said that only the dining room had air conditioning but that people still were eating less because of the heat. The cooler dining room does provide relief of another kind.
"Some people sleep in there, like on the floor," she said.

asked about the weather.
"It's simply too hot," she said. "Walking between classes can really get to you."
Ellen Kirkland, nurse in the Lawrence Memorial Hospital emergency room, said good common sense was the best thing to use to safely beat the heat.
She said people should not overdress, should stay out of the sun and drink "lots and lots and lots" of liquids. She also said that if a person must be in the sun, frequent breaks in the day are necessary.
"The older or younger a person is, the more they might be affected by the heat." Kirkland said. "This means you should watch people you know who might need more
LAWRENCE PUBLIC SCHOOLS began the school year with a shortened day and will continue to dismiss students one hour earlier than usual through the rest of the week because of the heat, school officials said. They expect to decide today about any schedule changes for next week.
help in the heat."
Other city and utility officials said that most services were continuing without much disruption.
A countywide ban on open fires will continue through at least Monday, according to the county commission office. It includes campfires and outdoor cooking except in permanent fixtures.
Police and fire officials reported no incidienis caused by heat except for some increase in overheated cars.
T. A. Mindrup, division manager of Kansas Power & Light Co., said that electricity demand was high but had set no records and that equipment was working well.
Residents and staff members at KU's eight residence halls "must remain dedicated" to the controversial new visitation policy, James Jeffley, president of the Association of University Residence Halls, said last night.
AURH sets appeals board
By the Kansan Staff
Jeffley said he was opposed to the excessive paperwork created by registration cards that hall residents and their guests now must fill out, but urged residents to keep a positive attitude toward the policy.
"As long as we remain dedicated to the system, it will work." he told about 30 people at the semester's first AURH general assembly at Lewis Hall. "The residence hall is your home — your home away from home. Residents should be
secure in their homes."
in response to the more stringent visitation policy, AURH last night voted to create a judiciary board to handle the larger case load of security violations expected.
Mark von Schlemmer, Hashingter Hall president, questioned whether a judiciary board was necessary so soon after the visitation policy had been passed.
"We've only been in school for two weeks," he said. "Isn't this a bit premature?"
Jeffley said the complexity of the new policy warranted a separate appeals board for the entire residence hall system although some residence halls had their own judiciary systems.
"If there's one standard policy of violations, there should be a standard policy of appeals," he said.

significant support factor for some sports." THE MARGIN OF EXCELLENCE fund allows contributors to donate money to designated athletic programs.
Bob Frederick, assistant athletic director for the Williams Fund, said that only 2 percent of private donations were given to the margin of excellence program.
"It at some point down the line we are able to attract more people into Memorial Stadium, hopefully we'll be in a situation where there won't be so much pressure for donations, but we are still going past that," he said. "we had to meet the Williams Fund budget to avoid operating at a deficit."
If private funds were not essential for the athletic department's budget, he said, more time could be spent attracting margin of excellence funds.
LONNY ROSE, ASSISTANT athletic director, said that his department had discovered that most athletes needed support systems regardless of their level of academic background.
