"It's all in the lead weight," Troy said, pointing to metal in the front of his plastic foam casing.
"That's the edge you get from serious planning," he said after his egg had landed intact. "Computer-aided
Ali Rezvani, Tehran, Iran, graduate student, dropped his egg in a deceivingly simple container — a plastic cottage cheese box with the lid taped on. He said he had prepared for the contest in 10 minutes.
"Inside are Styrofoam cups in different layers, so the egg cut through those," Rezvani explained. "I had detergent around the cups because it is very compressive."
Rezvani also was the only contestant who waited for the wind to wane before he dropped his egg.
Such thoroughness paid off. Rezvani won the grand prize, a Magnavox clock radio.
Colleen McKea, Lawrence senior and treasurer of the club, said the contest was a social success but a flop as a fundraiser.
The club, which has about 25 members, wanted to raise money for a field trip to Washington, D.C., this Christmas. McKea said
"Last December we had a field trip to Chicago," she said, "and we lost a couple of hundred dollars. It was pretty embarrassing. The department had to bail us out."

York. It was kind of a big deal," Finnigan said. "The only problem was that when people heard we were from Kansas, they started snickering.
"When they heard us play, they stopped snickering."
Finnigan, who now lives in the Los Angeles area, said he immediately agreed to play in the concert because he was sympathetic to the plight of the veterans.
He said he was ashamed of the way the Vietnam veterans had been treated.
"I try to help them, because it looks like nobody else will," he said. "I feel really badly that they've gotten such a dirty deal.
"All those government officials don't have any trouble sending them away, but they sure have trouble bringing them back."
The concert originally was going to take place in Allen Field House, but because of the low ticket sales, the concert promoters, student group Youth for Vietnam Veterans, moved the concert to Kansas City.

"We've talked to bar owners," Quincy said, "And according to Ken Wallace (owner of the Jayhawk Cafe) — he said it seems like an enforcement nightmare."

Both coalitions said that particular issues on the opponent's platform, if put into effect, would lead to a duplication of services that exist already.
Debate
Milligan questioned the need for a proposal, presented by Initiative's candidates, that would set up an office where housing options would be listed for students. Milligan said the office of residential programs had a similar service.
Bergman also said, "We've talked with ORP about this and they are thrilled we are taking this over."
On the other hand, Bergman and Quince said the Cheers candidates, if elected, would duplicate services with their plan for a no-interest, short-term loan program.
"When we talked to ORP, we found that their service was a nutshell of what we're doing." Quincy said, defending the program. "I don't feel they're doing anything comparable to our services."
Religious leaders argue validity of crucifixion
By COLLEEN SIEBES
Staff writer
About 300 Muslims and Christians gathered in the Kansas Union Ballroom last night to listen as leaders continued an age-old debate — whether Jesus Christ's crucifixion actually took place.
Ahmed Deedat, director of the Islamic Propaganda Center in South Africa, represented the Muslim position. Robert Douglas, director of the Zwimar Institution for Muslim Studies in Pasadena, Calif., an organization that converts Muslims to Christians, represented the Christian viewpoint.
The Muslim Student Association of Lawrence sponsored the debate.
Deedat called the Crucifixion an "alleged" event and argued that Jesus was never resurrected from the dead because he did not die.
After Jesus' supposed resurrection, he embraced the disciples, ate broilfish and honeycomb with them and asked them to feel the wounds in his hands and feet Deedat said.
"Resurrected bodies are spiritualized," he said.
But Douglas said, "People can be alive and spiritual."
Deedat also quoted words of Jesus in the Bible to defend his position: "For as Jonah was, so shall the son of man be."
In the Bible, Jonah was swatowed by a whale and survived inside the whale's belly for three days and three nights.
Deedat argued that if Jesus was like Jonah, he must have been alive.
Douglas said the analogy Jesus made between his death and Jonah's predicament concerned their entombment, not whether they were dead or alive.
Deedat also argued that no eyewitnesses to the Crucifixion existed because the Bible said the Jews fled the place where Jesus hung on the cross before his moment of death.
Douglas said the claim was an assumption because the Bible did not say the Jesus fled and stayed away. Douglas said that Jesus' death was foreshadowed throughout the Old and New Testaments.
