Commissioner defends students
Reporter
Students should be treated just like other students, Douglas County commissioner I. J. Schoenker.
Stoneback won the popularity of many KU students when he demonstrated against the Vietnam War in 1972, spoke out last October for the impachment of Richard Nixon and more recently, offered to let the promoters Eat festival have the festival on his land.
"I wanted the kids to have a place for their picnic and rock conert." Stoneback said. It was a shame that Vern Miller said it. After all, they bad all that food opened.
"Yes, there were drugs, but you don't close the University just because a few persons use drugs just as you don't stop them," she said. "The statutes are violated." Stoneback said.
He testified for the defense in the Big Eight hearings. When the judge ruled Big Eight couldn't住 at its original site, Stoneback suggested his land as a suburban park on the plains, and the festival site was chosen to federal property at Clinton Reserve.
Stoneback, 57, was elected to the county commission two years ago. The district he represents includes six rural precincts and the areas surrounding the University.
A resident of rural Douglas County, Stoneback grows corn and soybeans and raises 140 head of Black Angus cattle on his farm. The family owns eight apartment units in Lawrence.
"lost in my rural precincts," Stoneback in the student precincts. "I got as much as I could get."
Stoneback began his involvement with the peace movement by attending a meeting. He later was elected cochairman of the Lawrence Committee for Peace in Vietnam. He was one of a few people his age involved in the committee.
"It was mainly the University crowd," he said. "We couldn't get many older persons involved."
"I even marched at the Capitol in Topka. My brother-in-law, who was state chairman of the Democratic party at that time, thought I was a Communist for a while."
"We had a few businessmen who were involved, but they quit because it was hurting their business, but it couldn't hurt me. I made speeches and marche in
The first floor of the law center will have the county attorney's offices and six county and nine city courts.
The second floor will hold the county sheriff's department, the Lawrence police department, a jail, counseling rooms and an office for the director of court services, who will be in charge of rehabilitation programs.
The law center's basement will be used

The law center is being paid for with $2.8 million in bonds, $500,000 from Lawrence revenue-sharing funds and about $400,000 from a mill-levy building fund. The balance will come from Douglas County revenue-sharing funds. Heck said.
Planning for the law center started six years ago, Heck said. County voters turned down $4 million in bonds that would have helped them use all the city and county offices, he said.
Building to start in about 3 weeks on courthouse
Completion of the law center is set for the fall of 1976.
Construction will start in October on a $2.1 million Doughee County Law Enforcement contract.
After the law center opens, the old county jail, 111 and Massachusetts streets, will be torn down. Heck said. The present county house is in Chelsea, and the house county administrative departments.
The county commissioners then put together the plan now being used to pay for the new building.
The law center will house all judicial and law enforcement groups in Douglas County and Lawrence, Arthur Heck, county commissioner, said yesterday.
The police station, 745 Vermont, will be converted to city offices that are in the First National Bank, 9th and Massachusetts streets.
The law center will be a two-story building between 11th and 12th streets and New Hampshire and Rhode Island streets. We have entrances on the south and west sides.
Pollsters suffer as sources tire
The London Observer
People no longer want to answer their questions. Until recently, pollsters knocking on doors with clipboard and ballpoint in hand could expect to extract opinions from more than four-fifths of those they called on. They're not sure how the "completion figure" as pollsters call it, was normally 80-45 per cent of the target population.
LONDON-Citizens fed up with an apparently endless proliferation of opinion polls on every conceivable subject will run into a snag.
Today the figure is to 60-45 per cent,
in spite of three or four call-backs by

demonstrations, because I knew the war was wrong all along."
In May 1972, he opened up his house city and night and let students and townpeople call Washington D.C. at his expense to express their views of the war. The total bill for several days of calling came to about $300.
As a county commissioner, Stoneback is one of three men responsible for $ 8 million budget. He is outspoken and often disagrees with his colleagues.
"It's the first time I've ever known someone to disagree with the authority of the president." She Storkback said.
Panel to review libraries at KU
Saricks said he thought it would be advantageous to get some expert consultation before candidates for appointment to the University were brought to KU in mid-November.
Expert consultation for the evaluation of University of Kansas Libraries is being sought, Ambrose Saricks, vice chancellor for academic affairs, said yesterday.
The University Senate Libraries Committee has recommended six people of national reputation to lead the consulting firm, Smith, chairman of the committee, said.
Saricks said that negotiations were continuing with those recommended.
He said he hoped that a consulting team would visit KU before November, but the visit might have be delayed until next week. He mentioned with the schedules of the consultants.

"The way we build roads, we can't build more than two or three miles of blacktop road in a year with the funds we have," Stoneback said.
"Whenever we have a two-to-one vote, I'm always on the short end."
He is opposed to the four-lane Clinton parkway, said a two-lane highway way north of enough space.
Stoneback said roads, parks, medical care and law enforcement some of the victims.
H criticized the county's methods of road construction.
The improvement of county social services, such as the city-county mental health board, are accomplishments that Stoneback is proudest of. Stoneback said he proposed a county-funded day-care center, "but the other commissioners didn't do for it."
The county will be building roads around the reservoir and all the rural residents who thought their roads were going to be paved after the storm, another 10 years, according to Stoneback.
"It is awful in the summer time when the dust from the gravel roads blows into the dust from the buildings."
"School buses, farm machinery and trucks can't drive over many of the bridges in rural Douglas County because many of them are two- or three-limited on them," he said.
Stoneback said he would like the bridge bond proposal passed. The proposal allows for funding of the Kaw River Bridge and for 50 other county bridges.
Stoneback said the proposal would probably pass because the rural residents would vote to have their bridges replaced and the residents will vote for the Kaw River Bridge.
new city-county law-enforcement center. The voters had turned it down one and a half years earlier and Stoneback thought it might have been submitted to the people again.
Stoneback was initially opposed to the
Now that the center has been approved and plans are in the making Stoneback supports the building and thinks it will serve the needs of the county.
Merkover, of course," he said. He is also chairman of the National Fathers Association.
He agreed with rural constituents that the revenue sharing monies should have been used for other things.
He also said there should be more help for poor people.
He said, "It would be a more efficient government, I think."
Stoneback said there used to be differences between the county and the University but "the wounds have healed now and the two get along."
Looking toward the future, Stoneback said the city and county should get together to develop a project.
Stoneback also involved in Douglas County Democratic party activities.
