Day care seeks OK
By STEPHEN BLAIR Staff Reporter
Some children of KU students stay in day care homes while their parents are in school.
But many of those homes are operating in violation of city laws because they care for more than a maximum of six children, Janice Fisher, president of the Douglas County Family Day Care Association, said yesterday.
The Lawrence City Commission in its meeting tonight will consider amending local ordinances so that they will be similar to state laws and would allow the homes to keep from 10 to 12 children.
The commission meeting starts at 7 tonight
at City Hall, Sixth and
Massachusetts streets.
"None of us want to be illegal," Fisher said.
"None of us want to be illegal," Fisher said. THE DAY CARE HOMES are in compliance with state law, and until last fall, the association did not know they were in violation of local law, which takes precedence over state law, she said.
The commission must amend both the building code, which regulates the number of buildings of other utility items, and the zoning ordinance, which regulates population density in neighborhoods.
Because day care homes are private family homes, they are safe for numbers of children, p
"The average family has at least five people in it, and our homes are built for that," she said. "They're not going to be in the home 8 to 10 hours."
The children are closely supervised, and part of their time is spent in learning, she said.
"It's a profession," she said. "We function very much like a family. We don't just have a baby, we have a family."
IN ANOTHER MATTER, an attorney for five property owners will ask the commission to reject a proposed development plan for construction of apartments in the Naismith
The plan for the 26-acre area bordered by 24th and 27th streets, Ousdahl Road and the Nais姆 drainage channel allows building at multi-family density.
But Jane Eldridge, attorney for five property owners who live on Ousdaid Road, said construction of apartments would increase traffic on that road.
There is already more traffic on Gusdahl Road that the road is designed to handle, said Eldredge, who is also a Republican state senator from Lawrence.
Allen Moore, the developer for Naismith West, could not be reached for comment.
students who choose not to live in the special towers.
This year, the housing department has been taking advantage of vacancies at the Towers to offer vacation housing during semester break and long vacations and has also housed visitors to the campus, such as the Watkins-Berger and Summerfield scholarships finalists.
Towers
Wilson and Pratt said that 36 apartments rented by the athletic department for scholarship athletes would be in C and D towers next year.

Although they are a dairy farmer, an airplane plot and a banker, they are alike in at least three ways—each is Republican, each blames Gov. John Carlin for the state's economic problems and each hopes to win Carlin's job in the November gubernatorial election.
But only one will win in the GOP primary election in August, and the front-running candidate appears to be Dave Bye, a banker from Stanley who began his campaign in January
Candidates criticize Carlin

"The state budget rose from $1 billion a year in 1974 to more than $3 billion during Carlin's term," Owen said Friday at the 10th annual University of Kansas Broadcast Seminar.
Owen's campaign promise is to tone down state spending.
"I believe he has concluded that the only an-
swar in Kansas is to raise taxes, said Owen, the Lieutenant governor of Kansas from 1972 to 1978.
LOUIS KLEMP, a candidate from Easton, agreed with Owen, even borrowing one of Owen's terms—"witch hunt"—to describe what he would do to the state budget.
"Government in there to serve the people through services and must垫持 that Carlin must be benefited."
welfare of one business—agriculture. Ibetson, a dairy farmer, said the sate of farmers in Kansas had a "snowballing" effect on all other aspects of business.
When asked why Kansans should elect him as governor, Klempnitz did not owe anything to him. He simply doesn't own you.
Klemp, a pilot with Trans World Airlines, said also that his experience as a Leavenworth county commissioner had opened his eyes to the smaller issues in Kansas, such as bingo.
BUT RON IBETSEON, a candidate from Colby, said the state economy depended on the
"Most legislators have not had in-depth involvement with bingo," Kemp said, "and the legislature has been inefficient."
"Agriculture is the backbone of the state," he said. If the Legislature was sympathetic to farmers, Ibbenson predicted, "a agriculture could tomorrow turn this economy around."
Ibebona criticized those who viewed Kansas issues as divided into city and rural interests, saying the county had not been made up.
Although Owen, Klemp and Ibetsbon are the only announced GOB candidates for governor, there are other candidates.
"None of us can prosper very long without all of us prospering together," he said. "We can do everything."
AMONG THOSE expected to campaign for governor are Kansas House Speaker Wendell Lady R-Overland Park, and Sam Hardage, a law professor at the University of Kaysburg in the 1978 GOP senatorial primary.
Elderhostel offers classes, activities
Youth hostels, which have long offered an opportunity for inexpensive travel, have grown into elder hostels at colleges and universities throughout America.
For the third year, during June 29-26, the UIC provided a fee to offer an adult-hostel program for certain seniors.
Beulah Duncan, coordinator of the program, said yesterday that people 60 or older would live for the week in Gertrude Sellars Pearson Hall and would attend classes during the day.
The classes have no educational requirements and give no college credit but offer a learning experience.
During the week, the people must enroll in one class, but have the option to take all three.
The classes offered are Remote Sensing: An Overview, taught by Edward Martino, courtesy assistant professor of entomology and researcher at KU's Space Technology Center; Intergenerational Communication, taught by Bobby Patton, chairman of the speech and language department, Honorance of Things Past, taught by Timothy Mitchell, assistant professor of art history.
The classes would be scheduled during the day and would leave the evenings free for other activities.
BECAUSE HOSTELS are offered in all 50 states, Duncan said, some people spend several weeks of their summer traveling from one hostel to another.
She said some of the out-of-class activities would be a wine and cheese party, a picnic and square dancing and a performance by the Lawrence Senior Citizens Band.
She said that the scholarships would be awarded to individuals based on need.
"We designated a certain care the first day and will take care of anyone who requests it." she said.
Other Kansas schools that provide elder-hostels are Washburn University, Benedictine College, Pittsburg State University, Kansas State University, Salina College and Bethany College in Lindsborg.
The program accepts a maximum of 40 people, and 16 spaces are already filled.

When we think about a man in positive terms, it is generally with regard to his accomplishments or "good deeds." For example, Martin Luther King, FDR, or Sitting Bull. And, if you listen carefully, you can hear men expressing themselves these days with a different, healthy sense of self-esteem . . . Men are feeling good with respect to internal accomplishments . . . where it really counts. Men and women will both benefit from this new definition—personally and interpersonal. This series will explore possible ways women and men can integrate The New Maculcain into their lives.
