Buses to provide safe trip to concert
By J.R. Clairborne
Kansas staff writer
One month ago, Jon Humiston and nine of his friends bought tickets to the U2 concert but could not agree on who would drive. Now, no one has to drive.
Since Humiston, Hutchinson senior, is strongly against drinking and driving, he looked into the possibility of renting a bus so that they could go to Sunday's concert at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas city, Mo., and return safely.
“There are a lot of needless drunk drivers everywhere.” Humiston said. “At an event like this, there will be drinking. I thought I could help out by providing a safe alternative.”
This safe alternative is "The U2 Zoo TV Bus Trip and Tailgate Party," which will provide safe passage to and from the concert for up to 500 people.
Humistom has reserved 12 buses for the tailgate party, where KLZR 106 will be broadcasting before the 7:30 p.m. concert outside Aroadhead.
Buses will leave Memorial Stadium at 3 p.m. Sunday and will return after 1:30 a.m. Monday, he said. The tailgate party will be from 7 p.m.
I can that if I could provide transportation for a certain amount of people, it would ease my conscience," Humiston said.
The deadline for registration is midnight tonight. Humiston will be at Johnny's Tavern, 401 N. Second St., tonight to register people for the trip.
Tom Chalfant, Hutchinson senior, is one of the 10 friends whose argument started the idea.

To register for the bus trip and party, call Jon Humiston at 843-3681. Registration costs $15, which will cover expenses for transportation, sandwiches at the tailgate party and the service fee. A liability waiver must also be signed. Buses will leave from Memorial Stadium at 3 p.m. Sunday and return after 1:30 a.m. Monday. Deadline for registration is mid-night.

He said he would help with the registration and group seating arrangements on the buses so groups that sign up will be able to sit together
He is also helping with the cooler check in that allows those registered to bring beverages in a cooler and have them transported to the stadium in a separate truck. Alcohol is prohibited on the yellow school buses being used.
"That's the whole point, to let people enjoy themselves," he said. "If they want to drink, they can and still get home safely."

Lisa Miller, Brooklyn, N.Y., sophomore, said she thought the bus trip and tailgate party was an awesome idea because it allowed people to go to the concert with friends, meet new people and not have to worry about the troubles of parking or drinking and driving.
"It's just so much easier for people to just pile in a bus and go and have fun," she said.

KU libraries to sell books of all kinds
"As required by Kansas statute, the proceeds are used for the purchase of additional books and periodicals for the libraries," Miller said.
Books at Watson Library and Anschutz Science Library are for sale — books that people donated, but the libraries already had.
She said that she expected the sales to generate anywhere from $3,000 to $5,000. Bibliographers review the books to ensure that the library does not sell them if it needs them.
Watson is selling about 10,000 books, said Rachel Miller, head of the acquisitions department at Watson. Paperbacks cost 50 cents, and hardbacks cost $1 unless priced otherwise.
"If a book is donated to the library and is not added to the collection, it nevertheless benefits the library to sell that book and use the money." Miller said. "I think the most important thing for people to understand is that we are very concerned about the donors' wishes."
A surplus book sale began today and runs on selected days through Nov. 10. People can buy books on English and U.S. literature from 8 a.m. to p.m. on the second floor of Watson Library.
Because donors want the books to benefit the library, most are not offended that the library sells them or searches for another library that needs the book, Miller said. However, any donors not wanting a donated book to be sold can make arrangements
Watson will sell history and political science books Thursday, and Latin American books from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday.
Other dates of the sales are Oct. 21 for anthropology, psychology and sociology books; Oct. 22 for business and economics books; Oct. 28 for philosophy and religion books; Oct. 29 for German, French, Italian and classics books; Nov. 4 for art and architecture books and on Nov. 5 for all unsold books at reduced prices.
