Praeger seeks money for center at Haskell
By Abbie Jones Special to the Kansan
Lawrence City Commissioner Sandra Praeger was in New York this week on her first trip to find funds for a multipurpose cultural center on the Haskell Indian Junior College campus.
During her trip, she planned to speak to representatives from Indian philanthropic organizations to determine the possibility of receiving funds.
Praeger is president of the Haskell Indian Junior College Foundation, which was formed last year to raise money for the college. She and Gerald Gipp, president of the college, will return today from the New York seminar on higher education for Indians.
The center, still in the planning stage, may include a museum, research capabilities, galleries, permanent and traveling exhibitions, a performance hall and a snack and gift shop. Praeger said.
Praeger said the ultimate goal of the visit to New York was to get fun
ding. She said it would be a good chance to share concerns with educators.
Members of Haskell faculty met last week to discuss fund-raising possibilities for the center. Praeger and Gipp are expected to report any progress made in New York to these members.
"This was the first meeting with this group of people." Praeger said about the meeting with Haskell faculty. "It was primarily just to brainstorm and get some ideas about what the facility should include. The center could be an exciting learning experience and provide an opportunity for some good research and study."
The cultural center could be run by students and could potentially make money for the school. Praeger said.
About 35 people from across the United States who are associated with Indian higher education were invited to the two-day seminar in New York, which is sponsored by the Phelps-Stokes Fund, and co-sponsored by the Rockefeller and Ford foundations, she said.
Hospital lobby becomes bazaar store
By Stefani Day Of the Kansan staff
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — The lobby of Bell Memorial Hospital at the University of Kansas Medical Center looked more like a crowded retail store than a hospital yesterday and Wednesday during the Med Center Auxiliary's Fall Bazaar.
The annual bazaar, which raised more than $10,000 last year, benefits organizations affiliated with the Med Center, Louise Redford, co-chairman of the Fall Bazaar, said yesterday. Proceeds from this year's bazaar will go to the Jay-Care Learning Center.
Yesterday, eager shoppers bought dolls, paintings, books and other
crafts from local artists who brought their wares to the hospital lobby. The auxiliary asked craftsmen to donate 30 percent of their sales to the bazaar. Redford said. Nearby, other shoppers silently bid for antique furniture, silver trays and even a Kansas City Chiefs pennant that was autographed by the players. The items were donated by auxiliary members and local businesses.
"I cannot tell you how busy we've been." Redford said. "There are 6,000 employees and most of them have probably been down at least once."
Redford said most of the shoppers were Med Center employees, although some people from the community stopped by, and some shop- pers were patients in the hospital
"And it's entertainment for them,
especially the children."
"The nurses bring the patients down in a wheelchair if they can," Redford said. "They're some of our best customers."
Charlene Lawwill, chairman of the Fall Bazaar Committee, said that baked goods were the fastest sellers.
Among the cakes, cookies, breads and brownies made by auxiliary members were 50 apple pies.
"They sold almost as fast as we put them out." Lawwill said.
The bazaar also included a plant sales white elephant sale and a luncheon
The auxiliary is a 285-member
organization that donates time and provides financial support to several Med Center projects. A member can be anyone who wants to help the University, she said, although most members have some connection with the Med Center.
The auxiliary's primary sources of income are two gift shops in the hospital and the annual bazaar, said Redford.
Although proceeds from the bazaar will not be tabulated until this weekend, Redford said, the auxiliary hopes to raise about $11,000.
Jay-Care will use the money for general maintenance, such as painting and buying furniture, said Jan Kalny, director of the center.
"Early Frost" Watches may help AIDS
By a Kansan reporter
The Topeka AIDS Project (TAP) is sponsoring 5 "Early Frost" Watches in Topeka and Lawrence. Clubs, churches and private homes will hold viewing gatherings, requesting a $10 donation from those who attend. Many gatherings will hold a discussion after the movie.
The national broadcast of "An Early Frost," a television drama about the effect of AIDS on an American family, may help raise money for, and focus attention on, AIDS projects around the country.
As many as 10,000 Watches are expected to be held in more than 100 cities around the country. All the money raised will remain in the communities to help local AIDS patients.
The director of TAP said yesterday that he hoped the Watches would raise $2,000 to help people in and around Topteka who have AIDS.
induces to help local AIDS patients. "An Early Frost," to be broadcast Monday by NBC-TV, stars Ben Gazarra, Gena Rowlands and Aidan Quinn, and portrays the devastating effects of AIDS on a young attorney and his family. It is the first television drama about the AIDS crisis.
