County pays thousands to junior colleges
In-state status of nontaxpayers costs residents
By Carlos Tejada Kansan staff writer.
By taking classes at Johnson County Community College last semester, Pat Flaherty, Arlington Heights, Ill., sophomore, inadvertently cost Douglas County taxpayers $360.
Flaherty said that last year, after failing Math 101 and being academically dismissed from the University of Kansas, he was not left with many options. A housing contract with his roommate and a desire to finish his education at KU limited his future possibilities.
"I had to stay in Lawrence," he said. According to University policy, academically dismissed students may be readmitted after taking a year of additional classes. Without classes, students have to wait four years before becoming eligible for readmission.
But state law forced Douglas County to pay for part of it.
Flaherty said his best option was to attend classes at JCCC.
The policy, called out-district tuition, allows community colleges to charge counties $24 per credit hour for each student enrolled from that county. The law is supposed to spread the cost of building and maintaining a community college to nearby counties.
So instead of paying $83 per credit hour, plus $6 fee as an out-of-state student at JCCC. Flaherty was charged the in-state $33 per hour because he listed Lawrence as his permanent address. And Douglas County was billed $300, or $24 for each of his 15 credit hours.
Many Douglas County officials said the law hurts Douglas County because students such as Flaherty, whom KU considers an out-of-state student, declare the county their home without paying taxes or living there permanently.
Flaherty said the charge to the county was unimportant to him.
"I don't really care how they feel," he said. "I just had to go back to KU."
tuition charged to Douglas County comes from JCCC, said Craig Weinaug, county supervisor.
Doniphan $6,864
Thomas $1,128
Cloud $3,800
Shawnee $28,416
Wyandotte $25,200

The largest chunk of out-district
Rounded figures showed that in 1900, out-district tuition from JCCC accounted for $218,000 of the total $315,000 out-district tuition bill. That charged Douglas County included Washburn University, Neosho County Community College and Kansas City Kansas Community College.
In this year's figures, JCCC's share of the $484,000 out-district tuition bill to Douglas County was $333,000. In three years, the bill from JCCC has increased by 53 percent.
Douglas Dues Douglas County taxpayers give money to 19 other counties for their community colleges. Johnson County receives more than 67 percent of all money distributed
Weinaug said the increase came from KU students who take classes at JCCC. The students place their Lawrence address on their application as their permanent address, though they still may be legally dependent on their parents or residents of another county or state.
"We feel we get hit with a disproportionate bill for out-district tuition," he said.
"Everybody who signs up who lists Lawrence as their address is billed to us." Weinaug said.
These students, he said, create the impression that a lot of Douglas County residents take classes at JCCC.
John Paul Fogel / KANSAN
On the other hand, the same students who are considered Douglas County residents by JCCC are not considered county residents by the
U. S. Census, Weinaug said. While they cost the county in out-district tuition charges, they do not count when federal and state funds are allocated.
"We subsidize their tuition at the
community college, with highway funds we can't count them," he said.

Arabs misrepresented as terrorists by media
By Muneera Naseer
Kansan staff writer
President Clinton's decision to bomb an Iraqi intelligence center on June 26 carries the support of some KU students but has brought condemnation from some Arabs living in the United States.
Kelvin Whisenhunt, Lawrence senior, said he supported what he called a successful bombing mission. The bombing was in retaliation to the Iraqi government's alleged plot to assassinate former President Bush during his visit to Kuwait in April.
("The bombing) was a great idea," he said. "If we don't show other people how we feel about things they will try to run over us."
No Parking
Kathy Hornbrook, Lawrence senior,
said she was upset about the attack
because she did not expect it to happen.
She feared that the bombing
could be viewed as a terrorist attack
by Arab countries.
"I would like to think that our attack was an act of defense, as opposed to terrorism," she said.
Abert Mokhuber, president of the Washington, D.C.-based American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, the largest Arab-American organization in the U.S., said the specification of Arabs and Islam in certain media reports had made Arab-Americans fearful of harassment in
the United States.
"There is a fear and it is valid, based on history," he said. "There was a 300 percent increase in hate crimes against Arab citizens during the Gulf War." His organization has received hate mail since the World Trade Center bombing on Feb. 26.
"We read 'Muslims arrested in New York,' but not Jews or Christians. And we shouldn't," he said.
He said people in the United States should not think that Arabs abroad and in the United States support acts such as the Trade Center bombing.
"We absolutely and unequivocally condemn all forms of violence and terrorism," he said. "But we also believe in innocence until proven guilty."
Naser Alazayed, Saudi Arabia graduate student and president of the Muslim Student Association, said he had not experienced any threats or harassment in Lawrence. But he still hopes Americans will become more aware of bias against Arabs in the U.S. media, as well as the sufferings of Arabs in their own countries.
Tim Graham, associate editor for Media Watch, a publication of the Media Research Center in Alexandria, Va., said that although his center had not done much research on Middle East issues, he did not observe any effort by the media to denigrate Arabs in general.

Baltic journalists visit KU
Journalists discuss media differences between the U.S. and the Baltic states
Bv Susan White
Special to the Kansan
Prit Hobemagi, an editor from an Estonian newspaper, turned on the television in his hotel room and saw a familiar sight.
"I came all the way from the other side of the world to experience American media and turned on the television to "The Cosby Show." a show I have seen at home," he said.
The United States Information Agency brought the journalists to the United States so they could learn more about how various American newspapers function.
Hobemag, one of eight journalists from the Baltic states of Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia visiting the University of Kansas, illustrated how the media in the United States and the Baltic states are not that far apart.
The journalists spent yesterday at KU talking to journalism students and faculty about the Baltic states' newspapers and the changes that have taken place since they gained independence from the former Soviet Union in 1991.
The Baltic states' newspapers have reconstructed their formats to keep with the times and to deal with their freedom.
Hobemagi said the newspapers were starting to gain a whole new generation of writers. The old writers, along with the old ways, are disappearing.
"One-third of the hard-core Communist journalists quit
the field altogether and are now in new lines of business," Hobemagi said.
In addition to losing Communist journalists, newspapers that had names with either a Communist theme or with the words "The Soviet Union" in them were changed in order to more accurately represent the free states.
Hobemagi also said that the government had lost much of its control over the newspapers, making life a lot different than the past.
Ruta Kanopkaite, an editor from a Lithuanian newspaper, said some of the changes have created negative results
"Some journalists of Baltic newspapers mix too many of their own opinions with the news," Kanopkaite said.
The United States and the Baltic states differ somewhat in the content of their newspapers.
Arimus Drizius, a reporter from Lithuania, said the two countries felt differently about whether news or advertising held more precedence.
"Three-fourths of our income comes from advertising," he said. "For example, my paper has 24 pages and only 8 to 12 pages are used for news."
The biggest difference between the two countries is the importance of a journalism degree when applying for a job at a well-respected newspaper, Hobemagi said.
"In our country, television is not a strong competitor for newspapers," Kanopkaite said. "There are five channels to choose from, that are only on from 7 to 12 at night."
The two countries also vary in the competition between television and newspapers.
"I does not matter if a student graduates from college,"

he said. "Journalism is more than just getting an education."
While the United States and the Baltic states differ tremendously in the layout and operation of their newspapers, they both share one common goal, Hobemagi said. They both are concerned about producing a paper with newsworthy stories that are of interest to the public.

Storm wreaks havoc; 2.4 inches fall in hour
Strong Hall struck by lightning; trees damaged
By Carlos Tejada Kansan staff writer
Johnine Young, a secretary in the Office of Minority Affairs, said it looked like nighttime outside.
"We thought it was 9 o'clock, it was so dark," said Young, who watched Friday's storm from a doorway in front of Strong Hall.

The storm — which occurred about 3 p.m. — dumped 2.4 inches of rain on Lawrence in a single hour, flattened trees and flooded streets. The only lights in the sky were lightning bolts, one of which struck a corner of Strong, scattering limestone chips across the road between Strong and the Spencer Research Library.
Jack Wright, professor of theater and film, sweeps out the lobby of Murphy Hall. Four inches of water ended up in the lobby Friday after an intense hour of rain.
Strong was hit despite the presence of a lightning rod, said Steve Helsel, associate director of landscape, garage and construction for facilities operations.
The storm came from the northwest and consisted mostly of moderate rainfall, said KYula Kula, Leawood senior and volunteer at the KU Weather Service. However, it reached Lawrence during the afternoon where it met the afternoon heat. The resulting turbulence created rain and occasional hurricane-force gusts of wind that the National Weather Service in Topeka did not catch.
kuta said hurricane-force winds moved at least 72 mph. Phillip Bills, a meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Topeka, said the light rain falling over Topeka at the time obscured their weather radar, keeping the storm from being detected until more than an hour later.
Total damage to Strong was between $2,500 and $3,000,
said Helsel. Replacing 17 damaged trees will cost an additional
$12,000, excluding labor.
"By that time, it was too late," he said.
But much of the damage and the possibility of injuries during such a storm could be avoided, Kuia said. He said safety precautions were necessary because violent storms could happen without warning.
"It can be ruled out," he said. "We get one at least once a year. This is typical Kansas weather."

He said complaints about KU's lack of preparation in the
winter were requested for years.

Atkinson.
Hoch was struck by lightning and burned down in Summer 1991. Lightning rods were installed on tops of buildings soon after, Helsel said.
Kula said KU needed to educate the people on campus about where to find safety in the event of a violent storm
"The students of the campus and the faculty don't know where to go," he said. "I don't know where to go."
The drainage system also is ill-equipped to handle such a storm, said Hessel.
"When you get three or four inches in 30 minutes, I don't care how well they work," he said. "They aren't designed."
for that kind of water."
The backpack of the drains flooded streets on campus and filled the kobbs of Murray Hall with four inches of water.
However, Mike Richardson, director of facilities operations, said Kansas weather is not consistently violent enough to justify making improvements.
"We don't experience that kind of rain once per year," he said.
Even if improvements were needed, he said, budget constraints are a problem.
"That isn't a big priority right now," he said.
KU degree could cost more than $40,000
Increasing expenses tuition push up costs
By Lisa Cosmillo
Kansan staff writer
New students at the University of Kansas can expect to pay anywhere from $4,007 to $63,917 for a four-year degree, according to figures from the New Student Orientation Handbook.
Kathryn Kretschmer, director of new student orientation, said that although there were some strategies students could use to defray college-related expenses, the rising cost of higher education was taking a college degree out of reach for many middle-class people.
"The issue of access will be crucial for higher education as we go into the next century," Kretschmer said.
Incoming freshmen from Kansas can expect to pay approximately $9,446 for tuition and expenses at KU this coming year. Out-of-state students will pay approximately $14,464.
"As we all know, KU is one of the more affordable schools," Kretschmer said.
The cost for attending one year at KU for an in-state student has increased by 22 percent during the past two years and by 13 percent for an out-of-state student.
Students can expect their expenses to continue to rise almost as quickly as their tuition, according to figures based on an average projected national inflation rate of 2.9 percent reported in the New York Times, and a consumer price index report from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics indicating that inflation averaged 3.2 percent in May.
Bad news for freshmen
For the 1994-1995 school year tuition may rise as much as 9 percent for in-state students and 13 percent for out-of-state students.
If, after next year, in-state tuition rises only 5 percent each year, out-of-state tuition rises only 9 percent each year and inflation remains at 3 percent, an incoming freshman can expect to pay anywhere from $40,007
Projected yearly cost of KU based on estimated tuition increases of 5 percent and an estimated inflation rate of 3 percent for expenses. These percentages are based on increases during the past three years and statistics from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

These figures are a compilation of a variety of expenses including tuition, housing, food, utilities, books and travel. The estimates are based on an average student. These figures could be higher or lower depending on a student's personal preferences and habits.
Chava MacPhee, assistant director of student financial aid, said students could reduce the cost of attending KU.
"One of the things we suggest is that students live in residence halls because it can be more affordable." MacPhee said.
Other suggestions were to buy used books and not have a car on campus. Car maintenance, gas and parking permits can be expensive, MacPhee said.
Many students are leaving college with an unmanageable debt, Kretschmer said. She recommended that students look into having a part-time job while in college. She said a job could have a number of benefits both financially and educationally.
She also recommended that students and parents sit down together and work out a budget.
Finney encourages at-risk students to stay in high school
Williams key-note speaker of event
By Katie Greenwald Kansan staff writer
Gov. Joan Finney and KU basketball coach Roy Williams were among those who spoke Friday to students, parents and teachers at a recognition luncheon for the Kansas Governor's Academy.
The month-long program, which was conducted at the University of Kansas, gave high school students an opportunity to realize their potential and encouraged them to stay in school.
According to the Kansas Board of Education, 32 percent of Kansas high school students are in danger of dropping out even though they have the
potential to succeed. The Kansas Governor's Academy is designed to help those students.

Williams, the keynote speaker, told students, parents and teachers that his high school basketball coach helped him succeed.
"Sometimes I don't think you get enough recognition," she said.
Williams also encouraged students to do their best to attain their goals.
Jerry Bailey, associate dean of education, said the participating school districts each selected a male and a female student and a mentor. *Programs*

"If it's important to you, be willing to make those sacrifices," he said.
Students also participated in community service projects such as Habitat for Humanity and the First Step House, a Lawrence home for recovering chemically dependent women and their children.

Affirmative Action operates under fairness,not quotas
Bv Lisa Cosmillo
Kansan staffwriter
The Office of Affirmative Action at the University of Kansas has implemented a complex hiring policy seeking to dispel the common misconception that a quota system exists for employing minorities and women.
"We don't operate under a system of quotas," said Joyce Hammond-Perry, associate director for the office.
Fair hiring practices have become a controversial topic in recent years, she said. In her position as associate director, she has had the opportunity to speak to groups of college students. She said she had found that many do not understand the purpose of affirmative action.
All unclassified full-time positions at KU are subject to a search, monitored by the Office of Affirmative Action. A committee is assembled by either the vice chancellor or a dean. It must have at least three members and represent a diverse population.
Carole Ross, acting associate vice chancellor of academic affairs, has served on a number of search committees.
"We try to give equal consideration when it comes to evaluating everybody as a candidate." Ross said. "We do like to encourage women and minorities to势."
The Office of Affirmative Action takes positive steps to make up for some of the discrimination that has occurred in the past. An attempt is made to see that areas which are traditionally occupied by whites and males are more accurately represented by the population served.
reserved by the university. The University attempts to enhance the applicant pool in several ways, Hammond-Perry said. Advertisements may be placed in publications and organizations
that represent women and minorities.
If you look at faculties years and years ago all you see are white males, and most word of mouth advertising was used," Hammond-Perry said. "Most of these white males didn't know any women who they felt could move into any of the faculty positions. They didn't know anyone of color."
According to "A Handbook for Diversity," published by the Office of Affirmative Action, the purpose of a search committee is "to assure that equal opportunity is afforded to all potential and actual applicants and to implement affirmative action when applicable."
The office monitors faculty and staff, searches by looking at the makeup of the search committees and the applicant pool. They send out information request cards to each applicant asking about their gender and race. This information—which is anonymous—then is compared to the individuals the committee chooses to interview and the person they eventually wish to hire.
The office reviews all actions taken, in order to insure that an equal opportunity is given to each applicant, and that the University is protected against lawsuits in cases where the only applicants are white or male.
Ross took part in a search last year in which no women or minorities applied. She said it was discouraging for the committee.
"We did everything we could in the advertising process to make sure people were contacted, but for some reason they just didn't apply. Ross said."
Ann Eversole, director of the organizations and activities center, said although it was a sometimes laborious process, she felt there was no better way to insure fair hiring practices.

OPINION UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
IN OUR OPINION
Students should expect to pay for better faculty
The Board of Regents may have taken the first step toward keeping the University of Kansas a fourstar institution with the proposed tuition increase
1 star institution with the proposed tuition increase to pay for faculty salaries. Even though students will be expected to bear the burden of the salary increase, it is a burden they should have to take up if they want to receive a degree which is meaningful.
In the past two years, several professors have left the University due to salary offers that were more attractive than what they were currently making at KU. KU needs more competitive salaries in order to retain its outstanding faculty members and to make the University marketable to new faculty.
Because of budget cuts, the state claims it cannot afford to increase faculty salaries. Whether this is true or not is not the debate.
Traditionally at KU, the state has picked up the part of the bill that students did not pay. It is this tradition which is coming to an end for several reasons, such as the slumping economy that makes higher education a lower priority. As unpleasant as it may be, reality has come to Kansas. Because the state cannot afford to keep KU an outstanding school, students are going to have to pay.
Eyen with the increase, KU is still affordable.
The raise would be a $71 increase for residents and a $402 increase for nonresidents. This is a minor raise to keep quality faculty at KU.
If students want to receive the excellent education for which KU is traditionally known, they must be willing to bear some of that cost.
The old adage, "You can't get something for nothing" does not just apply to consumer goods. If students want a quality education, they must be willing to foot the bill.

NATIONAL PERSPECTIVE
Terrorist hatemongers should not be allowed to immigrate into U.S.
Last week's bust of a terrorist bombing ring in New York City was clearly the result of superb police work. But the relief of seeing the arrests was tempered by a sobering question. What if?
Had any number of things gone wrong. New York might have erupted in a truly horrifying spectacle of death and ruin. Police say the Muslim extremists involved in the plot had targeted the United Nations building, a large federal building in Manhattan and two tunnels under the Hudson River that carry many thousands of commuters.
What's most disturbing about this case is America's vulnerability to terror of such magnitude. Some of the vulnerability is an inescapable price of maintaining a free and open society as opposed to a safe and hygienic police state. But some of it is self-inflicted.
This conspiracy appears to be closely connected with the bombing of the World Trade Center. In both cases, most of the suspects are not Americans, but Middle Eastern adherents of violent Muslim fundamentalism. Most are devotees of Sheik ibn Abdel Rahman, a New Jersey-based cleric who despises the West and incites his followers to hatred and assassination.
These terrorists weren't drawn here by the American dream; most of them came to make trouble, and they were abetted by ridiculously permissive immigration and asylum policies. Whatever rule allowed Rahman and other hambangers to remain in the country — after entering it illegally in many cases — ought to be discarded as so much suicidal idiocy. The United States has absolutely no obligation, moral or otherwise, to permit vipers like this to breed in its back yard.

BLIND MAN'S BLUFF
Detachment of husband's penis prompts odd search
Finding the proverbial needle in a haystack may prove impossible to some, but not to the Manassas, Va., police department.
In one of the more bizarre news events recently, a 24-year-old woman, after allegedly being raped by her husband, did what some may decry as an atrocity to manhood, while others may claim it was simply an example of women's empowerment.
It seems she applied the biblical saying "If thy right eye offend thee" to the situation and removed the offending organ.
That's right - she whacked off his penis.
According to the news report, this obviously distraught woman fed the house immediately after the incident, genitalia in hand. When she realized this most unfortunate fact, she flung it out the car window.
COLUMNIST
If you have ever tried to start a car and back out of a driveway with a soda in one hand, all I can say is that she must drive an automatic.
VAL
HUBER
This is where the capable hands of the Manassas police department took over. In about an hour, the penis was recovered, packed in ice and taken to the hospital where it could be reatached.
The doctor who performed the delicate operation attributed successful reattachment to both the penis' quick
recovery from the road and the fact that the woman used a sharp knife and made a clean cut. While I would never want to imagine what took place before penile dismemberment, this is what I think took place in the briefing room before the search:
Sergeant: Not who man, what. I'm talking member. a... you know, um, well... a John Thomas.
Police Sergeant: I'm afraid we have a lost member somewhere out on highway 40. I want all available officers to participate in the search.
Officer: Who is it sir?
WEBB I BOWLING
Officer: John Thomas . . . Wasn't he arrested last night on a drunk and disorderly last night. Sergeant?
Female Officer: I think he means a penis. (Ever notice that men hate to say that word?)
Officer. Should we call out the dogs. 47'.
Sergeant: Yes, that's it.
Sergeant: I think that, well um,
because of the delicate nature of the search, the dogs would not be a good idea. Now I want every square inch searched. Everybody out there should be giving 150 percent. Think of it as your own . . . no, forget that.
The men, with visions of "Fatal Attraction" in their heads, scour the search area diligently. The women, probably wondering what a few inches of recovered flesh could do to better mankind, adopt a somewhat less aggressive approach.
Nevertheless, the organ is recovered. Thanks to the miracle of science and a clean stroke on the part of the woman penile reattachment can take place.
I wonder what will happen to the couple.
In any case, I'm sure we will see them both on "Geraldo."
If we can have movies glorifying people like a craized cult leader in Waco who impregnates his female following and an alleged Texas cheerleader murdering mom, why not?
Will she file for divorce, or will she follow in the steps of Mary Jo Buttafuoco and stand by her man? Maybe we will soon see a movie of the week: "Tragedy at Manassas: The Penis Incident."

