Carbon monoxide is an ill wind that blows no good. It's a deadly presence in homes where appliances like the furnace or water heater fail to burn fuel efficiently Or where clogged chimneys vent improperly.
And because carbon monoxide poisoning results from an invisible, odorless gas, its effects are often mistaken for fatigue or flu symptoms. A mistake that can be FATAL.
That's why it's important to have your heating and ventilation checked regularly. Also be wary of persistent nausea, headaches, ringing in the ears, and drowsiness. Especially where windows and doors are sealed shut.
In that event, the thing to do is to go outside and get some fresh air. Then if you don't improve, it could be a bug going around. At least you'll feel better knowing it's not the FLUE!

SenEx nixes sale of sample books
By Yvonne Guzman
Kansan staff writer
Senate Executive Committee members yesterday voted to recommend that University Council adopt a policy barring professors from selling complimentary textbooks to bookstores.
The action came in response to a letter SentEx received last week informing it of a relatively new Associated American Publishers policy requesting that instructors not sell complimentary textbooks. The suggestion that the University of Kansas consider adopting a similar policy.
The letter from AAP stated that the problem of instructors selling books sent to them by publishers resulted in upward pressure on the price of textbooks and a loss of about $10 million in royalties to authors.
A letter received last year by SenEx from the KU bookstore said it was not the bookstore's policy to purchase complimentary copies of textbooks from an individual. Such books may be found in the bookstore, because they may be purchased wholesale from used book dealers.
"I suppose that the response we got from the bookstore was the only thing we got in terms of a University degree," carlsonman Frances Intemmany
SenEx members concluded that it should be permissible for faculty
members to keep or throw away complimentary textbooks but that they shouldn't resell them. Faculty members are obligated to return unwanted books.
In other business, SenEx will contact the School of Architecture and the School of Engineering to discuss a possible discrepancy between individual policy and KU policy concerning students enrolled in ROTC classes.
Both schools have policies that provide for ROTC students who do not receive commissions or who do not complete their course of study, Ingemann said. Other schools do not have provisions for these students.
"What I want to do is suggest that maybe the schools delete that 'commission' from the wording and give it a new title, edict as they see fit." Ingmann said.
William Scott, presiding officer or University Council, said he did not think it was clear to the deans of each school that something in their school policy might be contradictory to University policy.
The difference came to the attention of SenEx when it was preparing for a University Senate mail-bail vote on whether to allow ROTC credit to count toward the University's 124-hour minimum graduation requirement. Faculty members voted Monday to continue allowing ROTC course to count toward graduation requirements at KU.
Weigand may head a state commission
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — Nestor Weigand, the Wichita real estate executive defeated in the Republican primary election, is expected to be named head of a commission to find ways to save money in state government
GOP sources who did not want to be identified said yesterday that they expected Hayden to appoint a panel similar to the Grace Commission named in the early 1980s by then-President Ronald Reagan. The commission recommended efficiencies in the federal government.
John Pinegar, Hayden's re-election campaign manager, declined to confirm that a "Weigand Commission" is being planned. He did confirm that Hayden and Weigand met for two hours Saturday in Wichita to discuss general election campaign strategy and other matters.
"They discussed a great number of ideas and issues that were of concern
to both of them." Pinegar said. "In the near future, I'm sure will be announcing some of their plans from the meeting."
The Grace Commission, named for international businessman Peter Grace who headed it, recommended some 200 changes in how to save the federal government money. However, many of the changes were both politically impractical, and only a handful were accepted by Congress.
Weigand proposed the creation of a Grace-type commission during his campaign. He said that it was needed to help ease the tax burden on Kansans.
Pinegar said that Hayden and Weigand met at Jabara Airport in Wichita on Saturday morning, Vern Chesnih of Ottawa, former Republi-can charperson and Weigand's campaign manager attended the meeting.

Missouri school seeks gag for student paper
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. — Southwest Missouri State University is seeking a federal gag order to try to block a teacher's promotion in the student newspaper
The university asked the U.S. District Court to prevent the Southwest Standard from publishing information it has obtained from unofficial sources. The school contends the publication of such information could jeopardize more than $9 million in federal financing for the university
and its students.
The request stems from a lawsuit filed in January by Traci Bauer, Standard editor.
Bauer contends she should be able to see reports on campus criminal investigations. The university, however, contends the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act prohibits the release of such reports.
Attorney Douglas W. Greene, who represents Bauer, has opposed the request for a gag order.
