Heroine,scholar receive honors in ROTC formal
Bv SHANE A. HILLS
Staff writer
Kendra Melntosh, a cadet in the KU Air Force ROTC, this week proudly wore the Silver Valor medal for lifesaving — the highest honor bestowed upon any KURO cadet.
McIntosh, Mission senior, was babysitting in Prairie Village last year when an infant under her care started to choke on food. McIntosh performed the Heimlich maneuver and saved the child's life.
McIntosh shared the limelight Tuesday afternoon with Joe Katzuzienski, Chicago senior and KU Air Force ROTC cadet, who received two $1,000 scholarships at Wesco Hall.
Lt. Col. Phillip Litts, KU Air Force ROTC commander, presented the honors to MeIntosh and Katuzienski. Air Force ROTC cadets, wearing their formal blue uniforms, filled the auditorium.
Litts said McIntosh and Katuzienski were both outstanding cadets who had been selected to begin pilot's training after they graduated.
"Kendra is one of 25 female cadets from her graduating class nation-wide who have been selected for pilot training," Litts said. "Her medal is the highest held by any cadet at KU."
"She didn't even know we were trying to get the medal approved for her. But she performed a voluntary act of heroism, and the general approved a medal in a very short amount of time he said.
The United States Automobile Association provided a $1,000 scholarship to Katzienski for scoring well on the pilot and navigational sections of the Air Force Officer Qualification Test. The USSA also based the scholarship award on Katzienski's grades as an aerospace engineering student, and on his performance in boot camp.
He also received a $1,000 scholarship in memory of Virgil I. "Gus" Grissom, an astronaut who died in the Apollo I explosion at Canaveral in 1967.
"No KU cadet has ever won both of these scholarships in one year, or in all his time here."
GOP loses a House seat Democrats increase majority in Congress
United Press International
WASHINGTON — Democrats took over a Maryland GOP House seat yesterday and Republicans retained a New York seat, but two other races were in the hands of the tally clerks checking election-night figures and absentee ballots.
By yesterday afternoon Democrats had won 258 seats, a net gain of five over the 253-182 edge they held going into the election. A total of 218 is necessary for control of the House. Republicans had won 175 seats and led in the two outstanding races.
Left too close to call were challenges to incumbent Republicans in North Carolina and Minnesota
In North Carolina, incumbent freshman Republican J. Howard Colebove sweated out an 81-vote edge on former Rep. Robin Britt while figures were tallied again in the 6th District. Election officials said they would not complete their counting before today. The loser after an

official tally at the local level was expected to seek a recount.
The North Carolina race was in a district that jumped into the GOP column in 1980, went Democratic with Britt's election in 1982, and reverted to the GOP with Coble's in 1984 victory.
in Maryland, former basketball player Tom McMillen, a Democrat, took a narrow 4th District victory over Republican Robert Neall for an open Republican seat when absentee ballots expanded his margin.
In Minnesota, five-term Rep. Arlan Stangeland held a slim edge on Democratic challenger Collin Peterson in the 7th District, but final county canvassing was not expected to be completed until today. Peterson's campaign said a decision on seeking a recount would await those figures.
And in New York, Republican Rep. George Wortley added to his slight election-night edge with absentee ballots winning the 27th District race against Democrat Rosemary Pooler.

Joggers willing to face cold
Bv COLLEEN SIERES
One glance along Jayhawk Boulevard at dusk will confirm that wintry November winds have not driven many joggers indoors.
Every evening the traffic along campus progresses in a stop-and-go fashion to accommodate the devoted athletes.
But Bob Timmons, head Mens' Track coach, said runners who insisted on exercising in the gym during their training.
Joggers are more likely to experience pulled muscles, cramps and frostbite in extremely cold weather, he said.
Because cold weather increases the demands on pulmonary circulation by as much as 30 percent, the body expends more energy to keep itself warm.
If runners do not stay sufficiently warm, their bodies will stiffen and become more
stiff.
Cooling off too quickly is also dangerous. To avoid this, runners should slow their pace to a brisk walk and slowly cool down indoors, he said.
To promote good circulation and flexible muscles, Timmons recommends a mild warm-up and stretch before hitting the streets. Runners should begin at a slow rate and gradually
increase their speed, he said.
Timmons stressed wearing clothes loose and protecting the extremities with socks and mittens. Runners should also wear winter running shoes that grip the ice and snow to reduce the risk of falling, he said.
Timmons suggested layering cotton clothing because keeping muscles warm will reduce the risk of a pulled muscle. Cotton will allow proper ventilation and retain the body heat expelled through exercise, he said.
To minimize falling, he suggested using Pam, a non-stick cooking spray that joggers can use on the soles of their shoes.
Timmons also warned cold-wather runners to drink lots of liquids during exercise. Many runners make the mistake of not drinking enough because they don't feel thirsty.
Dehydration can lead to cramps and upset stomachs.
