LEVITS 501 JEANS SUCCESSFULLY UNIMPROVED FOR OVER 125 YEARS.
One day a man named Levi Strauss created the world's first blue denim jeans.
Then something really remarkable happened:
remarkable happened:
For over 125 years, we didn't improve them.
The authentic, original Levi's 501$^{\text{TM}}$ jeans you buy today are virtually identical to that very first pair.
Which means they're still rugged, comfortable, classic... and a bit odd.
Still guaranteed to shrink and fade.

And 3 or 4 inches too long in the legs.

A few more washings, and the fabric "breaks in" to become softer, lighter in color and even more comfortable.
They fit like no other jeans you'll ever own.
Yet overall, 501's*"remain as tough as nails. Which is why an old pair is more valuable to its owner than a new pair.
What's more.
With continued wearings, 501s™ actually adapt to your body proportions, forming a uniquely personal relationship between man and jeans.

KU Police Officer Kevin Johnson clocked the speed of passing traffic from his patrol car in front of Green Hall yesterday.

James Denney, KU's directors of police, said radar guns allowed police to clock speeders and stop them from running.
"They're invaluable," Denney said. "With radar you don't have to pace speeders or clock people."

And, Denney said. "A stopwatch is not really fair to violators. There are too many human

Police have used radar for the last 30 years to detect and identify speeding motorists. But a dilemma has surfaced recently about the efficacy of radar and in use as evidence in court.
IN A 1879 speeding case in Florida, a Dade County judge refused to allow radar readings to be used as evidence.
Judge Alfred Nesbitt found that radar alone was too unreliable to sustain a speeding conviction. He dismissed 80 radar cases after the defense produced evidence that showed police radar clocking a tree at 84 mph and a house at 30 mph.
radar is highly accurate." Greneker said. "And it is better than having a cigar-chumping sheriff tell you how far you were going."
The term radar comes from the phrase "radio detection and ranging." Radar guns operate on the Doppler effect by sending out a continuous radar beam with a specific modulation. The radar beam bounces off moving vehicles and back to an antenna.
Nesbitt threw the cases out because of the
Depending on the car's direction, the radar beam is bounced back either compressed or stretched. The car's speed is determined by the amount of bounce it receives from the original beam and the bounced reflection.
Stationary radar units emit only one radar signal. Moving-mode radar emits a low radar signal that monitors the patrol car's speed and a high signal that calculates the target vehicle's speed. The patrol car's speed is subtracted from the target vehicle's speed and then displayed.
In *e* report written after the tests, the bureau failed to adopt any official standards, but it did make several recommendations that states have used when setting their standards.
Some states have set up stringent controls on the manufacturing of radars and on the
IN 1977, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration conducted tests in conjunction with the National Bureau of Standards on two different models of radar units commonly used by the U.S. military.

officers to receive radar training before operating radar units.
Maj. Stuart Elliott of the Kansas Highway Patrol said that the state of Kansas did not require standards on radar usage, but that the Highway Patrol did.
The Highway Patrol requires its officers to go through 50 hours of training before operating radar units. The officers are taught how to use this tool to visually estimate the speed of vehicles.
*Regular officers have a considerable amount of training before we allow them to use radar.*
DENNEY SAID that all of KU's officers had been trained by a representative from Kustom Electronics, manufacturers of KU's only radar unit.
"I'm constantly amazed at police departments that get radar and don't train officers to use them."
Jerry Miller, customer services representative of Kustom Electronics of Chanute, one of the nation's two largest manufacturers of radar equipment, said the radar had never been upheld by Kansas courts.
Neither Elliott nor Denney could recall any speeding cases successfully challenging radar's accuracy in Kansas. Each said his department's incidents were above 90 percent in most trials involving radar.
