Cookie store, Kinko's to move into old building
By DAN HOWELL Staff Reporter
The years have left their mark on the old house at the north end of Oread Avenue.
But times are changing for the large frame building, which has withstood residential and industrial stress.
Tomorrow, Kay's Good Cookies will open in the west side of the first floor, and the local manager of Kinko's Copies said yesterday that the company had just signed a lease for
Larry Weaver/KANSAN
The building stands between Hawk's Crossing and Indiana Street. The cookie store's address is 624 W. 12th St.
Kay Benjamin and her husband, Gene Verna, owners of Kay's Good Cookies, said this week that the store would offer a variety of foods but that Benjamin's unusual cookies were the basis for the business.
THE COOKIES ARE unique because they
chunk of chocolate instead of chocolate
chip.
The store also will offer muffins, brownies,
ice cream, beverages, soups and sandwiches.
Loretta Gantenbeen, local manager for Kinko's Copyes, said that company was expanding to three stores in Lawrence because its managers saw a good opportunity.
She said the location would be more convenient for students, who comprise about 60 percent of the business at the store at 904 Vermont St. But the stores will have different features.

"We're talking about making it a totally self-service store," she said.
She said she expected business conditions to be different at the Lawrence store.
BENJAMIN SAID SHE and Verna had three cookie stores in malls in the Kansas City area where they live. They opened the first store in 1981, and a fifth store will open in Oak Park Mall in November.
"I'm definitely projecting less volume in the summer," she said.
Ann Wikund, director of membership and community affairs at the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, said seasonal factors and the often affected businesses nike kc.pcdn.
"I don't think adults are as flexible as college students about walking," she said.
She said to succeed, businesses needed to
have hours and offer products that appealed to their customers.
"THAT PARTICULAR BUILDING has not been good luck, but I don't think any body has tried a pick up food kind of business before," she said.
Jeff Morrow, who bought the building four months ago, said a string of businesses had used the building since 1918. Before that Jeff Morrow was not sure of the building's age.
He said it had been a Harzfeld's store for many years and also a restaurant and the Jay Shoppe. The last occupants — a health food store, an ice cream shop and a small clothing store — closed business there about four years ago.
Financial and zoning problems have kept the building empty since. Morrow said.
Morrow said that he bought the building knowing he could find tenants and that he had turned down 15 offers before finding prospects that suited him.
THAT AREA OF the Oread neighborhood seems ripe for renewal, he said, though changes might be politically difficult because of zoning issues.
Benjamin and cookie store manager Donna Johnson Rea said the store would have about 10 employees. Tentative hours are noon to 7 p.m. on Sundays and 8 a.m. to midnight the other days of the week.
The Lawrence store will sell eight kinds of cookies, she said, with three kinds of chocolate. Workers will be able to put cookie bits into the ice cream.
Benjamin said response of customers ultimately would determine the store's hours and menu.
Operators of several businesses with similar products said they did not feel pressured to change.
Ralph Smith, coowner of Joe's Bakery,
eat W 9th St., said the public made the
cake.
"It's fine with me," he said. "That's what makes America."
SMITH SAID HIS bakery relied strongly on student customers and usually closed between school terms.
James Long, director of the Kansas Union, said he did not know whether the store would be open on Monday.
Rea said the cookie store could have a big first day because the University of Kansas has a home football game. She plans to have them outdoors to attract pedestrian customers.
"Maybe that will become a game tradition," she said.
Benjamin said she expected to attract customers from town through advertising, promotions and the quality of her products.
She said the store soon would offer a delivery service and a service to mail gifts.
SenEx to prepare report about alcohol by classes
By DAVID LASSITER Staff Reporter
Professors soon will be informed of the possible results of serving alcohol to students at off campus gatherings.
The University Senate Executive Committee agreed yesterday to prepare a statement to faculty to inform them of their responsibilities in giving classes of campus and at their homes.
Sonia Ann Juola and Fred Altheide of the Douglas County Citizens Committee on alcoholism met with SenEx yesterday to discuss their concern about the amount of drinking and driving associated with some off-campus classes held by professors.
Altheide said that DWI and OUI offenders were sent to the Counseling and Resource Center, a division of Douglas County alcoholism committee, to determine whether they have a drinking problem. After the center assigns treatment for the offender.
Jola said that a number of the student DWI and OUI offences that they handled were related to students' driving after a class visit or professor's home, where alcohol was served.
DWI is Driving While Intoxicated, and OUI is Operating a vehicle While Under the Influence.
with OUI while returning home from an off-campus final." Altheide said.
At the final, alcohol was served. On his way home at night, he was picked up by city police. His blood alcohol level was tested at 0.20. He could not have been walking normally."
The limit of blood alcohol level while driving in Kansas is 0.10 percent.
Altheide and Jula said that they didn't want to make judgments. They just wanted to make the faculty board aware of what was taking place
"Last spring there was a student charged
Juola and SenEx agreed that once the professors understood what was happening, they probably would be more careful about the amount of alcohol they served.
SenEx also agreed that the professors should be reminded that serving alcohol to minors and the distribution of any controlled substance at their gatherings was illegal.
In other business, SenEx discussed the procedures for finding a replacement for University Ombudsman William Balfour, who plans to retire.
The committee agreed that it would wait until Balfour could attend a SenEx meeting to discuss the requirements of his replacement.
Arno Knapper, chairman of SenEx, said that SenEx hoped to have three possible replacements for Balfour by the end of the semester.
Workers anticipated shutdown

Federal employees in several Lawrence offices were sent home yesterday afternoon, and officials at Haskell Indian Junior College were prepared to cancel classes today if the Senate did not approve the money needed to keep the offices open.
Charles Geboe, Haskell vice president, said yesterday that non-essential employees would have been put on unpaid furlough beginning at 5 p.m. yesterday if Congress had not approved the budget measure.
A stop-gap measure was approved, however, to keep the government going
Classes 'today' would have 'been' closed, and only Gibbe, dormitory, security, and a few other management employees would have reported for work today.
"I HAPPENS ALMOST every year,
then I go out at the 11th hour
that beats."
Gebo said that he was expecting "business as usual" for today but that not knowing whether classes would be held was difficult.
It's terrible. When we lose a day of school, it always bothers me. Every day is impatient.
Four employees of the Farmers Home Administration district office. 236 Ridge
Court, were sent home yesterday after noon, but a clerk said that no one was apprehensive.
"I don't think anyone is really worried," said Louis Schwartz the clerk. "This happened before, and they always seem to have money." We just have to sit it out and wait.
About 60 employees of the U.S. Geological Survey were put on leave about 1 p.m. said Jesse McNielis, who is in charge of the Survey's computers.
"WE'RE FURLOUGHED," he said late yesterday afternoon. "We were notified electronically. Most everybody is gone now."
Robert Bartlett, a veterinarian who directs the program review office of the Department of Agriculture's Food and Safety Inspection Service, 2400 W. 31st St., said employees in his office had been told to report to work this morning, with the possibility of closing the office at noon if funds had not been approved by then.
Bartlett said he thought a complete government shutdown would have been more expensive than cutting back the number of employees.
"There was a government survey done after this happened the last time that showed that shutting down for a day cost more than the wages saved," he said. "The people we cut, the cutting people off was more expensive than not paying them for that day."
