Laundromats offer variety of atmospheres
By the Kansan Staff
Studying can be procrastinated, but washing clothes is a grim fact of student life that can't be avoided.
"I hate doing laundry," said Keith Chilcott, Topeka senior, while perspiring in the unairconditioned Independent Coin-Op Laudromat at 900 Mississippi St.
"I do my laundry here because I can walk the Kwik Shop and get a dish to eat."
Laundry doesn't need to be dreaded. There are eight locations in Lawrence to do laundry, each with a different atmosphere and a unique clientele.
Dennis "Boog" Highberger, student body vice president, frequents the Bungalow Easy Wash at 1900 Barker St. Rusty chairs and withered posts line the rickety porch of the laundromat.
"But it's a nice porch," Highberger said, "and one of our ondromat in a corner with porch."
Inside the airconditioned laundromat, the washers and dryers rumble. The Bungalow is open 24 hours a day, and washing machines cost 60 cents per load.
The Norge Laundry and Cleaning Village, 2346 Iowa St., advertisements, "U Leave-Um. We Clean-Um." in the front window. It costs 40 cents per pound to have someone wash, dry
and fold clothes. Plus, a dry-cleaning service is available.
Another laudromat is the 777 Laundromat, 19th and Louisiana streets. The inside is a typical laudromat with vending machines, pay phone and a clock. But the sign is an eye-catcher.
Frank Calandrino, former custodian at 777 Laundromat, said that the sevens stood for forgiveness.
"Jesus said to forgive seven times seven. This sign is a way of spreading God's word. People don't think it's funny to see a bumper sticker with Jesus' name on it. Why is a sign so strange?"
