Contributors get select parking
By BARB KOENIG

For those who wonder to get the best possible parking space for a KU football or basketball game, the answer is simple. Become the next governor of Kansas.
According to John Novotny, executive director of the Williams Educational Fund, Gov. Robert B. Bennett has the best parking space for KU football and basketball games.
Others privileged enough to use a parking area west of Memorial Stadium are members of the Kansas Board of Regents, visiting guests of the University, physically handicapped persons and special contributors to the Williams Fund.
The Williams Educational Fund, begun in 1949, is made up of private contributions that are used to provide athletic scholarships. Contributors are divided into different club levels and the amount donated may be affixed other funds to recognize such as special Williams fund athletic trips, game program recognition, VIP tickets and parking.
THE CLUB LEVELS, based on the amount donated are: Jayhawk Club, $2 to
$99; Outland Club, $100 to $249; Crimson Club,
$250 to $499; Victory Club, $500 to $999;
Blue Chip Club, $1,000 to $2,499 and Directors Club,
$2,500 and more.
stadium.
"Some Veterinary Club members park on the stadium because they want to, but all parking and seating is assigned by club levels." Novotny said. "If they want some variation of it, we have to take a look at it and see what can be done."
Parking for all Williams Fund contributors is assigned by club status, Novtay said. Those belonging to the Blue Chip and Directors clubs and long-standing Victory Club members park private premises on the west side of the stadium with access the Victory, or Outland clubs have access to reserved parking on the east side of the stadium.
Novotny said the parking system was set up in 1922 for Williams Fund members. Individual spaces were assigned by club status because larger contributors should have special recognition for their donations, he said.

"FOR THE LARGER accounts, we give them better seats and better parking as a fairness in terms of assigning benefits and
privileges for belonging to the Williams Fund." Novotny said.
of the 3,200 contributors to the Williams Fund, only 1,200 can be assigned parking spaces. But, accommodating the other 2,200 may much of a problem—at least not right now.
Of the approximately 1,200 parking spaces available at Memorial Stadium, the 800 spaces on the east side are numbered for the 400 spaces on the west side. There are 400 spaces on the west side.
"We really need to expand," Novotny said. "But I'm not sure where we can go. The stadium was built in 1921 and it's pretty tough to see where it is." We don't really want other place to go.
NOVOTYN SAID the spaces on the immediate east side of the stadium used to be grass and were paved in 1969 to provide better parking. The X-zone parking lot behind the Kansas Union was built later also to accommodate game and Union parking.
For those considering try to "crash" the parking booths, Novotny has other ideas. The lots are monitored by officers from KU's Traffic and Security department and members of KU's Naval ROTC program.
"More than 1,000 of our contributors are out-of-state," Novotny said, "and a lot of them don't even have season football tickets. They just contribute because they believe in the athletic program at the University of Kansas and want to help."

The policemen and other parking attendants direct people to appropriate parking spaces and handle minor traffic accidents that may occur, Novotny said.
But if more contributors want reserved parking in the future, Novotny said, there are some new rules.

The proposal to try to block the delivery of the reactor by civil disobedience was voted on last summer by the Sunflower Alliance, Beems said.
The Sunflower Alliance is an umbrella group which coordinates the efforts of local communities.
Beems said the Sunflower Alliance, like most U.S. anti-nuclear energy groups, voted on proposals by consensus. Because some members of the alliance, including the civil disobedience group Beams, said they were necessary to create a splinter group, the Kansas Natural Guard
"THERE WILL BE a supportive demonstration about 100 feet from the Kansas Natural Guard," Beers said. "They will have signs and will be yelling things like 'Go back, we don't want you here.'"

That demonstration would be legal, he said. However, members of the Kansas Natural Guard would sit on the railroad tracks, Beems said, and anyone who participated in the Kansas Natural Guard's demonstration would have to be trained.

City water 'safe,' complaints minor
By JOHN FISCHER
Although 20 to 30 cities in Kansas failed this summer to meet national drinking water safety requirements, a chemist at the Lawrence water plant said last week that the quality of water in the city meets or exceeds the requirements.
Staff Reporter
K. T. Joseph, the water and waste treatment chemist at the water plant, said, "The water quality is excellent from a safety point of view." He said the city had not had any problems with water quality since he began working at the plant four years ago.
Jack Burris, director of the bureau of water supply in Kansas, said there were 20 to 30 cities in the state that exceeded the maximum contaminant level of coliform Environmental Protection Agency in four-week sampling periods taken since July.
These cities, however, did not include any a population of more than 10,000. Burtie
THERE WERE 50 cities in Kansas that exceeded the EPA level of nitrate in drinking water, Burris said, and 15 cities that violated the standard fluoride level.
Joseph said nitrate contamination could cause "Blue Baby Syndrome."
He said the syndrome was the result of too much nitrate in the water, which caused an excess of this chemical in the hemoglobin. That reduces the oxygen-carrying capacity of blood and makes it difficult for skin to become a blush color because of a lack of oxygen in the blood, Joseph said.
Joseph also said an excess of fluoride in the water could cause mottled enamel of teeth.
Besides chemical contamination, there are problems in Kansas that have problems with dirty water.
HOWEVER, LAWRENCE uses these chemicals only when the water is dirtier than usual, he said, such as after a heavy rain when there is muddy runoff from the

water. of these problems were due to problems in the service lines, rather than in the main water pipelines or the quality of the water, he said.

One example of the complaints, Joseph said, was the taste of chlorine in the water.
"Water teated with chemicals will have some taste, but the taste is agreeable. On a majority of the public," Joseph said. "Some super-sensitive people might be able to taste

JOSEPH ALSO said there were complaints that water from drinking fountains tasted and smelled bad. He said that was not a problem of the city's water, but rather of possible stagnant water in the drinking fountain because the fountain was not used often.
Joseph said that many people do not realize that Lawrence has good quality water, and that many of their water is contaminated with complications other than poor water quality.
"We could lower the chlorine content, but we would be taking a risk of bacteria contamination."
Another complaint by Lawrence residents, Joseph said, was that their hot water was very hot this. However, is a city that provides heaters and not with the city's water, he said.
That could be caused by mechanical vibrations because of digging near a waterpipe, or by the expansion and contraction of ice in the icecrete changes in temperature, Joseph said.
He said these filters could collect organic material, which is a food source for bacteria, if they were not changed. That could allow them to interact with the water and possibly make one sick.
Joseph said water also could look or taste bad because of faulty piping within a living complex. That is a problem of old houses in Lawrence, he said.
Lyle E. Goltz, conservation specialist in the Energy Office, said individual meters would provide incentives for apartment dwellers to conserve energy, because they

HE SAID cloudy water was caused by a coating of calcium carbonate, on the inside of the bottle.
Joseph said another complaint was the cloudiness of the water.
TOPEKA (AP)—Greater conservation of energy in apartment buildings could probably be accomplished by requiring individual utility meters and special the State Energy Office told the Kansas Corporation Commission yesterday.
Meters could save energy
could realize personal savings by reducing their consumption of electricity or natural gas.
"The widespread practice of master metering of multi-mit unit buildings acts as a disincentive to conservation efforts by apartment dwellers." Goltz said, "since the costs of utility services are pre-rated to the individual units on the basis of floor space or other criteria, rather than energy consumption."
