Bicentennial Plans Begun Commission Asks Community to Participate
By ROY CLEVENGER Kaman Staff Reporter
Members of the Lawrence Bicentennial Commission last night asked that all segments of the community participate in local planning of the nation's bicentennial
"The bicentennial celebration can be a matrix for community development," said Ted Kennedy, RFD 2, committee chairman. "This isn't just for a few of us. It's for the whole town. We want every organization and segment of the community involved."
Members decided to enlarge the commission from its present 13 members to about two times that number. The committee includes two University of Kansas faculty members, W. Stiff Robinson, chairman of the Commission, and Paul Wilson, professor of law.
THE COMMITTEE WILL ask churches, schools, youth groups and service and patriotic organizations for representatives and sugestions for local celebrations.
The committee also voted to apply to the American Revolution Bicentennial Commission (ARBC) in Washington, D.C., for designation as a Bicentennial Community. In order to receive this status, the city must:
—Organize a special bicentennial coordinating committee.
mating committee
— Plan a Bicentennial celebration that will
include at least one permanent reminder of the community's effort.
Submit an application through the Kansas ARBC.
—Obtain the approval of the Lawrence City Commission, and
Bicentennial Community recognition will permit the committee to display the ARBC flag and emblem during its visit as a community resource. The recieved recognition as a Bicentennial Community.
The committee also began detailed planning of Lawrence's celebration. Kennedy suggested that the city help organize facilities at the Clinton dam project.
SOME MEMBERS suggested building multi-purpose community center, which would include a large meeting room, town museum, art display gallery and crafts
Other proposals included remodeling the old library building, assisting in the completion of the Watkins Community Museum, building a year-round swimming pool and promoting sculpture and a dramatic product at KU.
Kennedy said the basic emphasis of the celebration had not been decided, and final plans would be made early next year after the committee expanded.
Robinson urged the committee to center the celebration "both on various parts of our heritage and on a projection into our future."
-Heritage 76, an examination of America's first 200 years.
- Festival USA, including pageentry,
displays and exhibits,
—Horizons '76, an emphasis on the future and improvement of the quality of life.

Following that tournament, the two teams went to the University of Northern Colorado tournament where they tied each other for fourth place.
Goldman and Webster won a separate trophy, the First Place Swing Award, for the outstanding performance in both tournaments.
Four other teams also competed in a tournament last weekend at Western Illinois University in Macomb, III. The team of Mike Steele, Salina freshman, and Keith Krebhel, Moundridge freshman, took fourth in the junior division.
The celebration will be based on three thematic areas established by the ARC. THREE

Departments should begin to consider ways "to tighten their belts" and to limit paper consumption in case of a shortage, he said.
Brass Sousaphones Sound, Look Better
The University of Kansas Marching Band is performing this year with 12 new brass sousaphones, according to Robert Foster, director of bands.
The new instruments, which were first used at the Minnesota game, are specifically for performance. They replace microphones which will be used only for rehearsal.
"With the addition of the new sousphones, KU will have one of the better looking marching bands in the country and ultimately the best in the Midwest," Foster said.

Shortages will occur first, he said, in the lower grades of paper, which return the highest grade.
The brass sousaphones were purchased with funds from the KU Endowment Association and the Greater University Fund. The new sousaphones are expected to last much longer than the old fiberglass ones.
Instrument cases, leather straps, mouth pieces and goose necks were also pur-
"The old supersones are held together by scotch tape and wire and have become the most important of all."
Brass is also a better amplifier of sound than fiberglass, is easier to repair and has a smaller weight.
The KU band department loans the sousphones, as well as any other instrument, to any band member, but has no record of performing new instruments or repair old ones.
"The new sousaphas will help fill a great void in our instrument supply."
