Editor wins award
Eugene Patterson, Pulitzer Prize-winning editor and chief executive officer of the St. Petersburg (Fla.) Times, will receive the 1800 William Allen White Foundation Award for Journalistic贡献。the author of the Foundation, announced recently.
"For more than three decades, Gene Patterson has been an extraordinary force in American journalism, combining the roles of writer-editor with management in ways that have produced outstanding publications," Merritt said.
Patterson said the autobiography of William Allen White inspired him to go into journalism.
He said journalists today needed to be skeptical, but never cynical, and investigative as well as explanatory.
"We have not yet begun to approach the level of simplicity and clarity of the issues that our complex era requires," Patterson said.
In addition to his duties on the Times, Patterson also serves as chief executive of the Washington-based publication, Congressional Quarterly.
Merritt, the executive editor of *Wichita Angle and Beacon*, said, "He has innovated without sacrificing fundamental reportorial values and has contributed strongly within the community through his activities in associations."
Patterson won his Pulitzer Prize for editorial writing in 1966 and is the chairman of the Modern Media Institute in St. Petersburg.
Patterson said he would be at Kansas University to receive his award February 8 and would prepare a speech to deliver that day.
Emerson Lynn, Jr., president of the William Allen White Foundation, said the award recognizes and encourages excellence in journalism.

Senate to consider board for off-campus students
A steering committee was set up this summer to prepare a bill that would establish the Off-Campus Board, a campaign promise made by Berlin.
Bernie said the board would represent the interests of off-campus students as well as act as an information center.
"I think an organization that would represent S1 percent of the student body in a university as large as KU would have a huge impact," he added, "in improving housing conditions." Berlin said.
The board would be set up to help off-campus students with questions ranging from landlord-tenant disagreements to available entertainment on campus.
Berlin said once the board was recognized
formally by the Senate, it would send information to off-campus students outlining the new service.
George Gomez, student body vice president, said the board would offer much-needed "practical help."
Berlin said the next Student Senate meeting would be in about two weeks and the bill would be considered then.
"We want to let more people know that all these services are available, because there is so much available," Gamer said.
Members of the board would include Barry shinkinsky, off-campus manager, Julie Krauss, an assistant Vice President Services Director, and a representative from the Student Senate Services Com
Mahaffey works as a liaison between the student body and the Student Senate.
The Student Senate is taking applications for additional positions. Applications for the board are due 5 p.m. Friday.

Briscoe said that his office had talked with Casson Construction Co., Topeka, the builders of new Green, and nearly all of
"We felt that some of the larger panels were not supported properly." Briscoe said. "We required the contractor to put in more supports."
Briscoe said the state also had required Casson to patch some cracked panels with envoy.
The sandblasting is being done to change the color of the concrete panels, Briscoe said.
"The original specifications called for warmtone concrete," which would look like limestone. "Brisco said."