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Classified senator's letter oversteps ethical boundaries
This is a response to Mike Auchard's letter to the editor concerning the Custodial Olympics.
After reading the article concerning the Custodial Olympics, we felt the Classified Employees were totally misrepresented by Mike Auchud. As an officer of the Classified Senate, it is his responsibility to represent all classified employees.
It is our opinion that he failed to research the facts on both sides of this issue. We also felt that by his examples, he put a false light on what our profession is all about.
Department of Human Resources, it would only be the concern of those parties involved. This was a breach of confidentiality which makes it impossible for anyone to make a fair and reasonable decision. If the grievance does, in fact, exist, this should automatically void the grievance because of publication.
The most disturbing part of his letter was the fact that Auchud took it upon himself to step over the bounds of ethics by mentioning a tool of conciliation that does not pertain to him. If a grievance has been filed with the
We feel that Auchard had no idea of the repercussions and the impact that his letter would create or he would not have been so quick to write such a one-sided, misinformed point of view.
But then, maybe he would.

PC has kept opinions debate out of KU classes
With one year left of my college career, I've started to assess my education at the University of Kansas. I've been asking myself, "Am I smarter, well-rounded, more marketable for a job than I was three years ago?" The answer probably is yes. I can't say I haven't learned anything.
But these questions brought me to another that was a little more difficult to answer. What exactly am I supposed to learn?
Traditionally, colleges and universities are places where opinions are expressed openly, ideas exchanged freely and theories debated vigorously. Looking honestly at my years at KU, the University has failed to meet these requirements.
In my general classes, I spent most of my time listening to professors spout an "objective" viewpoint about topics like sociology, history, psychology and science. I, in turn, listened, read the text and then regurgitated the desired information for tests and papers. In some cases, I didn't even read the text or go to the class. Amazingly, I still did well.
Even though I will graduate with a good grade point average, the university has cheated me of the traditional benefit of a college experience. In very few of my classes were opinions expressely free or debate embraced. In too many classes, the professor did not even give an opinion about the subject of study. One even said he did not tell the class what theories he believed because it would influence our ability to choose for ourselves. I said to myself, "What does he think I am? A meek lamb that can be molded and shaped in his image. I can think for myself and form my own opinion." Another professor wouldn't tell the class her beliefs on racial relations in the United States because she feared it would offend some of the members of the class.
The age of political correctness and inclusion has made many professors and students afraid to share their views. No one wants to offend anyone. So no one acknowledges that everyone does not think alike, because if everyone didn't think alike that would present conflict, which in this age has been deemed bad.
The best classes I have taken at KU have been taught by professors who provided instruction on all the theories of a topic and then, most importantly, he or she said which one he or she subscribed to and why. They welcomed views of students who agreed and those who disagreed. No one was forced to accept the professor's opinion. And, at the least, I walked out of those classes better educated than when I walked in.
Universities today are giving students a generic education, one that is agreeable to everyone and one that robots students of the rewards of hearing opinions different than their own.
Next May, when I walk down the Hill, I will have spent four years of my life not learning what a university truly is supposed to teach me - how to form my own opinion and at least hear, if not understand, the opinions of others.

Record flooding causes damage
Midwest towns hit the hardest
The Associated Press
PERUQUE, Mo. — Flood-weary Midwestern helped by members of the National Guard fought high water from the mighty Mississippi yesterday. The river rose to record heights and threatens to keep on rising.
Another round of downpours Monday fed the flood from the already swollen river, breaking more leaves, forcing more evacuations and destroying crops. Additional storms were forecast at least through the end of the week, contributing to the region's worst flooding since 1965.
In West Alton, residents and Guard members worked through the night
stacking sandbags atop leaves protecting the town. Troops also have been called in to help in flooded areas of Iowa and Illinois.
A little upriver at Peruque, a lave was breached Monday and 11 rural homes had to be evacuated. Thousands of acres of cropland were already underwater, and an additional 1,000 acres and as many as 50 homes are threatened, said spokesman Rod Zerr.
In Illinois, about 450 residents were evacuated Monday from low-lying areas in East Dubuque.
Some of the worst flooding was in Davenport, Iowa, which has no leaves or flood walls. The Mississippi appeared to have crested there Monday at 22 feet and was down slightly overnight.
But because of more heavy rain in Iowa, Wisconsin and Minnesota, it is
expected to rise again, cresting even higher today at 22.4 feet, just short of the record of 22.5 feet.
"When it's going to end?" Victor Cardoza asked as he operated pumps keeping water from underground power lines in downtown Davenport.
Electrician Tom Werner said he didn't mind manning the pumps at FirstStar Bank.
"Might as well be here doing this since I can't fishing" he said.
Downstream from Davenport, the river hit a record 22.5 feet yesterday at Burlington, Iowa, and was expected to climb another foot by Friday. It hit a record 23.8 feet yesterday at Keokau, Iowa, with an additional 2.7 feet expected by Friday.
Towns along the river's tributaries also were mounded. Along the scenic River Rock in Moline, III, flood waters have entered Grace Doreck's
living room.
"I've never known a flood like this in July," she said. "And all we hear about is the flooding on the Mississippi." It's as if they've forgotten us out here."
The Rock River in Moline was two feet above the flood stage of 12 feet Monday and still rising.
Also Monday, authorities recovered the body of a 5-year-old boy who drowned near Wananango, Minn., in the swollen Zumbro River, which flows into the Mississippi. Andrew Sather was the third child to drown in Minnesota rivers since the flooding began.
As much as six inches of rain prompted flash-flood alerts for small streams in western Iowa and north-western Illinois. Up to four inches fell in northeast Iowa, where homes were evacuated in the town of Langworthy after a creek surged out of its banks.
U.S., Japan talk trade at economic summit
The Associated Press
TOKYO — As world leaders gathered for their annual economic summit yesterday, President Bill Clinton and Japanese Prime Minister Kiichi Miyazawa expressed optimism about concluding a broad trade agreement that would resolve a dispute between the world's two top economic powers.
Both Clinton and Miyazawa said progress was being made in last-minute talks aimed at forging a broad framework agreement that the United States believes will help reduce the U.S.' $50 billion trade deficit with Japan.
This is Clinton's debut at the annual gathering of capitalism's premier
club — the Group of Seven — where there have been extremely low expectations, given the economic problems facing the global economy and the weak standing of the participants.
However, a U.S.-Japan trade deal, or even significant progress toward one, could change the tone of the three-day gathering
In a clear recognition of political realities, Clinton was scheduled to hold discussions with Japanese opposition leaders immediately following his talks with Miyazawa.
The U.S. administration had hoped to use Clinton's trip to Tokyo to pressure Japan to make its markets more open and set goals for increasing foreign imports by negotiating a broad framework agreement.
WORLD BRIEF
The Associated Press
South African election date sparks riots
KATLEHONG, South Africa — An outburst of political fighting in two Black townships killed dozens of people yesterday, a grim reminder of how difficult it will be for South Africa to hold democratic elections.
After overnight battles, police said at least 45 people had been killed in Tokoza and Katlehong, two impoverished townships southeast of Johannesburg.
Nationwide, more than 125 Blacks have died since Friday, when Black and white negotiators set April 27, 1994, as the date for South Africa's first elections including the Black majority.
most of the township fighting involved supporters of the African National Congress and the Zulu-dominated Inkatha Freedom Party, the nation's two leading Black groups and bitter rivals for power.
Inkatha was one of six groups that opposed setting the election date at Friday's talks, arguing that negotiators must first decide the type of government to replace white rule.
Yesterday Inkatha spokesman Themba Khoza said ANC supporters had attacked Inkatha supporters.
With the level of violence, it would be difficult, if not impossible, to hold fair elections. In areas controlled by either the ANC or Inkatha supporters, opponents would risk attack if they tried to campaign on a rival's turf.

Tuition raises 'in-state' problems
Continued from Page 1.
Enrollment for the spring semester at JCCC showed 109 students who were enrolled at KU during the fall semester. They took a total of 848 hours and run a bill of more than $20,000 for Douglas County.
However, Weinan said such estimates were probably too small. He said that even students who were official residents of Douglas County were a burden because of their student status. The typical student comes to Douglas County as a freshman and leaves upon graduation. In the meantime, the student does not own property or pay property taxes.
Weinaug said most students fit that category.
In comparison, the people who pay the out-district tuition bill are property owners who are permanent residents of Douglas County. Out-district tuition is paid for by a 1.22 million levy, or a tax of $1.22 for every $1000 of property value. Weinau said most students did not pay such taxes.
State Sen, Sandy Praeger, R-Lawrence, said the requirements for becoming a resident of a Kansas county should be more stringent. The current out-district tuition system says a puppe establishes residency in six months, whereas Regents schools such as KU require 12 months plus certain legal and financial qualifications.
rineager said community colleges needed to apply the same standards
"We recognize out-of-state doesn't apply to the tax base," she said. "Why shouldn't that same philosophy apply to a community college?"
JCCC needs to be more specific
Johnson County Community College's charges to Douglas County 1990 1993 Since 1990, Douglas County's payments to JCCC have increased 5.3 percent. Payment is determined by the number of credit hours in which residents of Douglas County are enrolled in a community college outside the county.
1990 $218,136
1991 $268,960
1992 $293,340
1993 $332,856
about exactly where its students come from, she said.
"I don't think anyone at Johnson County even really asks the question," she said.
However, State Sen. Audrey Langworthy, R-Prairie Village, said keeping track of students was Douglas County's responsibility.
"If Douglas County is upset about it, they need to make sure those students pay taxes and live in Douglas County," said Largworthy
Langworth is a member of the Legislature's education committee and a member of a community college task force, which was formed by the Legislature in its last session to look at community college and vocational school funding.
Langworthy said the out-district tuition system itself worked well.
"If the students are truly Douglas County students, I think it's fair," she said. "Johnson County residents all pay a property tax to support the college. Douglas County residents don't."
However, Langworthy said JCCC might need a better way to determine
a student's residency status.
---
"Maybe they need to ask another question," she said.
Like Flaherty, many KU students attend JCCC classes because of academic difficulties, said Joe Van Zandt, director of KU's advising support center.
Van Zandt said students commonly took Math 002 and 101 there because many students distilled those classes at KU.
"They're taught in a fashion which is repugnant to them for some reason," he said.
He said JCCC provided lower-level classes and learning labs that many college students need.
"Johnson County, in part, has better facilities for marginal students than KU does." Van Zandt said.
Flaberty said he thought JCC was more attumed to his needs than KU was. He said he often felt as if KU's emphasis was toward upper-level classes.
"They got me stuck in those damn Spanish and math classes," he said.
"I had a teacher rather than 'teach yourself.' Flaherty也
He said he got more personal attention at JCCC than at KU.
Dick Dyer, director of budget for JCCC, said KU students came to JCCC for a variety of reasons.
He said that credits were transferable and that the quality of education at JCCC was rated in the top ten of U.S. community colleges by a recent University of Texas study.
"People come here because they know they'll get their money's worth," he said.
Both he and Flaherty dismissed the idea that JCCC classes were easier than KU classes.
"A lot of people say that," Flaherty said. "But I know for a fact my math teacher wasn't easy."
She said it was difficult for academically dismissed students to leave town.
Elsabeth Shanker, Newport Beach, Calif., senior, took a total of 19 hours last year at JCCC, which cost Douglas County $456. She said she went to JCCC to complete her administration of justice degree.
Praeger said the only institution in Douglas County that could provide classes for academically dismissed students was Haskell Indian Junior College. However, she said, Haskell's administrators did not like the idea.
it's really not feasible if you live here and your stuff and your friends are here," she said. "It would just be a waste of time."
"There was a fear Haskell would become a community college for Douglas County," she said.
Dan Wildcat, chairperson of the department of natural and social sciences at Haskell, agreed.
"Many of the Indian nations that send students here are concerned that if non-natives are allowed to enter, Haskell might become an Indian college that's mainly non-Indian," he said.
For now, the problem remains unsolved.
Langworthy said the Community College Task Force only had begun to outline the problem. She said she doubted a solution would appear soon.
"It's not an easy issue," she said.

WWII commemoration planned
Lawrence could be part of a national awareness program
Kansan staff writer
By Katie Greenwald
Kansan staff writer
Midway, Guadalcanal, Normandy Hiroshima.
Margaret Middleton wants these places to sound familiar.
Middleton, a member of the American Legion Auxiliary, is in the process of having Lawrence declared a World War II Commemorative Community during the 50th anniversary of the war.
The purpose of the five-year national program is to honor World War II veterans and to develop programs and activities to heighten community and national awareness about the war. The United States participated in the war from 1941 to 1945.
Establishing a commemorative committee is the first step in the program. The committee must design a plan to honor veterans and to educate the community about the war. Then it must apply to the Department of Defense 50th Anniversary of World War II Commemoration Committee in Crystal City, Va. Finally, the local committee must conduct at least
three commemorative activities a year.
There are about nine million living World War II veterans. Because of the veterans' advancing age, this anniversary may be the last major commemoration in which many veterans will be able to participate. Middleton said.
Part of the commemorative program is aimed at the younger generation. Middleton said she thought students did not have many opportunities to study the war.
"Nearly 60 percent of today's population was not alive during the war," she said.
That is a good argument for educating people about that era, she said.
Former President George Bush started the program in 1991David Katzman, professor of history and American studies, said the younger generation had a difficult time learning history.
"People are losing knowledge," Katman said. "With all the information that's out there, we tend to be more present-minded."
He said World War II had a lot of mixed messages of which people should be aware.
"It was a war for freedom, but there was also intolerance and segregation in our country," he said. "The civil rights movement had its origins during World War II. That ought to be
remembered."
Middleton has worked in conjunction with the United Veteran's Organization of Douglas County to sponsor several programs and activities. The organization has conducted an Independence Day parade for the last two years. Last year, the parade was a part of the commemorative program. Thus year the parade was canceled because of rain.
The organization also conducted a Veterans Day program last November. A World War II veteran, a Vietnam veteran and a member of the POW-MIA coalition were among those who spoke at the event. The program also included a salute to deceased veterans.
In addition to the parade and other Fourth of July activities, the organization will sponsor a World War II display this month at the Lawrence Public Library.
The city has agreed to plant a tree in recognition of the World War II veterans. Middleton said. She said she hoped to have it planted next spring.
Middleton said she also hoped to have a presentation at Elizabeth M. Watkins Community Museum this winter and a display at the post office next summer. For one day in 1995, the last year of the commemoration, the post office will stamp letters with a commemorative seal, she said.
AREA BRIEFS
A man was convicted Thursday of two counts of first-degree murder in the March 13 shooting deaths of his ex-wife and her fiance.
Ex-husband convicted of two murders
The jury decided not to give Victor Smith, 35, a "Hard 40" prison sentence for the deaths of Linda Smith, 34, and John Pease, 47. The sentence, which requires a jury decision, would have given Smith 40 years in prison before being eligible for parole.
Douglas County District Judge Mike Malone now is responsible for sentencing. The two convictions each
require a life sentence, and Smith must serve a minimum of 15 years for each.
David Berkowitz, Smith's attorney, said he intended to file motions for a new trial.
Smith testified that he acted in self-defense and that he was impaired by alcohol and crack cocaine at the time of the shootings.
A hearing is set for 11 a.m. July 22. If Malone denies the motions, Smith will be sentenced at that time
TOPEKA — The Rev. Fred Phelps Sr. has won a significant legal victory in his battle with Shawnee County's chief prosecutor against his colorful public crusade against homosexuality.
Phelps wins victory against prosecution
U. S. District Judge Sam Crow of Topeka declared the state's criminal defamation law unconstitutional Friday. Crow said a prosecution under the law violated free speech rights guaranteed by the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
Shawnee County District Attorney Joan Hamilton has filed 11 criminal charges against Phelps, nine of them for criminal defamation. Phelps, a dis
barred attorney and unsuccessful political candidate, is pastor of Topeka's Westboro Bantist Church.
In his 47-page ruling, Crow also questioned Hamilton's motives in prosecuting Phelps. He said she appeared to have filed charges partly for political and personal reasons.
"The First Amendment stands as a bastion to protect expression of both hate and love, tolerance and intolerance, and prejudice and compassion," Crow wrote.

Market offers goods, good times
Fresh produce, friends all gather at Lawrence's weekly marketplace
The Lawrence Farmer's Market is an outdoor grocery store with a coffee-shop heart.
"People like to come down here and shop," said Shelley Puckett, manager of the market. "But they also like to talk to people. It's very social."
The market, located in a parking lot at 10th and Vermont streets, is ripe with homemade and homegrown goods. About 30 vendors display tomatoes, flowers, jars of pickled asparagus, bread, clay pots, wicker baskets, exotic foods such as grape leaves stuffed with rice and kuffa, grilled sausage with onions.
Everything is local and natural, Puckett said. Insecticides are not used.
She said the market has provided vendors a place to sell their goods for the last 23 years, helping local farmers and the economy from late March to early October. But Puckett said the market also catered to consumers who wanted fresh foods.
"As consumers you get to pick what you want to eat." Puckett said.
"When you go to Checkers or Dillons you get corn. But here, you get to find out what kind of corn it is."
The market, sponsored by the Downtown Lawrence Association, allows people to buy healthy, natural foods that contain no preservatives or artificial flavors.
"It's food that's good for you," Puckett said. "You get used to food like that once you start eating it."
About 3,000 people come to the market from 6:30 to 10 a.m. on Saturdays. The market is also open from 4 to 6:30 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
"It's amazing when you think how
many pounds of tomatoes 3,000 people can buy," Puckett said.
But the market, like a coffee shop is social.
Catherine Bolton, Perry resident, sells anything pickled, from asparagus to green beans.
"I really enjoy cooking." Bolton said. "But I also just like to come here for the social aspect. The market is Lawrence's Saturday social event."
Pat Snow, Lawrence resident,
weaves baskets and sells them at the market. She agreed that half the fun was talking to people.
"I enjoy the atmosphere," Snow said. "I enjoy meeting new people, talking to them, seeing my baskets walk by."
Beulah Duncan, Lawrence resident, said she shopping at the market for the fresh vegetables and the familiar faces.
"You meet the same people every Saturday morning, have a cup of coffee and exchange pleasantries," Duncan said.
Puckett said she enjoyed the downhome atmosphere that makes the market nostalgic.
"If you see something like grandma used to have, like a rhubarb pie, you can ask someone how to make a rhubarb pie," Puckett said. "You can't do that at a grocery store."
Topright, Linda Steele hands a customer a bag of cabbage from Linda and Gary's Organic Produce at the Farmer's Market.

