"We try not to be gimmicky and try not to slant the information," Seymour said. "We try not to sell the University but present it as clearly as we can."
The informational booklet is not distributed to students in Kansas, but it may be given to students in other states.

The third largest number of new freshmen came from Illinois. Luk year, about 329 KU students.
Among Kansas high schools, more among teachers with graduates came to KU than from any other.
"Our service will be utilized by people who have savings," Falkenstein said. "It's going to enable the individual depositor to keep more money in savings than in checking and to earn more interest on deposited money."
FIRST NATIONAL Bank and Lawrence Bank and Trust Co. will automatically transfer all deposits into a savings account checking account or checking account when checks are cleared.
Lalieenii said customers at his bank could earn interest on checks that are clearin-
"You can write a check, but until that check is debited to your account you are earning interest on money you have spent," the owner is where the customer makes the money."
Watson said his bank would help students who had extra savings.
"If a student has savings dollars and is paying a high service charge for checking, he can save money by combining the two deposits," he said.
"The new account really won't affect students either way. Students still can regular accounts. Each individual is going to have to decide for himself."
Shawnee Mission South had 207 new freshmen on the Lawrence campus—about one-tenth of the freshmen who came to KU from Kansas high schools.
Last fall, KU's enrollment was boosted by more than 2,100 Kansas high school students.
THE SECOND largest number of new freshmen came from Lawrence High School. About 130 students graduated from Lawrence High and enrolled at KU, about 28 percent of a normal Lawrence High graduating class.

Grievances go to city manager
Disatisfied with previous attempts to resolve their grievances against Gene Vogt, director of utilities, two Utilities Department workers met with the city manager yesterday in a further effort to resolve their complaints.
George Blevins Vp. and Phil Biera, the two workers, met with Buford Watson, city manager, Brent McCall, management director, in separate meetings dayafter afternoon.
"As far as I can see, we didn't come to a resolution," she can say. "We tried but we didn't get it right."
Blevins said that his grievance alleging age discrimination by Vogt was not resolved at the meeting, but that Watson had seven days to make his decision.
BLEVINS SAID if he was not satisfied with Watson's resolution he probably would take the complaint to the Kansas Department of Education, but Vogt did not hire him for a job because of his
age. He said, however, he hoped he would not have to take it to the state.

Spencer Library tells their stories
Quantrill, Carrie Nation, Jesse James, Ike
Celebrities always seem so distant that it's hard to believe so many are available to anybody who asks in the Department of Special Collections. Famous books crowd the shelves there: first editions of Darwin's Origin of Species and all early editions of Cervantes' Don Quixote, a proof copy of a verse play by Yeats with corrections in his own hand; Linnanea pioneering work on classifying plants and animals; copies of Uncle Tom's Cabin as it appeared in 1852, sweeping public opinion before it; a leaf from a Gutenberg Bible; original plans of buildings designed by Frank Lloyd Wright; Captain Cook's accounts of his voyages
of discovery; and a letter from Voltaire to a friend.
But Special Collections is more than name-dropping. It's also a steadily growing research collection of less famous books, pamphlets, periodicals and manuscripts on selected subjects, gathering together the masses of evidence from which one tries to understand the past and compare it to the present.
Preserving these special books is a serious concern. Readers are asked to use them with special care; heat and humidity are carefully controlled, sometimes they even have to be fumigated for mold
and insects, and a special oil has to be carefully rubbed into the old leather bindings. Kenneth Spencer Research Library was purposely built with facilities for all this special care.
Also in the Spencer Library sharing its optimum conditions is University Archives. Although old University files and budgets sound like dull materials. Archives also has charming photos of KU's early days, films of football games, tapes of speeches, all the old, old yearbooks, and even some pieces of historic furniture.
Reserve Room
The Reserve Room is where assigned readings for courses are kept. Watson has an entire room for reserve materials; branch libraries have special sections and markings for reserve items. All of them have short checkout periods and steep fines to enforce necessary sharing without bloodshed. Many reserve areas also have old tests, and Watson Reserve has catalogs from other colleges and universities.
Library users have always needed copying services, but only in the past 29 years have fast, inexpensive copies been possible. Now people are making up for lost centuries, making thousands upon thousands of copies at the libraries' nickel self-service machines in Science, Music, Summerfield and Marvin libraries, and in Waton Library's basement, first floor Periodicals Room, and second book return area.
New copyright law forces limits on multiple copies
For more permanent copies done on higher quality paper, especially careful work, copying on both sides of a sheet or reduced-size copies, Copying Services in the basement of Watson is a handy resource. Copies cost 10 cents per exposure. Library personnel also makes change and maintains the self-service machines. After 5 p.m. and on weekends, the Microforms Dept. next door handles the change and maintenance function.
If Gutenberg had been a more forward-looking inventor, he would have given the world the xerographic copier instead of the printing press. We then would have begun xeroxing manuscripts directly instead of spending 500 years printing them.
There is a large gray area between what is clearly legal and what is illegal. It is covered by lengthy regulations concerning making multiple copies of someone else's copyrighted material when the results might be to enhance your own profit or to deny theirs.
The new copyright law has become a consideration in some instances of copying. Generally it is fine, with copyrighted material, to make a single copy of part of it for personal use. It is not fine to make any copies of currency, negotiable securities, draft cards and certain other official documents. The restricted items are listed on a sheet posted near all library copiers.
If in doubt about copyright ask library staff. Some librarians are necessarily familiar with the regulations, and in clearcut cases they can tell you whether copying would be in violation of the law. In less obvious instances, rather than smile sweet, say "Maybe," and promise to visit you when you're behind bars, they will refer you to the University attorney.
