Area candidates voice differences at meeting
The usual political debate was absent from a public candidates meeting sponsored by the Lawrence League of Women Engineers or the Lawrence Education Association.
The program consisted of Douglas County candidates for state and county offices.
Five candidates from the county are running for state representative in the 43rd, 44th and 45th districts. Republican John Vogel is the unopposed incumbent for the 43rd district. The candidates for the 44th and 45th districts are Republican Paul Gray. Democrat Frances Kennedy and Republican Lloyd Buzzi are running in the 45th district.
All five candidates gave similar replies to the prepared question regarding control of land usage. They agreed that, though there was a need for state guidelines, local control must be maintained in decisions regarding the use of land.
Frank Gray, unopposed candidate for district judge, said he favored the adoption of the amendment on this fall's ballot which will override a collection of district judges by the governor.
He said this measure would take district judgeships out of the area of politics. Judges
StudEx to view additional funds
Supplemental budget allocations totalling $19,443 will be considered by Student Senate at its meeting at 6:30 p.m. in the Big Eight Room of the Kansas Union.
The Finance and Audit Committee had recommended allocations totaling $20,718, but StudEx last week trimmed $915 from the request, and $360 from the Soccer Club.
A total of $26,000 is available for supplemental allocations.
Also on the Student Senate agenda is a petition that would ask that a survey be implemented concerning classroom interest for distributing faculty pay raises.
A petition that would prohibit the release of student names from the directory to non-University agencies or groups will also be considered tonight.
Student Body President John Beisner is expected to announce appointments to the Health Service Advisory Board at tonight's Senate meeting.

Candidates for sheriff are Rex Johnson, incumbent Republican, and Virgil Foust, a Republican. A meeting because of his duties as sheriff, Foutsa said that a correctional officer should be appointed to work in the county jail. He said he would not look forward day to look after the needs of prisoners.
John Bingham, Democrat, and Pete Whitenight, Republican, are candidates for county commissioner. Bingham said there was a need for greater leadership in securing federal revenue-sharing money for the county. Whitenight said federal funds must be allocated properly. He cautioned that arbitrary allocation of federal funds.
Ruth Vernyck, Democrat, and Ethely Norman, Republican, are the candidates for county treasurer. Both emphasized the importance of an approach in the functions of that office.

In light of recent demands for new sources of energy, geologists from three states met here yesterday to explore ways to get at area coal and tar sand reserves.
The all-day conference held in Moore Hall was attended by geologists from Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and the United States Geological Survey in Denver.
Geologists dig for energy solution
"The coal and the tar sands are located in an area which overlaps the three states, so it made a good deal of sense to begin planning on how to study the coal and tar sands." In 1973, Hambleton, director of the Kansas Geological Survey, said yesterday.
Tar sand is a viscous oil mixed with sand that is too thick to be extracted by drilling.
Hambleton said one purpose of the conference was to determine how much was known of existing coal and tar sands deposits.
Charles Mankin, director of the Overseas Energy Agency, said unless additional energy sources were found, the United States would face an energy crisis much worse than that caused by Iran.
"The embargo caused serious problems
for the family. We must have some even
toucher times ahead."
Mankin said he didn't think additional coal resources would entirely solve the problem.
"If we don't have solar power by the 21st century, this country will be in serious trouble."
Because of President Ford's request that because of the plans to build coal, the dammed river has risky conditions.
Mankin said 95 per cent of okahama's electric power was generated by natural gas. The government is working on
According to Mankin, it will be almost impossible to obtain that much additional
increase the state's coal consumption from 2.5 million to 20 million tons.
Lawrence Brady, research associate at Kansas Geological Survey, said Kansas would also need to import coal from other states unless additional reserves are found.
The state has exported coal in the past, he said, but this year Kanausa will require 10 tons of coal to power its power plant.
Last year Kansas produced about 1.1 million tons of coal and burned nearly 1.3 million tons, he said. Most of the coal is mined in the southeast part of the state.
Missouri has the largest known coal reserves of the three states.
Hambleton said tar sands were found near old buried stream channels.
Developing the tar sands resources is considered by some geologists to be the best option for producing tar.
He said the problem was not only in finding where the stream channels were, but also in how to get the tar sands out of the ground once it had been located.

"All three states recognize the further need of more coal, and are being pressure to increase it."
Mankin called the environmental question 'very serious problem', but 'it was not very serious' (Koehler 1984).
