KU Fulbright nominees announced
By BILL RAYNOLDS
Staff writer
twenty-five KU students and one KU alumnus have been recommended to the national screening committee for the Fulbright Award and other grants for Graduate Study Abroad.
KU's Fulbright Committee recommended them to the National Selection Committee for the 1987-88 academic year
"We've recommended a number of high-quality students to the national committee." Mary Elizabeth Gwin, KU director of study and founder of Fablur Committee chairman, said Sunday.
Four KU students received Fulbrights for this academic year, and 16 KU students have received Fulbrights since the program began at KU in the 1950-51 school year. George Duerksen, professor of music education and Fulbright Committee member, said yesterday.
Fulbright scholarships are U.S. government awards for research, teaching or graduate study
that seek to promote better understanding between the people of the United States and other
A committee comprised of KU faculty members chose the applicants based on academic achievement, references and a pro-graded final exam completed in one academic year. Gwin said.
J. William Fulbright, an Arkansas senator, began the scholarship program under the Fulbright Act of 1946.
About 709 Fulbrights will be awarded in the United States, and the award winners will be announced in the spring of 1987.

Slattery's aide says Kline was mistaken
By KAREN SAMELSON
Staff writer
U. S. Rep. Jim Slattery supported a budget that was $15 65 billion less than President Reagan's budget, despite his opponent's charge that he voted to exceed the president's budget by $16 billion, an aide to Slattery said recently in a letter.
Carol Duffy McDewall, Slattery's administrative aide, wrote a letter Friday to Phill Kline, the Republican candidate for the Kansas 2nd district seat in the U.S. House of Representatives, telling him that some of his statements about Slattery had been inaccurate or misleading.
In the letter, McDowell explained that the House rejected the president's proposed budget 312-12 in Kansas. He said Kansas defenders voted in favor of it.
Three bills on which Kline said Slattery outspent the president passed by large majorities, she said, and most of the other Kansas delegates also voted for the bills.
The three bills appropriated money for programs the president wanted to cut, including including AIDS research, drug abuse research, toxic waste cleanup, disaster relief and emergency preparedness and Amtrak train service.
Kline could not be reached for comment yesterday.
McDowell's letter also responded to Kline's charge that Slatter spent more from his office accounts than other Kansas congressmen. Kline said Slatter spent $79,704 in the 18 months ending June 30, 1986, compared with $717,803 spent by Dan Glickman, 4th District Democrat.
McDowell said Slatter's offices in Washington, D.C., and Topeka received and answered about 6,800 letters from constituents.
The 2nd District is diverse and, therefore, costly to represent, she said, noting that it includes rural
communities, nine colleges and universities, three Indian reservations, two military installations and two penitentiaries.
Slattery always has spent less than the legal allowable amount, she said.
Kline also has criticized Slattery for receiving a rating of 62 percent by the National Tax Limitation Committee.
McDowell responded, "In Washington, one can find a 'rating' to justify almost any position."
She said the committee had a reputation for supporting Republican positions.

University, Lawrence buy fire truck together
By PAM MILLER
The obstacle in the path of many students coming and going between classes near Wescool Hall yesterday more than just a big green fire engine.
It represents a spirit of cooperation between the Lawrence community and local organizations.
Staff writer
The truck is the Lawrence Fire Department's newest piece of equipment, a $300,000 piece of machinery with a ladder that extends to more than 100 feet, said Jim McSwain, Lawrence fire chief.
On both sides of the ladder is a decal of the Kansas Jayhawk and a message that says: "Protecting the Jayhawks."
The Kansas University Endowment Association donated $30,000 from housing funds to help pay for the truck, which is the first piece of equipment purchased by the city and the University to benefit both, said Buford Watson, Lawrence city manager.

The truck was on display from 10:30 a.m. until 1 p.m. yesterday on Wescoe Beach Several ad-
dresses were in stock from Strong Hall to view the truck.
"I think it's a very visible sign of the good relations between the University and the community," said David Amber, vice chancellor for student affairs.
McSainn said the new fire engine showed the cooperation between the two countries.
Drew Blossom, Topeka sophomore and president of the Association of University Residence Halls, said he was glad that someone was thinking of the students who live in residence halls.

Kenneth Stoner, director of student housing, said the University decided to help out because the residence halls were the main high-rise buildings in Lawrence.

Kansas must provide a decent living for its public servants.
That's why Jessie Branson worked successfully with other legislators to improve the salaries of state secretaries and clerks, to increase benefits for KU and public school teacher retirees and to create new possibilities for early retirement.
In the Kansas House, Jessie Branson is heard.
Vote Jessie again.
