William Egidy, Greely, a really participant, is concerned because he cannot get insurance for members of his family. He says that insurance companies will not give him a policy because he lives 30 miles from the Wolf Creek nuclear reactor.
KaU called nuclear power "an unfinished technology." He said that it could not replace oil and that because the United States only used 10 percent of its oil in the production of electricity, it would not really help in the energy crunch. He called for a moratorium on nuclear power plant construction and for the gradual use of solar power.
he died 24 days later. Much of his skin had peeled off his bones, KaKu said.
Judith Johnshr, co-director of the Pennsylvania-based Environmental Coalition on Nuclear Power, said there was a lesson for residents toouri to learn from the Three Mile Island accident.
Johnsrud CRITICIZED THE Nuclear Regulatory Commission for setting guidelines that allowed accidents to reach critical proportions before the public must be notified. "By the time the regulations state that the public must be notified, they have already received dangerous amounts of radiation," Johnsrud said.
She said the reality of nuclear reactor accidents had been belittled by utilities that profit from the reactors, but the people of Three Mile Island had experienced that reality. She urged the group not to let a similar thing happen in Kansas.
The final speaker was Max McDowell, a freelance journalist from Elmdale. McDowell who formerly was with WIBW-FTV in Topeka, has spent the last 18 months research and writing about the possibility of U.S. Department of Energy plans to use an abandoned salt mine beneath Lyons as a high-level radioactive waste disposal site.
McDowell said the only way to stop the dump was to stop Wolf Creek.
About 3 p.m., the Alliance released about 1400 red, yellow and blue baloons to which postcards were attached. Jim Mason, press liaison for the group, said the purpose of the cards was to encourage people who found them to mail them back. The group could then trace the trail contamination might take in the event of a nuclear accident.

Students need to be aware of several important changes that have been made in the various policies and regulations.
Marvin Hall also is undergoing major renovation, its library has been divided between two groups.
MATERIALS DEALING WITH geology, mineralogy, paleontology and meteorology have been transferred from Marvin Hall to the Science Library, on the sixth floor of Malott.
Books on geography, urban planning and applied architecture now are in Watson Library.
Some materials formerly kept in Lippincott (Old Green) Hall also have been moved. Books on vertebrate zoology, natural history and entomology are held by Sept. 7 in the Science Library in Malotl.
All engineering materials are in transit from
the airport to the New Jersey Union, where they
will be lent on the first flight.
ANOTHER MAJOR CHANGE is the relocation of the art library, which is being moved from the third floor of Watson to the lower level of the Helen Foresman Spencer Museum of Art.
The entire art collection will be moved with the exception of materials covering the arts in general, landscape gardening and cinema. The target completion date for that project is Sent. 2.
For any additional information about the renovation or transfer of books, students should contact their school's library.

Chancellor

leadership of the University was of primary concern to the administration, Cole said. Academic programs were good, but the unrest caused by the lack of investment over the University an unfavorable public image.
Dykes helped change that image, Cole said, and now the University needs internal academic leadership to improve the quality of the University and "to reverse certain trends toward mediocrity that have shown themselves since 1969."
To begin improving KU programs, Cole said he would like to see a new chancellor who not only had the necessary administrative qualities, but also had come out of an academic setting.
"The new chancellor should be an experienced administrator from a major university comparable to or somewhat better than KU." Cole (2013) notes that the University is improving the excellence of the University.
"He or she should be experienced in academic administration and at the same time be one who is knowledgeable of current trends.
SHERR SAID the new chancellor should have a good set of academic values and should be vitally concerned with the day-to-day affairs of the University.
"I would like to see a new chancellor who has
an understanding of the academic mission of the University in both research and teaching and is concerned with seeing to it that he surrounds himself with people to enhance the quality of the university and to communicate the academic mission to the people of the state," he said.
Ralph Christoffersen, vice chancellor for academic affairs, said he thought the chancellor had to continue the public's confidence in public education that had developed in the past. He said the new chancellor would have to spend the time of his career to make sure he could communicate with others.
"He has to be a master at taking the message of the University to the general public, the Legislature, the Board of Regents and alumni," he said.
"It takes an incredible amount of energy to do the job."
Amber said, "The next chancellor is going to have people with many internal problems feeling in the '60s."
He said the chancellor would need to be skilled at academic management and would recognize the issues related to the progress and development of high quality education.
ANN EVERSOLE, DIRECTOR of student organizations and activities, said the new
chancellor would have to continue the University's academic reputation and should be conscious of this.
"The chancellor should support both academic and student affairs," Eversol said, "and be concerned about student development concepts out of the classrooms."
She said she hoped he would benefit students and organizations by helping to provide more for them.
that the middle student goes spat, 'she said. However, Kopf said students aren't the only people who need to be recognized by the new chancellor.
She said the University needed an administrator who would support the classified case.
"I hope the new chancellor will allow classified employees to accept the responsibility of being active members of the University community and contribute to the University community," she said.
Jan O'Neill, Classified Senate president, said that the group should be receptive to the various campus groups.
"the new chancelor should be a person
who will appear the time to lusted and who would
lend a sympathy to you."
