Oread Association members calm differences
By JOHN FISCHER

The Oread Neighborhood Association recently has been plagued by controversy, but members are now beginning to calm their differences.

Intersections...
Because the present intersection is temporary, he said, he thinks the opening of the second bridge will solve the problem.
Both Garcia and Hoover say they hope recent traffic signal improvements will improve the intersection at 19th and Massachusetts streets, where 13 accidents occurred.
"THERE WERE old-fashioned pole lights at 19th and Massachusetts," Garcia said. "They have been replaced with modern suspended lights."
Five other high-accedint intersections appear to have adequate traffic controls, Garcia said.
They are 23rd and Iowa streets. Ninth and Kentucky streets, 19th and Iowa streets, 23rd and Haskell streets and 12th and Tennessee streets.
meeting.
The conflicts of the association are threathening. They stem from a disputed election of new officers, the possibility of rezoning and the questionable need of a federal grant for crime prevention programs for the area.
ther resolve their problems when they gather Monday night for their monthly meeting.
On Oct. 2, association members met to elect new officers and representatives. From the election, three of the four administrative positions were filled by laminators.
The elected landlords are: Richard Lynch, 2005 Sante Fe Lane, vice president; Virginia Munger, 1601 University Drive; secretary; and Robert Eggert, 1340 Haskell, treasurer. A resident, David Holroyd, 1224 Louisiana St., was elected president.
There were about 55 landlords or landlord supporters at the meeting, and they voted as a unit. One member of the association said unanimously only about 10 landlords present at meetings.
MANY MEMBERS, primarily tenants and homeowners, accused the landlords of bloc voting so that their representatives would be elected to office, and consequently benefit by a government oriented toward the landlords.
Jim Flynn, former president, said the election was not proper because there were no bylaws established. According to a statement, the must be set before an election can be held.
After some disagreement, the newly-elected officials were accepted by the association. There have been reports, however, that Flynn might call for a new election at the meeting. Flynn is out of town and could not be reached for comment.
THE LANDLORDS and homeowners have struggled for power since the association was started 16 months ago. Now many members fear that programs and plans that have been initiated will be changed or with the change in administration.
One of these programs is a reasoning proposal being considered by the city commissioners. Oread homeowners want the city to rezone the area to control development and increasing population density.
They argue that more and more single-family housing is being converted into multi-mult-family dwellings. If this continues, they say, it could harm the character of the neighborhood and cause more problems with parking and traffic.
The landlords, however, are opposed to any type of rezoning because it would harm the quality of the property.
The city commissioners favor the homeowners' opinion on the need for rezoning because they do not want the neighborhood to become a public eyesore, marked by duplexes and deteriorated houses.
Aparently a watch-and-wait situation has developed concerning demands presented Tuesday by black students to the office of the college's response to a report in a review Monday's Kansan
Shraron Parker, president of the Black Student Union, said yesterday that her group was taking time to reflect on the impact of the protests and hoped the Nationalism staff also would reflect.
The demands were presented Tuesday when about 200 black students met for an hour and a half with three Kansan editors. The students said a review of the Natalie Cole concert Saturday night contained racist stereotypes.
ASSOCIATION MEMBERS are trying to resolve these differences. The lack of communication has been cited as the main reason for the disagreements. Both language and use in the channels of communication to explain to one another their concerns and objectives.
After making the demands, the students said if the demands were not met by yesterday, further action would be taken. That action was not specified at the meeting by the students, and Parker would not elaborate yesterday.

ideas about possible courses of action, but they were waiting to see what developed.
The Kansan published five letters to the editor yesterday that were critical of the review. Parker said she was pleased and grateful that the letters appeared together.
In addition, the group of students demanded that Melissa J. Thompson, who wrote the review, submit an apology to Evelyn Greer, Kansas City, Kan., junior, and Steven Pollard, Kansas City, Kan., graduate student.
"We don't want to be too pushy," she said,
"but we don't want to be played, either."
Thompson said she wrote personal letters yesterday to Greer and Polard in which she apologized for misunderstandings that he had in a conversation with them Monday.

IMAGINE
Stare at this picture for seven seconds and see if you can imagine in your mind the warm brown bun on the hamburger below, the succulent, juicy, red tomato; the mellow taste of the meat; the smooth texture in all around perfect hamburger being sizzled on the grill.
Time's up! Did you drol on the page? Well, then, instead of getting excited about a picture, go to Bucky's at 2120 West 9th and sink your teeth into the real thing.