During recent renovations at KU's oldest building, construction workers, who were installing a new heating-ventilation system, uncovered a piece of Spooner Hall history.
For 99 years Spooner Hall has faced Jayhawk Boulevard proclaiming in an inscription over its front doors, "Whoso findeth wisdom findeth life."
On June 22, 1894, David Shiren of Lawrence and Garry Braiden of Oswego, N.Y., signed their names on the interior of a wall before sealing it, said Al Johnson, director of the Museum of Anthropology.
According to "The University of Kansas: A History" by Clifford S. Griffen, Spooner was built using funds left to the University in the will of William Spooner, a wealthy leather merchant and philanthropist.
"It was the first of the University's buildings to have some architectural significance, to escape from the triteness, homeliness and merely derivative nature of the other structures. Its architect was the nationally famous Henry Van Brunt of Kansas City, Mo." Griffen wrote."Large and pleasant, well-lighted and well-appointed, the library had a capacity of about 100,000 volumes, or almost five times as many as the University then had."
According to a brochure published by the Historic Mount Oread Fund, Spooner has gone through three incarnations. It opened in 1894 as a library, then in 1924 it became the Spooner-Thayer Art Museum. In 1984 it became the Museum of Anthropology.
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic places in 1973.
The sandstone exterior of the building is washing away with each rain. Johnson said. Unfortunately, it will cost about $1 million to fix it. The building was built last year. The funding has not been allocated.
"It will have to happen eventually or the building will have serious structural damage," Johnson said.

Audience takes role in play
Director lends Shakespeare comedy a modern touch
By Todd Puntney
Kansan staff writer
Jets whizzing overhead; sirens screaming in the distance; Scud missiles falling haphazardly from the sky.
It sounds more like Desert Storm than Shakespeare.
That is precisely what Paul Meier, associate professor of theatre and film, and director of the KU Summer Theater's production of "The Comedy of Errors," hopes will happen.
"Ive transported the play to contemporary times, in a backdrop more reminiscent of Qaddafi and Saddam Hussein and Desert Storm," Meier said.
Meier said he adjusted the play to make it more enjoyable for the audience, without ruining the original intent of Shakespeare.
"People often think about the modernization of Shakespeare that you're doing something strange," Meier said. "But it's really no heresy to put it in terms which an audience understands. It makes more sense to an audience to see a drug smugger or gun runner than an Arab caravan of the 15th century."
It also adds to the timeless humor that Shakespeare wrote centuries ago, Meier said. The story revolves around two sets of identical twins who, unaware that the other exists, stumble upon each other in Ephesus, a port city in Turkey.
Ephesus was exotic and intriguing when Shakespeare wrote the play, Meier said. With the new production, which runs at 8 p.m. on July 9, 10, 11 and 16, 17, and 18 at Crafton-Preyer Theater. Ephesus would remain mysterious but contemporary.
"There are Bedouins on Homeland, American oil executives with cellular phones, lap-top computers and pagers, and military dictators playing nuclear brinkmanship with the West." Meier
Because he prefers "environmental theater," where the setting of the play surrounds the audience in every aspect. Meier said he hoped the
production would be like a roller coaster ride.
"It's really an assault on the senses," he said. Ephesus is at war with Syracuse, another city-state. That gave Meier the artistic license to blow things up.
"The culminating thing is this air raid," he said; "I've got the most tremendous air battle going on, with explosions on stage, jets screaming overhead in stereo. We've got all the pyrotechnics that one can have."
Using a Shakespearean tactic, Meier will have part of the audience sit on the stage. Shakespeare called it "in the round."
"I like to work very intimately with the audience," he said. "They'll never be more than 20 to 30 feet from an actor. By doing this I'm making this visit to Ephesus dangerous for the audience, too, I'm not letting them sit back safe."
Sanders armed with mock AK-47's will harass the audience and demand passports. Instead of resting from the action during intermission; Middle Eastern food prepared by the Kansas Union will be served.
"Rather than letting them think that during intermission, time and space is suspended. I've continued it," he said.
around a bit, and not let them go until he is done.
Five sets of twins, who helped teach the actors
how to behave like twins, will collect tickets for
the show.
Meier likes to pull the audience in, shake them around a bit, and not let them go until he is done;
Ken Stewart, Deto Soto junior, plays the part of the goldsmith, Angelo. He said the production would enhance the audience's experience.
"The design aspects of the play are really neat." Stewart said. "Because the audience is asked to come up on stage and interact with the characters, it gives you a real sense of the theater. Plus, slapstick is always funny and there is a lot of that."
Meier said he hoped people would enjoy the production, if not for his additions, for the original Shakespeare.
But audience beware.
"Like the total experience," he said. "The audience gets pulled into the action, and gets used and abused. It's a dangerous thing for the audience."
Tickets cost $6 for the general public. Student tickets are $3 and senior citizen tickets are $5.

After helping lead the Kansas men's basketball team to the Final Four, Rex Walters and Adonis Jordan will have opportunities to continue their basketball careers at a higher level.
Both were selected in the NBA draft, held last Wednesday at The Palace in Auburn Hills. Mich. Walters was the No. 16 selection overall and was taken by the New Jersey Nets. The Seattle Supersonics selected Jordan in the second round. No. 42 overall.
Walters, who watched the draft from his home in San Jose, Calif., said his selection was a great situation for him.
"I had good vibes going in, and I'm going to work my fail off to make sure their decision was a good one." Walters said.
While Nets General Manager Willis Reed was happy to get Walters, he was hoping to draft Terry Dehere from Seton Hall Dehere was selected No. 13 by the Los Angeles Clippers.

Draft experts said the Nets needed a guard to replace Drazen Petrovic. Petrovic died earlier this summer in a car accident.
"With the tragic loss of Drazen Petrovic, it really opens things up at the shooting guard spot." Walters said. "But I want to earn my playing time."
Walers said that comparing himself to Petrovic was difficult.

the same type of success that he did,' he said.
Walters said the Nets had a great nucleus with forward Derrick Coleman and point guard Kenny Anderson.
"When you talk about the Nets you have to start with those two guys," Walters said.
New Jersey coach Chuck Daly said the Nets needed a guard that could shoot well, preferably a left-handed one. He said the left-handed Walters would help the left-handed Coleman and Anderson.
"Anybody who watched us play last year, and particularly as the season went on, found that Derrick was being double- and even triple-teamed." Daly said. "We now have three left-handers."
Jordan watched the draft at Kansas coach Roy Williams' house.
said Jordan could fit well into the 'Sonics pressing, trapping style of basketball.
"There are a lot of seniors out there that would like to be in my shoes," Jordan said. "Around the 30th pick, I started getting edgy wondering why my name wasn't getting called."
"He's one of the top players from one of the top programs in the country," Karl said. "He's not flamboyant; he's not flashy, he just wins."
Jordan had arthroscopic surgery after the college season ended, but he said he did not think the surgery hurt his draft position.

he said. "We switch a lot and get into mismatches a lot. How he handles that remains to be seen."
The Supersonics, Western Conference finalists last season, are deep at the guard position. Their roster includes point guards Gary Payton and Nate McMillan, but Karl is hopeful Jordan can impress him and open up a spot on the roster for himself
forcing the 'Sonics to decide who to keep.
Jordan said he liked the way Seattle

Scott selected for Team USA
Team will start play tomorrow
Kansan staff report
Kansas forward Richard Scott has earned a berth on the World University Games team representing the United States.
Scott was one of 12 players selected last week to play in the 24-team tournament in Buffalo, N.Y.
The team's first game will be tomorrow against the team from the African nation of Gabon. The United States has won the last two World University Games championships.
The U.S. team is comprised of current college players and players who have recently completed their college eligibility. The team includes Donald Williams from North Carolina and Antonio Lang from Duke. Along with Scott, the Big Eight Conference is represented by Oklahoma's left Webster
Scott, in Buffalo for the World University Games, could not be reached
for comment.
Scott was selected for his presence under the basket, said Craig Miller, assistant executive director of USA Basketball.
"He's a player who doesn't have to score to make an impact in the game," Miller said. "He will be an inside force if he makes it bounding, and he is a good defender."
Having a player from Kansas is another asset to the team, Miller said.
"Coming from Kansas, he knows the intellectual parts of the game," he
The team spent the Fourth of July weekend playing two exhibition games in Canada against the Canadian and Ireland World University teams. The U.S. team left for Buffalo on Monday.
The tournament will last until July 17, when the gold and bronze medal games are played.
From the 60 players trying out in mid-May in Chicago, 30 finalists were picked for two different teams. The other team selected was the Under 22 team, coached by Roy Williams and including Jayhawk guard Steve Woodberry.

Bledsoe, who left Washington State after his junior season, signed for $500,000 less than Indianapolis quarterback Jeff George, the top pick in 1980. He received a $15 million, six year dead, said Leigh Steinberg, agent for both.
He said Bledsoe's deal was the heaviest commitment that a team has ever made to a draft pick because, unlike George's contract, none of the money is deferred.
Paralyzed player starts analyst career
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Dennis Byrd, whose football career ended abruptly last season when he broke his neck, has taken the first step toward a new career by signing with CBS Sports as an analyst.
The network made the announcement Monday, saying the former New York Jets defensive lineman would work six games during the upcoming NFL season.
On Nov. 29, 1992, Byrd was paralyzed from the neck down when he was hit on the head during a game against Kansas City. Miraculously, he took his first, halting steps on crutches $ \mid $ months later.
"I think there is hope that this will be the start of a whole new adventure for him," said Rick Gentile, CBS Sports senior vice president. "I sense that he is very, very excited about it, as we are."
Byrd, who is working long hours to finish a book that is nearing death while he still is in intensive rehabilitation, was not available to comment.

Super collider funding cut controversial
By David Stewart Special to the Kansan
Despite an overwhelming vote in Congress last month to kill the $1 billion Superconducting Super Collider project, a KU professor still hopes the Senate will restore the funding.
The project is an effort to better understand the inner makeup of an atom's nucleus, said Francis Prosser, associate head of the physics and astronomy department. The super collider will be 10 times more powerful than any current particle accelerator in the United States.
Prosser said the project represented the forefront of high-technology research and deserved to have its funding restored.
"It will be a blow to U.S. prestige in science if this project is dropped," he said.
The Senate is expected to vote on the collider's funding after returning from its August recess. Two weeks ago, the House voted 280 to 150 to stop funding for the project.
Collaborating with other researchers at Kansas State University and the University of Colorado, six
KU physics professors are contributing to the project's design and construction.
Prosser said the research team also would help develop the project's particle detectors. The detectors will record the impact of high/ly accelerated atoms as they speed around the collider's two 54-mile rings.
"These detectors have 'to be able to track all the pieces of the particles after they collide," Prosser said.
"Their purpose is to reconstruct the event," he said. "It could be analogous to an indy race car driver flying into the wall and trying to reconstruct the pieces from a video tape of the moments right after the accident."
Prosser responded to criticism that the project appeared to have little practical application by saying that the results of research are often unexpected and extremely beneficial.
"Relativity and nuclear energy are good examples from history." Prosser said. "No one would have predicted when these theories were first proposed what would happen. But look at all the positive results that came out of them."
eve as an example.
Prosser used laser surgery on the
"Nuclear energy research did not come out of eye surgery. It worked the other way around." Prosser said. "For this type of project, you just can't predict. You just can't promise what will happen."
This uncertainty of the project's potential outcome was one factor that led Rep. Jim Slattery, D-Kan., to vote against the project.
In a prepared statement, Slattery supported his vote to cut funding by citing a Congressional Budget Office report on the questionable outcomes of the project. The report stated that research would be limited, and it would not have many practical applications.
Jim McLean, press secretary for Slattery, said the congressman had serious reservations about the overall cost of the super collider project.
"He's concerned with the fact the project is 51 percent over budget," McLean said. "The super collider has been funded and an incredible amount of money."
So far the project has cost $2 billion and would cost more than $500 million a year to operate, Slattery said. It
was scheduled for completion in about eight years.
Rep. Jan Meyers, R-Kan., said that she regretted having to vote against the project, but that the potential benefits of the collider could not justify the cost.
"High technology is the whole future of the United States," Riker said. "It's pretty sad to be giving up our technological advantage. Just picking out one project and making that the sacred cow for the budget deficit is denigrating to the budgetary process."
"I would like to see SSC funded but not right now." Meyers said. "It is such a terribly costly program. It is consuming a very large portion of the science funding that might be better spent elsewhere."
Sen. Boh Dole, R-Kan, remains a strong supporter of the project. His press secretary, Walt Riker, said funding for the project should continue.
Riker said that Senate approval to continue to finance the project is still possible.
"It probably has the momentum to pass the Senate in some form," Riker said.
City Commission discusses sidewalk-dining ordinance
Kansan staff report
The City Commission last night discussed a draft ordinance that would allow sidewalk dining in Lawrence.
The ordinance would require that the establishment maintain 70 percent of its sales in food and non-alcoholic beverages. It also would require that the applicant pay an annual fee of $3.50 per square foot for the use of the public sidewalk.
At a meeting in June, Bob Schumm, former city commissioner and owner of the Massachusetts Street Delicatessen, 941 Massachusetts St. requested that the city allow him to use the sidewalk in front of his restaurant for outdoor dining.
At that time, Schumman said he intended to for a dining establishment liquor license. That made it necessary for the city staff to devise a draft ordinance that would exempt Schumman's establishment from a city code for bribing the consumption of alcohol on city property.
The commissioners also discussed the type of barrier that should be used to separate the dining area from the rest of the sidewalk.
Commissioner Bob Sohlbele suggested that the barrier be required to be made of wrought iron. He said he thought it would be important that some sort of uniformity exist in case other restaurants request use of the sidewalk for dining.
"I don't think, as you walk down the street, you're going to appreciate the appearance of 10 or 12 different styles of barrier," he said.
Schulte also said that a wrought-iron fence would not be as obtrusive as a solid barrier.

Flooding lingers in North Lawrence
Residents left without water
By Kate Greenwald and Carlos Tejada
Kansas state writers
Kansan staff writers
On the bridge overlooking North Second Street, children and adults leap off the 14-foot drop and land in 12 feet of brown water instead of on asphalt.
On the roof of a nearby house, a cloth banner says, "Save North Lawrence, before it's too late."
Friday night's storm, which the KU Weather Service said dumped more than five inches of water in the Lawrence area has completely shut down one of Lawrence's largest business districts. The flood has endangered North Lawrence's drinking water, damaged an estimated $1.6 million in public and private property, and drawn the attention of city commissioners and Gov. Joan Finney.
The storm also brought two tornadoes, which touched down near Lawrence Municipal Airport and set off the city.
tornado warning sirens at approximately 11:30 p.m. the sirens went on again shortly after midnight.
The flooding has been severely damaging to businesses in North Lawrence, said Paula Phillips, director of emergency preparedness for Douglas County. She said more than 50 businesses had been

closed and some of them might never reopen.
Local flooding was a major topic of conversation at last night's city commission meeting.
"it's a frustrating situation," she said. "There aren't any easy answers. A lot of them are literally on the verge of failure."
Four residents, the tenants of a mobile home and long-term renters at the Jayhawk Motel, 1004 North Third St. were evacuated. Phillips said.
Phillips said the standing water contained sewage because a sanitary sewer lift station had become submerged, allowing sewage to seep into the water on North Second Street. However, she said hourly testing of the tap water had failed to find any contamination.
The flood prompted a visit on Monday by Finney, who told city officials she had spoken to Vice President Al Gore by phone about federal disaster relief. She said that although no aid had been pledged yet, Gore had reassured her that he and President Bill Clinton were watching the entire Midwest flood situation.
The sheer volume of water, ironically, left North Lawrence without water. Phillips said the city issued warnings against using the tap water. Because five hydrants had been completely submerged, officials feared the sewage in the standing water would leak into North Lawrence's tap water.
Little could keep local business owners from becoming frustrated with the cleanup effort. A meeting of business owners, Phillips and members of the city commission, held at Johnny's Tavern, 401 North Second St., showed the frustration of local businesses, said Bob Moody, city commissioner.
Moody said that many of their frustrations were justified, but Lawrence was better off than many other areas of the Midwest.
Drainage at first was slowed because of high river levels. Phillips said. She said the height of the river had closed the flood gates, keeping the water from draining naturally. However, the river's water levels have dropped enough so that flood controls work properly.
Workers have pumped water from the flooded areas into the Kansas River since Saturday. Yesterday, workers received a pump capable of flushing 14,000 gallons of water a minute, said Joe Miller, an equipment operator on the public works crew at the flood site. However, he said draining all the water out of North Lawrence still would take two to three days.
INSIDE
"The levee system is doing what it's supposed to do." Phillips said. "It's keeping the water from the Kansas River in the Kansas River and keeping it from getting so high it goes over the leves."
Brod Bremby, assistant city manager, said the pumping volume was not the only factor, however. He said the crews were disposing of the water by pumping it into the river through a nearby manhole. The channel is only eight inches across, which limits the speed of drainage.

Shoppers beware of severe weather

If you are at a business during an emergency, you should stay away from windows and doors and avoid wide-span roof areas, said Phillips. She said people should seek cover in the interior halls or the backs of buildings.
When the tornado siren sounds, businesses should know what to do with their clientele.
Paula Phillips, director of Emergency Preparedness, said businesses need to make sure that they keep their customers and employees away from windows and doors. The majority of people who die in tornadoes are killed by flying debris, she said.
"If it's a small building like The Yacht Club, you get as many people in the back as you can, away from the windows," she said. The Yacht Club is a bar at 530 Wisconsin St.
Bob Weigel, manager of the Dillons at 3000 M. Sixth St., said his was prepared. Customer service employees monitor the weather and inform customers if a tornado warning has been issued.
Customers then are free to leave the store and those who remain are told to go to a reinforced produce cooler, Weigel said.
"All of that happens in minutes," he said.
Phil Clark, an assistant manager for Kmart, 3106 Iowa St. said his store followed similar procedures.
in severe weather:
- Take shelter immediately. Go to a basement, an interior hallway, or the innestroom room of a building. Get behind or under beige furniture.
- Unplug appliances and stay off the phone. Lightning can strike a power line and enter a home or business through the electrical system.
- Have a first-aid kit, flashlight, candles and a battery-operated radio handy.
- Keep a three-day supply of food, bottled water and medication.
If you are driving, pull over and lay down in a ditch. Make sure you are between your car and the tomato.
If you are outdoors, go to the near est building, ditch or low-lying area. Do not take shelter under a tree.
There is no all-clear siren. You must listen for the all-clear announcement on the radio or television.

