Students earn money selling MCI
By a Kansan reporter
When it comes to making money, some student entrepreneurs let other people's fingers do the walking. They are selling MCI long distance phones and reducing rates and making a commitment to their customer's long distance bills.
Dan Melchior, Topea seniary, has been selling the service since summer.
"I was selling cars this summer when a friend of mine told me about selling MCI," he said. "I'm always
looking for ways to make money, so I looked into it."
Melchior said he became a distributor for the Amway Corp. of Ada, Mich. in order to sell the service.
Bob Novosod, a spokesman for Amway, said an agreement last year between MCI and Amway added the long distance service to the list of goods and services Amway offered its customers.
He said distributors who sold MCI earned 1.2 percent commission on their customer's monthly phone bill
for two years plus an unspecified bonus for signing new customers.
"A college campus is the perfect place to sell the service." Novosod said. "We have reps at schools all over the country who are doing a land office business. Although they can choose to sell any of our products, they only want the MCI. We are very pleased with the response."
Melchior now has more than 150 customers and has set a goal of 500 for the semester.
KPL Gas Service employees will begin reporting to police suspicious activities and medical and fire emergencies that they witness in Lawrence, a company spokesman said last week.
KPL to report suspicious activity
The Lawrence Police, KPL and public school officials announced the initiation of the Safety Watch Reporting Program at a news conference Friday.
By a Kansan reporter
T. W. Mindruff, the spokesman, said the watch was an extension of a statewide program sponsored by KPL to help augment local neighborhood watch programs. It will visit schools to public schools and community organizations to inform people of the servicemen's new role.
"We have 60 linemen in 35 trucks on the street eight to 10 hours a day," he said. "That's a lot of
people who are ready to help. This program is designed to promote safety and crime prevention."
Mindruff said workers would radio emergency information to the KPL dispatcher, who would then call the police.
"Under no circumstances are we going to get involved with direct confrontations," Mindruff said. "This is only going to be a monitoring program."
