Lawrence, Eutin plan information exchange
By Dave Wakefield
Kansan staff writer
The recent exchange of pleasantries with Eutin, West Germany, may bring more than just a warm, sister-city relationship to Lawrence.
Delegates talked last week in Lawrence and Eutin (pronounced oy-teen) about exchanging information, resources and scholars that could improve the way history is preserved in both cities.
During the one-week visit, Eutin and Lawrence representatives discussed a variety of exchange programs that could include faculty, students and librarians from the University of Kansas.
The Watson Library's main interest is the large stock of old books and manuscripts stored in Eutin's library, said Marilyn Clark, Watson research librarian. Most of the collection is not catalogued.
"Our main interest is to lend support so that they will become available to scholars and researchers from KU." she said.
Much of the collection dates to the 15th and 16th centuries and, though not as extensive, could be compared to the Spencer Research Library, she said.
"There are a couple of magazines from the 18th century that are not available anywhere in the United States." Clark said.
The libraries plan to exchange lists of their collections soon.
Eventually, money could be raised to support travel for faculty and students to do research in Eutin, she said. Librarians might travel between the cities to exchange information on the preservation of older books, many of which are distinguiscing.
Although discussions have just begun, the KU library may become a member of the "Friends of the Eutin Library" association. Memberships cost about $100 to $150. Clark said.
Eutin delegate Joachim Neum瑟, president of the Eutin Preservation Society, said he hoped Lawrence and Eutin could exchange information about preserving more than just books.
Because many of Eutin's buildings are 300 to 400 years old, preservation of buildings is one of the pressing problems in Eutin. he said.
New Soviet newspaper tries to set precedents
Eutin has no university, so the prospect of being associated with a city that has the resources pro-prospective University of Kansas is nice, Neumeyer said.
Today, a frank anti-Communist weekly called Atmoda with photographs and a color nameplate sells 165,000 copies every week. Published by the 200,000-member People's Front of Latvia, Atmola advocates restoration of independence for the tiny Baltic republic and an end to one-party rule.
"The truth is written there," said Rita Poradnika, 72, who lives up each week to buy a copy in the Latvian capital of Riga. "The Russian (official) newspapers print a completely different story."
The Associated Press
RIGA, U.S.S.R. — It used to be that unofficial Newspapers were smudgy carbon copies, hand-typed and delivered by furtive couriers.
Atmada, which means "awakening" in Latvian, is the largest of many alternative publications popping up across the Soviet Union under President Mikhail S. Gorbachev's policy of glassnost, or open
They are high-volume, public operations — a sharp contrast to the unofficial publications of the past. Underground news journals dealing with human rights issues, including the often-repressed Chronicle of Current Events, clandestinely have existed for many years. Two years ago, dissident Sergei Grorgianty's typewritten newspaper Glassnost became the first underground paper to be publicly announced, but couriers who delivered it still risked imprisonment.

Now, a four-page privately operated economics newspaper called Delim is selling 20,000 copies in the Soviet Far East. An Estonian-language joint venture with the Swedish publisher Boniwers sold out its first press run of 10,000 in early October. Even more common are filmsy newsletters such as the eight-page Byelorusskaya Tribuna. Many now are peddled at political gatherings by their formerly underground publishers.
