Local physician dies after fight with illness
Dr. James W. Campbell, who was recognized for more than two decades of service to the Student Health Service when he retired in May 1983, died Friday after a long illness.
A funeral for Dr. Campbell, 67,
of 1607 Stratford Road, was held
yesterday at First Presbyterian
Church, 2415 W. 23rd St. Burial
was at Lawrence Memorial Park
Cemetery, 1517 E. 15th St.
Dr. Campbell served at Watkins Memorial Hospital from 1967 to 1983. He was a professor of hematology at the University of Kansas and an associate professor at the College of Health Sciences. He returned to Kentucky to Watkins Hospital while in private practice before 1967.
"I overheard one of our doctors refer to Dr. Campbell as a doctor's doctor — that was the kind of respect he generated," said James Strobel, director of Student Health Service.
"I DON'T THINK the man ever took a coffee break either. He just put his nose to the grindstone and took care of sick people."
Dr. Campbell was born June 25, 1917, in Kansas city, Mo. He graduated from Kansas City Junior College and received his
medical doctorate from KU in 1940.
He was an Army medical officer in World War II. Raymond Schwegler, a physician with the Student Health Service who had known Dr. Campbell since the war, said Dr. Campbell had been "in very active service" during the war.
he also was a member of the First Presbyterian Church and a former chairman of the board of Lawrence Presbyterian Manor.
Dr. Campbell was a former member of the board of directors, the Douglas Department and the Bert Nash Department Mental Health Center.
Dr. Campbell is survived by his wife, Jane; a daughter, Susan Thompson, Olathe; three sons, Scott and Sam, Lawrence, and Stephen, Prairie Village; a sister, Julia Woodson, Kansas City, Mo.; and four grandchildren.
Memorial contributions may be made to the American Cancer Society, the Douglas County Heart Fund or the Lawrence Presbyterian Manor. Contributions may be made in care of Warren McElwain Mortuary, 120 W. 13th St.

Ambler urges organizations to foster campus tolerance
"This letter is just one of several things on the whole issue," Ambler said.
A letter from David Ambler, vice chancellor for student affairs, asks student leaders to help "maintain an atmosphere on the campus where people may explore ideas, exchange thoughts and express their views on any subject without fear of reprisal, intimidation or injury."
Ambler said he hoped to have a statement of the responsibilities of
The presidents, chairmen and other leaders of all groups registered in the Organizations and Activities Center and all living groups will receive copies of the letter. Ambler said yesterday.
One letter is part of an effort by the administration to combat bigotry on campus. Last week, Ambler ambered the president's use of a task force to study the problem.
"Then we'll begin contacting people to see whether they're willing to participate," he said. "Interestingly, people have been calling and saying that they've heard about the task force and would like to be on it. I'd rather avoid extraordinary. Most people shy away from serving on committees."
The letter includes an excerpt from Chancellor Gene A. Budig's 1983 convolution address
Organizations are asked in the letter to display the statement in a prominent place where it will remind members of "the need for all of us to work and protect the precious freedoms we enjoy in the University community."

The statement reads in part: "Clearly, there can be no place in this University for bigotry, intolerance, racial or sexual discrimination, anti-Semitism, and the like. They insult our institution." They are traitory to the nature of a university, they cannot be tolerated here."
