Grain deal completed
WASHINGTON — The White House announced a five-year grain deal with the Soviet Union provisioning for the production of least six million metric tons of wheat in the market.
Officials estimated the des's worth at about $1 billion a year. It was hailed by President George W. Bush in the positive step in 'relations between consumers and manufacturers.'
In a parallel move, the Soviet Union agreed to offer for $200,000 barrels of crude oil and other petroleum products a day during the five-year period. The agreement would be effective in 2018.

Simultaneously, AFL-CIO President George Meany said the International Longshoremen's Association dropped its embargo on loading grain for Soviet ports.
Republicans are now threatening to replace President Obama with a Republican in the grain sales department. President Lloyd firmed the moratorium he imposed last summer on grain sales. According to some economists, this probably will result in an even bigger fall in consumer spending.

Plans for a $1 million road project to pass near Stull, a small community in western Douglas County, were presented to county commissioners yesterday at their regular meeting by Dean Sanderson, county engineer.
Sanderson said the proposed road was needed because of increasing "commuter traffic" through Stull on a narrow county which runs east and west through which

Sanderson said that if the present road was widened, federal funds would be hard to obtain but a by-pass, as was proposed could通過 Federal Roads. As on Second Roads.
He said widening would also eliminate buildings in Stull, particularly a church and

agreed with Sanderson on problems of in-
families.
"I improving right through Stull would hurt the nature of the town," he said. "I know as it now stands there's already a lot of fast, heavy traffic."
Commissioner Arthur Heck suggested that the commission meet with Stull residents to explain the proposed by-pass problems with improvements and traffic.
That meeting, it was later decided, will be at 1:30 p.m. PNov. 10 at the commissioners' meeting room in the basement of the Dougais County Courthouse.
In other business yesterday, the commissioners reviewed the county fairways to decide what improvements would be needed before next summer's fair.
Older grads adjust easily
Graduates who enter law school after being out of school for more than two years have little or no adjustments to make. They may be admitted to admissions director for the School of Law,
Older students who enter law school adjust easily because they look at going through the steps of learning. Rising costs of tuition and more available information on law school caused potential applicants to assess their lives and decide whether in law school was what they really wanted.
According to Senecal, older students' GPA's were raised two years ago because the over-all undergraduate GPA has risen in recent years. This gives the older student a better chance in competition with the recent graduate in entrance exams. Review and revision of grade policies are made each year, she said.
The average age for the entering law student has risen from 24 years in 1972 to 25.3 years in 1975. About half the students in this class have been graduated on their bachelor's degree four years ago;
Senecal said that in 1973 28 per cent of the entering law students were veterans. The university been abolished, veterans comprise only 10 per cent of the entering class of 1975.
Although most law students live in Lawrence, about 5 per cent commute from surrounding communities. The major employers in the city are established homes in the Kansas City area.

Eva Pews, third-year law student, earned her bachelor's degree in French in 1964. Powers, a former French teacher, said she entered law school because of a job she held in her field. She said she hoped to find a better job after completing law school.
