Soviet Scientists Visit KU
Joint U.S.-Soviet Experiment Lauded
By BILL JONES
Kansan Staff Reporter
The results of a joint meteorological experiment conducted last winter in the Bering Sea should be of significance to ship navigation by both the United States an the Soviet Union, according to K. Y. Kondratsy, Soviet scientist.
Kondraytey, who is head of the department of atmospheric physics at the University of Leningrad, and two other Soviet scientists visited the University of Kansas yesterday as the guests of Richard K. Moore, professor of electrical engineering and director of the Remote Sensing Laboratory.
With Kondratyev were Victor S. Loschiv, senior scientist with the radioelectronics department of the Arctic Ocean; Martinekvich, an oceanographer who is a senior scientist at the Hydrometeorological Center of the U.S.S.R. in Moscow. The scientists were involved in a Soviet-american experiment studying the Bering Sea.
Kondratyev said more efficient navigation in northern latitudes would enable both countries to use fuel more efficiently. This would be especially important to the United States because of its energy crisis, he said.
"You are trying to discover new areas of energy, for instance, oil in northern latitudes. And you need to reach northern latitudes. And you need to reach systematic basal," Kordrayhev said.
"And we, the Soviet Union, have a lot of industrial interests in northern latitudes. We have already used the Northern Pacific Sea to attack the coast of the U.S.R.S. for about 30 years."
The Soviet-American expedition that was conducted in the Bering Sea between Feb. 15 and Mar. 7 of this year involved both Soviet and American ships and aircraft equipped with radar, microwave sensors and infrared scanners. Ice, wind and wave conditions were measured and precipitation zones were determined.
Data were obtained from different types of sensors simultaneously from ships and aircraft. The data are presented in Table 4.
one Soviet. In instruments mounted in helicopters and other aircraft were also used.
"We did not actually use satellites (to gather information), but we did use satellites' meteorological information to measure the climate for the next day," said Kondragrie.
Kondratyev said that they obtained good data, and that the teamwork between the Soviet and American scientists was very successful.
In all, nine joint flights were made during the three-week expedition, which Kondratsy was very good considering the conditions that often occur in the Bernini Sea.
Kondratyev has no definite plans had been made for another expedition. He said, however, he would like to study further such problems as the effects of sea foam on microwave reflection and the determination of ages of ice masses by microwave sensors.
Scientists from both countries will meet May 10-17 in Lesunga to discuss final plan for the research.
Musician Credits Training Here
Gary Foster, a 1961 graduate of the School of Fine Arts, considers his musical training from the University of Kansas a major reason for the success he has had recording music, playing in television orchestra and recording for motion picture sound tracks.
Now a resident of Los Angeles, Foster spoke here yesterday to students and faculty about his life as a performing artist. He is also the artistic artist in the Los Angeles area playing flute, clarinet, saxophone and recorder for recording studios and the television series "Cannon," "Streets of San Francisco," "Bernie Johnson" and the "Carol Burnett Tour."
His training in classical music at KU and no apparent effect on his present style. But
he emphasized the great importance of the training and said he was indebted to his instructors for the excellent background they gave him.
"Those professional musicians in L.A. who only play jazz or rock find themselves too often unemployed," Foster said. "Recording studio wants someone who can play a wide variety of music and play it well, and this school trained to do that."
Foster said he knew several musicians in the Johnny Carson Show orchestra who are equally competent in classical and popular music.
Foster said he didn't consider himself a commercial musician who plays only for himself.
"I play what I want, but that includes a wide variety of styles," he said.
Board OKs Title IV Plan
Federally funded proposals were the game of the game at last night's Board of Election.
Incorporated in the Title IV proposal is a four-year plan, begin last year, to improve the racial balance in all Lawrence elementary schools.
A Title IV proposal for $55,450 to fund a Race Minority High School in a racial minority students in all Lawrence schools was approved. Lawrence Unified School District No. 497 would contribute $38,264.
However, at last night's meeting, board members expressed concern that tying the plan to Title IU might force the school to increase tuition and possibly increase buidings of students.
The school district has voluntarily agreed to take steps to improve the balance over a four-year period and on this basis has been eligible for Title IV funds.
Carl Knox, superintendent, said he thought the worst that could happen would be him.
which might force the district, under court order. to implement a plan.
Ernest Coleman, director of federal programs, said the government couldn't force the district to fulfill its goal. But, he said, a federal group could bring suit against the district,
The board hear reports from George Crawford, assistant professor of education, and Evelyn Swartz, professor of education, on their proposals to set up teacher and administrator training centers. Swartz's proposal would be used by Lawrence school teachers if both Swartz's and the school district's proposals are funded.
One of those styles is jazz, which he exhibited to an audience yesterday in Swarthout Recital Hall with the KU Studio Jazz Band. Playing the soprane and also saxophone, clarinet and flute, Foster has his versatility with each instrument.
The recorder, which he learned to play at KU, was extremely valuable to him recently when he doubled it with the baritone saxophone to record Bob Dylan's sound track for the movie "Pat Garret and Billy the Kid." The Porter said, and he records it simply by conveying what he wants to the musicians by word and musical demonstrations.
Foster has recorded two jazz albums, "Subconscious" and "Grand Crut Classe," both on the Revelation label, and he recorded other albums with groups led by his brothers, Paul Fischer, Fischer, Mike Barone, Louis Bellson, Timmy Rowles and Warne Marsh.
In addition to his recording dates Foster teaches classes in improvisation and other jazz-related topics at Pandasena City Music School, he instructs several vuun musicians.
Foster said he believed appreciation of both jazz and classical music by one person wasn't unusual and certainly wasn't unhealthy.
"A musician who is familiar with the total spectrum of music will make a better contribution to those he teaches and to those he performs for," he said.
County to Discuss Jail Complex
The Douglas County commissioners will discuss final design plans for the proposed city-county judicial-law enforcement complex tomorrow.
The commission will also discuss plans to extend courthouse parking into South Park and to enlarge the park onto land owned by the county.
The judicial-complex plan, to be presented by Dick Peters of the architectural firm of Robertson, Peters and Williams, would put the new building east of
the courthouse, on the other side of New York City, in which would be closed and landscaped.
If the proposal is approved, county-owned land between Rhode Island and New Hampshire streets would become a park and a new parking lot would be constructed 110 feet south of North Park Street, partly on South Park grounds.
The commissioners will consider the final schematic design and preliminary location

Administration use of the computer indicated the least projected overall increase. In the light, moderate, and heavy user categories, computer use will increase 27 per cent, 56 per cent, and no increase, respectively.
Besides determining the future demands on KU's computing system, other tasks of the CRTF include the study of different systems' options and the determination of how these options will meet the needs, the development of plans for a new computer facility which depends on what type of system is chosen, and the determination of the cost of the total conversion plan which won't be known until after a few years. We have specifications presented to the vendor.
According to Wolfe, the University has a number of options to choose from in picking desks and dearest desks. These options include putting one on the desk or roof, placing many smaller units in various buildings on campus so that access to the library can be provided by users, or a combination of the two plans.
Wolfe and Terry agreed that the present computer facilities in Summerfield Hall were inadequate to meet the projected computer demands of the University.
Terry said the ideal requirements for total computing was about 40,000 square feet, much less than half of which is at Summerfield now.

Wolle said to develop plans for a new facility had been approved by the Board of regents. He also said present plants ranged from the remodeling of buildings on campus to house computer facilities to the construction of a new facility.

Terry said when the time comes to convert from the old system to the new, it would take three months or more to complete the operation.
