college campus, I am sure most college students would say the same thing," du Pont said.
Du Pont said people already receiving Social Security should continue to get full benefits. But people moving into the work force would benefit from tax-free individual retirement accounts paid for by contributions from employers and employees, he said.
Du Pont said changes also were needed in the United States' system of elementary and secondary education because the system was not adequate to educate students in today's technological world. He said elementary and secondary schools would become better if they competed against one another for students. The government could create competition among schools by giving parents government-subsidized vouchers that pay for a child's education at any public or private school.
Du Pont said he thought he was the third or fourth most popular candidate in New Hampshire and Iowa but said he thought he would finish higher in the primaries in February. He said he was not concerned that he trailed Vice President George Bush and Senate Minority Leader Bob Dole in recent polls.
"One thing we know about the front-runner is that they always win. Ask President Muskie or President Dewey," du Pont said sarcastically.
Edmund Muskie, a former Democratic senator from Maine, was considered the front-runner for the 1972 Democratic nomination. The nomination went, however, to George McGovern, a senator from South Dakota. In 1948, Thomas Dewey, the Republican nominee for president, was expected to oust incumbent President Truman from office. Truman won that election.

tives. In cooperatives, parents trade babysitting time with other parents.
Vazquez said that she would rather take her child to a home than to a center but that most day care homes were like day care centers in that they didn't take infants. Also, homes are often booked up, so she has her friends babies, she said.
"I babysit my rear off in exchange for the same hours," she said. "But no one else has just one kid."
To pay back her friends, she babysits their children.
Next semester she can't use a friend who has been her main babiesitter because of schedule conflicts.
But John Tyler still won't qualify for most centers for most of next semester, she said.
Medical imaging unit to visit local hospital

Lawrence Memorial Hospital is one of the first hospitals in the area that will offer patients a way to look inside the body without using X-rays.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging can create two- and three-dimensional pictures of any part of the body. It can also create images of selected parts of the body with far more detail than an X-ray.
"The images MRI makes are as good as images you find in an anatomy textbook," said David Hielbert, specialist in radiology at the hospital.
The MRI equipment is in a semitrailer truck and will be at Lawrence Memorial every Wednesday. The hospital signed a three-year contract with Scientific Imaging of Farmington, Conn. Lawrence Memorial will
Hiebert said MRI could help diagnose head and spinal diseases, such as tumors. MRI also can be used to detect cancer of the uterus, ovaries and other organs, and to detect multiple sclerosis in its early stages. Blood flow can be measured, and the effects of plaque in the arteries can be seen.
share services with Asbury-Salina Regional Medical Center. MRI services will begin the first of the year, said Judith Hefley, director of community relations.
Hefley said that buying MRI equipment and building the special facilities it requires would cost the hospital about $3 million.
“这 gives us access to technology we certainly didn't have before.” Hefley said. “We can offer patients a service so that they don't have to go out-of-town.”
Hiebert said 60 percent of the hospital's patients went to Topeka for this service and 40 percent went to Kansas City.
Hiebert said the main disadvantage of MRI was its cost. An MRI examination at Lawrence Memorial costs $780 plus professional fees.
Walter McClellan, chief technician with Scientific Imaging, said employees would be trained in safety measures around the equipment. He said the magnetic field was extremely strong.
Because of the strong magnetic force, a parameter built 20 feet from the truck is fenced off and warning signs are posted.

A MESSAGE TO OUR COLLEAGUES from the
K.U. INDEPENDENT FACULTY
Please consider the following important questions as you decide how you will vote in the upcoming bargaining election:
1. Will unionization significantly improve the salaries and benefits of K.U. faculty? We believe that it will not
We believe that it will not.
2. Will unionization adversely affect collegial relations and university governance? We believe that it will
3. Will unionization adversely affect the ability of the university to generate critically needed private and public support?
We believe that it will.
4. Have the faculties of other major research universities adopted collective bargaining?
No Big 8,Big 10 or K.U. peer group university and only 1 out of 54 of the prestigiuos A.A.U. universities is unionized.
e believe the choice is clear.
5. Will unionization increase the bureaucracy within the university?
Please consider your own answers to these questions and join us in voting for "NO REPRESENTATION" on Nov. 17/18.
Without question, the answer is yes.