"We have an area back in the receiving department that we feel is pretty safe," Clark said. But customers are not forced to stay at the store, he said.
Evan Kluhlmann, manager of Tellers, 746 Massachusetts St., said they listened to the radio. Once a tornado warning has been announced, customers are taken into the rest rooms, which are located in the vault of the building that once was a bank.
"If that vault is full, there's a second one in the basement," Kuhlmann said. "I think it's about the safest place in Lawrence."
Phillips said it was important to be alert
"Don't wait for us to tell you about severe weather," she said. "Use common sense."
Kansas River harmful to health because of sewage backwash
By Susan White
Special to the Kansan
Jumping into the Kansas River from the North Second Street bridge may seem like a good time, but it could be hazardous to one's health.
Heavy rains have caused sewers to back up into the river and contaminate it with human fecal matter, said Myra Strother, a physician at Watkins Memorial Health Center. The sewage contains bacteria that can cause diseases and other health risks to those who come in contact with it.
"The bacteria has caused some people to come down with gastrointestinal infections," Strother said. The infections can cause discomfort to the stomach and intestines.
People also can get infections or tetanus if they have any scratches or open wounds on their bodies, Strother said. Students who have
should be Watched for a tetanus shot
Fecal matter in the sewage can spread diseases such as hepatitis, which damages the liver, Strother said.
"If people come in contact with the contaminated matter they may get really sick," she said. "A few people have come in and said that they just feel ill and have not stomachs," she said.
Barbara Schnutter, director of nurses at the Douglas County Health Department, said bodily harm also could result from swimming in the flood waters.
"There may be objects under the water like a car or post that would injure a person upon diving into the water," she said.
an addition, Schnitker said drowning was a risk because of the strong pull of the drains and the swift moving current of the water.

Two-week-old smoking ban draws mixed reactions
By Lisa Cosmillo
Kansas staff writer
Smokers no longer lean on their desks or sit comfortably in chairs while smoking a cigarette on campus.
A policy banning smoking in campus buildings has been in place for two weeks. Although there have been no official complaints, the smokers said they thought a ban was unfair.
Instead they stand clustered around doorways with cigarettes hanging from their mouths and dangling between their fingers.
"I think it's very discriminatory," said Ruby Anderson, a housekeeper at Strong Hall. "I think everybody's got rights, not just the nonsmokers. They have smoking areas, so nonsmokers don't need to go to
the smoking areas if they are offended by it.
It's not like we're out there blowing smoke in everybody's faces."
Jeannette Johnson, assistant to the executive vice chancellor, said that some smokers had called to express their resentment of the ban, but that no formal complaints had been filed.
"It's taking some getting used to," Johnson said.
A smoking ban went into effect May 17 at the Kansas Union, which is excluded from the campus ban due to its status as an independent corporation.
"We have had people approach us and complain about the politically correct nature of the decision," said Bill Towns, Kansas Union operations manager. "Many people state that it is an abridgment of their rights. We have tried to stress the dangers of second-hand smoke as a rationale for the policy."
John Eye, construction manager at Facilities Planning, agreed.
A not of people have offered praise for the policy, he said.
Towns said it was ironic that many of the buildings on campus were designed with fresh air intake vents next to the doorways where many smokers congregate.
Towns said that although they had not caught anyone smoking in the Union, it was evident that people had not entirely even unsmoking in the building.
"Every building with a central mechanical system would have an external opening that draws air into the building." Eye said. "But this time of year you wouldn't draw much air into the building. I can't imagine very much smoke getting in."
No specific policy has been written to handle grievances regarding smoking, Johnson said.
"There is no special procedure set up," Johnson said. "We would just use the existing policies of the University. We have grievance procedures in place, so if an employee was smoking where they're not supposed to, another employee could bring a grievance through existing procedures."
Students can use the same grievance procedure.
Johnson said she had stopped smoking in her office five years ago. She said that she became accustomed to stepping outside and that she did not smoke in her car.
"It is a public health issue," Johnson said. "We need to do what is appropriate for the majority."

Past weather more intense than 1993
Violent storms are part of city's history
By Carlos Tejada
Kansan staff writer
Margaret Shirk remembered the day was Friday the 13th.
On July 13, 1951, Shirk and her family watched their North Lawrence home from a distance as their chickens, steers, lumber and their neighbors' houses floated away in one of the most devastating floods in local history.
"Everything went down the river," she said. "The water was so treacherous. It's eerie what it can do."
"You're dealing with a lot more water in both 1903 and 1951." he said.
Floods and tornadoes are nothing new to the region, said Steven Jansen, director of Watkins Community Museum. He said the flood that hit Lawrence on Friday was by no means the worst flood in the city's history.
He said the rainfall that culminated with a flood 42 years ago yesterday dumped 16.5 inches of rain in 23 days. The river rose to 30 feet, ifeither higher than its banks. Most of northern Lawrence was completely covered, and the only road out of town was to Topeka.
Jansen said Kansa's system of reservoirs, which regulates the amount of water let into the
Kansas River, had kept such floods from recurring. However, the system will not last forever, because artificial barriers eventually erode.
"They are manmade," he said. "They will fall within 100 years."
Sometimes the river has swelled enough to swallow pieces of land, Jansen said. He said flooding had removed tracts of land southwest of Johnny's Tavern, 401 N. Second St., in the past.
"I've had people show me abstracts of property that doesn't exist anymore," he said.
In the past, Lawrence also has been hit with other forms of violent weather besides floods.
Tornadoes, though less common, have struck Lawrence before, Jansen said. The last time a tornado did any damage to the city was on June 19, 1981. Two tornadoes struck Kmart, 3106 Iowa St., and the Gaslight Village Mobile Home Park across the street.
Philip Rankin, Lawrence resident, was a weather spotters when the tornadoes struck. He said he had been driving to southwest Lawrence to get a better view of the approaching storm when the funnel cloud descended
"All of a sudden, I saw a hundred black bits swirling in front of me," he said.
His car turned over as the tornadoes passed, he said. He managed to radio a warning to the spotter station, but lost an eye to broken glass.
Rankin said he was relieved the tornadoes that struck Friday did not come touch in heavily populated areas.

Floods linked to volcanic activity
By Lisa Cosmillo
Kansan staffwriter
The worst floods in the last 100 years have hit the Midwest within two years of the worst volcanic eruption this century.
Paul Handler, professor of physics at the University of Illinois, does not think this is a "disaster."
Handler cited weather occurrences which showed a distinct pattern between low-latitude volcanic eruptions and weather patterns.
Mount Pinetau in the Philippines erupted in June 1991. It was the worst volcanic eruption in 100 years. Handler said.
A recurring yet unpredictable phenomenon known as El Nino arrived six months later. Within two years, the East Coast had its most devastating winter followed by the Midwest's worst flooding since 1884. Handler said.
According to an article by Handler in The Christian Science Monitor. El Nino is the warming by a few degrees of the water off the coast of Peru. It occurs around Christmas and causing global weather disruptions.
El Chichon, the second-worst volcano erosion in 100 years, erupted in Mexico in 1983, followed by the most intense El Nino and the flooding of the Mississippi.
El Nevada del Ruiz erupted in Colombia. South America in 1985 followed by an El Nino and the California drought.
Handler's research suggests that volcanoes cause El Nino and much of the climate around the world.
El Nino is only one of the climatic changes caused by volcanoes. Handler said.
"Volcanoes shoot sulfur dioxide into the stratosphere (the upper part of the atmosphere 60,000-80,000 feet above the earth). Handler wrote: "That creates a volcanic aerosol' similar to the mist that is emitted by an aerosol can. The suspended droplets reflect the sunlight and shade the earth, depriving the earth of solar energy. Volcanic aerosols encircle the earth within a few months and remain there for years at a time."
Handler explained that this drop in energy and lowered temperatures in the atmosphere caused climatic disruptions.
Based on Handler's theory and his own research, Charlie Perry, research hydrolo-
gist for the U.S. geological research, said that severe and wet weather was likely to continue for another year.
"We've been in this pattern since last fall." Perry said. "Anything that affects warming or cooling of the tropical ocean water will ultimately affect our weather."
David Braaten, assistant professor of physics and astronomy, said there was little doubt that the volcanic eruptions influenced the weather.
Braaten explained that physicists could recreate the Earth's atmosphere in a computer model and disrupt the model to study the effect. However, actual weather involves so many factors that it is impossible to test all of them with the models.
"No one understands the direct connection," he said. "We can measure, for example, Pinatubo's cooling effect. How that relation relates to the weather is the question."
Handler said he did not think long-term patterns in weather were unpredictable.
"If you understand what's going on, you should be able to forecast, and if you don't, then obviously, you can only hindcast." Handler
Expanding bedrock warps Wescoe Hall
Topeka firms to release final recommendations for solutions by Friday
Special to the Kansan
By David Stewart Special to the Kansas
Results from a study conducted this spring by a geological firm concluded that the base of Wescoe Hall had not sunk, but risen.
James Modig, director of Design and Construction Management in Topeka, said an expanding shale foundation beneath Wescoe had shifted and warped the first floor. In some areas of the building, the floor has moved up three to four inches from its original position.
"This isn't a construction or structural failure." Modig said. "The shale is simply rebounding. It is basically lifting the floor up."
This expansion of the bedrock primarily has affected the southeast portion of Wescoe's first floor, causing rippled hallways and warped ceiling tiles.
Modig cited two factors from the study that contributed to the expanding foundation; the release of pressure from the removed topsoil and the shale's clay particles that expanded as they absorbed ground water.
"Because we had to excavate to form the foundation, we took pressure off the shale when we removed the soil above it." Modig said. "With this release of pressure, the shale now has a tendency to expand up."
Modig said that clay in the bedrock's shale had acted like a sponge swollen with ground water coming naturally from the soil and from an existing buried tunnel below Wescoe.
"This tunnel was part of the old Robinson Gymnasium," Modig said. "It's now acting as a reservoir for water to leach into the clay."
The Wescoe foundation study recommended several solutions for keeping the first floor of Wescoe level, including removing and levelling the floor, replacing the dividing walls and keeping the ceiling separate from the building's foundation.
According to the summary, any remedy for this lifting would be short-term since the movement is expected to continue.
Modig he anticipated a recommendation report for addressing this problem by Friday from the engineering firm Finney & Turnipseed and the architectural firm Slemmons Assoc. both of Topeka.
Raymond Moore, professor of civil engineering, said there may not be a permanent solution for the problem.
"You can't really cure the problem of this clay shale," Moore said. "As long as it has a source of water and isn't yet saturated, it will continue to expand."

OPINION
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
IN OUR OPINION
Fifth-year fee increase shouldn't become norm
Oregon and Texas both are considering plans to financially prod students who do not graduate in the traditional four years. In these plans
in the traditional four years. in these plans those who do not get the degree in the eight semesters will pay for it with a tuition increase.
Even though KU officials are not impressed by the plans and have no intention of implementing one like them, the Oregon and Texas plans will set a bad precedent affecting colleges and universities throughout the nation.
An area legislator said only a small percentage of student would be affected, making implementing a policy more trouble than it is worth. Forrest Swall, D-Lawrence, said that if a policy was implemented, it would affect only one percent of the KU population.
Obviously, Swall has not checked the statistics for students who do not graduate in four years.
At KU, only 25 percent of students graduate in eight semesters (four years) and only 50 percent graduate after 10 semesters. The policy would affect more than one percent of students.
Not only did Swall get the statistics wrong, he did not rule the policy out. Swall said that Kansas legislators would be interested in the plan only if the Oregon and Texas plans generated substantially more revenue for these universities.
Swall's comment reflects what the real motivation for this policy is: money. If general tuition increases were not enough, a plan to penalize students for not swiftly moving through college would give higher institutions more revenue.
The plan is only camouflaging a revenue increase as a penalty for students who don't graduate in four years. The policy is particularly scary to students because statistics show that they are not graduating in four years. At KU the reasons for this range from changing majors to the inability to get into required courses. In other words, problems that stem from the University.
Any plan to financially punish students who don't graduate in four years is a bad idea. Students are not getting a degree in that time and it would only take advantage of fifth year seniors. At least a tuition increase affects all students equally and doesn't affect their ability to swiftly get a degree.

INTERNATIONAL PERSPECTIVE
Tokyo summit may be last chance for leaders to save world trade
They will look like giants at the joint photo session in Tokyo, but politically they are all dwarves. Neither Bill Clinton, Helmut Kohl nor Kichi Miyazawa seem capable of hapking their responsibilities now. There is a leadership deficit in the world.
The leaders of the world's seven most powerful nations have so many problems that they will have difficulty in reaching an agreement on the most important issue: to save the world's free trade.
Consumers, managers and union leaders all over the world should be demonstrating on the streets today. The Tokyo summit could be the last chance to prevent a trade war that
would lead to global recession.
The threat has been heard before. But this time it is real. If the Seven in Japan cannot give the economic talks a push forward, new trade barriers will be erected between countries and trading blocs.
The problem with free trade is that it does not win votes for politicians. For weak, indecisive leaders it is easier to continue supporting inefficient sectors at home rather than the more ethereal, global advantages of free trade.

Mike Auchard is a vice president of the Classified Senate and it is his business to publicize complaints and concerns that are brought to his attention. We do not mean to criticize him personally. After all, we may at some point have need of his advocacy.
Nevertheless, his letter is in need of a reply. Jerry Kelch, who has been a janitor on this hill for three decades, tells us that the Custodial Olympics were the first organized attempt to recognize the contribution of the custodial staff to the University community since 1963. If it was not perfect in every way, it was a great deal better than nothing. Day shift and night shift shared the same space at the same time for the first time in recorded history with out the bloodshed we all so confidently expected. We were fed, we were entertained and we were given a chance to laugh with and at one another. If anyone present complained of a lack of eggs in their beer, I for one, didn't hear it.
No matter how spacey we might get – and it can get pretty bad up here at 2 a.m. – I think we can be trusted to distinguish between a human being and water the consistency, after all, is rather different. Aren't we letting our capacity for symbolic interpretation run away with our common sense? I would have to sit in a trash can an awfully long time before I began to confuse myself with trash.
If a person feels demeaned by the fact that he is a junitor, he should find some other line of work. That's simple enough. It might be asked, though, if junitors and economists were to disappear next Tuesday morning, which do you think would be missed first? If a person feels that it is demeaning to be pushed about in a mop bucket, let him attend anyway and watch the rest of us enjoy the fun and games. Even if he could not stoop to throw a wedge at one of his compatriots, he could at least add to the volume of laughter when one of his sad compatriots is truly and fairly hit.
Mike Richardson and Phil Endacott deserve a lot of credit for initiating this unprecedented show of appreciation. The only real defect to the Janitor's Ball was that not EVERYONE attended. Come next year, 'yall - if only to laugh at the rest of you. You missed a fine party.
dinner, it is bad manners to complain of the cooking, it is surely worse to quarrel with a dinner that one did not deign to honor with one's presence.
A great deal of work, imagination,
time and expense went into the
organization of the Custodial
Olympics. If, when one is invited to

Absent janitors miss paid leave
As I write this, I am still trying to grasp the full intent of Mike Auchard's letter. Since I and about 100 other people attended the Appreciation Day, I feel that I'm a little more qualified to speak of the day's activities than Auchard and the people he has so poorly represented in his letter.
Unlike Auchard, prior to this response, I went to the trouble of checking the facts. Source: Phil Endacott and Mary Alexander, KU housekeeping.
I discovered the following:
1. We have 158 employees in housekeeping
2. One hundred KU employees attended
3. We had 65 guests from: The University of Florida
a The University of Iowa b Kansas State University
b. Kansas State University
c. Wichita State University
c. Wichita State University
e. Butler County Community College
f. Representatives from local janitorial services.
4. We had 63 active participants with many others involved in timing, scoring, etc.
Auchard states, "it is curious that the people who chose not to participate were not allowed to go and listen to the 'guest speaker.' This is pure and simple HOGWASH!
From the very beginning it was made clear to all of us custodians that even though we were encouraged to participate in one or more events, if we didn't want to or couldn't, that was OK too.
In spite of this directive from Auchard and Phil Endacott, a number of employees who seemed to be suspicious took the day off as a vacation in order to avoid participating in the Custodial Olympics. Another small percentage chose not to use their vacation time and said they would rather work than participate. Because these people were so adamant, both Phil and Mike allowed them to work.
Needless to say, when I heard of this development, it damn near blew my hat off! I'm not used to hear people call down free food, fun and the opportunity to loaf paid for by the boss!
I strongly suspect that the people who worked are grieving for not receiving the 1 1/2 hours paid administrative leave. They must have felt kind of stupid for not attending. Complaining is the only way they can compensate for this stupidity. You can sure bet there were a number of these people who expressed this thought when it was discovered that people would rather work than play.

COMMENTARY
DOUG HESSE
P. K. S.
'Grandfather recounts era when trees grew in wild
The year is 2015, I just retired from my job, and I'm taking my grandson on a learning experience. We're going to the Natural History museum.
Then we come to a large arboreum.
Al, my grandson, gaps with wonder
and fright as he peers into a large biological mass of leaves and bark.
First we visited the dinosaurs — wondrous beasts that raided the planet for millions of years. The museum's "Arena of the Giants" is a classic Park's a 1900s dinosaur thriller.
"What is it, Grandpa?" he asks in a barely audible voice.
"That." I pause for drama, "is a tree Back when I was a kid these things used to grow all over the place."
"You mean they grew outside" Al asked.
"Of course they did," I said. "That is, up until about 30 years ago. Loggers got what they wanted. Or got what they thought they wanted."
"What do you mean, Grandpa? What are loggers?"
I began to explain the situation that presented itself in the late 1900s. I told him how loggers, the people who cut down trees for use in industry, wanted to cut down as many trees as they could. They wanted unlimited access to the forests. But I told him the logic wasn't there.
"You see. Al the loggers put themselves out of business. They cut so many trees, that none were left, and the destruction they left behind was too much for new trees to handle.
"The loggers didn't realize that. They figured that since they learned their trade from their grandparents... Well, they didn't realize that it couldn't go on forever."
"You see, trees were always touted as renewable resources, but people forget that it takes 80 to 100 years for a tree to mature."
"So these loggers kept cutting until everything was gone?" Alasked.
"Yep. They just wanted their old way of life back and didn't realize that the retraining that the government was offering was better than what the future held for them. Times changed around them, but they just stood still and kept cutting."
"But Grandpa, I remember something from history class that about that same time the United States was asking countries around the equator to stop slashing and burning. Are these what they were slashing and burning?"
"Yes Al the U.S. was intent on other countries saving trees while it cut its own trees into extinction.
"However, early in President Clinton's term, that would be in the early 1990s, the president decided to make it law to save 80 percent of the nation's old growth forests. That was met with protests from the loggers and environmentalists because jobs and trees would be lost.
"Not only did the loggers lose their jobs, but the nation was devoid of trees. It's only in museums, such as this one, that trees can thrive."
Al questioned me about trees all the way home. What lived in them? Why was it that we cut them all down?
All I could do was recount history,
all the time wondering to myself why
and how it had happened.

