Prof denounces choice of Tacha for court judge
A KU associate professor of English opposed the nomination of Deanell Tacha, vice chancellor for academic affairs; as judge for the U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in a letter mailed yesterday to the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee.
The attorney of Myra Hinman,
associate professor of English for 25
years, sent a letter by express mail
today to Sen. Strom Thurmond,
R.S.C., chairman of the committee.

Tacha was nominated for the position Oct. 30 by President Reagan. If confirmed by the Senate, she will be the second woman in history to be appointed to the 10th circuit bench.
The letter, written by Hinman's attorney, Fred W. Phelps Jr., Topea, said she opposed the nomination
Phelps said that Himman filed a sex discrimination suit against the University of Kansas and some faculty members in the late 1970s, before Tacha was appointed vice chancellor in 1981. The lawsuit, which is pending in the U.S. District Court in Topeka, criticizes KU employment policies. The suit includes promotion, recruiting and tenure deficiencies for women and other minorities.
Hinman said Tacha wasn't upholding an agreement signed by the University with the U.S. Department of Labor in 1982 that emphasized equal employment opportunities at KU.
Phelps said Tacha hires few minorities and underpays the ones who already work at the University.
"Myra feels that Deanell Tacha has been a full-time employee who has advanced because she was put

The firefighters take their lunch break from 11:30 a.m. to 1 o.p.m. in the day room at the station. The day room is really two rooms. One is kitchen with a stereo, microwave, two refrigerators, a large stove and
oven and a dining room table. The other is a carpeted living room with a couch, lounge chairs, a television and a video recorder.
During lunch, most of them fix their food and eat at an oval dining room table, talking and listening to the stereo. Many of them also watch "All My Children" on the television.
After a morning of drills and an afternoon of checking hydrants, inspecting businesses and educating the public, the firefighters spend an hour, from 3:30 p.m. to 5:40 p.m., jogging, riding a stationary bicycle or doing other aerobic exercise. Diagnose

Burke said firefighters worked at least an eight-hour day. Sometimes they also practice night drills and attend classes, lengthening their work day by up to eight more hours.
Often studying or other tasks take longer than anticipated because they are interrupted by a fire alarm.
"When that fire alarm goes off!" Crossman said, "everything is to change. You can't have a set schedule."
