Early flu vaccinations urged by physician
Students should get flu vaccinations before the end of October, Martin Wollmann, director of the student health service, said yesterday.
Vaccination may not always prevent the fish said, but it will make the illness mild.
The health service has enough vaccine for 1,000 doses and may obtain more vaccine.
The U.S. Public Health Service urges
vaccination to get vaccination right, Wollman said.
The "high risk group" comprises people of 65 years and older and people of all ages who have chronic diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes or emphysema, kidney disease and diabetes.
The National Center for Disease Control in Atlanta said that the flu virus would strike in the United States this winter and that several cases had already been reported in Mississippi. Other outbreaks have been reported, Australia, the Far East and South America.
Wollmann said the virus was Type A—Port Chalmers, so named because it was first isolated in Port Chalmers, New Zealand. The Port Chalmers strain is similar to Type A-England, which struck in 1972.
He said the U.S. Public Health Service had the foresight a month ago to include protection against both types in all vaccine manufactured since then.
Vaccine at the student health service will be effective against both types, Wollmann and
A single vaccination received now should be effective through January 1975, which he said is about half of the vaccine's life span.
Wollmann warned that people with allergies to eggs or egg products shouldn't use the vaccine because it was prepared in an egg base and that people with an acte respiratory infection should postpone vaccination.

UMKC debate stars biologist
Barry Commoner, biologist, will participate in environmental debates at 8 p.m. Oct. 10 and 11 in Pearson Hall at the University of Missouri at Kansas City.
The first debate will be with a spokesman for the American Petroleum Institute, and the second with Lynn Draper, nuclear scientist from the University of Texas.

effects from the vaccine, which is improved every year, Wollmann said.
In 1973, for example, no more than 2 percent of those who received vaccine had any reaction. And those reactions ranged from headache to one day's discomfort," be said.
Influenza viruses can produce respiratory

He advised those who were not vaccinated to eat a balanced diet, and get process good.
"Covering the mouth when sneezing or coughing is the best preventive measure," he said.
Wollmann didn't predict when or whether fu would strike here. Predictions about the strength and time schedule of viruses are educated guesses at best, he said.
Flu vaccinations are free to students who paid full fees, and the choice of 20.
Vaccinations are available during regular clinic hours: 8-11:30 a.m. and 24-10:30 p.m.
Monday through Friday, and 8-11:30 a.m. Saturday.
He recommended that patients tell the clerk upon arrival that they want the flu vaccine.
Political cynicism may be at an all-time high this year, but one University of Kansas student says participation from within government is vitally important.

"Working from the outside, trying to effect change has limited success. I have a lot of questions about a citizen effecting any positive change," Gray Bumelain, Prairie Village junior and Democratic candidate for state legislative in Kansas '21st District, said yesterday.
Bumental's Republican opponent is Bob McCrum, former marjor of Prairie Village.
Blumenthal, who commutes from his district, which is in Johnson County, to Lawrence three days a week, isn't a newcomer to politics. In 1972 he campaigned for state representative in the 21st District and became president. He said he thought his age hurt his campaign. Now 20, Blumenthal said he didn't think his age be an issue.
"One would assume that because of my sage, it would be a detriment, but it isn't in my interest."
Film, crusade pay cleanup
Student enters political ring
"It's more of a positive factor than anything else," he said.
His campaign has emphasized personal contact, he said.
The Bill Glass Crusade, which also required additional cleanup personnel during its eight day stay at Allen Fieldhouse, set up a special checking account to pay Building and Grounds employees, said Harry Buchholz, director.
"Basically what I am doing is walking to door-corner as many people as we can find."
"I wouldn't really be accurate if I saan it was easy," he said. "But the limitations also have some sort of a positive effect. I realize what my limitations are and have to budget time in a much more efficient manner than I ever have before."
Bilentman said there were limitations placed on him because he was attending school and campaigning for state office at the same time.
Bumenthal, who walks about five miles a day campaigning, said he had visited 10 of the 14 precincts in his district and would visit the remaining four before election day.
Biumental then he first participated in a summer school in 1860 when he handed out leaflets for jobs.
"There's approximately 5,000 rooms,
I've been to 3,000," he said.
Additional money was paid for the cleanup of jahwak Boulevard and the
The University of Kansas has been reimbursed for more than $3,000 by the production company that recently finished "The movie 'Linda Lovelace for President.'"
"My family were rabid Kennedy fans and I remember going to kindergarten wearing buttons and being dragged door-to-door with my hand in a contributing Kennedy literature," he said.
Robert Foster, KU band director, has said that the film company had contributed $300 to the KU band fund for its unofficial participation in the shooting.
The majority of the money was paid to Parking and Security Department officers who worked 317 hours of overtime in conference rooms. The staff were paid $10 an hour on overtime.
He became especially active in politics in the 1972 presidential campaign when he campaigned for Sen. George McGovern, D-S.D.
Dary David, acting director of University relations, said yesterday that to his knowledge all the accounts had been paid in cash.
"I became very active at an intense level working in the McGovern campaign two years ago and was fortunate enough to win." Democratic National Convention, he said.
Blumenthal has been involved with Young Democrats and is serving his second term as governor. He also has served on various policy-leaning boards for the local and state Democratic party.

"I can't argue with people being cynical." Blumenthal said. We're hearing a lot from the incumbents and the candidates, but unfortunately this is the only time we hear from them.

"They think they are there for their own personal glory, not to serve the people."
Although his district has never been represented by a Democrat, the Kansas City Times wrote recently that he was an almost sure winner. Blumenthal isn't so sure.
"I'd like to know what source they were
using. I don't feel anyone is an 'almost sure' winner in this particular race, he said.
In less than a month Blurnenht's long campaign will be over. Depending on the election outcome, he will either enroll at the Kansas or serve in the Kansas Legislature.
"If I win, fine, I'll maintain an activus role in effecting positive changes in the Legislature, but I think people who lose elections also have an effect on their opponents and can effect some positive change."