Flooding continues; relief may be in sight
The Associated Press
Thunderstorms, some with heavy rains and strong, gusty winds, moved through parts of western and southwestern Kansas early yesterday. Showers were also reported in the central portion of the state, and forecasters issued an overnight flood watch for that region.
Pea-size hail, heavy rain and gusts of winds at 55 miles per hour were reported in Hamilton County, west of Syracuse, on Monday night.
Scattered thunderstorms are possible again in the north tonight, but then little or no rain is likely in the state the rest of the week, giving some relief from the long siege of wet weather that has caused severe flooding problems in some areas.
Efforts to recover from the flooding continued on a number of fronts Monday, with Gov. Joan Finney issuing a disaster emergency proclamation for Wyandotte County.
Sen. Bob Dole asked Agriculture Secretary Mike Espy for disaster aid in Kansas, saying as many as 55 counties have suffered from the rain.
The rain was enough to make streams rise again in central Iowa, where flooding had begun to recede after Sunday's record levels, threatening efforts to restore drinking water to more than 250,000 people in Des Moines and its suburbs.
"This is an extremely dangerous situation," the National Weather Service
Officials asked 3,500 people in West Des Moines and nearby areas of Des Moines to evacuate — the same 3,500 asked to leave Sunday.
"Mother Nature did not deal us a very favorable hand today." West Des Moines Mayor Dino Rodish said. "We've got a critical situation."
Along Missouri's section of the Mississippi River, all or parts of river towns from Alexandria, near the Iowa line, to Cape Girardeau in southeast Missouri — some 250 miles — have been hit. An estimated 15,000 people were out of their homes.
President Bill Clinton said he would visit the region today.
About 6,500 National Guard members were on duty in Iowa, Illinois and Missouri, where some 30,000 people were flooded out of their homes.
The flooding was linked to at least 19 deaths, 13 in Missouri. The Red Cross said more than 7,600 homes were damaged or destroyed in Minnesota, Wisconsin, South Dakota, Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri and Illinois.
Earthquake in Japan leaves at least 65 dead
OKUSHIRI Japan — Weeping villagers searched for missing relatives yesterday after an earthquake slammed tidal waves into coasts as far away as Russia and South Korea. The Monday quake measuring 7.8 on the Richter scale killed at least 65 people on Okushiri, a small island in the Sea of Japan.
NATION/ WORLD BRIEFSE
Ashes smoldered in the remains of hundreds of wooden houses destroyed by fire and waves on the island. A house, one of many washed away by tidal waves, could be seen floating out to sea.
"This is terrible and it is so sad," said Japan's Prime Minister Kichi Miyazawa, who traveled to the stricken region.
Police said 65 people in the region were killed. 82 were missing and 72 were injured. Kyodo News Service reported 71 dead and 169 missing.
On nearby Hokkaido, Japan's third most populous island, tidal waves more than 12 feet high smashed villages, buckled roads and sucked cars out to sea with some occupants thought to be still inside.
In Russia, three people were reported missing after tidal waves up to 16 feet high washed ashore in Nakhdokha, near Vladivostok, a civil defense official told the Interfax news agency.
Hussein's refusal may result in attack by U.S.
Wednesday, July 14, 1993
The Security Council president says Iraq is "playing with fire" by not cooperating with U.N. weapons inspectors, and a senior U.N. envoy is heading to Iraq to drive that point home.
Rolf Keke, chairman of the U.N. commission on Iraq's weapons, prepared to leave New York for Baghdad yesterday, giving Saddam Hussein a final warning that he is risking a U.S. military attack by not cooperating.
Russia gave its strong backing yesterday, urging Iraq in a Foreign statement to "put an end without delay to its tactics of evasion" with the U.N. Security Council."
Iraq was one of the Soviet Union's main allies in the Middle East until former President Mikhail Gorbachev ended the Kremlin's confrontational stance toward the West and joined U.N. sanctions against several nations.
Security Council diplomats made clear the United Nations may have to destroy two rocket test sites near Baghdad if Iraq persists in preventing U.N. inspectors from installing video monitors there.
President Bill Clinton said he would leave the issue up to the United Nations for now.

Peter Snyder, Sterling graduate student, has been volunteer teering for Lawrence Habitat for Humanity for two months. The group is working on houses at 17th and Harper streets.
KU students help construct Habitat for Humanity homes
By Todd Puntney
Kansan staff writer
The Lawrence Habitat for Humanity builds house when it builds houses.
The group builds houses for families that, for whatever reason, cannot afford their own homes.
"We build homes for people who can't go to a bank and get a loan," said Brother Benignus, construction manager for the group. "Usually, families have a hard time accepting it, at first, that someone's going to do this for them. We do this because everyone deserves a home."
After the house is built and the family moves in, Habitat for Humanity gives the a 20-year mortgage to pay for the cost of materials. The group makes no profit.
"Additionally, the family has to put in 350 hours of work on the house before they get it." Brother Benignus said. That includes helping with the construction, painting or cleaning up at the end of a work day.
The group, which has been in Lawrence for four years, is working on its seventh and eighth houses at 17th and Harper streets. Although there were no arrests, three houses a year were a constraint.
"Last year we only built one home," he said. "With money and all the materials and labor, it takes time to get it all coordinated."
Donations from the community provide money for materials. Brother Benjamin said his group asked for at least $35 a home from each donor.
"that's the average price of a hotel room," he
Most of the labor comes from volunteers from churches, KU students or people who just stop by. Some labor that requires extensive experience — such as plumbing or electrical wiring — is contracted to professionals.
said.
"Every once in a while a group will say they've got a lot of kids who would like to help." Brother Benignus said. "The Governor's Academy at KU came out earlier this month, dug the driveway and poured the cement."
A handful of people usually help during the week, while dozens can show up on the weekends he said.
Brother Benignus said the group could always use more help, especially if volunteers bring their own tools. Volunteers can show up at the construction site from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Monday through Thursday or 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Saturday.
Jason Gilbert, Topeka junior, said he volunteered at the group's office at Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread Ave. He also helps build the houses.
"It makes me feel useful," Gilbert said. "I think it's important for people to do volunteer work that provides a service to the community."
Although it takes a lot time and patience to build a house. Brother Benignus said it was the right thing to do.
"It's a lot of work," he said. "You get burned out, you get frustrated and sometimes you wonder what you're doing this for. But once you're done, once the home belongs to the family, you really enjoy it."
Lawrence sees new merchants despite economy
By Katie Greenwald
Kansan staff writer
The state of the economy has not kept new businesses from sprouting in Lawrence.
Restaurants, discount stores and clothing stores are among the new businesses that are opening in Lawrence.
Mike O'Donnell, director of the Small Business Development Center in the School of Business, said Lawrence and the surrounding area had been insulated from some of the economic problems the rest of the nation was facing.
there will be a need for more businesses to provide goods and services." he said.
O'Donnell said Lawrence attracts many people from the surrounding area.
"Geographically, it is the right place to be," he said.
"Because the population is growing,
Some new businesses agree that Lawrence has been good to them so far
"We've been really surprised," he said.
Michael Huntington, bartender at the Red Lyon Tavern, 944 Massachusetts St., said business had been good.
said she thought that once the Red Lyon Tavern started serving food, in a couple of weeks, business would get even better.
Judy Bower, manager of the tavern.
Bill Scott, a manager at Applebees, 2520 Iowa St., said this was the corporation's biggest venture into a college town.
"From a business point of view, we recognized an opportunity in Lawrence," he said. "Plus, it's just a great town. We've exceeded our initial expectations."
Katie Murray, manager of Molly McGee's, 2429 Iowa St., said Applebee's has not taken much business away from her establishment.

Lack of toxic waste dump leaves University in lurch
By Carlos Tejada
Kansan staff writer
The test tubes, paper napkins and used rubber gloves found in yellow barrels in Burt Hall—the building that houses a doctor—do not look particularly dangerous.
However, they are low-level radioactive waste from labs at the University of Kansas. Because of recent problems with disposal facilities, the barrels may stay for quite some time, said Mike Russell, KU's environmental health and safety officer.
"We haven't really figured it out 100 percent vet." he said.
Robert Harder, secretary of the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, said KU had shipped its radioactive waste to a landfill in Barnwell, S.C., as part of the Central States Compact. However, on July 1 the compact — between Kansas, Arkansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Louisiana — was denied permission by South Carolina to ship its waste to Barnwell.
Harder said that Kansas and its
waste producers, including KU, the KU Med Center and Wolf Creek Nuclear Power Plant, now had no place to store waste.
"Kansas will have to do some problem-solving," he said.
Michael Lemon, KU radiation safety officer, said the university had several options for dealing with the waste. The best was to build a storage facility on West Campus for the 15 to 20 years of waste KU produces each year. The same radioactive waste would then be stored until the radiation wears away.
"We'll wait until the activity no longer exists," Lemon said.
He said most of KU's radioactive waste only had a six week half-life, so the amount of radioactive contamination would decrease by half every six weeks until no more radioactivity remained.
KU was to have shipped its waste to a disposal facility the compact was building in Boyd County, Neb. Harder said. However, the future of the site has become uncertain because of environmental concerns of Nebraska officials.
Steve Moller, policy research analyst for Nebraska governor Ben Nelson, said the state departments of Health and Environment had filed an intent-to-deny motion to keep the facility from being built for environmental reasons.
Charles Zidko, co-chairperson of Save Boy County, said the state's concerns were justified. He said the proposed site stood over a fresh water supply and was only forty miles downstream from the Missouri River. Such conditions violate Nuclear Regulatory Commission guidelines.
"It doesn't meet the conditions,
plain and simple." Zidko said.
He also said the compact and its contractor, U.S. Ecology, ignored a referendum in which more than 50 percent of Boyd County registered voters decided against building a waste facility.
"I don't think this is acceptable in any business," he said.
Steve Seglin, a lawyer for U.S. Ecology, denied the facility would cause an environmental hazard.
"U.S. Ecology is a responsible, professional company" he said
Task force to survey KU child care needs
Kansan staff report
A task force appointed last spring is preparing to survey the University of Kansas community's child care needs. Phone surveying will begin early this fall.
The 24-member task force, composed of Lawrence residents, KU faculty and students, was appointed by Ede Meyen, executive vice chancellor, to explore long-range child needs for the Lawrence campus.
"People know we need child care," said Ann Eversole, director of the Organizations and Activities Center and chair of the task force. "And we generally know we need infant and toddler care, but we don't know how much
Eversole said the telephone survey would sample a variety of students, both with children and without.
Eversole stressed that the child care task force expected to see results from the survey by spring
The task force is meeting twice this summer.

Renegade theater brings comedy to city
Skits offer parodies, goofiness
By Todd Puntney Kansas staff writer
The East Side Comedy Shop is an R-rated dinner theater without the meal.
"We have one rule for comedy," said Doug Delaney, manager of Lawrence's only comedy club. "It's funny we do it. And sometimes we do stuff just because there's nothing redeemable about it."
The club is part of the two-year-old Renegade Theater Company, a group that produces material written by local artists. Originally concentrating on normal, serious plays, the theater shifted direction in January, when the East Side Comedy Shop opened at 518 E. Eighth St. Since then, audiences have been coming for the humor.
The 40-member group presents a new production every month. In the spirit of comedy shows such as "Saturday Night Live" or "Second City TV," the East Side Comedy Shop runs
skits with names like "Paranoid Boy," "Gynecology Today," or "Booger King."
In "Field of Beans," a troubled KU football coach is instructed by a far-off angelic voice:
"If you plant them, they will fart."
One can almost hear a cymbal crash or the atonal honk-honk of a bicycle horn.
The comedy, like the name of the theater, is renegade
"One thing we don't want is a set style," Delaney said. "We don't want to do all narody or slantstick."
The building looks more like a cheap dive than a place where shows sell out weeks in advance. Inside, the 65-seat theater is dark and black.
"It's just a traditional black-box theater," Delaney said. "You're only supposed to pay attention to the stage, and that's where we keep all the color."
An average show can have nine or 10 writers and about 20 skits.
Audiences seem to like it, too. Delaney said
"People come out after the show and say that it's better than 'Saturday Night Live'," he said.
Shawn Trimble, Topeka graduate student and actor at the club, agreed and said audiences had enjoyed the diversity of previous shows.
doing, they know another one will come along in a couple of minutes." Trimble said. "And there's a wide range of humor so that they always find something they like, from intellectual comedy to being just plain goofy."
Trumble is director of the current production, "Sex, Violence, and Chicken Boy," which runs at 8 p.m. every Friday and Saturday from July 16 to 31
Although some of the actors have had previous experience or are working on master's degrees in theater at KU, most of the comedy comes from theater members who have had little experience.
"One of our most prolific writers had never written a skit before." Delaney said. "And that's usually the case."
Delaney said that the theater was still funny regardless of experience and that the demand for the club had sent him looking for a bigger place, which he would prefer to be on Massachusetts Street.
"People told me that if I were going to pull a stunt like this, I should do it in Lawrence," Delaney said. "And they're right. I've done theater in other towns, and Lawrence is probably the most accepting."
Tickets for the productions cost $4.

Computers make global friendships
Networks bring people together with keyboards
By Carlos Tejada
By Carlos Tejada
Kansan staff writer
Instead of watching television when he gets home from Poway High School in San Diego, Arif Malik likes to plug into his computer and bubble
"It's better than television," he said, or typed, from his computer terminal. "And I get to meet the coolest people."
Many afternoons, Malik logs into the computer bulletin board service run by the Iowa Student Computer Association at the University of Iowa. Once in, he is known as Fugazi, the name of one of his favorite rock bands, and is suddenly completely separate from his face, voice and body. Anyone logged onto the bulletin board would have nothing to judge him but expect the messages he types to them.
Malik said he had no problem with such a system.
bulletin board's sign of humor and goodwill. :)
--ting them as you do in real life."
The bulletin board has a "room" called Babble. Malik said he liked to enter the room and talk nonsense with complete strangers.
"I think it's neat because in real life you get a first impression on the way people look," he said. "Here, you judge them on their personality, which is what your friends should be based on."
"I talk with all the people and do silly things," he said.
He ended his sentence with a "grinny," the
As computers become more popular in U.S. households, so do computer networks, said Charles Rezac, a consultant at KU's computer center.
"The Internet just started as a small network and took off." Ozac said.
He said the Internet, the world's largest computer network, was simply a set of wires and cables that connected computers across the nation. However, for those who use it, the Internet is far more. Computer users see the Internet as a vast highway on which one can gather information.
"There is a great deal of information out there," Rezac said. "It's fun actually navigating around looking for information."
The entire library catalogs of the country's major universities, including KU's, can be found on the Internet without much trouble.
Some computer users are after more than information, however. They turn to the Internet and other networks for personal relationships that Rezac said were different from any face-to-face relationship.
"When you communicate with people electronically, the interaction is very different," he said. "Everything you use to judge people normally isn't there."
Gordan Gasparovic, a sophomore at the University of Tasmania in Australia, said the differences were welcome.
"People seem more honest," said Gasparovic, who calls himself Asparagus on the bulletin board. "I guess you don't fear upsetting them as you do in real life."
In the Internet
Oread accounts are free to all KU students and are available at the consulting window in the computer center, but even people without an account can enter the internet center at 864.0449 for the correct modem number for their modern type.

Communication often takes place on computer bulletin boards, where computer users from all parts of the world gather and post messages to each other. They divide the subjects of discussion into electronic rooms, where people with similar interests can gather.
Rooms like Babble.
Malik and Gasparovic both said they liked the room.
"Babble is where you talk to the whole room instead of one-on-one." Gasparovic said. "It's fun. A lot of people play characters in there."
Howard Sypher, head of communication studies at KU, said such acting was one of many reasons real communication could not be achieved on a computer. He said friends he talked to on his computer and later met were inevitably different from the impressions they
made from their computer terminals.
"The way people are really like is the way they are face to face," he said.
He said acting is a natural offshoot of computer interaction, where typed words are the only medium.
"It's a very safe way to act out certain fantasies he said. 'It's anonymous.'
He also said such communication had other benefits
"Maybe people who have difficulty in face-to-face encounters may find this a positive way to interact with other people," he said.
Ray Dillinger, Lawrence resident and systems operator of the local bulletin board Electric Dreams, said he disagreed. He said the acting on computer was no different from the acts people put on in real life.
"People do that 24 hours a day," he said. "With bulletin boards, you have a different way to do it."
He said people used other means, such as typing speed, as indirect communication. He said people who were uncomfortable with a subject tended to type more slowly.
"When the guy who you know can type 60 words per minute types 30 or 40 you go, 'oh no I'd better tread lightly.' Dillinger said.
Computer relationships may not be for everybody, however, said Ellen Kaler, Lawrence graduate student. She said she taught her English 203 class. Representations of Gender, that computer interaction could be a means of neutralizing gender.
But she also saw a possible fault with the means.
"I would not want electronic communication to eliminate face-to-face communication," she said.
Play aims at AIDS education on campus
'The Inner Circle' scheduled to open during Hawk Week
By Lisa Cosmillo
Kansan staff writer
An innovative approach to AIDS education opens in August when a group of students step onto the stage in a production of "The Inner Circle," a play designed to raise awareness of the disease.
Phoebe Zimmerman, Wichita senior and director of the play, said this project had been her passion for seven years after a high school friend died of AIDS. She is doing the play as a class project.
Zimmerman said that students must be educated about the risks they may face at college.
Janine Demo, coordinator of health education at Watkins Health Center, said one in 500 college students is estimated to be infected with the HIV virus, the virus that leads to AIDS. Demo will educate the cast of the play about AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases.
10 assume that students are ever not going to do something is ridiculous," Zimmerman said. "You should assume that they will and arm them the best that you can, and they will make the choices past that."
AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases
The play is about a young man who gets AIDS
from using intravenous drugs, Zimmerman said.
banana.
"I hate to keep calling it AIDS education. It makes it sound like something where you have to sit down and pay attention," Zimmerman said. "The play is good in and of itself."
Zimmerman said that she thought this was an important part of the program, and that if the play had not included that scene, she would have written one herself.
Zimmerman did not want to put on a play that portrayed a homosexual man with AIDS. She said it would further the misconception that a certain group of people are singled out by the disease.
She said the play includes a lesson on condom usage, showing how to put a condom on a
"I just think it's about time it becomes a curriculum type of thing." Zinnmerman said. "I would like to see it done every year during freshman education as an introduction to college life."
This fall a new peer education program administered by the Center for Sexual Health will begin at the University of Kansas. Demo is training students as peer counselors for the program. The students will go to different forums and discuss health issues with their
Patrick Dilley, head of the Center for Sexual Health Advisory Board, said he believed Zimmerman's play would be an effective method of educating people about AIDS.
"In terms of getting the information across and making it more relevant, it's more effective than just giving someone a brochure." Dilley said.
There will be a facilitator present at each performance to take questions from the audience or to start a discussion on the topic. Diller
Auditions for "The Inner Circle" will be held today and tomorrow at 7 p.m. in 209 Murphy Hall.
The play will be presented as a part of Hawk Week on Aug. 19 at Hashinger Hall, Aug. 21 at Oliver Hall and Aug. 28 at the Inge Theatre in Murphy Hall.

