Diary: 1941 revisited with journal
Lloyd Sponholtz, associate professor of history, flips through his mother's diary with entries detailing the incidents of Pearl Harbor. Sponholtz has used the diary numerous times as part of a teaching tool for his classes.
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
He came to Kansas in 1967 to teach history. He has taught at Harvard, Stanford, California-Berkley and Johns Hopkins. But his love for Lawrence always brought him back to the University. Today Tuttle is a professor of American Studies.
The first chapter of his 1993 book, *Daddy's Gone to War*, which centers on how children grappled with psychological problems during World War II is called "Pearl Harbor: Fears and Nightmares."
"After Pearl Harbor, there was an effort by the federal government not to send out a lot of gory images to the American homefront," Tuttle said from his Old West Lawrence home. "We only had a radio, so kids didn't know what to see."
When gathering information on Pearl Harbor for his book, Tuttle was mesmerized by the behavior of parents. They would plant stereotypes in the minds of youth — screaming out anti-Japanese comments and sabotaging their kids' favorite toys that were made in Japan.
But it was not just how the parents treated the children that interested Turtle; it was how they reacted themselves—how vulnerable they allowed themselves to become and how men removed the mask.
more intense. "Fathers cried when they heard the news," Tuttle said. "They may have seen mother cry, but they had never seen dad cry. Men realized the importance of this attack and realized that their lives would never be the same again."
One little girl wrote Tuttle and said that her birthday was on Dec. 7. She was looking forward to her birthday party that afternoon. She realized that something was wrong. When she asked her mother, she slapped her daughter across the face.

"That was a shock," Tuttle said. "She really didn't have a birthday that year."

Tuttle said he received 2,500

World War II experience.

May Our Heavenly Father hold his protecting arm over all of us, military and civilian, and in His Mercy grant us victory.

Sponholtz said he regretted not talking to his class on
the Friday after Sept. 11. Today, as a way to commemorate history and an important part of his life, he will use his mother's diary in his American business history class.
It was what his mother would have wanted.

Fraternity charter shows hard work
By Jeremy Clarkson Kansan staff writer
To the original members of the fraternity, the charter means so much more. It symbolizes the feeling of accomplishment of the hard work to establish a new fraternity on campus and to establish new traditions, they said.
When the 65 members of Pi Kappa Phi fraternity receive their charter this weekend, they will earn national recognition and voting rights in the Interfraternity Council.
The fraternity was established at the University of Kansas in February 2000, with 38 original members, including Josh Kroopf, vice-president of Pi Kappa Phi.
Kropf, Leawood junior, said recruiters from the national chapter came and recruited students, then they organized a retreat for the interested members. He said once the fraternity was established, the original members had to work hard on creating a constitution, mission statement and bylaws.
"We had to establish all of our tradi.
Since the fraternity began, the members have faced a number of difficulties and challenges. Jake Albers, president of Pi Kappa Phi, said he and fellow members entered the fraternity with no prior knowledge of what was ahead of them.
Albers, Lawrence junior, said organization and communication among the members proved difficult at times, and establishing themselves on a campus with a strong Greek system was a challenge.
"There are so many fraternities already with their roots so strongly grounded," he said.

"Most people come into traditions that have been set up for them, and we've established our traditions that will be held for years to come," he said.
Kropf said he liked the idea of creating traditions for his fraternity, which will be around for a long time, making this weekend's recognition exciting.

