Beer Is a Many-Splendored Thing BY MORLEY JONES You can talk about your Château-en-Rupe du-Pape and you can talk about your Caymus Vineyards Napa Valley de Perdix.

You can talk on forever about your wines and your elegantly perfect 2-10 matira, and you can pruille tilt The U.S. is the largest producer of beer and related beverages (like ale, stout, etc — about which more lager) in the world, and one of the best producers of the beer. Each and one of us, statistically at least, drinks a pint or two of beer and such a year — and if you personally drink somewhat less, don't worry, because the guy next to you probably more than makes up your way of comparison. American per capita consumption of hard booze is only about two gallons a year, and wine consumption is slightly less than that — though it's increasingly apparent there was you're late in the face about your damned fancy-schmancy europaean soda water? let's settle on plain pot when all that yack-vac cakes dwell and you don't want to eat. The pot will reach for a good old fashioned beer morn a year, and wine consumption is slightly lower. Beer has been around for a long time and was whiskey since before there was beer. The first type of beer was even safe to drink. Beer was probably the first alcoholic beverage known to humankind. It was made as early as 5000 B.C. in Mesopotamia. You remember Mesopotamia — the Fertile Crescent, most productive agriculture of all, that well, most of what we grew in Mesopotamia was grown for all, that grain was used for making beer. Numismatics were written during this time. Humankind took it so seriously that he wrote codename condemnions people who sold watered-down brew Cars into his Code condaining people who sold wine to the Egyptians liked the idea of beer, and passed it along eventually to the Greeks, who were nice enough to tell the Romans about it. The Romans introduced it to what are now Germany and Great Britain, and look what they've done with it The light, medium-bitter style of beer that most of us are used to today was probably born 800 years ago or so in Gzheczeloslavia, at the Pilzer Urquell brewery in the town of Pilsen. (The firm is still in business today, and Pilzer Urquell is available in the U.S.) then bottled or canned or paled into tarses for a cold drink. You can also bottle water better from a barrel that it does from a container. This is what happens with the beer. Do gournets do a beer "tiny" answer? In answering these questions, it is good to remember first of all, that beer didn't always come in cans and bottles. When you bought one of the beer stores, they snorted something to the effect that putting beer in a bottle was like putting a kiss in the secko. He was a curious man, Mercken. What is beer, anewer you might well ask—besides made just that frothy stuff that tastes so good! Well beer is sort of like wine, except that it's made from grain instead of grapes. It starts out with a mixture of kinds of grain, usually heavy on the barley. The grain is allowed to *malt* — which means that the grain grows sprouts and the starches it contains becomes converted, through processes to sugar (which is necessary for fermentation). The grain is left in the wine, and the resulting liquid, called "wheel," is drained off like ice. Here, flavorings are added, the principle flavoring agent, the wheeler of wine is, is hot, which are blossoms of a vine related to the flour. The flavored mixture is cooked a bit longer, then the flavoring substances are removed, the mixture is cooled, and brewer's yeast is added. Now fermentation begins. To brew beer, a yeast is used which sticks to the bottom of the fermenting vat and causes it to be made with a kind of yeast which floats on the top of the vat, where we're at it; it might as well be mentioned that stout is also formed, and potter is soured fermentation to a higher degree of fermentation is finished, the beer is filtered, aged for a short time, and the beer can be cooled or loaded into barrels — mostly aluminium these days.

S and Michigan have devel- 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. James Denney, KU's director of police, said radar guns allowed police to clock speeders and other vehicles. AS and Michigan have develop radar units. Michigan has radar units that matches the radar's check the unit's accuracy. AS radar units in use after automatic lock feature. "They're invaluable." Denney said. "With radar you don't have to pace speeders or clock them with a stopwatch." And, Denyne said, "A stopwatch is not really fair to violators. There are too many human PACING NVOLVES driving alongside a car to clock its speed. That puts two cars barreling down the road at high speeds, he said. "I don't feel sorry for people who get caught by radar." It 'tin' *fair* to the rest of the community to use radar. 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 its use as evidence in court. Depending on the car's direction, the radar beam is bounced back either compressed or stretched. The car's speed is determined by the car's acceleration rate and the original beam and the bounced reflection. IN A 1978 speeding case in Florida, a Dade County judge refused to allow radar readings to be used as evidence. 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 radar to how 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 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 units, said he had never been upheld by Kansas courts Neither Elliott nor Denney could recall any speeding cases successfully challenging radar's accuracy in Kansas.