Unusual hits help American League
The Associated Press
BALTIMORE — The American League found a crack at Camden Yards.
The nooks and crannies of baseball's most popular park swallowed up home runs by Kirby Puckett and Roberto Alomar, and even a double by Ivan Rodriguez, to help the Americans to their sixth straight All-Star victory, 9-3, last night.
AL manager Cito Gaston got big efforts from Alomar and Devon White. But NL manager Bobby Cox saw his players out-performed by Toronto's. John Ssmoltz threw a pair of run-scoring wild pitches and David Justice and Jeff Blauer made errors that set up runs.
Yards and the 100th sellout since the stadium opened last year, got to admire some of the stadium's quirky, old-time features.
A crowd of 48,147,the largest at Camden
Gary Sheffield's two-run homer in the first inning off Mark Langston landed barely inside the oddly angled left-field wall, just over the Crown gasoline sign. Puckett's homer over the center-field fence settled into the middle of a small sod farm, shy of the ivy-covered backdrop.
But, with the smoke from Boog Powell's barbecue stand beginning to billow up from Eutaw Street in right, in front of the BBQ warehouse, the most unusual hit in recent All-Star play came in the fifth inning.
The score was tied at 2 when Rodriguez led off against John Burkett with a line drive to left field. Barry Bonds ran back, and could only hit a ground ball in the padded fence for a ground-rule double.
Puckett earned Most Valuable Player honors for the first time in his career.
Sampson, Scott play for U.S. basketball squads
Kansan staff report
Two Kansas basketball players have helped lead their respective teams to success in international competition.
Charisse Sampson, a sophomore guard for the Kansas women's team, helped a squad of college players earn a bronze medal in the R. William Jones Cup, held in Taipei, Taiwan. Kansas men's team senior forward Richard Scott is helping the World University Game's team coast through the preliminary rounds by an average margin of victory more than 20 points.
Sampson averaged 7.9 points per game for the U.S. team, which lost its first (two) games in the tournament.
The U.S. defeated Russia 71-69 in the bronze medal game July 4 and finished the tournament with a 5-2 record.
Sampson averaged 21 minutes a game and led all team members in steals with 20. She also averaged 5 rebounds a game.
She led the U.S. in scoring once and rebounding twice during the team's seven games. She shot 42.5 percent from the floor and 60 percent from two-point range. She was 13 of 20 from the free-throwline.
Sampson was a Big Eight Conference Honorable Mention selection during her freshman season last year.
At the World University Games, Scott led the U.S. men's basketball team to a 93-64 victory against Ireland.
Scott led the United States with 21 points on 8-for-9 shooting from the field and a perfect 5 of 14 at the free throw line. Carlos Rogers of Tennessee State added 13 points and Sharone Wright of Clemson had 11.
"We have to be pleased with the outcome," Ireland coach Enda Bert said. "It was a decent test for the United States."
Frank Powell, who played at Holy Cross and is one of eight American college players on the Irish roster, finished with 17 points.
The U.S. team is now 3-0 in the competition and the favorite to win the gold medal

Racer dies after helicopter crash
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Davey Allison, who followed in his father's racing footsteps and became a star in his own right on the NASCAR circuit, died today of injuries suffered a day earlier in a helicopter crash.
Allison, 32, was pronounced dead at 7 a.m. CDT of massive head injuries after the crash of the helicopter he was piloting, said David Smitherman, a spokesman for Carraway Methodist Medical Center.
Allison made his racing debut in 1985, finishing 10th in the Talladale 500. He has since won three of NASCAR's 'Big Four' races, the Daytona 500, Winston 500 and Coca-Cola 600; was 24th on the all-time win list with 19 victories and 10th in career wins with $8.7 million. He finished third in the standings the last two years and was fifth at the time of his death.

Governor takes to campus airwaves
Finney discusses tuition increase re-election hopes
THE SCHOOL CITY CHANNEL
By Susan White Special to the Kansan
Doug Hesse / KANSAN
Gov. Joan Finney hit the airwaves Monday on KJIK, the University of Kansas' student radio station, for an hour-long talk show.
rinney responded to questions posed by Jason McIntosh, the host of the show, and callers.
Meltniosh asked Finney what she thought her chances were of being voted into office again during next year's election.
Gov. Joan Frenn talks with a caller Monday during Jason McIntosh's talk on KJHK, the University of Kansas' student radio station. McIntosh, Lawrence senior, invited Frenn to on the show.
Although she said she was uncertain whether she would run again, Finney said she felt her chances for re-election would be high.
"I knew I would be nominated before. I knew I would be elected," she said. "I know if I run I will be re-elected."
Finney said she maintained the support of her followers by working closely with them.
"I have tremendous faith in the people of Kansas," she said.
A caller questioned Finney about planned increases in tuition at KU.
Finney said tuition increases were a problem that she has been working on.
"It really concerns me that students will not have enough money to pay for their education," she said. "Education is the fundamental answer to every-
thing."
McIntosh asked Finney what she thought was in store for future generations.
"The young people create changes in the government and history," Finney said. "If we don't keep up with
the changes in history and government, we won't keep up with the times. Unfortunately, the next generations will be paying their and our social security."
One of the final questions Finney dealt with was how she handled negative feedback regarding her performance
Finney said she tried to interact with people as much as possible so that she could hear their feelings first-hand. It allows her to do her best to respond to their complaints, she said.

Commission hears plight of flood victims
By Katie Greenwald Kansan staff writer
North Lawrence residents and business owners last night voiced their concerns to the City Commission about the city's handling of recent flooding.
rusty Thomas, North Lawrence resident and vice president of State Radiator, Inc. , 613 N. Second St., told commissioners that she appreciated the way the city staff handled the disaster. She said she was glad that Commissioner Bo Moody and other county officials attended a meeting that residents held Monday night at Johnny's Tavern, 401 N. Second St.
"It gave residents and business owners an opportunity to vent some of their frustration that had been buildup over the weekend in a more positive manner." Thomas said.
Thomas said she wanted to make the commissioners aware of issues that concerned North Lawrence residents, such as needed improvements of drainage systems. She also said she thought the city should do something to keep people up to date about emergency situations.
In response, Mayor John Nalbandan decided to hold briefings at 10 a.m. every day until the current situation is resolved. Nalbandan said he also planned to do that for future emergency situations.
Thomas said the meetings would help business owners know exactly what was happening.
"There were so many rumors float
ing around that we needed to separate the fact from the fiction," she said.
Others were not as pleased with the city's handling of the situation.
Gerald Pine, manager of Howard Pine's Garden Center and Green Houses, 1320 N. Third St., said his business was fortunate. Though the waters spared his business, Pine said he was unhappy about how the city was dealing with the situation.
He said that if the city was going to allow the construction of multi-million dollar buildings, such as a shopping mall, then the drainage problems could not continue.
"We can't have this kind of flooding," he said. "Right now, we've got a dirty section of town, a stinking, dirty section. The grass rots. The sewage
seeps into the flood waters.'
"We didn't get a lot of answers," he said.
Frank Male, a North Lawrence resident, also was unhappy with what he thought was slow action on the city's part. He said he thought the meeting at Johnny's Tavern was unsuccessful.
Mike Wildgen, city manager, said there was nothing the city could do to make people feel better.
"They're mad and they're upset, and there's nothing we can say that's going to change that," he said.
Wildgen also said that people had to realize that North Lawrence was not the only place with problems.
"They had one of the worst problems, but we had problems all over town," he said.

Kansas River flooding could get worse
River brings memories of 1951 flood
Kansan staff writer

Aptaining hanging on the wall in the Lawrence Riverfront Plaza shows happier times; the Plaza on a sun-lit day with a restrained Kansas River gurgling farply along its banks.
The window beside it tells a different story.
Since Monday afternoon, the foaming river has swallowed its banks and completely submerged Burcham Park, located on the south bank. Workers at the mall spent that afternoon sandbagging entrances along the promenade on the north side of the mall and roping off the west end of the promenade, where waves lapped over the edge and sprayed onlookers.
Paula Phillips, director of emergency preparedness for Douglas County, said the water rose to 21 feet on Monday at the water-measuring station in Lecompton, ten miles upstream. Flood level is 17 feet.
While the river was down to about 18 feet yesterday afternoon, Phillips said the river would rise again tomorrow to about 21 feet.
Rod Brebmy, assistant city manager, said the rising water posed little danger to lives and property but was still unpredictable.
"We don't know what another two or three feet will do to the south side of the river, but we know the north
side with the levee is absolutely safe," he said.
Larry Crump, a spokesperson for the Army Corps of Engineers in Kansas City, Mo., said the reason for the high level of the river could be found 80 miles upstream. The high amounts of rain the state has received this year have completely filled the reservoirs at Milford Lake, near Junction City, and Tuttle Creek, near Manhattan. Crump said the Corps had decided to release 22,500 cubic feet of water per second from Milford and 22,000 cubic feet per second from Tuttle Creek.
The children are looking out across the river.
Crump said that the amount of water released from Milford had been cut down to 10,000 cubic feet per second because of soil erosion at a point near the Milford dam. The result was a lower water level yesterday and today. Once the area is reinforced with stone, the original rate of release will be restored and the river will rise again to about 21 feet.
He said he did not know whether the river would rise even more but would not dismiss the possibility.
"Once we start the flows again, they will probably continue throughout the rest of the month," he said.
"More water is coming down, and we don't have those readings," he said.
Bill Seckington, an Ottawa resident who lived in Lawrence during the flood of 1851, said he had not seen the river so high since the flood more than 40 years ago.
"The first impression is that it looks more like an ocean, with waves and whitecaps, than the old Kansas River," he said.

North Lawrence businesses lose about $1.2 million
By Carlos Tejada Kansan staff writer
Wilma Gates, resident of the Jaya-hawk Motel, 1044 North Third St., surveyed the damage that three feet of flood water did to her apartment.
Wet compact discs and saggy tapes litter the floor. Her furniture smells of raw sewage. The carpet squishes with each step. The worst part for her, however, is the photo album that now contains only strips of colored paper.
"Every time I go in there, I cry," she said of her apartment where she has lived for two-and-a-half years.
North Lawrence's water level has receded since the recent flooding, but the emotions of residents and businesses have not. While some have praised relief efforts, others say Lawrence officials have not acted with speed or forethought in dealing with the flood.
Maxine Kinker, co-owner of Roger's Food Center, 608 North Second St., said the Lawrence City Commission's response to the flood was an example of the second-class status many give to North Lawrence.
"I feel like North Lawrence has been a stepchild long enough for this city," she said. "I've never had to work so hard to get people's attention."
She said many basic services in North Lawrence, including sewage systems and road repair, have been ignored. She said the city's treatment of the crater on the south side of the North Second Street underpass was only one example.
According to the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce and the Douglas County Emergency Preparedness office, North Lawrence businesses lost $1.2 million in damages and lost revenue due to road closures. Kinker said the loss revenue was the larger part of the $50,000 her store lost in the flood.
Ruth Cheek, manager of Fisca Oil Co. Inc., 740 North Second St., also said North Lawrence was treated as a second-class part of the city.
"We're considered a slum area," she said. "North Lawrence slum rats."
However, she said she was satisfied with the commission's treatment of the flood.
Bob Moody, city commissioner,
said accusations of a lack of concern
for North Lawrence were unfair. He
said the commission already had
voted to spend about $2 million to
improve streets and to bring in pumping
equipment to deal with such a
flood before the flood occurred.
"If almost $2 billion in improvements is neglect, then I don't think we can please those people," he said.
He also said those who complained about the commission's lack of forethought should question whether they themselves were insured against flooding.
Kinser said she was not insured and that her current insurance company did not offer flood coverage. She said her former company charged too much for insurance premiums and only covered $10,000 in damages. She such coverage was too small for a business like Roger's.
Rusty Thomas, owner of State Radiator Inc. 613 North Second St., said some businesses simply felt lucky to have survived.
"We lost business Monday morning," she said. "But we didn't lose our lives, I guess we're lucky."

Phelps protests homosexuality; disrupts nuptials
Jay Henderson, left, camp minister for the First United Methodist Church, 946 Vermont St., listens as the Rev. Fred Phieps of Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka discusses his views on homosexuality.
By Todd Puntney
Kansan staff writer
Puffing nervously on a cigarette and noticeably shaking, Molly Price was an angry bride on her wedding day.
With a cold, hard stare she watched about 15 protesters waving signs outside Danforth Chapel Saturday reading "No flags in Heaven," "No tears for queers" and "God gave fags up."
But the only connection between her wedding and the protest, led by the Rev. Fred Phelps and members of the Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, was timing.
rice's wedding was scheduled an hour and a half before a memorial service for Greg Barker, a former KU student who died from AIDS complications last month.
But because a state law prohibits demonstrations one hour before and after a memorial service, Phelps, an
anti-homosexual activist, pickedet during Price's wedding.
"They have the right to do this, but why do that have to do this at my wedding?" Price said.
repeated requests from the wedd-
ding party, passing cars with drivers
hurtling insults at the picketers, and a
minor scuffle that was broken up by
KU police not budge Phelps.
"Maybe they ought not to schedule a wedding on the same day they're going to have a fag funeral." Phelps said. "But this is a wonderful way to start any decent Bible wedding, with a lot of good Bible preaching about the home, which is God hates fags. The bride is happy to have us here."
Price said she was far from happy.
"This is my day. Why did they have to ruin it for me?" Price said. "This is the only thing that went wrong with my wedding."
Phelps said he was picketing the memorial service because it was being held three weeks after Barker's death on June 30.
"This guy died of AIDS, and; they had a quiet funeral on July 3. We don't bother utility funerals," he said. "But they're making a propaganda epic out of this dead piece of human flesh. This
even a memorial service for that fag — this is just a living fag propaganda ploy."
Jay Henderson, campus minister at the First United Methodist Church, 946 Vermont St., led the memorial service.
"Memorial services are held after the burial," Henderson said. "This is an opportunity for friends in Lawrence, who were unable to attend the funeral because it was out of town, to gather and share in their grief and sorrow."
Henderson said he wanted people to know that most pastors treated people with care and compassion.
"I'm ready to do what I'm called to do, which is to proclaim the good news of resurrection and eternal life," he said.
Henderson approached Phelps, who lectured him for about five minutes.
"Id like to tell you, sir, that people like this deceased, living a life predicated on lies, engaged in the riskiest conduct known to man or beast, played Russian roulette with all the chambers full of bullets, and he lost." Phelps said.

Minority pupils launched into science
By Susan White Special to the Kansan
The countdown began, the rocket launched, and the cluster of people went crazy.
The group was not watching a shuttle liftoff at Kennedy Space Center, but one of several rockets launched Thursday by 14 Lawrence junior high students involved in the Minorities/Women Pre-College Engineering Enrichment Program. The KU-sponsored program runs July 6 to July 30.
Before building their rockets, the students learned about rocket theory with the aid of regular household items such as balloons, soda cans and water rockets, said John Valaske, Lawrence graduate teaching assistant and instructor of the science part of the program.
The students have been taking daily classes on science, mathematics, computer skills and study skills, along with engineering seminars. The classes are part of an engineering enrichment program for junior high students.
Valasek divided the students into three groups: the Alphas, the Betas and the Gammas. The groups took turns doing different jobs. One group launched its rockets, another group recorded the altitudes of the rockets, and the third group retrieved the rockets.
Valsake said the project was constructed to improve the students' understanding of rocket theory and physics.
"We want the students to take a hands-on approach to learning, with a little bit of science and physics at a level they can understand," he said.
rorenice Boldridge, director and organizer of the program, said the program was designed to encourage female and minority students who are entering the eighth grade to take an early interest in science and math.
"What research is finding is that these students are turned off by math and science at the junior high school level." Boldridge said.
level. Boldridge selected the students for the program by talking to counselors at Lawrence junior high schools. African-American, Hispanic, Native-American and Asian students who liked math and science were targeted for the program.
program.
In addition to attending classes, the students take field trips every Friday. They have visited the General Motors plant in Kansas City and the Kansas Cosmosphere and Space Center in Hutchinson. On July 23 they will visit the Lawrence water treatment plant.
Boldridge said she sent three proposals to the department of engineering to get funding for the minorities program. She received enough money to fund the program for this summer and next summer.
ragar aazaiar, West Junior High School student, said she liked the setup of the program.
"It's very educational and fun," she said. "There are not really any bosses, so it is not boring."
Mohanboldridge, West Junior High School student said the program was challenging.

KU Parkinson's research earns $500,000
Med Center gets grant
By Dan England Kansan staff writer
William Koller, who directs Parkinson's research at the University of Kansas Medical Center, is proud of the teamwork he and his scientists have accomplished.
"We have studied Parkinson's for a
long time, and I think our team approach is what has made us one of the top research programs in the country." Koller said.
Last week the American Parkinson Disease Association showed that it agreed with Koller. By giving the research team a $500,000 grant, the association bestowed the Med Center with an honor only three other university medical schools across the nation received.
"KU's team of researchers is one of the finest in the country," said Kimberly Kirkland Seidman, the association's West Coast director.
Seidman said KU was one of the few
that had a substantial amount of research about recent issues of the disease.
The grant will be awarded in $100,000 increments during the next five years. The association's board of directors, with more than 20 scientists and doctors renowned for their work in the Parkinson's field, votes on who will receive the grant, she said.
The board bases the decision on the university's research and accomplishments in the field, Seidman said. Other centers financed by the association are Emory University in Atlanta, Robert Wood Johnson University in
New Brunswick, N.J., and Oregon Health Sciences University in Portland, Ore.
Kollar said the grant was not much money for research. Some grants can total $10 million. But this grant can be used for whatever the team needs, unlike some grants, which require research on one topic.
"I wouldn't say it's a lot of money, but it's not peanuts, even for research," he said. "And the flexibility the grant offers is a major blessing."
Parkinson's disease affects more than 1 million Americans. Although it is most common in the elderly, it can strike people in their 20s or 30s.
The condition occurs when certain brain cells, called the substantia nigra, are damaged. These cells produce dopamine, an important substance that aids in the transmission of nerve impulses in the brain.
Symptoms of the disease progress from fatigue and weakness in the early stages to tremor, slow body movement and near-total loss of movement control in the later stages.
KU's study has focused for years on issues like environmental factors that may affect whether people get, or do not get, the illness and what can be done to stop the disease's symptoms, Koller said.
"It is our hope that if we continue to learn more about Parkinson's, we can learn more about other diseases we study, such as Alzheimer's disease," he said.
The accomplishments of the research team include a study of Kansas residents. The study revealed that those who live in rural areas and drink well water are twice as likely to get Parkinson's disease.
Eventually, Koller said he would like to find a cure to the illness.

Wal-Mart recycles conveniently
New center able to take in wide variety of items; sees growing amount of usage
By David Stewart Special to the Kansan
Special to the Kansan
Build it and they will come — with their trash.
Recent counts indicate that between 3000 and 4000 vehicles a week have been pulling up to the Lawrence Wal-Mart's community recycling center, said Patty Perez, the store's environmental coordinator. One Saturday Wal-Mart counted more than 1,500 vehicles.
Lawrence area residents drop off all types of trash brown beer bottles in moldy cardboard boxes, plastic sacks filled with crushed soda cans and torn paper bags stuffed with month-old newspapers.
For many, the recycling center has become a one-stop disposal site.
"I had to go to three different places to recycle before," said Kerry Townsend, Lawrence resident, after she dropped her newspaper bundles in one of the center's plastic bins. "It a lot less trouble for me to take it all here just once a month."
"About 50 percent of my trash can be recycled," she said. "This place makes it a lot more convenient."
"They take everything," said Debbie Hopkins, Newton senior, as she unloaded plastic bags of aluminum cans from her car.
As Robert Van Hercke, Shawnee junior, cleared out the plastic bags of cans and boxes of bottles that covered the back of his pick-up truck, he said that he had waited until he and about 20 friends had saved up enough goods to fill the truck and drive out to the center.
He estimated 60 to 80 percent of the items he threw away could be recycled.
"I figure I'll be out here whenever we can't handle all the stuff anymore" Van Hercke said.
Some people who recycle said convenience was one of the center's main benefits. While Lawrence has several centers that accept certain
types of recyclable items, Wal-Mart is the only drop-off site that takes almost every household recyclable item, from junk mail to plastic milk jugs, Perez said.
"When we first opened back in May, people would come in with three years' worth of stuff they had been waiting to recycle," said Joshua Freeman of Community Living Opportunities, the Lawrence-based non-profit group that operates the center.
Freeman said corrugated cardboard made up the greatest volume of recycled material. Glass makes up most of the weight.
The volume of recyclable items has decreased from the opening week's onslaught, but the number of patrons at the center has remained steady. Freeman said.
"We're always busy, especially during lunch hours and right after work," Freeman said. "Between 2:30 and 3:00 in the afternoon we usually get a big rush of parents and kids getting out of school."
Freeman said the center sent out a tractor-trailer full of goods about every three days.
The truckloads of paper, cardboard, and aluminum that the center collects go to Batliner Paper Stock Co. of Kansas City, Mo. Nick Sterbach, spokesperson for Batliner, said his company could pay Wal-Mart a good price for its collected goods because the center's employees kept the different products well-separated.
"The quality of the merchandise is very good so they're paid top-dollar for it," said Sterbach. "They do a good job. The contamination rate in their products is very low."
Perez said she did not have a definite figure for how much money Wal-Mart has received so far from its recycling center.
Scott Schulte, a waste reduction specialist for the city of Lawrence, said he was pleased with the
response that the center had received.
"The Wal-Mart center has been great. It's just what Lawrence needed," Schulte said. "If people in Lawrence want to recycle now, they have a convenient way to do it."
Schulte said a recycling advisory board had examined the possibility of instituting a city-wide curbside recycling program, but decided it was not worth the additional expense. The city decided to let private firms provide recycling in Lawrence, he said.
"If there are private companies
willing to get into recycling in Lawrence, we want to help them do it." Schulte said.
The store's center also has received praise from the Kansas Land Trust, a local environmental group. Joyce Wolf, a representative of the group, said she was impressed by the initiative and commitment a large company such as Wal-Mart showed by creating and running this center.

