By STEVE BLEAU
Kanaan Staff Reporter
Somewhere, somebody is listening to his records on some very expensive stereo equipment—and he has been closed for the rest of the semester, needs the equipment back.
During Thanksgiving vacation, the coffeehouse was broken into and its stereo equipment was stolen. Access was gained through a window that had been prized open.
Security and Parking by a Coca-Cola driver who had gone to the coffeehouse to fill the vending machines, according to John K. Hammond, chairwoman, and manager of the coffeehouse.
Martin said the Coke man went in to fill the machines and noticed the window open and mud on the floor. He then called Security and Parking to investigate.
KU Joins Skylab in Study
Security and Parking estimated that the break-in occurred between 10 p.m. Nov. 20, 2014 at 8:55 a.m. in the parking lot of Winnfield Mall.
The Skylaia astronauts and University of Kansas researchers will cooperate in a unique project to search for Clark researchers today, barring bad weather and trouble with the spacecraft, according to Harold L. Yarger, Kansas Geological Survey research associate and professor at U.K.
The study was planned for last Thursday but was cancelled because of mechanical failure.
Yarger said KU personnel were involved mainly in analyzing water samples for chemical composition and for the amount of material suspended in the water. The analyses will be compared with analyses obtained from sensors aboard Skylab.
Yarger said the purpose of the project wasn't to determine the water's quality but rather to determine whether the characterization was detected by the space craft's sensors.
Pach Urged to Adopt A More Open Policy
Pachacamac (Pach) should become a public organization, two key administrators and the student body president said yesterday.
Donald K. Alderson, dean of men; Richard Von Ende, executive secretary; and Mert Buckley, Wichita senior and assistant professor, each should discount his secret activities.
"If that doesn't occur, then I would urge leaders of the Interfraternity Club (IFC) and fraternities to declare themselves free of this influence." he said.
Alderson said Pach was a known and recognized campus organization until the mid 1950s. He said he didn't know why Pach had gone underground.
"A secret organization will inevitably and impede working relationships," Alden said.
He said he didn't believe the organization had a vital influence on University policy.
"others is detrimental to the community," he said, "and particularly to some of the groups they (Pach members) allegedly want to assist."
Aderson said the fraternity and IFC leaders he knew were adequately prepared for their positions of leadership and decision-making and didn't need "an underground, self-appointed group to guide them.
"If the organization's goals are good for fraternities and the University, then I fail to see why this effort cannot be displayed in the open," he said.
estimated the value of the stolen equipment at about $1,150.
Von Ende said he could see no reasons for the secrecy of the organization.
wartm and last week that the estimate is low and that the equipment was worthy.
"Anyone that has been active on campus or more in our care of its (Pach) activities, Vot Endure."
Buckley said, "The existence of Pach has been no secret in recent years, only the presence of a man named Pach."
"If Pach is making decisions that affect university students, it ought to be known," he said.
He said he would prefer to see the group become more public "so that this air of authority can be spread."
Members shouldn't be forced to make themselves known, he said. However, there should be a spokesman for the group, Buckley said.
Final Tenure Policy To Be Announced
The final statement on tenure policy at the University of Kansas will be released today, Rick Von Ende, KU Executive Secretary, said yesterday.
"If the equipment isn't recovered," Martin said. "I don't know what we'll do with it."

The report was to have been released yesterday, but was delayed.
Units of the Lawrence Fire Department were called to Spencer Research Library yesterday morning by a malfunctioning fire department spokesman according to department spokesmen.

Student interest in the coffeehouse will be an important factor in determining whether it will reopen or not. According to Badger and Furness, student interest had been warning a recent month.
"It's hard to draw people from places like Oliver Hall and GSP over to a coffeehouse on Daisy Hill," Badger said. "We've had advertising problems, too. There was a lot of red tape about putting a sign in front of Lewis that we still haven't settled yet."

Badger also said it was possible that the coffeehouse coordinating committee had the wrong idea about what type of atmosphere the students preferred in a coffeehouse, and that this might be a reason for the loss of interest on the students' part.
"We die to try and see what we've done wrong," he said. "If it is something we can do better."
According to Badger, other groups have requested the space that the coffeehouse