Drunken-driving display reaches out to students
By Luke Daley Kansan staff writer
Brian Carpenter was a freshman when he met Shyra McGee in his residence hall. Four years later, she was killed by a drunken driver.
Carpenter, Overland Park senior. now wants to honor his friend by changing the way students think about drunken driving.
He and other students from a COMS 342, "Problem-Solving in Teams and Groups," decided to bring together several organizations that deal with drunken driving. The forum met yesterday at the fourth-floor lobby in the Kansas Union to promote drunken-driving awareness to students at the University of Kansas.
Kansas.
The "Tired of Drunk Driving Memorial Wall" was one of the ways Carpenter and his classmates tried to illustrate how harmful drunken driving can be. Pictures and stories of people killed in drunken-driving accidents nationwide covered the mound of used tires.
One story featured a man named Jon "M.J." Vigneron, a 48-year-old employee for Kansas Power and Light in Topeka, who died after being hit by a drunken driver in 1999. He died on his 28th wedding anniversary.
Some of the groups at the event
included Mothers Against Drunk Driving, the Kansas Department of Transportation, Kansas Family Partnership and KU SafeRide.
Carissa Wheat, Allen senior and student in the communications class, said the memorial was created to cause students to think twice before drinking and driving.
"We just thought there wasn't anything to honor the people who have died from drunk driving, and we wanted to create something that did," she said. "Because of drunk driving, people's lives can change forever."
forever. Anthony Farinacci, Naperville, Ill., senior, stopped by to check out the tire memorial. He said the display stood out and was powerful.
and was powered.
Mike Appleby, KU on Wheels director, attended the forum and provided information about the KU SafeRide program, a transportation system that provides students with an alternative to driving home drunk.
Driving home drunk.
He said that many students didn't know about SafeRide, and he wanted them to know that the service was available. Students can call SafeRide at 864-7233.

FBI broadens investigation against Kansas pharmacy
KANSAS CITY. Mo. — The FBI is expanding its drug-dilution investigation at a Kansas pharmacy because the latest drug alleged to be weakened is so different from those found earlier, said representative Jeff Lanza.
representative law firm. Pharmacist Robert R. Courtney is charged with diluting the cancer drugs Gemzar and Taxol at his Research Medical Tower Pharmacy in Kansas City. Tests released Tuesday showed two samples of the fertility drug progesterone from his Merriam pharmacy had been watered down, the FBI said.
sau. Lanza would not say how many new samples agents have taken from Courtney's Kansas pharmacy. He said agents were still working through a list of 250 new callers to the FBI's hotline.
"Anything available for testing that could have been altered, we're interested in having tests taken on." Lanza said.
He has said the federal Food and Drug Administration, which tested the progesterone, is already testing other drugs taken from the Kansas store, called Courtney's Pharmacy. Test results are pending on some drugs taken from the Missouri store as well.
Courtney has been held without
bond since his arrest on Aug 15
He was later indicted on 20 federal counts of tampering, adulterating and misbranding the chemotherapy drugs that a Kansas City physician prescribed for her patients. He has pleaded not guilty and is scheduled for trial in March.
No one has been charged or taken into custody for the latest alleged dilutions. The FBI is investigating whether someone besides Courtney allegedly weakened those medications because the millionaire druggist spent little time at the Kansas store, Lanza said.
at the Kaiser Cancer Center.
Progesterone is a relatively inexpensive drug. Lanza said, while Gemzar and Taxol are both expensive.
The government says Courtney confessed that he diluted the chemotherapy drugs so he could pocket the difference in price.
courtney owed more than $600,000 in taxes and $350,000 on a pledge to his church, according to court papers filed Monday.
Investigators have also turned up suspicious or low-potency samples of Paraplatin, Platinol, Procrit, Neupogen, Roferon and Zofran, according to court records released last week.
Olathe officer shot in jaw
The Associated Press
OLATHE — A fugitive murder suspect from Washington state has been charged with attempted first-degree murder after a shootout with Overland Park police, authorities said.
Park police, auditor, state Sgt. Robert Kolenda was shot in the jaw Tuesday while trying to arrest David Grant Peterson. Peterson was charged with attempted first-degree murder and a second count of a felon in possession of a firearm yesterday in Johnson County District Court.
Peterson was in serious condition with wounds in his chest, wrists and buttocks. Kolenda was in good condition.
Authorities in Washington state had been seeking Peterson, 30, since Oct. 12 when, detectives said, he fatally shot
a man who was visiting Peterson's estranged wife in the Seattle suburb of Skyway. He is charged with murder in a King County, Wash., arrest warrant.
King County authorities yesterday were preparing to extradite Peterson, said King County prosecutor spokesman Dan Donohoe.
Overland Park police came across Peterson's trail Tuesday evening while they were investigating a credit card and check fraud ring. While staking out an apartment of the fraud suspect, police learned the suspect might be traveling with Peterson, they said.
When Kolenda tried to stop the men as they arrived at the apartment, Peterson shot the officer in the jaw, and the sergeant fired seven shots, police said. Peterson was hit by three bullets.