"I'm really excited by the fact that they were addressing the concerns of the environment firsthand," Wolf said.
Native-American ceremony focuses on racial problems
By Carlos Tejada

Despite the mud and the humidity, about 70 Lawrence residents turned out Thursday evening for a Native-American ceremony addressing modern American problems.
The Second Gathering for Peace and Healing, held Thursday afternoon at the Medicine Wheel at Haskell Indian Junior College, was sponsored by Haskell and Lawrence Alliance, an anti-racism coalition.
Lisa Blair, coordinator of the coalition, said such an activity was the best way for members of Lawrence's different ethnic groups to meet one another.
"We wanted to provide opportunities to get to know people on a one-on-one basis," she said.

The Gathering began with the participants walking sing file around
The ceremony began with Smith singing in the language of the Cherokee nation and throwing holy water in the four directions. The crowd turned when he did, so that all participants faced in the same direction.
the medicine wheel, a series of symbolic lines cut into the grass in the shape of a wheel. They then stood in a circle in the center of the wheel while Benny Smith, assistant dean of students at Haskell, performed the ceremony.
Smith then poured holy water into the left hands of the participants. Participants dipped their right fingers in the holy water and cast droplets over their heads.
Snith, who called himself a participant in the ceremony rather than a leader, said such rituals cleansed the mind of the thoughts that lead to racism.
The ceremony served its purpose for one group of participants, said Sarah Terwelf, parent-child specialist for the First Step House. Ten residents of the shelter for women and children recovering from drug addiction, attended the ceremony.

Women's shelter provides safety
Giving confidence to shun abuse is goal
By Lisa Cosmillo
Kansan staff writer
Abused women have choices.
This is the philosophy of the Women's Transitional Care Service, said Michaela Hays, WTCS volunteer.
"We try to give the control back to them and let them take care of their own lives," Hays said.
WTCS is a shelter for women and children who are in transition because of violence in their homes. The location of the shelter is confidential to insure the occupants' safety. Haws said.
"Our mission is to end violence in the world by ending violence in our homes," said Connie Burk, child advocate coordinator at the shelter.
Burk said that violence had a broad definition at the shelter, including racism, homophobia, sexism and ageism.
"Domestic violence cuts across all lines that we use to categorize, name and differentiate people." Burk said.
About 500 women from a variety of backgrounds find help at the shelter each year.
"Our purpose is to offer safe housing to women and children who are survivors of domestic violence." Burk said.
Women can stay at the shelter for 30 days, which is subject to extension, and are provided lodging, food, toiletries and supplies for children, Burk said. The shelter offers a variety of services including public speaking, crisis counseling and weekly support groups that meet for both women and children. But mostly it offers advocacy, both personal and legal, and a safe place for women to figure out their next step.
It is all about empowerment, Burk said.
"We believe that women know what they need to do," said Burk. "Maybe a woman comes in and needs to sleep for two weeks, because she has been up every night or locked in a room for 16 days. Who am I to say what she needs to be doing?"
The center is staffed by four full-time staff members and volunteer advocates, who go through extensive training and screening, said Burk. Only women can staff the crisis line and work in the shelter with the residents. However, men may serve as child advocates.

"It's fun. I get to be a kid for a while, but it can be quite stressful," Jones said. "They come out of various situations, violent homes where they get used to being hit. They don't take you seriously unless you're violent."
Jones said the advocates tried to teach the children that violence was not a good option.
In the shelter there is a rule that no violence is allowed, Burk said. Mothers are not allowed to yell at their children or hit them, and the children are not allowed to hit one another. The advocates and support people help think of other forms of communication and discipline when necessary.
"Anytime there is someone in empowered-down position without real autonomy or power in the system there is the potential for abuse of that power," said Joyce Davidson, staff psychologist at Counseling and Psychological Services at Watkins Memorial Health Center.
Some students at KU are victims of abuse, Davidson said. She advises people to listen to their feelings.
This could happen economically or physically, making children, women, disabled or older people particularly vulnerable, she said.
"If you're feeling like you may get physically hurt or emotionally hurt or physically intimidated, find a way to increase your confidence, to set limits or to get out," Davidson said.
The shelter depends on about $150,000 in donations each year to operate.

IN OUR OPINION
Phelps 'demon' himself instead of homosexuals
Saturday was supposed to be one the happiest days of Molly Price's life. It was her wedding day. But thanks to Fred Phelps, a disbarred Topeka attorney known for his anti-homosexual protests, both Price and her husband, Joshua Fraser, will remember on their wedding day exiting Danforth Chapel into a hate protest.
Phelps' ministry of hatred and bigotry found yet another victim on Saturday a victim who had no more to do with homosexuals than Phelps has with reason.
Price, by chance, scheduled her wedding the day of a memorial service for Greg Barker, a KU student who died of AIDS complications June 30. Chance turned to misfortune when Phelps and members of the Westboro Baptist Church showed up to protest the memorial service.
More unfortunate for Price was a Kansas law that forbids protesting an hour before, during and the hour after a memorial service but does not forbid protesting at a wedding.
And most unfortunate is that Phelps, while ruining a wedding, broke no laws. He has made his career around ruining the most significant events in people's lives.
Saturday's protest wasn't the first. On December 23, 1991, Phelps first protested the funeral for a man who died of AIDS complications. In Phelps' backwards, twisted reasoning, he continues to rationalize the insensitivity of shouting messages that homosexuals are demons in the eyes of God.
Phelps is entitled to his beliefs on homosexuality, and he is entitled to protest any cause he believes worthy of his energy. The First Amendment protects his rights, just like everyone else's.
But it doesn't protect the victims of Phelps' hatred. Only when Phelps respects other people's lives and private moments will the senseless anguish end. No one expects Phelps to change his ideology, but protesting with blind emotion and without sensitivity proves that Phelps is the real demon.

GTAs merit $10,000 fund given by Budig and wife
For years graduate teaching assistants have performed a valuable and dramatically underpaid service for the University of Kansas. Chancellor
Gene Budig and his wife have recently made an important contribution to recognizing the value of GTAs at the University. They have established a $10,000 fund to honor outstanding graduate teaching assistants.
GTAs are an essential part of the University. Budget cuts have made GTAs even more important than they have been in the past. Last year at KU, GTAs taught about 40 percent of all undergraduate students and about 50 percent of all first-year students. Their impact is greatly by students at KU.
Budig said the fund's purpose was to recognize the importance of teaching excellence. Three to five GTAs have been recognized annually, but it is obvious from the quality of students graduating each year that there are more than three to five excellent GTAs. While Budig's gift of $10,000 won't be enough to recognize all of the truly excellent GTAs, it is appreciated. It is hoped that this will lead to more contributions by others who see the need to support excellence in graduate teaching.

Search for apartment requires new vocabulary
I now know that "so diverse" meant "suckers."
Finding an apartment in August in Lawrence is about as much fun as having your legs waxed.
The room looked like something from a Depression-era movie. The floor leaned in one direction, the rusty refrigerator in another. Lighting consisted of one naked light bulb
I am one of the poor souls forced to play the Summer Apartment Hunt game. It is sort of a scavenger hunt where there is no real winner, and the loser is the one left with the biggest slum hole.
Initially, I considered placing an ad myself. Aging graduate student and precocious cat seek housing for cold months to come. Prefer roof, floor, walls, indoor plumbing and basic appliances, if possible.
So you see, I really don't expect much. Yet, I am continually underwhelmed. And slums in Lawrence aren't a new phenomenon. I remember the first apartment I saw. It was during semester break my freshman year. The woman showing the apartment seemed nice enough. As we walked up the rickey staircase to the apartment door, she cheerfully remarked how she liked renting to students, because we were so diverse.

swinging from the center of the room.
One look at that apartment and I decided that an additional semester at Daisy Hill wasn't so bad.
Until this year, I've been lucky. Planning in advance, checking on the moving status of friends with cool apartments, and not moving for years at a time has kept me in livable, affordable form this year. I think my number is me.
The first problem is my cat. I've never understood the fear that 12 pounds of fluff can instill in any prospective landlord. Compared to 165 pounds of a drunken fraternity guy, a cat vomits a lot less and is less likely to urinate in a corner.
The second problem is trying to read between the lines of the ads. Some landlords go to extremes in their desire to embellish the bleakness of their apartments. Here is a little insight into "apartment speak."
Artistry studio. Read it barren room with lots of drafts for ventilation.
Cozy: Count on not fitting much more that a twin bed in the room if you want to get the door open.
Efficiency Apartment: Why an apartment with no counter space can be considered efficient is a mystery to me, unless you consider the fact that the only place to put the bed is right in front of the stove.
Close to Campus: Be skeptical of this one. If as many apartments with advertising "close to campus" actually were close to campus, the Oread neighborhood would have the population density of downtown Tokyo. Consider "close to campus" to mean "somewhere in Douglascount."
Old World Kitchen: This one should
should win the Best Euphemistic
Description of a Slum award. I can't

Good luck to you if you find yourself in my situation. You'll need it. Personally, I'm seriously considering moving into the KU parking garage. I figure past fines should pay for my first six months, at least.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Ban on smoking needed for health
The new campus ban on smoking is more than just the "politically correct" thing to do. It is a very positive acknowledgement by the University that all persons, smoking and non, should be able to freely walk through campus buildings. Banning smoking indoors is no more discriminatory against smokers than banning open burning on campus is discriminatory against pyromaniacs. Banning indoor smoking was a public health decision; it was not designed to antagonize anyone.
rather than the current practice of
feetboarding the campus with campers.
Kellie Hogan
Now that all campus smoking will be conducted outside, the university should provide a place for smokers to put the unused portions of their cigarettes. Sand buckets would provide an inconspicuous place to collect cigarette butts

Column on trees unrealistic, false
Your second error involves your vision of loggers wontally chopping trees, just watching them fall. Actually, most loggers are contracted by lumber companies who don't want
In response to Doug Hesse's column concerning trees
Your July 14 column is environmental extrominent drivel
Your pessimistic vision is flawed. There are more acres of trees in the United States today than there have ever been. The Great Plains was still the "Great American Desert" 100 years ago.
Dear Mr. Hesse,
us to run out of trees. Every humber company in the U.S. from Bosc-Cascade to Weyerhauer realizes that trees are a crop and to continue harvesting, more trees must be planted. Believe it or not, they do.
This brings me to your third error. Most trees used by the lumber industry mature in about half the 80 to 100 years you say it takes to tree.
Near the end of your column you surmise that Clinton made it law to save 80 percent of the old-growth forest, and in the next paragraph you say the nation became "devoid of trees." You can't have it both waves.
Can I assume your fictitious grandson was named Al after another
The next time you write a column, stick to the facts.

Don't ask, tell recruit policy unrealistic for women, gays
The date is earlier this century. The place is your local Navy recruiter. He has just received notice from the President that women are finally allowed into the military. But it is under a "don't ask, don't tell" policy. The recruiter cannot ask an applicant's gender, and the applicant cannot act in such a way that would disclose his/her gender.
A potential recruit, whose name is Terry, approaches the recruiter's table and says, "I want to sign up." He checks it on your shirt, says "I'm busy" before he asks
"Nothing, sir." Terry says.
"You sure those ain't breasts?" "No. sir."
"Ain't your voice a little high?
Term Griffes. "Have a gold sir."
"You can't a woman, are you?" the recruiter asks.
At this point a lawyer steps forward, "Ma'am, or sir—whichever you are, it doesn't matter to me because you're still a valuable member of society—you do not have to answer the question. By law, the Army cannot ask you what your gender is when determining if they want you."
"Realy, sir?" Terry asks, looking at the recruiter.
in people.
The recruiter shakes his head and begins muttering, "I want you to know I don't like this. Pretty soon, they'll have to let everybody in, like Negroes and queers. You aren't amit, are you?"
Three weeks later Terry is caught with a brassiere. Two other recruits had gone through Terry's foot locker and, upon finding the offending undergardment, had took it to the commanding officer.
"What do you have to say for yourself?" the commanding officer says, holding the bra with a pen as if it was poison.
"You don't wear this thing now, do you?"
"Cuz we don't take too kindly to those cross-dressing types, you know."
"No, sir, I don't do that. It's ... it's a gift."
"A gift" the CO says, raising his eyebrows.
The CO leans back in his chair, a smile spread across his face. "A gift from a girl, I guess."
The CO throws the brassiere at Terry. "I like that. Your girlfriend sends you her underwear. She send you her panties?"
Uncertain how to respond. Terry stands awkwardly.
"Just one pair, sir." Terry says quietly.
The CO laughs. He looks over Terry's file for a moment. "Son, you're getting some good marks around him and you'd like a temporary promotion?"
"Promotion, sir?"
"Yes," the CO says, getting out of his chair. He comes around to the front of his desk and puts his arm around Terry. As they walk out of his office, the CO says, "You can be my driver tonight. You ever heard of Talhook?"

Clinton gay policy hits Congress
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Senate Armed Services Committee chairman served notice yesterday that Congress will have the final say on President Bill Clinton's policy on homosexuals serving in the military.
"Congress will vote on this issue one way or another." Sen. Sam Nunn, D-Ga., said at the start of hearings on the proposal to Aspin and the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Gen. Colin Powell, staff chairman,
told the committee he was "in full support of the president's policy," saying it would allow the military to retain the cohesion it needs to carry out its mission.
Nunn said legislation on the policy will be part of next year's defense budget, and he reserved judgment as to whether it will be the president's
policy or his own.
"I hope that we will receive testimony today and tomorrow that will enable us to mark up legislation that is consistent with the policy announced by the president and Secretary Aspin." Nunn said.
Clinton unveiled his policy Monday as an "honorable compromise," but gay rights advocates and some Democrats said the plan forces military homosexuals to remain in the closet.
Administration officials yesterday defended the policy, with Aspin telling the committee that "to a large extent the president achieved his goal" of allowing service members in the military regardless of sexual orientation.
George Stephanopoulos, counselor to the president, said yesterday on ABC, "The essential policy of the military will be to leave homosexuals alone aslong as they're acting privately. It will create a zone of privacy for gays in the military."
Citizen's policy directs the military to allow homosexuals to serve as long as they remain silent about their sexuality. It would make gays subject to dismissal for all forms of homosexual activity, from holding hands to sexual acts. But discharge would not result from going to a gay bar, reading homosexual publications or marching in a gay rights parade.
Clinton, unveiling his policy in a speech at Fort McNair, Va., said, "It is not a perfect solution. It is not identical with some of my own goals. And it certainly will not please everyone, perhaps not anyone, and clearly not those who hold the most adamant opinions on either side of this issue."
BRIEFS
MANHATTAN, Kan. — Rain continued to fall yesterday and city officials considered ordering emergency evacuations as water released from two rain-swollen federal reservoirs flooded some low-lying areas.
Thousands of people were urged Monday to evacuate their homes voluntarily. More than 600 volunteers responded by working throughout the day, moving belongings from basements and building leeves with sandbags to keep water from houses.
About 70 members of the Kansas National Guard were activated to assist Riley County Police Department with security and evacuations
Flood waters near Manhattan force evacuations
Residents north of the Kansas River were keeping a wary eye on the river's level from Manhattan to Kansas City, as continuing rains added to the discharge from Tuttle Creek and Milford federal reservoirs near Manhattan and Junction City.
Sen. Bud Burke, the Kansas Senate president, Monday signed a disaster declaration for the entire state, allowing state resources to be used to assist flood victims. Mary Holladay, Gov. Joan Finney's chief of staff, affixed the governor's signature to a request for federal aid. Finney was in Taiwan on a state trade mission.
Thunderstorms, some possibly severe, were forecast into the latter part of the week.
President nominates Sessions' FBI successor
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President Bill Clinton yesterday nominated federal judge Louis Freeh, a former FBI agent and federal prosecutor, to succeed fired director William Sessions as head of the FBI. The president called Freah "a law enforcement legend."
The Associated Press
The announcement came just a day after he dismissed Sessions, ending a dramatic six-month confrontation.
Freh, 43, a federal district judge from Manhattan, N.Y., has spent nearly his entire career in government service, much of it investigating organized crime.

It's only a pin prick Acupuncture restores energy flow
"So, help my allergies," Itold Vince Scholea, a Lawrence chiropractor and acupuncturist. "Turn me into a pin cushion."
And he did.
Eyeing the two-inch needle apprehensively, I watched him place it near my elbow, wondering just how far he intended to push it in.
"Sure," I said. "OK. Just stop before it hits muscle or bone or comes out the other side —

"OK, I'm just going to tap on it slightly to get it in," he said. "You'll just feel a little pinch."
DINNER'S TREASURES
"Wait ... That didn't hurt. Do it again."
And he did. One more near my knee and one close to my wrist. He left them in — only a few millimeters deep — for about 10 minutes, and talked about the things acupuncture could help, like arthritis, dieting and smoking cessation.
But can it be used as an anesthetic? I saw on television once where, in China, they used a bunch of pins and needles and a steady hand as an anesthetic for brain surgery. Brain surgery
"Yes, it's possible," he said. "I saw films in chiropractic school where they used acupuncture for Caesarean sections and tonsillectomies. In one, they removed this guy's tonsils while he was standing up, gave him some tea, and sent him on his way 30 minutes later."

