Search to replace Thompson begins
By HOLLIE B. MARKLAND Staff Reporter
The office of admissions is conducting a national search to replace Linda Thompson, director of admissions, whose last day off at the University of Kansas was Friday, the dean of educational services said yesterday.
Gil Dyck, dean of educational services, said no acting director of admissions would be appointed while the search was being conducted.
Dyck said he would not participate in any in-state or out-of-state student visits.
"I'll take over the position of director of admissions," Dyck said yesterday. "The added responsibility will be an overload, yes — but at this time of year, student visits are mainly over. There are not as many prospective students coming to camps when the weather is cold."
SENIOR VISTA.
Thompson, who was director for four years, will be married Saturday. She is moving to Bakersfield, Calif., where she has said she would pursue a career in higher education.
APPLICATIONS FOR THE POSITION are being accepted by the office of admissions until Dec. 14. Jr. Dykes will be filled by the middle of February.
The director of admissions is responsible for the administration of undergraduate admission, including the recruitment and selection of students.
Dyck said the person who filled the position would not necessarily be from KU.
The search will follow affirmative action procedures as do all, KU searches to fill vacant positions, said James Porter, the director of the office of affirmative action.
"We will choose the best person who applies for the job," he said.
Turner said the second step was for the office of affirmative action to approve the screening process. The applicants then are reviewed by a selection committee and the final selection is approved by the dean of the academic department where the position is being filled, Turner said.
The University advertises in the "Chronicle of Higher Education" and sends out information to admissions for Big Eight and Big 10 universities.
Turner said affirmative action procedures insured that people were given equal opportunity to apply and to be hired for jobs regardless of race, sex, religion, color, disability, veteran status, national origin, age or ancestry.
ON CAMPUS
"THE FIRST STAGE of the procedure is monitoring the advertisement of the position offered," Turner said. "The advertisement has to be placed where minorities and handicapped people can see the ad."
The office of affirmative action has final approval of the person appointed, he said.

Game provides food for agencies' efforts
By CHRIS BARBER Staff Reporter
Fewer people will go hungry in Lawrence this winter because of Saturday's basketball scrimmage, the Douglas County coordinator of a social service agency said yesterday.
Fans attending the game were asked to bring a can of food as admission. The food will be divided equally and stored in food banks at five Lawrence social service centers in the county coordinator for ECKAN, the East-Central Kansas Economic Opportunity Corporation.
"You cannot imagine how much we count on that food," Beers said. "We are very fortunate the bolt-torment will do this every year."
THE FIVE AGENCIES receiving the food are ECKAN, 331 Maine St.; the Salvation Army, 946 New Hampshire St.; Penn House, 1053 Pennsylvania St.; Ballard Community Center, 708 Elm St.; and the Lawrence Indian Center, 1910 Haskell Ave.
Beers said food from the game could last until spring, but it by no means eliminated the hunger problem.
Recent job cutbacks have increased the numbers of Lawrence citizens who are unable to pay all of their bills, she said.
"The problem is that demand is greater than the amount of food we have," she said.
"We're seeing more individuals in multiple-crisis situations with food, utilities and medical bills."
she said. "The are some old people who will not eat to pay their utility bills."
Beers said that food from the scrimmage came just as Lawrence utility bills skyrocketed with the onset of winter.
"We look forward to the game," she said. "It's a real lifesaver at a desperate time."
THE GAME IS not the only supplier for Lawrence's food banks, she said. Throughout the year, various churches take turns conducting can drives within their conregations.
The food banks are hit hardest in the summer. Beers said, when temperatures soar and raise utility bills. Also, food donations decrease because churches lose their student members. In winter, the basketball game plus a more generous attitude around Christmas help to alleviate hunger, she said.
Although this year's cans of food have not yet been counted, Beers said. The cans are animal-man made. Last year's scrimmage brought in about 8,000 cans.
Food can be donated at the Salvation Army anytime, she said.
ARVILA VICKERS, HEAD of the application review committee for the Emergency Service Council, said that the team is as possible for emergency situations but that it seldom lasted long.
"Very rarely do amounts given outlast the need." Vickers said.
KU's whistle takes holiday
Until 4:20 p.m. yesterday, the KU whistle lost its toot.
Normally the whistle signals the end of class periods. But yesterday, classes ended without the familiar blare.
Bob Porter, associate director of the physical plant, said yesterday, "Somebody turned the switch off and there was a holiday and shouldn't blow."
Although yesterday was Veteran's Day, classes still met. Government offices, banks and post offices were closed.
Late in the afternoon, the switch was turned back on. Porter said, and the whistle blew at 4:20 and 5:20 p.m.
The whistle's absence caused some students' timetables to be thrown off.
"Doesn't it drive you nuts?" said Sharon Oxley, Raytown, Mo., senior.
Heather Jenista, Lawrence senior,
said, "I knew it hadn't blown all day.
It threw me off a little this morning."
Jenista, who lives near campus,
said she used the whistle as an alarm
clock. She woke up late yesterday
morning.
"I always heard that whenever the whistle doesn't blow, there's no school." she said with a laugh.
Some people, however, don't rely on the whistle.
Porter said, "I hear it blow and don't pay any attention to it."
Filing date extended for coalitions' audits
By JOHN HANNA Staff Reporter
Seven coalties with candidates running for Student Senate offices have spent $1,947.88 so far in this year's election, hand-written audit forms and receipts show.
Davidson said that because of time restraints, he had not been able to complete a proper audit form.
Audit forms for campaign expenses were due at 5 p.m. yesterday in the office of student life. But Thom Davidson, chairman of the Elections Commission, said candidates would be given an extra day to complete their forms.
Under Senate rules, coalitions or candidates that fail to submit audits will not have their votes tabulated. But Davidson said he did not know whether that rule applied to write-in candidates.
THE BEAUTIFULL DAY COMMISSION, whose candidates for student body president and vice president were asked as write-ins did not file an audit.

Seven coilings — & Toto Too, Fresh Vegetables, Frontier, Momentum, Navy Jack, Progressive and Reality — filed either receipts or audit reports.

The audits do not give the total amount that the coalitions have spent, he said, because some of their bills for services, such as printing, have not come in. Candidates must
