The driver of the car and another passenger were treated and released from Lawrence Memorial Hospital. Police said the convertible which was traveling north at a high rate of speed, crossed to the left side of the road and struck a parked car. The impact caused a chain reaction that damaged three other parked cars. An 18-year-old Shawnee man, who was asleep in the back seat of one of the parked cars at the time of the accident, was unhurt. Conference fails to prevent retrial No agreement was reached Friday in a settlement conference in Douglas County District Court aimed at averting a lengthy retrial in a suit brought by a professor against another professor and two former graduate students. In 1800, Michael Crawford, professor of anthropology, brought the $1.5 million suit against Henry Lundsgaarde, also a professor of anthropology, and the two former graduate students, Elizabeth Murray and Nancy Sempolski. The suit, which alleges that Crawford was slandered by the defendants, followed complaints made in 1977 by Murray and Sempolski. The complaints alleged that Crawford conducted research and medical procedures during 1960 expedition to the Central American country of Belize. in a hung jury in April. Ralph King, Douglas County District Court judge, said Thursday that he called the settlement conference to take care of matters that usually required pre-trial hearing. The pre-trial hearing was held before the original trial. The retrial is scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. on Dec. 3. King said Friday that three weeks in December had been set aside for the retrial. The trial in the slander suit ended Seniors will vote once instead of twice for this year's HOPE award winner, the president of the Board of Class Officers said Friday. The HOPE voting procedure has changed several times since the award was first given in 1960, said Dan Lowe, the president. Most recently, seniors have nominated four favorite teachers, voted for six finalists, and voted off of 12 seminalists and voted for the winner from the six finalists. By CHRISSY CLEARY Staff Reporter HOPE award voting altered BOCO decided that interviewing the semi-finalists would make the award less like a popularity contest. Lowe said. "Past award winners said they felt they saw the same teachers in the finals every year." Love said. "That's not bad, because those teachers are excellent, but there are other good teachers." This year, a committee composed of seniors will interview the 12 semi-finalists and pick six finalists by Oct. 19. Lowe said On Oct. 24 and 25, seniors will vote for the winner, who will be announced Oct. 27 at a ceremony before the KU-Oklahoma homecoming football game.

APPLICATIONS FOR HOPE award nominations were available in all dean's offices for the first time this year. Last year, seniors nominated to be voted for the award finalists at a booth in front of Wescoe Hall. sponsored by the Board of Class Officers. Lowe said having the nomination applications in the dean's offices allowed more students to vote and THE HOPE AWARD, short for Honor for the most Outstanding Progressive Educator, was originated by the class of 1859 and first given in fall 1960. The award is "There are some great engineering teachers," Lowe said. "But many engineering students aren't on campus that much and many didn't vote. But this year they can just go to their dean's office." "The they lose interest if they have to nominate and then vote twice," Lowe said. "The student committee also allows students to participate more." Lowe said he thought the new system would make seniors stay involved and enthusiastic about the HOPE award. LOWE, WHO WILL be a member of the committee, will appoint other committee members this week. He said he hoped representatives from different living groups would be on the committee to make it diverse. Lowe said he would choose other committee members from the BOCO Senior Committee, which plans to invest $10 million fast and senior homecoming events. This afternoon. Lowe is expected to announce the 12 semi-finalists nomi nated last week by seniors. ON JOB WINDOW REPAIR $19 LABOR mobile glass 1042 E. 23rd 842-2726 J.
