purchase new equipment and to hire operators was made about a year ago, Stewart said. He estimated the project would cost $4,000.
Included in the files is correspondence dating to the establishment of each of the 600 to 700 funds, canceled checks, loan records and computer reports. Some of the original documents will be shredded after being put on film, however.