All I had were some allergies and lots of curiosity. I didn't want to see anyone's organs removed, namely mine.
Looking at those two-inch needles poking into my skin, wobbling ever so slightly, helping my allergies, feeling cool. I wondered how they did what they did.
Acupuncture has evolved over thousands of years,but one seems to know exactly how it works.It's an ancient Chinese secret.
What acupuncturists do know, however, is that it relies on energy.
**Above:** A two-inch acupuncture needle sticks out of the arm of Kansan staff worker Todd Puntney. The needle, which remains in place for about 10 minutes, was inserted only a few millimeters. **Top left:** Vince Scholle, Lawrence chiropractor and acupuncturist, uses a neurometer to apply electricity to acupuncture points around Puntney's ear. Puntney held a metal cylinder to ground himself. **Below:** Scholle taps lightly on the needle to place it. **Bottom left:** A neurometer is used to balance energy in Puntney's meridians.
"I don't think anyone's ever been able to demonstrate what the energy is, exactly." Scholle said. "Loosely translated, I think it would be something like the life force."
This energy, he explained, runs through 14 pathways — called meridians — throughout the body. Along these meridians are specific points that influence the energy flow, and are designated with names like Bladder 67 or Large Intestine 11.
Illness occurs when the energy flow is interrupted.
success occurs when the energy flow is interrupted.
"People have speculated that acupuncture goes directly to the energy blockage, and by means of a physical loosening — like a needle or electrical stimulus or massage — it breaks the blockage and re-establishes the energy flow," he said. "Once that happens, your body can go ahead and heal in a normal way, which is the way it should be, because healing always comes from within."
Before Scholle can begin acupuncture, he has to determine if the energy levels are balanced, to see if the body is in harmony, part of the ancient Chinese secret.
placing the tip of the neurometer on certain points that correspond to different meridians. A spot on the right pinky toe corresponds to the kidney meridian, on the bottom of the foot to the spleen, and so on.
Using a neurometer, an instrument that looks like an electrical hammer. The hamster can measure energy flow by
My system, the neurometer showed a week before my acupuncture appointment, was out of whack.
"Your excretory system needs work," he said, then added coyly. "But isn't boozing it up a requirement for college?"
To balance it, Scholle applied an extremely low-voltage current with the neurometer to various points. After two series of charges, I was electrically stimulated, my systems were balanced, and I was ready for needles.
Alot of people, though, might be wary of having sharp shafts of metal inserted into their skin. After all, it seems kind of grotesque and maybe a little bit insane and all too reminiscent of Hollywiser.
But that's nothing compared to the foreign substances conventional medicine dumps into the body.
"The greatest advantage is that you are not putting in any type of environmental toxin to the body, whereas conventional medicine does," Scholle said. "Look at all of the contraindications and precautions and drug interaction warnings. Drugs have all kinds of aborrent side effects."
Still, many traditional doctors doubt the validity of acupuncture.
"Acupuncture is purely an esoteric type of art form and conventional medicine doesn't give it regular credence," he said. "Conventional medicine is so focused in its approach, that if you can't find the offending organism you can't treat the illness."
But does acupuncture really work?
"Most of the people who do acupuncture say they have about a 70 to 80 percent cure rate," Scholle said. "I hate to use the word cure, because I don't think that's accurate in any context. But it helps control."
All I know is that night I mowed a lawn, and for the first time I can remember — without taking any prescription drugs — I didn't sneeze.
Alternative campus paper returns
Take This will seek advertisers as way to finance publication
By Lisa Cosmillo Kansan staff writer
TRACE This, an alternative student newspaper, is coming back and selling out, said Robert MacRae, Caney senator.
It has no choice.
When the newspaper began in 1900 it was funded by Student Senate as a student organization, said MacRae, editor of the newspaper. Now they will approach advertisers.
Because of a lack of funds and a graduating staff, Take This has not been published since April 1992, MacRae said.
"Student Senate was always putting up a fight," MacRae said. "They didn't
want to give us any money at all. They thought it was a duplication of services with Whosinations and other local papers."
Wosinations is another alternative campus newspaper.
In Spring 1992 Take This went to Student Senate for the last time and received a small amount of money, said MacRae. It did not use it.
John Shoemaker, Topeka senior and student body president, said Student Senate did not object to the content of Take This.
Student Senate granted Whostations money first. When Take This requested funding, the senate voted that it was a duplication of services because the papers were similar.
"Student Senate has a clause that they will not fund duplicated services." Shoemaker said.
Carl Ring, Lawrence senior and an avid reader of alternative publications, said he resented Take This. He said he thought Student Senate was right not to finance it, because Take This began with funds meant for another publication.
MacRae admitted that Whosinations was the closest paper to Take This on campus.
"Because of Take This, Disorientation was run into the ground," he said.
Ring explained that Disorientation was not a newspaper, but a monthly guide to underground Lawrence.
When Take This lost its funding so did Diorientation.
"I thought Take This pursued apolitical agenda at the expense of good writing." Ring said.
MacRae said that *Take This* tried to avoid a single philosophy.
"We don't try to have a rule that says you have to have this kind of viewpoint," MacRae said. "In fact, we try to avoid any type of political involvement. If we have any kind of politics, it's more along the line of anarchy."

Shirt sale to aid city flood victims
Designer says tour of North Lawrence spawned his idea
By Katie Greenwald
Kansan staff writer
A T-shirt might not make a great sandbag, but it could help Lawrence flood victims.
Midwest Graphics Inc., 500 E. 2:3rd St., has designed a T-shirt that will be sold to benefit the victims of the July 10 flood.
Chuck Sinks, sales manager for the store, said that the shirts would sell for $10, and that half of the profits would be donated to the Douglas
County Chapter of the American Red Cross. The other half will be used to cover costs to the graphics company and retailers, he said.
Sinks said that the goal was to raise $10,000 and that all of the proceeds would stay in Lawrence. He said he the shirts would sell for a few weeks.
"We were just driving through North Lawrence, and we saw all the yuck and realized that these people would need help," he said.
Jo Byers, director of the Red Cross in Douglas County, said flood victims would receive assistance in the form of vouchers. After victims apply for assistance, their needs will be assessed and the Red Cross will write a voucher to a store of the victim's choice. Then the victim can take the
voucher to that store in exchange for products. The store will return it to the Red Cross, which will reimburse the store.
"We can't replace everything that's been lost, but we can determine what they need."
Byers said victims would be given money only for what they needed.
T-shirts can be purchased at Alvin's IGA, 101 Iowa St.; Checkers Foods, 2300 Louisiana St.; Johnny's Tavern, 401 N. Second St.; Kmart, 3106 Iowa St.; Roger's Food Center, 608 N. Second St.; and the Kansas Union Bookstores. Radio stations KLZR and KLWN and Cable Channel Six also are sponsoring the T-shirt sale.
Storms cause costly damage to city trees
Sinks said that volunteer groups also could sell the shirts. Those inter-

July's storms have taken a lot of trees and some beauty from South Park, 12th and Massachusetts streets.
Fred DeVictor, Lawrence director of parks and recreation, said South Park's trees had suffered damage estimated at $35,000.
Total damage to trees in Lawrence's parks and along city streets since a storm July 2 has been estimated at $80,300. Deviant said.
Cleanup has cost the city more than $35,000, and $44,000 may be spent before the work is done, he said.
DeVictor said replacement of the full-grown trees with younger ones would cost an estimated $52,000.
"We don't have that kind of money in our budget to replace those trees," he
The city budgets about $25,000 a
year for tree addition and replacement, he said.
Many of the damaged trees were big and old, and normally they would be replaced by trees that are only about 6 inches in diameter. DeVictor said.
"There's a loss that you have that will never be replaced," he said. "We just start over again."
Mike Richardson, director of facilities operations, said the University of Kansas had not suffered as much damage.
The biggest problem at KU was water leaking into buildings, he said. The main expense was paying employees overtime to clean up the
He said 17 trees at an estimated value of $1200 were damaged dur-
DeVictor said he hoped the city's new trees would be around for future generations to enjoy.
Former journalism professor dies at 92
Kansan staff report
Thomas "Mickie" Rythe, a former KU journalism professor, died last Thursday at Lawrence Memorial Hospital. He was 92.
Ryther, who graduated from KU in 1926, was superintendent of the KU Printing Service and part-time faculty member in the journalism school for 16 years. He became a full-time associate professor of journalism in 1966 and retired four years later.
After retiring, he volunteered at the Spencer Research Library and indexed the contents of more than 70 boxes of University papers and letters. He also made a reference file of every article printed in the University Daily Kansas since 1935. In another project, he compiled a 20,000-name list of all Kansas athletes since 1890.
For his volunteer work, Rythre received an award of excellence from the Kansas City Area Archivists in 1988 for over 18.000 hours of volunteer work.

Academics fall Hancock
Kansas forward plans to transfer
Kansan staff report
Darrin Hancock will not play for the Kansas men's basketball team next season.
Kansas coach Roy Williams said last week that the Jayhawk forward would not return for his senior season.
Hancock was a starter for the Jay hawks last season, his first at Kansas.
Darrin Hancock
"Darrin had some personal problems this summer that caused him to miss over two weeks of summer school." Williams said in a news release. "Therefore, he is withdrawing from school and will not be eligible to play."
Williams said Hancock needed the summer classes in order to maintain his basketball eligibility. Hancock will transfer to another school; Williams said, but that school has not yet been decided.
"The academic pressure as well as playing basketball at this level was a tremendous burden on him," Williams said. "He will have to sit out a year at his next school, but he will also have that year to get on stronger ground academically."
A. E.
els, Williams said.
The loss of Hancock hurt on two le
"This is a huge loss for us because Darrin was going to be such big factor for our team," he said "it's also a blow for me personally because Darrin
is such a nice young man."
Last season, Hancock started in 33 games. He suffered torn retinas in January in both eyes, but returned quickly and helped the Jayhawks earn a Final Four berth.
Barclays averaged 5.0 points and 4.5 rebounds last season for Kansas. He shot 54.2 percent from the floor and was named to the Big Eight Conference All-Newcomer Team and Basketball Weekly's All-Juco transfer second team.
Hancock, from Griffin, Ga, came to Kansas from Garden City Community College. At Garden City, Hancock averaged 21.8 points, 11.7 rebounds and 6.1 assists during his sophomore year. He was a two-time junior college All-American and the 1992 National Junior College Athletic Association Player of the Year.
At Griffin High School, Hancock was a two-time Georgia preplayer of the year.
'Hawks hoops schedule
This season the men's basketball team will play 13 teams that were in last year's NCAA tournament. Kansas will also appear in the 16 team preseason NIT tournament.

Press box burns at Atlanta stadium
Fire breaks out before Braves game; early fans are evacuated
The Associated Press
The fire started 90 minutes before the Atlanta Braves were to play the St. Louis Cardinals and the fire was out 45 minutes after it began.
ATLANTA — Fire broke out in a luxury suite at Atlanta Fulton County Stadium yesterday, sending fans and players scurrying for safety as black smoke poured from the pressbox fire.
One firefighter was taken to a hospital suffering from heat exhaustion and 10 others were treated on the scene for heat-related problems. No other injuries were reported
the fire was caused by an electrical problem.
Fans who had arrived early for the 7-40 p.m. EDT start were evacuated. Braces management still hoped to play
Atlanta assistant fire chief Larry Tanner said he thought
"If there's any doubt in our mind that there was structural damage, at least that section of the stadium will be isolated completely," Tanner said. "We'll never risk people's lives to play a game."
The fire burned 25 minutes before firefighters could get close enough to pour water on it. Twenty minutes later, it appeared to be out.
Tamer said five box suits were destroyed and a sixth was heavily damaged. Braves president Stan Kasten said he did not believe the stadium sustained structural damage. He said the fire "cost us some seats, a sound system, and we may have difficulty broadcasting the game."
The fire apparently started on the third-base side of the press level in a luxury suite rented by radio station WGST. Matt Stewart of WGST said no one was in the suite when the fire started at 5:55 p.m.
A loud explosion was heard several minutes after the fire began. Burning debris fell onto the field-level seats, flames shot through the middle level and black smoke billowed on the ground. Players from both teams stood on the field and watched.
Former Jayhawks sign professional contracts
Three former Jayhawks have signed professional sports contracts with their respective teams.
Former Kansas basketball player Rex Walters signed a multi-year deal with the New Jersey Nets, said Willis Reed, Nets general manager.
Former Kansas football player Dana Stubblefield signed with the San Francisco 49ers. Another former football player, Gilbert Brown signed with the Minnesota Vikings.
Terms of the three contracts were not disclosed.
Bingham named coach of the year
Kansan staff report
Kansas baseball coach Dave Bingham, who in May took Kansas to its first ever College World Series, was District VI coach of the year Friday.
Under Bingham, who was also named Big Eight coach of the year in June, the Jayhawks earned a 45-18 record last year and second place in the conference.
Bingham has a career record of 743-444.2. He began his coaching career at Emporia State in 1974 and moved to Kansas in 1988. He compiled a 558-270.2 record in 19 years at Emporia State, winning the NAIA championship in 1978.
In his first five years at Kansas, Bingham had a. 473 record. This year, Bingham went .714 and led the team to a single-season team record 45 victories.

Ryan Express is back on track with victory
The Associated Press
ARLINGTON, Texas — Even Nolan Ryan was surprised by the results.
"I have to be encouraged," Ryan said of his successful return to the mound Monday night after a 72-day layoff. "Three weeks ago, I had my doubts about whether I would pitch again this year."
Baseball's all-time strikeout leader returned from rehabilitation bis hip to baffling batters in the Texas Rangers' 5-3 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers.
He struck out six and walked one while giving up two earned runs and scattering three hits in almost six innings. A sold-out crowd of 40,676 at Arlington Stadium gave him several standing ovations.
Ryan cane out smoking, his fastball consistently zooming past home plate at 94 mph and his curveball spinning sharply through the strike zone. His fastest pitch was clocked at 96 mph.
His control was unbelievable for a 46-year-old power pitcher coming on his longest career stint on the disabled list, said Texas pitching coach Claude Osteen.
In Ryan's five previous stays on the DL while with the Rangers, he had not pitched more than five innings in his first start after being activated and was 1-4 with 7.97 ERA and 6.2 walks per nine innings.
"I was outstanding tonight," Osteen said. "He gave us exactly what we wanted, and even went farther than we expected. What surprised me was how he turned the fastball on late."
Ryan, who will start again Sunday at
home against Toronto, reported no physical problems after his 321st career victory and first start since May 7, when he strained a hip muscle in his first start back from arthroscopic knee surgery.
It didn't take long for Ryan, 2-2, to get back in the groove. Darryll Hamilton, the first batter of the game, went down swinging. Kevin Reiner, a former teammate of Ryan's, ended the first run with strikeout No. 2.
His comeback was further delayed when he sliced his foot on the blade of a water ski. The last of seven stitches was removed June 13.
Ryan was the antidote for a pitching-trim staff desperately in need of an ace while the Rangers battle for their first division title in a weak AL West.
Of Milwaukee's first nine batters, four struck out.
The pitchers who took his place for 12 starts in Ryan's absence were a combined 2-5 with a 5.90 ERA.
By the time Ryan pulled himself out of the game in the sixth innning, he had allowed only three hits and had upped his record strikeout to total 5,084.
"He's the guy we need to get through the second half," Texas manager Kevin Kennedy said. "He doesn't need to do any more than he did tonight because of our improved bulpen" even though it took four pitches to record the final 10 outs.
"I can't make any predictions about anything." Ryan said. "I have to take it start by start. I hope to start every time my turn comes up.
"I couldn't ask for a better situation to come back into, the way the team has recovered. We're in the middle of the pennant race."

KU's first comptroller plans retirement in middle August
By Susan White
Special to the Kansan
Keith Nitcher, University of Kansas director of business and fiscal affairs, knows the time has come to take a step in a new direction.
"Isn't there a saying that you should quit while you're ahead?"
Nitcher, who has been at KU for 36 years, will retire in the middle of August.
Nitcher came to KU on March 1, 1957 after working at the department of administration in Topeka for about three years.
He began his career at the University as the first comptroller. The comptroller handles accounting for the payrolls and writes the pay reports.
Nitcher was promoted in 1969 from comproller to a higher financial position.
competitor to a higher financial position.
"I became the vice chancellor of finance."
I became the vice chancellor of finance, which was a broader job than being comptroller. I supervised all financial and budgeting matters and was controller of accounting." he said.
A. E. B.
As director of business and fiscal affairs, Nitcher assisted Chancellor Gene Budig with financial matters for KU and the KU Medical Center. He also reported actions taken by the Board of Regents to the University.
Nitcher said many things had changed on campus since he first came to KU. One of the biggest changes, he said, was the growth in the student population.
"When I came to KU in 1957 there were fewer than 10,000 students," he said.
Not only were there fewer students in 1957, but the residence halls on Daisy Hill had not yet been built.
The years also have brought about a change in technology, mainly the creation of computers, he said.
"Before I only had a 13-column pad of paper and a lead machine to do the accounting." he said. "And of course, I had an adding machine." Nitcher said there were several things he would miss about KU—especially the people.
"I certainly enjoyed the people I worked with, including my immediate staff and the administration," he said. "I will also miss seeing the new students—watching them grow and leave for new things in their fields of study. It's like a renewal of life. A new crop of students."
Nitcher also said he would miss working on all the activities he was involved in including work with the Kansas Union and the Athletic
Ed Meyen, executive vice chancellor, said Nitcher was valuable to the University
"He was very instrumental to the department." Meyen said. "He had good initiatives for working with new facilities. When resources were slim he was the one to move ahead and push on."
Meyen also said that Nitcher was a leader in the area of finance. "He was one of those unusual people who could look at a problem and see solutions," he said. "He was one of the key problem solvers on campus."
Meyen said he was grateful for all the work Nitcher had done.
"He will be missed," he said.
KU researchers to visit Nicaragua to study culture
By Carlos Telada
Kansan staff writer
Despite recent turnover in Nicaragua, the 12 researchers in the Latin American Studies Association summer field seminar plan to research with the country's writers and professors.
Charles Stansifer, professor of history and leader of the LASA seminar, said the recent attacks by contra rebels on government installations were a sign of poverty and not of full-blown civil unrest.
"It's not so much an ideological issue," he said. "It's more of an external protest of economic conditions."
Stansifer said the seminar, which leaves Saturday for Nicaragua, was designed to allow researchers of Latin American issues to meet academic sources. LASA is a national organization of Latin American specialists.
"It's not only a question of finding sources," he said of the forms of funding contacts.
he said. It is a question of forming contacts. Such visits are helpful both in research and learning about the country, said Barbara Waggoner, research associate for the Latin American studies department. Waggoner, who will
go with the group, visited Nicaragua in 1981 when tensions were high. She said she remembered seeing soldiers for both the Somoza government and the Sandinista rebels in every part of the country.
"You didn't know which side you were lookin' at." she said.
Waggoner said that the situation now was not much different as far as the common people were concerned but that the people still had hope.
"When you have a huge population that is deeply poor and desperate for remedies, you're not going to jump off a cliff," she said.
She said she was returning to revise a book she had written about education in Central America.
Not everybody who is going is a returning visitor to Nicaragua, said Greta Ryan, Lawrence graduate student. She said she was going to interview women who fought in the revolution the Sandinistas won in 1981. She said she also wanted to learn about the people and culture of Nicaragua.
"Instead of getting a one-sided view. I'll have a very broad perspective when I come back," she said.

City discusses day care locations
By Katie Greenwald
Kansan staff writer
The City Commission last night discussed the operation of several day care homes on 23rd Street Terrace and directed the city attorney to look into the legality of the location of the operations.
The commissioners said they were concerned because Rosemary Valderge, Lawrence resident, operated several day care homes in one area.
On behalf of the neighborhood, Keith Johnson and Mark Elliott had written a letter to the commission. They said their main concern was that increased traffic posed a threat to their children.
Valverde runs three day care homes, two of which are on W. 23rd St. Terrace. Valverde plans to move the third
to a house adjacent to the other two.
City code defines a day care home as "an occupied residence in which a person provides day care for children other than his or her own family and the children of close relatives." The code says no more than 12 children may be cared for in each home.
Each home cares for a different age group and is licensed separately by the state, Valerde said.
But Commissioner Jo Andersen said she thought the separate day care homes actually were turning into one more large facility that has created more traffic in the area.
"People live in a residential area so they don't have to deal with traffic" she said.
Price Banks, director of planning for Lawrence and Douglas County, said that the planning commission could
rewrite the provision, but that it would not affect Valderde's business
"We can't zone retroactively." Banks said.
He said the intent of the code was to preserve the character of a residential area. The day care home must be maintained primarily as a residence. The owner is not required to reside at the home, but someone must live there. Valverde rents out the properties to tenants but runs the businesses.
Banks said Valverde was following the letter of the law. The commissioners were concerned that the intent of the law was different from the actual wording.
The commission voted to refer the matter to the city attorney about the legal wording and to the planning commission for the land use issue.
